    Bearing advice please!

    Ta for the reply- been studying the manual, but it always looks simpler in a book! If you can shed any light on which bearing(s) it might be, I'd appreciate it. Guess otherwise I'll start ripping stuff apart and see what looks like it needs replacing....

    Bearing advice please!

    My Disco makes a whining noise when I'm driving (and I've not got a puppy stuck under the bonnet:D). It's a bearing, somewhere in the transmission. The whine seems to speed up with the wheel speed, not the engine speed, and the noise fades when coasting or going downhill. People have suggested...

    Hiya, interested in the front shocks if in good nick? Also, the window regs- are these the things which keep the rear windows shut?

    Newbie with lots of maintenance questions!

    I'm just getting used to my new Disco (bought yesterday) and very pleased I am too- however I've much to learn so hope some of you more knowledgeable people can spare a few minutes to help. I've bought a 1996 200tdi which seems sound, but I've no history at all and so I need to know what to...

    Back to the family....

    Hello everyone, Thought I'd say hello- just bought a bargain basement Disco 1 200tdi for the winter. I've had several Series IIs a long time ago, so it's good to be back. I'm sure I'll be on here lots for advice- never driven anything this modern before! The Disco looks pretty good- chassis...
