:D Yeah thats the better way of looking at it, but it was on when i got the car so god knows how long it has been "about to break" for lol Does the handbreak have a set of shoes, does it work in the same way as a drum brake, if so it might be for the shoes being worn out in that maybe, but the...

Its a bit like 32 but its amber and it hasnt got the exclamation mark in it and the two lines around it have a couple of splits in them! This is worrying me now cos its been on since i have had it when the handbreak is applied, and now its flickering whilst driving! So has no one else ever seen...

Hi Iv got a 1992 landrover discovery 200tdi. Just been doing a bit of light green laning, drove it through a shallow stream. On the way back the orange light with a circle and 2 or three lines on two both sides was flickering and then came on. I normally comes on when the handrbrake is on along...

Hi Didnt really know where to put this so here goes! What are the cooper s/t tyres like? Are they ok for green laning and genral ROAD use?

Yeah i agree, i would love to go with somebody that is experiance but its quite difficult finding people who are willing for a newbie to tag along and i dont really feel ready to go on any heavy off road bits yet as i would like to get a feel for whats the best way to drive off road as i havnt...

Hi I have just bought myself a 1992 disco 300tdi. Last night went for a bit of a drive and found a green lane, not too sure where it was. it was out knowle way It had a stream at the beggining and then went onto a very narrow rutted greenlane that was a bit "hardcore" for my first experiance, i...

Yeah it is a 300tdi, where can i get this RTV sealant and is it in a big tube like silicone? havnt really had it long enough to work out how much oil it is loosing, im having to gauge it off the works carpark as i have got a gravel drive which means i dont get a b*llockin for it leaking at home...

Hi Iv just bought a landrover discovery and it has a few oil leaks. Is it a big job to put a new sump gasket on it as it seems that that is the biggest leak area it has got. I havnt really had a chance to have a good look to see where it is coming from but the top of the engine is dry and my...

Mine has done 184,000 now and i hope its got a bit of life left in it. It leaks oil and is a little "loose" to drive, but it seems fine apart from that! I only got it yesterday so only time will tell what other issues it has!!!! haha

Thanks very much for all your help on this chaps! yeah insurance is a bit of a sticky situation as i am only 19. I have found that tescos is the cheapest for me even with all discounts taken into consideration. Anyway a quick update on the search for my disco............... IV bought one...

Yeah i have looked at 3 or 4 already but they havnt really been what im looking for. looked at one that the pillar between the two doors had pretty much corroded through, very scary! I do have some idea about them, i know they have rust issues and stuff. Is there any huge advantage between...
