One for @sierrafery if you could please mate! Ive just picked up a commercial 300tdi disco and the seller advised me the gauge had got lazy and was just reading empty (with light illuminated) clocks were all cracked up on the plastic so changed with a good spare. So far I have: Checked the...

You did indeed mate I just don’t see how I’d be able to get it booted up if mechanic couldn’t. I don’t have the space yet either annoyingly. Thibk you’ll scrap them both then?

I wanna see his draws!!!

I have one already but would love to make the pair. They have the discovery logo on with a white and green stripe on the right shoulder. Someone must have one kicking about 🙏

I do but it’s going to get out of hand too fast as I’d be doing a MS top hat build and it would get daft. I’ve just picked up a 3 door commercial that I’m absolutely chuffed with too!! I’m going to use it as my general snotter vehicle and try and look after my pickup a bit better!!! Atleast...

So when are we having the giant meet up at broke agains discos. Everyone donate a tool from their toolbox and a bottle and the winner who gets it started wins the lot 😂

I couldn’t bloody afford to do a degree as had to pay the rent 😂.

I tried not to respond to this but keep coming back. I did similar to Phil - left 17 and went and worked on site away in digs. Fortunate enough to have had old school foreman and management. Spent all my 20s then living out a bag. Lost mates during Afghan times which made me push hard to live...

Sounds like it’s getting you down and if that’s so just get it out your life and cut your losses. I’ve got two d1s one is full resto and ones an old commercial. Sometimes, which is quite rarely I find the project overwhelming but most of the time I can’t wait to get tinkering. I love it, love...

Yeah pretty sure they rot just as bad as discos on the body. OP you need to write down a tick list instead of thoughts and ideas banging around your head. My head does the same! Start at the beginning and get the facts so you know what your dealing with. Have you got compression, is engine...

So what were the compression test results?!

Had a search with your name and ‘seat’ to no avail!!

It’s a thermostat not a thermistor. Just incase anyone has same trouble I’ll put in keywords and link! Heated seat thermostat wiring element https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204609321198

Thanks! Is he still about? He will have the answer or probably 17 of them in his bedside draw 😂

I’ve stripped my heated seat for the d1 and have found that the thermistor (I think it’s called this?!) may be dud. I think this as I get get continuity through the heated seat element (and it heats when connected to a battery) but I don’t get any continuity through this component, the d1 heated...

Thanks!!! I’ll get it drawn up!

I thought you had to almost build your own setup but this madman setup that D1nut linked looks the absolute bollocks. This is a kit here with everything in the box to do what you want and more! @D1Nut - you just cost me more money!!! 😂 https://shopglobal.madmandevelopments.com/products/lr300

The Aussies swear by this mad man jobbie - didn’t realise you could get in uk - thanks for link 👍🏻 Your new head was prob amc from turners then. I’ve just bought another commercial with 270k on, my 5 door had 240 but is getting a fresh build but even at 240 the big ends showed little wear!!
