Thanks for the advice, what about asking the local garage to loosen it a bit and then carefully drive it home?

Thanks Difflock - had a quick look on youtube and they showed the stake nut being undone with the wheel on and the centre boss of the wheel removed so the 32mm (?) socket went through the centre of the wheel. I've only got 65 kg to stand on the bar with so will try using the trolley jack on the...

Thanks DJ, did you replace them yourself or take it to a garage?

That's good to hear - I've used JGS before and was quite happy with them. I'm going to give my local indy dealer a chance to quote on Monday but unless he comes in with a good price will probably go with JGS and take the plunge to do it myself.

Thanks Peter I'm probably being a bit twitchy and asking too many questions but do either of these look reasonable? LR Trade JGS 4x4 They're both around £65 which is a good deal cheaper than the £150 OEM parts.

Nice one, thanks Dieseldog Best price I've found so far for OEM is around £154

I need to replace the front wheel hub on my Disco 2 - it's gone from an "occasional grumble" to a "don't drive me" noise. I've had a search and checked out the Discovery 2 site; biggest challenge seems to be undoing the drive shaft nut, and deciding whether to go for an OEM part or after market...

Decided that I need a new front hub as the existing one is grumbling too loudly to ignore. Went from a little rumble every now and again to a "can't drive it" noise!

Got your pm - don't think I can help having read the above post. Suggest you have a search for a recent link to a Rave download, hopefully someone will be along in a bit with an up to date link

Have a look at this Fred - I used OEM parts and have had no problems despite lots of heavy towing.

If you can avoid opening the window until you the time to fix it you stand a better chance of getting the regulator mechanism welded up before it breaks completely and becomes more difficult to align properly. Failing that it sounds like a new one may be needed.

Glad you got it shut. If it is a mechanical rather than an electrical problem this fred might help when you get round to it. I tried welding mine to repair it but it didn't last (poor welding). On the advice of my local indy garage I ended up replacing the regulator mechanism with a genuine...

Any whirring and clicking from the window regulator mechanism? If so it could be the window lift mechanism that's given up the ghost. When mine went I took the door card off and wedged the window in the up position to get me home: 1. Remove 2 screws securing hand rail to door. 2. Remove...

Add me please: Location: Ruislip, Middlesex Diagnostic kit: None Tools: Basic tools, trolley jack, tow rope (Grassy fields OK but no muddy stuff) Access to horse trailer Tea and somewhere to park up if needed Radius: 15 miles, maybe more if you're really stuck Parts: Good local...

This fred might help - I got a garage to press the new ones in

Sounds very similar to the leak I had - Have you checked out the link in post #3?

Could be worth checking the oil feed to the vacuum pump? See this fred

Had a quick google and found this one clicky :)

If, when you rock the vehicle from side to side by holding the gutter or roof bars, you hear a clunking / knocking sound the watts linkage could need sorting. Have a look at this fred
