    HELP!!! engine overheating - at the end of my tether!

    A good buying point for some, and only if serviced by the main dealer, no doubt it would be replaced when some part of the cooling system part is replaced I expect at £xxx including a alloy radiator comes to mind. Well the company Honda Civic I drive now now and again has a 10 OAT coolant life...

    HELP!!! engine overheating - at the end of my tether!

    Regular changing the coolant every year would have helped back then, instead of plain water for the summer and then fill with antifreeze for the winter months… much as winter grade the summer grade oil, as I remember 🤔 RR coolant was changed every 2years at the LR service with their green yell...

    HELP!!! engine overheating - at the end of my tether!

    The OP have a has a disco 1 and the engine cooling system is closed circuit therefore no “outflow hose“ I assume that you are referring to an over flow hose that was once fitted the top of the coolant reservoir or rad header tank, so not fitted now also the system is vented via the valves...

    Advice on Leaky Swivels

    Like a lot of car parts, something is fitted new in the later life of a vehicle model and then they introduce a new model so completely different. It appears from what was stated years ago in the LR magazines there was a shortage of Teflon swivels for a time, but Chrome was still available and...

    Advice on Leaky Swivels

    Just look a the swivel ball, if Chrome its oil plus a fill, drain and if your lucky a lever plug. If Teflon its grease with just a fill plug…simples… but it appears that its not well known. ☹️

    Discovery II - Tyre Comparison

    I suppose its where you are in the UK that when the temperature drops below 7c you then feel the need to switch to winter grade tyre, also if you go off road frequently and need a more aggressive tread patten tyre. It’s your choice, As for summer / winter tyres as for me its a relatively...

    D1 intermittent wipers don't work

    Yes it does, so good call as the power supply from the wiper switch to the wiper motor is direct for normal and fast speeds.

    Discovery 1 95 model FPR hose

    Ok, black smoke coming out of the exhaust tail pipe is a good sign of over fuelling. Hopefully it will then be back to as it should be with the pedal to the metal acceleration. 😀

    Discovery 1 95 model FPR hose

    Well what it does, it ensures that fuel rail pressure is maintained at a constant pressure difference of 2.5bar above that of the manifold. When pressure exceeds the regulator setting excess fuel is returned to the fuel tank. So it seems that isn't happing so replace the hose.
