10 quid extra for orange .. Head gasket, I just did that with out too many issues, make sure you get the locating dowels because much to my annoyance they do not come in the "complete" gasket set . grrrr ... take the chance to change the thermostat and clean out the intercooler, I also replaced...

Hi Kev, Tuff Rok https://www.tuff-rok.com/product-page/discovery-2-heavy-duty-shock-absorber-turrets-pair-yellow these ones

My own reply .. fixed it .. took it for a longer drive, swapped the wires over, checked the plugs were properly seating and gave it a little contact spray treatment and WOOSH! They were gone happy days next job front shocks and towers .. stay tuned Simon

Morning folks, so I changed both front hubs and the ABS wires on the new ones are black and white but with no plugs. I striped back the old plugs and both wires are white. What is the solution here? I have swapped the wires around once so far and it made no difference. Thanks Simon

I just can't get it to work .. help! How do i get photos uploaded to the forum into my posts ... i feel so stupid asking this. thanks folks Simon

The Dizzy Doctor is really good though and for most of us who are old school mechanics or weekend warriors and haven't got the science knowledge that you seem to have are very happy with what we get from a straight out of the box solution, I mean come on guys its a Landy not a Ferrari its a...

Na not really mate, the 123 I bought was an early version with a limited number of pre set curves none of which worked on my SIII up here in the Alps, in the end i bought a distributor from Distributor Doctor which is so much better, I certainly understand the science a d I’m not a dimwit thanks...

Morning folks, Now i have reached the point where next on my list is are the shock absorbers and turrets, question is should I get the originals or those cool looking off road types? Also has anyone experience with Bilstein shocks? Have a fun sunday Simon up the Alp

Yes we thought that but when we stripped the old cable both wires are white and now we don’t know which way round it was.. oops

OK folks, swapping out the hubs and come to the point where i find out that firstly I have the long cable version so way way too much but worse there is no plug just bare wires. So does the polarity matter or not? the rest is all going as per the workshop manual with no problems. Simon

Guys, in the box with the new hubs there is a card that talks about clearing ABS codes .. is that a thing or what?

yes this was going to be my solution using my 75kg on a long pole ..

490! that's going to be tricky

And onwards to the next bit of Disco fun.. Is it really only a case of Hub off and then pull the entire drive shaft out, put it in a vice and knock the CV joint off and simply knock the new one back in (circlip replaced of course). I'll replace the oil seal into the axle. Then new hubs bolt back...

Thanks Chaps .. got it ...

Might sound silly but starting from which end?

For me it seems it got worse after the head gasket change having sat at an elevated angle for a couple of weeks, turned out it needed ATF fluid which improved it some what, then i replaced the modulator and the actuator but didn't really take a note of where the waste gate lever was set at. Yes...

Awesome, fitted both modulator and actuator at the campsite at the foot of the Lukmaier pass in the Alps, drove up to the reservoir, curvy steady incline on rough alpine tarmac, parked at the lake, rutted shale track on an incline down to the shore line and the same back to the campsite. We took...

i found this no problem ... or see many of them here https://www.ebay.com/itm/331479006442 found both at LR parts would use paddocks but cant find the actuator there. I figured it was faulty after towing a 2 ton trailer last Friday weekend, after the recent head gasket and changing of all the...

I'm planing to replace both of these but can't seem to find part numbers that Paddocks and co recognize. Any help pointing me to a supplier would be help full Thanks Simon
