    It’s worth what it’s worth:) to me it was worth keeping, I have had her from new and had a good chassis since I undersealed her from day one, But still quite a bit of welding Floors/ Sills and A posts, annoyingly all preventable if I had covered her up with a car cover, hadn’t realised how badly...

    Disco 1 Front passenger window regulator

    Does diesel go off?

    I can truthfully say yes, left diesel in my Discovery for 12 years, and even though she started on the second turn with a new battery it made a holy mess of the Sedimenter/fuel filter/ lift pump/injection pump, left them all with a brown tar like substance that was the devil’s to remove,

    Disco 1 D1 200tdi | Gearbox, Diff and Transfer box

    I used Dextron 2 but some people swear by MTF94, if you don’t have a problem with gear shifting then I would stick with the original recommendations,
