I agree with this, i am currently trying to get my 3.9 disco to quiet the feck down on the induction roar and the last owner had fitted a cone type filter due to an untidy gas install, to me it seems to take warm air once the engine is up to temp, it is noisy and i really dont trust the...

Morning all, well the 300tdi has been mothballed and Ive picked up a NAS 3.9 Disco 1 to tide me over until i can get the the old dog back up and running but the problem is the lpg system, it had been stood for 9 months or so before i got it and although I now have it running sweet on petrol...

Cheers chaps, I'll look into it tomorrow once I've chopped the roof bars off so I can actually get the dog into the garage.

Evening all, Its been a while since i last asked for help but just taken delivery of a very tired 3.9 Disco 1 auto amongst its many many fettles it needs there is a hefty clunk when i come off the gas in D. its cold and dark outside at the moment and i havent even made space for it in the...

Tyres new or older? I had a vibration i couldnt cure until i fitted new special tracks (usually cause vibes not cure them) and after that all was good, do you have a set of wheels and tyres from another landy you could try?

Ahem.....................................

I used the recommended sealant last time and wish i had searched for a gasket first if im honest, keep us informed of how it goes because if it works well i will be ordering one myself.

I run mine at zero degrees ti/to, have you checked rave for the right settings?

I paid 160 Polish zloty for mine for the pair so maybe I'm not your man for UK prices but I know @vilguy buys loads of em, he loves them and puts them in just about everything he drives, so maybe he's your man for UK prices.

I have smart car seats in my disco and wasn't a small lad, 6'2" and 21+ stone and they are fine, don't discard the idea for the sake of not trying em out first. On a another plus side they are also cheap as chips to buy

Yes

Front diff could be fubar, if the pinion bearing is worn the pinion can move so skipping on the crown, at lock the diff is earning its money compensating for the speed differential so maybe loading up is resulting in a bang.

Little update, the disco 2 diffs went in a treat without any hassle at all, look like slightly more refined castings and possibly stronger innards, time will tell.

WTF has happened to this forum????????

Cheers buddy, mine was previously fitted with a detroit locker in the rear so maybe it was something to do with that, at least it makes the change easier, the disco 2 td5 diffs are cheaper over here than the disco 1 diffs and freely available so it seems the way to go.

@jamesmartin, any idea why I wouldn't have any short studs James? Mine are all the same length

cheers james :)

Im pretty sure ive asked this before, and its something like a yes but the studs need to be longer on the casing???? but can anyone confirm or repute the fact that disco 2 diffs fit in the disco 1 casing? Yep Ive blown another, and i wasnt even doing anything this time :(

in dodgy car seller speak "they all do that" but honestly after a while most do, dont worry about it , maybe change the oil but its a landy, its an R380 it is going to crunch into to second, more likely than not.
