Check the seals around the very end of the rain gutter. That’s where mine leaked. And also the sealant around the top of the windscreen the attached might help

Tyres fitted- let’s off-road!! Insa Turbo Risko MT 265/70/16

2” spacers fitted under the air bags (replaced the 1” ones already in there) and waiting for the Insa Dakar’s to turn up for the 16” alloys I acquired on Friday to replace the 18’s & AT3’s it’s currently rolling on.

Very tempted- but Southampton to Blackpool is a bugger of a drive! If I can swing a visit to my office in Burnley soon and you still have them I’ll let you know!

Thanks, that’s really useful. Will ask a few more questions of the eBay sellers! I’m thinking that 245/75/16 is probably where I’ll end up

Where they the stock LR 16” alloys and what tyres did you have on them before you put the new tyres on?

I haven’t bought them yet - hoping to have a look today as they’re local. I’m assuming they’re the 7” version as they have 235 width road tyres on at the moment but not 100%

Firstly, sorry for another tyre/wheel size question. All of the links to info on wheel sizing that I’ve found in older posts are no longer valid - so here goes. I’ve been running 255 AT3’s on my Std 18” alloys since buying the car but a flat today revealed a damaged rim and I’m biting the...

Result - I keep looking but mine hasn’t grown the cdl spigot yet unfortunately so looking for a 2nd hand box :(

Good work on finding the box - aside from the Ashcroft option of getting mine reconditioned there aren’t a lot of options, 2nd hand ones are like hens teeth!!

Are you going for a new transfer box and linkage? Guessing, like me, you don’t have the cdl internals which makes it more expensive! Been on my to do list for a while!

Ooh Billing 2021 - now there’s an idea! Conveniently it’s a few days after my 40th so might even get away with spending some money !!

Should probably start a new thread (sorry for the hijack!) but can anyone recommend a decent option for pipe or one/makes to steer clear of?

Thanks. I’ll have a look for a pipe and ask the local garage that does my mot’s - the last 3 have been fine with no mention of emissions or anything more than an advisory so they seem pretty fair

I’ve been meaning to do something with the exhaust on my td5 - any mot issues with removing the cat or even going to a straight through pipe?

I have the same issue (blowing fuses) with my rear window heater and have been putting the job off for ages as electrics are not one of my strengths! Fingers crossed it turns out to be something similar

Thought I’d try adjusting the existing wastgate before fitting the forge unit (quite possibly the shiniest thing on the car!) - the nut and adjuster seems to be stuck/locked up so can’t move that and the sodding rear bolt for the heat shield is also stuck!! Managed to get it about half way out...

Hi there. Yep checked the pump, def working (at the moment anyway!) and measured voltage across the fuse which shows “HP” reading so hopefully it’s not that

Mines the same age and almost at 100k and I went for the Terrafirma pro sport - +2” as I put longer springs on the front and raised the air bags on the back but they’ve been great. Firm, yes but good off road for how I use it. I tried OME’s but didn’t get on with them but that’s just personal...

Worth checking the rear doughnut between prop and dif. Even a few small cranks can make it unstable - I changed mine along with the UJ’s (gkn heavy duty option) on front and rear props and it’s made a massive difference to annoying drone that I had. Have a look at discovery2.co.uk for UP’s write...
