    Advice on replacing both rear toe spindle links on Disco 4

    Okay, thanks hero, is this the place you mean and is this the complete part list all I need? There are some red bushes there too, so I chose the more expensive ones, I assumed both are the same thing? https://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/rear-anti-roll-bar-mountings--link-rods-1631-c.asp

    Advice on replacing both rear toe spindle links on Disco 4

    Hi guys, Well I took my car in for an MOT, the guys there failed it on what they wrote was rear track control arms, they told me it would be about £150 per arm and they charged £90 labour per hour, then quoted me circa £800 for the repair. I then said I couldn't afford that and would have to...

    Huge cloud of white/grey smoke from exhaust if I floor it on the first start of the day.

    would the problem still occur once the engine warms up, as once it does, I never see smoke?

    Huge cloud of white/grey smoke from exhaust if I floor it on the first start of the day.

    Thanks, I forgot to mention that the colour of the smoke is white/gray but persists in the air for a while until dispersed by the wind, regardless of outside temps. I didn't know what overfueling was so I just googled it and on first review it looks like that would lead to black smoke coming...

    Huge cloud of white/grey smoke from exhaust if I floor it on the first start of the day.

    Hi guys, I have a discovery 4 TDV6 2010, as the title says, when driving the car first time in the morning or if left for circa 6 hours or more, if I don't floor it and let the engine warm up for a while, say a 5 minute drive and I then floor it, I get no smoke whatsoever, the car drives...

    Anyone know of Fred's Cars?

    Thanks to everyone who replied, we ended up getting a full refund off the guys at Fred's Cars and going out and buying a 2010 discovery 4 which so far has been rock solid. I will say both the guys at Fred's Cars are very nice people, they both went out of their way to help us as best they...

    Guys have agreed to a full refund as the car needs a bit more work than we can afford to do, thanks for the advice all.

    Anyone know of Fred's Cars?

    They have been great with us, they have about 100 cars in their yard so I can't get too concerned about 2 people returning cars given the amount they must go through? Both the guys have been great with us, they offered a full refund if we want, they removed the EGR's and butterfly valves and...

    Anyone know of Fred's Cars?

    The D4 was wrecked, looked immaculate from the top, but there was a big component underneath that was caked in oil, put my foot on the brake gently as slowing down and heard like a spring sound then a clunking sound, I walked away.

    Anyone know of Fred's Cars?

    guessing the price is low due to no service history, which worried me but the mot history looks good, little things, not overdriven, will ask your questions and thanks very much for the advice sir. it's MOT'd until July 2024 👍...

    Anyone know of Fred's Cars?

    okay folks, thanks for the good advice, car kept going into limp mode so the Fred's guys (who were helpful and friendly, did the egr valves/butterfly flaps) have offered a full refund for the car, so I am looking into other cars, I looked on the disco 3 forums and couldn't find much, but saw...
