If you do need a replacement cable, don't buy a new one as I have loads. Only cost you the postage.

The revs " flaring " on gear change will be you clutch switch. It is in the line between the master and slave cyclinders in the pre-facelift and mounted directly to master cylinder on the facelift. If you have cruise, set it and see if it cancels when you put the clutch down.

Nice !. Are you going to stip and galve the chassis ?.

I agree. If your wipers clonk then it will be loose bolts holding the motor housing to the plate. I think its worthwile having the bonnet of anyway to check the top of the bulkhead for corrosion.

Great news Ben !.

The reason I ask is I have bagged a " wax oiled from new " chassis from a breaker and am having it acid stripped and galved. It is also a 3A chassis which matches mine. I'll be doing the swap myself using block and tackle from a barn roof.

Top man !. Good to see more and more people swaping chassis on tge D2,s. Did you strip and galve a good second hand chassis or buy a new one ?.

The correct sticker is no indication that the cdl lever is fitted. If the diff lock " gate " is embossed on the top of the gear knob then there is a good chance ut is.

So probably more to worry about if you DONT hear it !!. Top info, cheers.

Mine does exactly the same when changing down from 5th. A very distinctive " click " sound. Been like it for the last 7 years !!!. Your reversing lights will jyst be a knackered switch. Test by crossing the terminals to see if the lights go on. Either that ir a fuse.

You've certainly been looking in all the right places, so well done for that. My next step would be to find someone with a Hawkeye or Nanocom and and look at some " live data " whilst driving. You can monitor loads if sensor inputs as well as injector balance and air flow. Sound like you may...

If you dont get the tunnel cover plate and gaiter then water and mud can get inside the car. Previously to a cable operated lever being fitted this car had a D1 lever without the gaiter. A large hole had been cut in the original cover plate which, if you look closely, let in a flood of much...

Your in the perfect position now !. If one breaks just rob the necessary parts of the other !.

If you look at www.discovery2.co.uk on the guide to fitting a snorkel, it shows how to get the wing off.

FEWS ebay shop is doing genuine TD5 top hose for £48.00.

Worth checking the rubber doughnut on the rear prop shaft.
