  18. hi all, the wife's p38 had trouble starting ths morning, sound like battery dead, tried to jump start it did'nt want to know, and then i had a little mess round the starter motor wiggled a few wires all seemed tight, tried again first click of key bingo, now i noticed i could'nt see an earth wire on the starter motor, i think normally theres one comes off one of the anchour bolts to the chassis, am i right, because we had the roll pins done in the gear box and the prat had'nt done something and all the fluid came out when we got home, took it back sorted, but did he forget to put earth wire back on ????? cheers dd
  19. these koni heavy tracks, could i use these with blue/green & blue/yellow on the front, green/yellow/red & green/yellow/white on the rear, on my d90, that's got heavy bumper & winch, would the sockers be stanard, or are they lifted, :unsure: dd
  20. i took panel off, i think new doors would'nt go a miss :hysterical: dd
  21. on mine theres a screw which goes through the back and into the orange bit,which holds the lock in aswell, where do i get the orange bits from, whats the part number, dd
  22. hi all, have a problem, key snapped off in lock, took barrel out and managed to get broken key out, but also managed to snap the plastic orange bit on the end, looked on ebay and all the ones i can see don't have the orange piece on, where can i get them might aswell buy the set save having to many keys, 1987 defender 90, dd
  23. hi, had something like this on a disco1 some years ago, turned out to be panard bushes, but the steering seemed to snatch slightly, just a thought , dd
  24. hi, i did'nt have one on, i've fitted this wiper motor myself, but all the wiring is on the motor which compares with the switch instructions, do you supply a live to the switch, because fowolled diagram and nothing works, unless i put live straight to motor, what is suppling motor with a live feed, i heard it's the green wire, which in the instructions it tells you to connect to pin tree and pin five, still nothing, i'm at a loss, dd
