  2. ok..after a lot of forum hopping i reckon its the IRD thats shot,and possibly VCU. would removing the rearpropshaft make any difference to the horrible banging/scraping noise from the IRD till i can source another? kinda beginning to regret selling me disco now
  3. ..also while reading a few posts here i suppose it could possibly be the IRD,is there any surefire way of diagnosing which box is at fault? any help aprecciated.
  4. Hi going to look at an r reg freelander today,i beleive it needs a new gearbox,si i will be looking for a replacement, can anyone tell me which model the gearbox is....is it the same gearbox throughout the model run or were they changed at any point? thanks.

  6. hi there, a little help here pls guys!! my speedo doesnt work,so i disconnected it at the transfer box end,scooshed some wd40 up the sleeve,got the missus to check if the speedo worked as i twiddled me end (ooeer) wich it did..top bombing i thought,so i reconnected it and....nothing...the end seemed square enough so i dont think it was too worn to turn. any ideas where to go for here? thanks
  7. i second this,had the same problem...pry out the badge,good skoosh of wd,then work the handle...jobs a good 'un!
  8. hi-as title...finding it quite difficult to get hold of dexron3 gear oil,is there an alternative gear oil with the same properties?
  9. ah well, if thats the norm-then thats fine only other little niggle i have is a slight"clonk" when moving off in 1st,seems torque related, ropey clutch or worn props?
  10. Hi there, first post-just bought myself an old disco to knock about in, its clumsy,clunky,leaky and battered...and i love it apart from leaking like a seive and the crunchy second gear,its in not to bad a shape chasis wise. ive just come from an e36 325,and i know the disco isnt the fastest thing on four wheels,but i feel its a little sluggish and doesnt seem to want to rev past 3500k...as the rev counter goes to 6k i was wondering if this is normal? the turbo seems ok as i can hear it spooling up around 2.5k... air filter on order as its a bit gunky..and plan to clear the sedimenter in the next couple of days and have changed the fuel filter...any ideas welcomed
