  1. Cheers, I'll check the handbrake adjustment first. The wheels are off next weekend anyway to fit new suspension so I'll check all four pairs on the pads. Thanks again
  2. Hi all, I have a problem and need some directon. The Brake warning light on the dash is flickering occasionally, more noticeably down hill ? Only other symptom, the handbrake is right at the top of it's travel and just holding. Fluid is OK. Me thinks brake pads ?, front or rear ?, if it's handbrake what do I need to look at ? Cheers
  3. Cheers, done that, can't find anything relevant
  4. I have a 96 300TDI and I'm planning to upgrade/renew my suspension. I do light off road and some easy green laning, nothing extreme so I don't want lift. I was going to go with - HD Springs and Gas shocks or HD springs and Std Oil shocks The original kit has done 90k, the backs seem alright but the front's starting to sag a little due to some extra hardware I've added. What's the general opinion. Cheers
  5. Bogmonster, do I need to up the pressure's if I add weight ? I added a Steering gaurd, diff gaurd and A-bar to my Disco 1 yesterday and I can feel the extra weight on the front end. Cheers
  6. Hello, before you give me stick for worrying about the CD player in a 90 , hear me out. My old man bought himself an '06 XS 90 (25k mls) 3 months ago from an official LR dealership. (not cheap , hense me asking the question) It went back in as the CD player regularly skipped. (December) Problem solved at LR dealer, in for a couple of hours, new unit fitted. New CD now won't play, 2 weeks after getting it back. It's obviously going back again but anyone heard of this before ? Cheers All
  7. Challenging day, 2 bulbs and a new handbrake gaitor
  8. You are soooo right, it's got much worse since we've had snow
  9. I have a 95 300 Auto and whenever I go out in it I get a "smile" on my face. If I go off road the "smile" just get's bigger. Is this normal ? I've seen other Disco drivers waving to me who appear to experiencing the same problem
  10. I wish one the the old hands had replied, I have the same problem on my 95 300. Drives me nut's
  11. I bet you wish you'd never asked For what it's worth, I have a 95 300, with 2 Fobs & immobilizer etc etc. A relevant Workshop manual is great investment if you have a Disco Good Luck
  12. Anyone getting out anywhere in NW today ? Hopefully more snow coming
  13. CHEERS bOGMONSTER. I THINK i'M AT THAT POINT NOW, WENT OUT THIS MORNING AND IT WON'T BUDGE
  14. Hi, the ignition barrel is getting a bit dodgy lately on my 95 300, 87k. The key won't turn, a bit of jiggling and it's right, but it's getting worse. Any ideas ? Mitch
  15. Did mine with the EGR. The difference isn't massive but it's better. MPG 's not as good
  16. Hi, I've got 245/70's on my 95 300tdi. No fit or cut issues. Clearance is fine. Cheers
  17. Mine did the same, did the slave and master cylinder. Problem solved Clutch fork would have been my next possibility. Good luck PS. Clutch & Slave is not an expensive job
  18. Gutted, got the Disco, got the tyres..........but no snow
  19. Hi Roy, yes they will, no mods needed. Got them on my std Disco 1. Cheers, Mitch
  20. Thanks for that , I'll go back to Standard on the filter
  21. The economy is slightly better over the last few weeks, although I'm currently running down a full tank to compare to the full tank pre mods (same type of use). This will take a few more days, then I'll have a tangable comparison. The emmissions appear better but not tested, I used to get a black belch from the exhaust on start up, rev up high and when it changes to top at 50mph (auto). I still get some smoke but it's not black and there's less of it. The performance has improved (not a sports car) but there is some improvement, more noticeable from 50 -70. The K&N I fitted was a panel filter direct replacement, not an induction kit, so there is no intrusive induction noise. Cheers
  22. Same problem here, Devon 4x4 want £62 for the kit. Where did you get yours for £25 ? Thanks
