  1. Hi, can someone please do me a favour, I need a pic from underneath a 200tdi of the route the handbrake cable takes around the gearbox and transfer box, I had both dropped to change the clutch and I must have it coiled wrong now as it rattles off the tunnel, and can't think the route it took
  2. Hi Can you get the 3 fixings new for the washer bottle from a 200tdi Disco First one sheared and the other 2 are going the same way...
  3. lol if it makes you feel any better I ended up removing it a month later when my mates full stainless system became available lol
  4. tbh I bought both as it was only like £50 and I couldn't get any answers about fitting it on a 200tdi......
  5. I did the same...bought a centre replacement plus rear box for my 200tdi...all I had to do was use 2 bolts to join the front to the down pipe..
  6. I have had the viscous and shroud removed from my 200tdi for nearly a year..plus I'm running more boost and turned up pump...ran in traffic in hot weather with no problem...its not a hot running engine...only once offoading have I wanted a leccy fan and that was winching though bloody deep mud...
  7. ...right ok stub is off and swivel cleaned right out...also diff emptied incase of water ingress or incorrect oil level...breather hose will be sorted next month as fitting extended breathers all round.. ....still not sure how much to replace....so firstly as I have never seen the back of a stub before....the bearing looks good...but is there meant to be a seal visible or is it part of bearing bit ??
  8. thanks for the help guys....will check n replace the seal in the stub...
  9. Hi all I had a problem with oil or grease on the inside of my front brake disc....I cleaned it, it came back...so stripped down front hub stub and back of hub were a mess I cleaned all up, completely cleaned bearings and fitted a new seal on back of hub, filled swivel with lucas hub oil.....after driving again got trail on front disc again...cleaned disc...came back found this when i took off the end cap the bearings were completely contaminated again...seemed to come through nose of stub I stripped it all...thoroughly cleaned the bearings, this topped up with one shot swivel grease overnight it seems the problem has revelaed itself... oil/grease is leaking out from the stub....so is this a knackered swivel ? will it need a rebuild ? if I leave it i assume I will get the same problem with the leak then contaminating the bearings ?
  10. does anyone know if the 2 centre vents in a 200 Disco can be removed ?? the ones that are above the heater controls I want to mount something to the dash top next to the instrument binnacle but dont know if I can screw down as all I can see is pipes when I look from the side...any idea anyone ?
  11. thats why I'm asking.....I don't know.....
  12. Hi all...is there a difference in the exhaust between a 200tdi and 300tdi,,,,,obviously yes for front pipe...but centre and rear silencer boxes ??? ...basically if i bought through pipe and rear box listed for a 300 tdi will it fit my 200tdi ok ??
  13. ...second here....done everything so far...great tool !
  14. first thing I would check would be your thermostat
  15. Hi...started changing mysuspension for a 2" lift...on removing the spring I noticed that the hole in the middle of the spring seat had become tear drop shaped....should I replace the seat ?
  16. Hi all, had my 200tdi for over 6 months, central locking/alarm has allways been faultless as is starting....however now have a problem she unlocked and started fine last weekend....went out today, first she wouldn't unlock at all...no central locking working or alarm turning off, got in with the key and eventually central locking is working and the alarm appears to be turning on/off with the fob however she won't start. Turn to position 2 the lights come on ok, but on turning to start she doesn't...I get a clicking from a relay in the passenger footwell, then the power goes off and the alarm triggers ????!!!! I know the power goes off as the clock goes off and my sony stereo beeps as it does when you turn the ignition off. Nothing has changed with my car apart from a trip to Slindon 3 weeks ago where I did get water inside...my carpets are still wet and the car has been sitting so a possibility of condensation somewhere ?? I have tried starting whilst battery connected to my other car incase battery low, no difference, and also tried disconnecting battery and re-connecting, no difference I don't know where to start so all opinions welcome
  17. Mark that looks like the bumper I'm looking into at the momnet...any more pics ? don't spose you have it kicking about still ?
  18. Well M12 bolts fit in the standard holes in the front chassis so you can use them no worries got the bumper fitted.......just not sure I like it now lol
  19. cheers guys....just got 6 M12 8.8's hopefully get the bumper on this weekend
  20. Hi all, about to fit a winch bumper, what size bolts should I use ? M12 ? want to make sure I use big enough thanks
  21. right to reply to some things.......both fob batteries have been replaced, doesn't matter which fob I use. will have to get the dash out to check the alarm light...just know its never lit since i have had the disco even if it locks correctly. the siren is unplugged purely as it so damn lound and with it triggering so often on locking the car I unplugged it to save mine and my neighbours hearing. the bonnet close switch is unplugged to remove it from the problem....or will that cause a problem ? this morning it locked and armed (3 flashes) with it unplugged, next time I lock it it probably won't do the same thing !!! I have already cleaned all the door switches and tested them with the interior light on/off
  22. are you talking main dealer or one of the devices you can buy ??
  23. Hi all need some help and suggestions, the alarm on my 300Tdi Disco is driving me insane ! I have done lots of searches on the net but most problems seem to be related to the spider and immobiliser problems. Once unlocked the car always starts and the immobiliser never kicks in when not wanted, the problems comes on locking the car, its like playing russian roulette every time I try to lock the car..... The car will always lock, all 5 doors, however the car will do one of the following: -Indicators flash three times and stays armed till unlocked -The indicators don't flash but the car stays locked and armed -The indicators flash three times then the alarm triggers immediately -the indicators don't flash but the alram triggers after a few seconds Currently I have thre interior sensors unplugged, thr bonnet sensor unplugged and the siren unplugged It doesn't matter if I lock using the 2 button fob or use the key, I have cleaned up all the door light on sensor things, and tested them all with the interior light to make sure they aren't stuck open the one thing that doesn't work is the alarm led in the dash, assume a blown led ANY suggestions would be welcome, is it possible to swap out the alarm module in case its knackered ?? I don't even know where it is.....so any help welcome thanks all
