  1. Allard 2nd IC, Fuel tweaks, Boost upped, De-catted
  2. Any home versions of norton and mcafee are a waste of space, you want the corporate versions. Mcafee 8.5 works well as does symantec corp. edition. running Mcafee on most of the machines i look after. wouldn't ever let AVG near anything
  3. If you have had the head off get it skimmed and pressure tested, saves wasting alot of time and money.
  4. My rear diff self destructed over the weekend after a trip to the shop and back So as I now need a whole new diff, cw and pinion I was looking at replacing it with either a Detroit locker or a Trutrac. Anyone using/used any of these in a disco and any recommendations? not going to go for an air locker as I can't justify the cost atm as I need new tyres as well.
  5. Solid type on mine, jacked the chassis up a bit but old one came out no trouble and new one in no probs
  6. I just ignore mine now, plus i broke the coupler a few weeks later
  7. Looking into water injection on mine so following with interest
  8. RRX

    Brake query

    Check all calipers and wheel bearings, mine was doing this and i had 2 siezed calipers on the rear and a knacked rear wheel bearing that pulled itself straigh when breaking but sent me off in a random direction
  9. Arm rests off a desk chair, probably from the parts dept at landrover
  10. Agreed, they are very tight normally
  11. No issues with comfort with a 2" lift on mine, but you will probably have to remove the rear arb as the links turn upside down.
  12. Haynes Jag manuals have a simple section on rear wheel bearings - take to local jaguar dealership
  13. You should prime any new turbo or one that's been sat off an engine for a while. Disconnect the fuel stop solenoid and turn the engine over for 5 - 10 secs until the oil pressure warning light has gone out. Then start the engine.
  14. What have you got lubricating the pump?
  15. Sounds very much like the switch, Mk5/6 escorts do exactly the same thing when it goes wrong
  16. Whipped the engine out of mine a few times to sort issues and can be done in a morning without too much hassel. Removing the steering box makes things easier tho
  17. Just out of interest has the disco ever had its injectors checked and/or replaced as mine did 200(ish) miles per tank and after new injeectors is well over 300 miles per tank and should be alot better when on road tyres. It may just be the acetone has cleared some carp off the injectors or is masking another problem with the engine
  18. the unichip should be mapped on the car afaik and isn't a normal plug and go chip, normally hear good reports from people who use them
  19. Sounds like the valve itself is leaking, tbh its best removed and blanked along with a new top hose and inlet manifold flushed out.
  20. Never had any problems with paddocks on anything i have ordered, but its like any supplier some people have no issues and some have loads
  21. Stick it on ebay as it will sell, might be worth doing the cambelt as its always something worth saying when a buyer asks when it was done and it doesn't cost alot to do
  22. Been running on WVO for a while with no issues
  23. 200 tdi has female threaded fittings, 300 tdi has pipes coming out at right angles to the pump so sadly not interchangeable
