  1. I think I have it now. Thank you. When I opened the link on my iPad I didn't get all the variations. I do get them on my laptop.
  2. That was my first port of call but I seem to be unable to match the VIN. Plus the last time I asked them to confirm a part number for my tdi they got it wrong resulting in me importing the wrong exhaust and losing a lot of money.
  3. An elderly neighbour recently lost the offside wheel arch moulding, a 2020 Discovery Sport, it flew off as the vehicle entered the motorway and I'm struggling to find the correct part number. As I'm in Italy I will not be able to return it if it is incorrect. Where can I see an online parts book?

    I was quoted €700 by the closest landrover dealer. I'm sorry but this is daylight robbery.
  5. Never seen them before. I have always just bought another die. Too many tools!
  6. The nut at the bottom of the shock is finer pitch but I believe the M12 can be 1.0. 1.5 or 1.75. I have ordered a die from Amazon, hopefully, will be here tomorrow. Nuts were also ordered, but I'll have to drive 2 hours to pick them up.
  7. They look OK, just very, very tight. Determining the thread size is now the problem, to buy a die. I believe it is 12 x 1.75, but no car means I can't go out to check. 15 clicks from the nearest town.
  8. The nut holding the top of the rear shock absorbers to the upper bracket was extremely tight. It only came off because I was using a large 3/4" ratchet set. One side was slightly worse than the other. The nuts were actually hot when I got them off from the friction. Is it OK to use a die to tidy up the threads for the new nut? Getting new upper brackets will take more than a week and I really need the car back on the road as we are very remote.
  9. I tend to try and stick with original LR parts. Are these any good? They were given to me by a friend.
  10. Having purchased a pair of original STC3771's from the UK a friend, who has recently sold his 95 110 has given me a pair of Monroe D6629's and a pair of Monroe D6628's. Is there any difference? Which should I use?
  11. Is it possible to determine whether I have std or heavy-duty springs? If not how do I decide which would be better? I do carry the occasional load and I am offroad every day just getting home.
  12. I don't think so. I have Italian reg and it takes more than a VIN to get a new log book here, including lots of expenses.
  13. I'm more than happy with the factory standard, I have 2 part numbers, depending on which LR parts list you look at, some overlap but I would have thought the hi-cap had heavier duty and the parts lists don't list the hi-cap separately. When you look for part numbers for springs it becomes even more confusing as the LR parts book quotes colours.
  14. why? what can someone do with my chassis number?
