Tomcat Nev Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 My Disco2 is making CV type noises on full lock. Does the Disco2 have CV joints or is it something else? I have to admit that i have never looked under my car!! Any advice greatly accepted. Nev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BogMonster Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Have the gatters been damaged as 43k is very low Pete will work it out that would be my guess, even a nick in one of the gaiters will let grease out and more importantly let water in, after that the ending is only a matter of time...

Tomcat Nev Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 All is fixed. The car is still under the Land Rover used warrenty. I had crawled underneath to check the gaiters on the CV's and found the steering box leaking - alot! So, i also noticed the Offside gaitor was off. No wonder the CV was making noise, considering the mud and poo the car had been through recently. The clip holding the boot on the hub end seemed to be a different - and smaller- one than that on the Nearside. Ho hum, i took the car into Ottons - who gave me a Disco 3 as a courtesy car - and the warrent replaced the steering box, CV joint and boot and the drivers door remote locking. All in two days including the inspection from the warrenty man. So i am fairly chuffed that the warrenty covered it all. Ottons are definitely better than Webbers.

IainDB Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Hi, Also have the same clicky noise from my CV joints, but no money at the moment to replace, this is how ever a disco 1 series. If I leave it for a while will it create any major damage to anything other than a CV joint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I leave it for a while will it create any major damage to anything other than a CV joint? Hard to say but I wouldn't risk it - if it explodes at high speed it will make a mess and might even jam a wheel or something nasty... you'd feel a pillock filling in the insurance form for an effin great big accident and having to say that it was broken but you hadn't fixed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
