If they kept the heritage* of early Discos then the floor will rot out under them & a bit of luck will see them fall into place with no effort at all.DodgeRover wrote: ↑Sat Oct 23, 2021 2:47 pmIt's the obvious place to keep them really, save them from premature wear.

Re: Disco 3, everything, for the diagnosing of. x1
Only just seen this - if you need to change the front propshaft it can be done (just) without dropping the gearbox cross member - by jacking up the gearbox to get enough clearance. Which was good in my case as the gearbox cross member bolts are hidden under the fuel tank cover - and that cover is the only thing holding the tank up......

Are you anywhere near up to speed with 06 plate ish Rang Rovers? There's a bird up the road who's got one which I think has a problem with the ABS module iirc? None of the local garages will touch it apparently

Re: Disco 3, everything, for the diagnosing of. x1
I'm pretty sure Parnhard has mentioned LR/RR ABS block faults before. I think it was in my XJR thread, as there's a fault he says is easy to fix but most places charge a few grand for a new module.

Re: Disco 3, everything, for the diagnosing of. x1
Must have missed that one? It effects all sorts like the suspension etc etc as well apparently, not just the ABS?

Re: Disco 3, everything, for the diagnosing of. x1
That is the disco 2 fault with the 3 amigos. Disco 3 is a whole new level of pain and nightmares. I try to stay as far away from them as possible. A Freelander is about the only post 2004 L/R product I will go near.

Good morning all.
Here we are again, a small prize if you can identify the task.

You've got a spaz chariot trapped under the exhaust and you don't want a fire there?
