My first day back from my holidays today, great at the best of times.
I'm not a happy bunny though, we have been told that we are not allowed
to park any vehicle overnight at our business centre. I would normally
tell the miserable twats to f.ck off & move premises, but we just

I've recently bought a 1996 2.5 tdi Discovery and I'm looking for
advice on the brakes which aren't very good. I've noticed that there's
a hissing sound as the brake pedal is pressed and released - is this
normal? With the engine running and vehicle stationary, when I press

After special ordering and reciving the Chiltons and Haynes repair
manuals, I have found that the books are not worth the paper printed
on! If I wanted a book on gm or ford (standard pics) I would have
ordered it. Are the books you get in the UK different?? Should I just

As part of our extension we are completely rewiring the house.  I'm
about to order 50-odd double sockets and associated gubbins from
Screwfix.  I have a choice of all the usual suspects - MK, Volex,

who can offer some personal experience of the problem. At the moment I

Oh dear me (or words to that effect) - changing a puncture today it became
clear I've got to change the front brake pads.  On the o/s wheel the inboard
pad is worn more than the outboard one, any suggestions why - both seem to
be moving?  Second question; how easy is it to get ...

My Disco 300 is an import.
Because of this its speedo is in Km.. I would like to try and get one one
miles.
Any idea where is best to go for one?

Had a pretty bad wreck the other day and the airbag didn't go off causing me
to have major bruising (black and blue) on my chest/breast area.  The other
cars airbag deployed.  My front brush guard caused the most damage and the
front area is pretty much in need of replacement.  It ...

People Hi again,
The autobox on the camel (a 200Tdi 1993 evented  Discovery converted to
autobox) has started developing a problem with its high gears.
It appears that the four gear is reluctant to engage and that third gear is

Hi. have just knackered my sun visor. Drivers side. Anyone got ideas about
where i can get one reasonably cheap?

Has anyone got experience of BiGas Sequential Gas Injection systems?  I
am looking at the P38 kits on flebay & are quite tempted.
How does this make compare to others quality wise?  Prices seem
