Enjoying reading this thread (especially the split charge as i'm about to do the exact same)

All us 'fordians' should get together some time and put our Discos to use. Thumbs Up


There seems to be loads of split charges underway at the moment Thumbs Up

Yeah sounds good, I must pass a good 5-6 D3's each day without any sign of a forum sticker!

I think I need to buy a new forum sticker. I've been after a grey one but mine seems closer to white Big Cry
Which is the one I need ?

After my poor pooch skidding from side to side on my plastic boot liner I decided it was time to treat her to something with a bit more grip! £98 delivered from Duckworth's, not sure if thats good or not though?!

I don't think you can class it as a 'good price' but its better than some places. It frustrates me how much the boot mat is!

I can't bring myself to paying 100 for a couple of feet of rubber. But I know i'm going to have to eventually!

Nothing too exciting this time.........just an aircon regas last Friday. It;s so nice being able to keep the windows closed and the noise down!

The system was empty so they added uv dye incase of a leak, they also said there was a slight blockage on the return......um........something or other! He said the gauges would sit steady then start bouncing, apparently it should clear itself! I know nothing about aircon so if it's correct or not is anybody's guess!!

I've been looking at getting mine re gassed recently, did you take it to a specialist or somewhere like kiwkfit or halfords?

Last time I was at my local auto electrical shop I noticed they were regasing a car so I took it to them as they are extremely helpful and usually seem very knowledgable!

However, if I knew my air on worked fine and it just needed a regas I'd probably pay Halfords £30 to do it or buy the kit myself from there for £30 which gives you 3 regases.

You should do it Matt, I forgot how good aircon is Very Happy

After wishy washy handling in corners I thought it was about time to get my wheel alignment done at a local independent tyre place who has Hunter equipment. I've only driven 6 miles so far and it does seem like its improved the overall handling Thumbs Up

He told me it was a good job the rear was correct as everything is totally seized Shocked

The garage had no idea what TTM was though, so it was a good job I put in to TTM just before arriving 8)

Did you get it done at Hereford Tyres?

Not sure if you're aware or not but Hereford 4x4 (barrs court road) also own Hereford tyres. The owner James is a decent guy. I got my alignment done then a week later my hub went. They redid the alignment for free after sorting the hub out which was nice.

Yes it was at Hereford Tyres Thumbs Up

They asked who maintained my D3 then gave me a Hereford 4x4 leaflet! I've never used them myself but will bear them in mind when I next need something doing!

How is their pricing??
