I was doing it 2 weeks ago and I found it easier to replace it and disconnect fuel lines from the wheel arch side and not from the underside of the car. Not too bad when on raised suspension height and without the wheel. But that was only me. I dont know when exactly My one was serviced last but oil and all filters were black. Well done Disco 3 HSE (55) - gone

It mostly came off okay. it was just the main yellow connector that resisted almost all efforts to remove it Had a little heart stopping moment when the engine refused to start after bleeding it.... but a few attempts and soma angry words and I scared back into life what is this life, if full of care?

Faffed about fixing the leak from a broken drain elbow that involved taking out the passenger cubby box and moving the fusebox to allow my hand to be scratched and scraped by sharp edges as I tried to install a repair.
Fingers crossed that its effective despite the fact the the fusebox doesn't sit quite the way it used to Dave

This was the outcome of the linseed oil. Of all the treatments I have used on grey plastic, it is still the best.
