Thanks @Gazman. We're just a couple of regular guys trying to to do our own maintenance. We prefer to tell it as it is. I've just uploaded a video showing where we went wrong in this video.

It’s a 45mm, just finished servicing mine.

@almusti. I can't remember, but I'll check tomorrow when I'm back at work.

@@61specialthank you in advance!

As Angus 57 says, it's probably 45mm but I must have used a 46mm as I've just checked my socket set and I don't have a 45mm. Hope that helps.

You're welcome. Thanks for watching.

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you! Cheers!

Yes, it is an 8 speed. It was jumping gears. There were quite a lot of bits of metal in the filter. For the price of a second hand box it wasn't worth the hassle of finding out what the problem was. We got the box from the same people that we got the engine from and they're pretty reliable.

Very true. That's why we have 2 Discoveries.....They're still the best all rounder for what we do though.

Hi @AngusAbbott-qf8xm I'm not sure how, but it was seriously tight. I had the same problem with my locking wheel stud on the car. I broke two sockets trying to get one off. It was only two months since I had the wheel off and I definitely didn't over tighten it. One of life's mysteries.

I'm going to have a go at tomatoes, green beans and weeds. No prizes for guessing which will be the most successful.

Hi @williamwazere. Thanks for the comment. I'm sure the tracks would be useful, but we couldn't justify the expense, especially when the quad bike will do anything the Gator will and more. The only advantage the Gator has for us is that it's safer for kids to ride in ( and it keeps the rain off ).

I regularly get a call from the man next door for a pull out with his JD gatter I go with Kubota ecivalant and pull it out and prove it's shite in the wet bits by driving though the wet bit and not getting stuck 🤣

@joseabejarano. I think it is a hex socket. It was a while ago.

Hi @970byEddy. Thanks for the comment, I'll have to wait until she breaks down, but if she does, I will make a video.

@SH-vw1ei Yes it does, but be careful. You might need to push the window down as you're unwinding the adjusters. It's possible that the regulator arm moves down and the window stays where it is. I hope that makes sense.

@rasimpeposhi5765 Thanks. I hope my video was helpful. You can save a lot of money if you can do these jobs yourself.

Non Omnes. Some people say you should replace both, but I haven't had any problem with the other side. In this part of the world it's usually frost or one of the many potholes in the road that cause a spring to break.

I hope it all goes well for you.

It certainly seems to be. Prone to crankshaft issues.

@@61special and for a long time the fact that landrover didnt drop it for the 3.6 just shows how much they want to improve the name of the brand the 3.6 has its problems to but selling that 3ltr to people with a known problem is a joke

Hi Jamie Boyd Music. I hope all goes well for you. It was our first time taking the body off and it was below freezing, which didn't help. It's not that difficult to take the body off, providing you have a lift. Our donor engine was out of a Jaguar so there was quite a lot of work swapping all the ancillaries over. Good luck.

Same as you I used a Ford Territory Engine so there was a lot of swapping over. All went well. The hardest part was getting the first couple of transmission bolts on and making sure we didn’t jam up the torque converter. Once that happened. I fitted the driver side engine mount (generator/alternator side) and it was pretty easy from there. The heat shields under the front guards caused a bit of anxiety. LOL I am a month or so down the track now and just towed a 2.5T Caravan 120km 2 days ago and it pulled like a train. Love my Discovery!

Glad to hear it all went well. We had a problem with losing coolant...we'd left off one of the radiator hose clips, but found it before she over heated. She's done a couple of thousand trouble free miles, much of that towing a tri-axle trailer.

Thanks Buy it Fix it. I think it was easier to build the shed than to edit the video 😄
