Had the rear prop shaft removed and overhauled to include new bearings / rebalanced etc, and then an engine oil change

Nice lights, any chance you can link to the parts used. I was thinking of work lights but want them for when the backs open like you did. Possibly just to run of the lighter socket if thats ok Amps wise.Disco 3: Lotus Elise S1: Ferguson T20: Audi A2

Disco flew through her eighth MoT. Apparently they couldn’t believe a well-used D3 this age didn’t have anything needing fixing, so they looked again and found a small chip in the windscreen!
Thanks to Ottons for the wash and sweets, and kudos to Steve Norman for looking after her so well!

Bought a IID BT Tool from Duckworths and have been playing all morning! Has anyone managed to get the dial sweep function to work?

Fitted a Blackvue 900s - waste of money as the 4K resolution is so good it picks out the heated elements on the windscreen! Video playback looks like it has been filmed through a pair of tights!!!

Pre MOT check, took all the wheels off, cleaned up some brake pipes and had a good look around in general. Didn’t find much, there is some play in the rear drop links and it needs a new rear wiper blade.
I plan to change the wiper and put it in. Will order some drop links too, just in case.

Washed. First since about July. Finished leathering it off and ten minutes later it started raining.
Was going to Autoglym it. Maybe I’ll just put my feet up and meditate. Roughly translates as sleep.
Edit: rain went off so managed to polish whole car including roof. Need a coat of wax next. May manage that tomorrow. Or may have forty winks. 2014 MY Discovery XS Indus Silver. Sadly gone. Second last LR of forty eight years continuous ownership.
