| Haynes technical workshop manual for 05 Disco 3's!!! |
|
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone knows of a workshop manual for Discovery 3, for doing DIY jobs, repairs etc. I know Haynes do ones for Disco 1's & 2's but nothing for D3's. Any suggestions would be very welcome.
Thanks Lloyd.

I was looking for one of these also but I guess the prospect of pulling one apart and rebuilding it is too much even for Haynes!
But if anyone knows of one or similar I too would-be interested Club how do I join a club

No Haynes manual as far as I know 
But . . . pretty much all you would ever need to know is available (at a subscription) on the LR TOPIx site
go to http://topix.landrover.jlrext.com/topix/i18n/index to look
You have to register (which is free) and can ten view certain docments foc, but all the interesting and technical stuff is via subscription, it starts as little as £3.00 for an hour, £5 for a day and £60 for a whole year (all +VAT)
You can view or download as PDF's and can access a lot in a day, which is not bad when the avaerage Haynes manual costs around £15  Never get mad - get even !!

No probs, that's what we do 
Also, it might prove useful if you seek out your 'local' group, and pop along to a meet, you'll meet like minded D3 owners who will be very helpful I'm sure 
BTW, Club ? Yep just write it in your profile Never get mad - get even !!

It's the removal of the centre console really at this stage, I have some RSE headrests from TLO and want to get them fitted. Am a reasonably competent car tinkerer but don't want to be pulling stuff apart without having a rough idea what I'm doing first. Club how do I join a club

I don't know about that - I've got the Haynes manual for the Avro Lancaster . . . . 
2006 D3 finally swapped for a 2016 D4 Graphite in Graphite grey. No mods
