denviks:
well it seems their service is bad across the board then...

after a call to the land rover parts dept i didnt know weather to laugh , or cry, but i was definatly shocked.

last week i noticed that my core plug just above my starter motor on my 300 tdi discovery had a small rust hole at its base. it had a small leaking going on.

so instead of messing about with other suppliers i called my local land rover main dealer. after waiting for an hour for a call back i asked about a replacement core plug....

simple?

the chap on the end of the phone really wasnt sure what i was talking about so i took the steps of explaining where they were and what they looked like,. eventully he found them on his screen. i asked if they had any in stock. after 5 mins he came back and said they didnt and he had to order them in batches of 5 at

Ralph Hardwick:
Many apologies guys. I have no problem in naming the garage it was Stratstone Woodford Land Rover in Hainault. I simple forgot to include it in the first post.

Disco Matt:
I often wonder if they actually want the business where older vehicles are concerned. There must be more money for them in selling and servicing a new Rangie than there is in looking after a Disco 1. It'd explain them being unwilling to order small parts for you.

I only go anywhere near the main dealer for aircon-related stuff, otherwise it's the local independent specialist.

Had a similar quote from my local dealer not so long ago.

DoubleTop:
that looks like a cracking unit and I'm liking the fact that it's no subscription as well.

Which device have you had fitted, I'm easily confused and wouldn't mind investigating a little more.  Did having it fitted affect your insurance at all ?

Cheers,

DT.
