Hi all, I have finished tearing apart my old dashboard to replace my A/C expansion valve. Breaking it down was much easier than I anticipated. I have two questions: 1) Do I need to shell-out the $180 for a genuine expansion valve from a place like Atlantic British, or do you guys have a...

I spoke with Will on Tuesday about getting a dashboard and radio bezel for my D1. He had them to me wrapped more snugly than a newborn by Thursday. Not only was the shipping super fast and super secure, but he gave me such an incredible deal on the parts that I can't see how he's making any...

Yup, as it says. Color of dash is unimportant as I am just going to Plasti Dip it. Let me know your price on a dash that is not trying to high-five the headliner and a radio/center vent bezel that is not cracked to pieces.

I am in need of a getting a new clutch on my 96 D1 5-spd. I was hoping to hold-out until mid-Spring when I could do the job myself, but I don't think I can last through the winter. Does anyone know the approximate cost I should be looking at to have a new clutch put in? Thanks!

Hi all, I have a 1996 D1 SE7 5sp that has something strange going on with its idle since it has gotten cold outside. I searched through the forum for the issue but only found one vauge reference that seems similar to what I am experiencing. As such, I wanted to get some more information from...

Does anyone have a working lower fan shroud for a D1 on the cheap? I saw a couple complete shrouds (upper and lower) posted on Ebay for around $35 shipped, but figured I'd ask here first. Thanks!

Hi all, I have been having some clutch issues with my 96 D1 5-spd. Sometimes when I depress the clutch it sticks to the floor and I have to lift it back up with my foot. It doesn't always happen, but it has been happening more often. Otherwise it shifts fine. I am new to hydrolic clutches...

I know this will probably be considered a series of stupid questions, but... My front shocks are leaking. How difficult of a job is it for me to replace shocks on a DI? Is it something I can do in my back yard with some jack stands? I haven't gone outside to look at it myself yet because it...

Hi all, So based on the responses to my other thread about a/c problems, it looks like I need to replace my a/c expansion valve. It looks to be a VERY big job (drain coolant, refrigerant, remove steering wheel, air bag, dash, heater core, etc.). Does anyone have any advice, shortcuts...

I know these are small things and almost not worth asking about... I need a sun visor retaining clip and three of the clips in the picture below. They attach to the back of the interior alpine panel. I cannot locate the latter clips on Rovers North or Atlantic British. Thanks!

Hi all, I've been having some problems with my A/C. I was hoping the Disco gurus could give me the next step. Last week I went to refill the system and found that the pressure was VERY high: around575lbs. So I decided the order a new drier, evacuate the system, and refill. Today I installed...

Hi all, I am trying to sort-out the non-working cruise control on my 96 Disco. The first thing I found was that the arm (operating link) on the actuator is missing. I don't know if that is a separate piece or if it is part of the actuator itself. Please let me know what you have. Salud, Jon

I have been searching through the forums and have not yet found an answer to my specific problems. If possible please advise. Last week my A/C was not blowing cold air. The compressor was powering on, however I did note that the button on the dash did not light up. So I took the Disco to a shop...

Hi all, I have started sorting-out various issues with my 96 Disco and have run across a few wire connectors that are not connected to anything. I have tried to locate them on RAVE, but have yet to identify what they might be. Could someone familiar with the interior electrical connectors take...

Hi all, I am new to the world of Disco ownership (1996 5-speed LSE) and new to the forum. In trying to sort-out all the issues with my purchase I am in need of sunroof rails for my Disco. My sunroof glass, motors, upper and lower tray are in great condition, but even after disassembling...

Hi all, I'm new to the forum and the Disco world, and look forward to getting my hands dirty. I just purchased a 96 SE7 5-speed 4.0 with 127k miles, and am having some problems with it right off the bat. I have tried to find information on the problems by searching the forum, but have had...
