    LED headlights for D1?

    If you look up the model lights that I purchased on Amazon, you'll see people that have posted reviews. I did some research and found a set on Amazon that had some review from somebody with a Disco. I found the ones I bought and it had a review from somebody with an early D2 (with the same...

    D1 Brake light electrical issue - 5-speed conversion

    Ok, so after looking at the rave diagram further, it looks very simple. There is a Green Orange wire going into the switch and a Green Purple wire going to the lights. The fact that the lights turn on when I plug in the switch means that it completes the circuit. What doesn't make sense is that...

    D1 Brake light electrical issue - 5-speed conversion

    So the relay that I hear may be related to the ignition key interlock; related to not letting it shift out of park until the brake is depressed. According to the rave manual, I don't see anything really between the switch and the lights. But I may be missing something.

    D1 Brake light electrical issue - 5-speed conversion

    Ok, so I have a D1 300TDI that was converted to a 5 speed not long ago. I noticed recently that the brake lights were always on. I pulled the brake light switch and they all turn off. Fortunately I have a D1 V8 Auto and tested that switch to see if it was just the switch. When testing on the V8...

    Thanks. I have that ring still but I installed a slickshift so the housing no longer fits.

    D1 Manual Transmission Conversion - Warm air center console

    Thanks. Yeah, I think there are the 2 pieces. The one you show is rubber (AWR3286) and factory riveted (though I'll probably screw it in). Then there is the foam piece that lays on top of that (AWR3287). -G

    1996 D1 - Wow - Not mine

    I found this when browsing eBay. I'd be curious to see how it looks on the underside, but wow. Looks almost like it just rolled out of the plant...

    D1 Manual Transmission Conversion - Warm air center console

    Thanks! I'll figure out the foam piece. I think I can guestimate the thickness with photos I've seen and cut something out.

    D1 Manual Transmission Conversion - Warm air center console

    Ok, so I just recently completed the conversion of my 300TDI D1 to the R380 from the ZF auto box. I know I'm missing some parts between the center console and the open air under the truck. What is happening is actually a bit interesting. When I open any of the windows, I can feel warm air coming...

    300TDI rear main seal leak?

    Gave it more time and still was leaking. Pulled the engine out again this week and it was leaking from the base of the rear main seal. Maybe a bad gasket. Anyway, I pulled off the rear main seal, used Right Stuff as a gasket and put it back on. So far it's all good. There were some other small...

    I think the NA 2.5L diesels have like 64hp. It looks like a great little truck truck for what it is.
