    Misc. Discovery I parts - Diff guard, ujoints, sliders, springs, and more

    I'll take the Slickrock sliders if still available and you're willing to wait a bit for me to pick up- I can't remember-do the Precision 344's grease via the end cap or between the caps? If end cap I'll take those too.

    Violent Shaking

    Agreed on the panhard rod bushings most likely culprit. I am one of the few people here who did not like the rubber bushings and I switched over to poly in the mid-90's after replacing rubber bushings several times. I found the rubber bushings started allowing my suspension to get "wallowy" in...

    BMW 3 series

    Current BMW engines are nothing special compared to the competition. Witness the improvement from the BMW-engined 2003-2005 Range Rover and the 2006+ Jag AJ-V8 version. However I have to agree re: the old M10/M12 engine. Spent many hours wrenching on a 1972 2002Tii-what a fun little car and...

    Here's some facts Roberto- The supposedly "clean" water in this video is filled with muriatic acid, high levels of liquid chlorine and other toxic and dangerous chemicals: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/5578535/phoebe_cates_fast_times_at_ridgemont_high/

    Stalling

    Well it requires you to pull the timing cover to check that the marks on the crank gear and cam gear are lining up correctly. From your cylinder pressure test they look a bit low from my experience. HOWEVER, before I pulled the timing cover that there's a lot of other things I'd check. I...

    Stalling

    Have you checked your cam timing? How old is your cam and timing gear/chain?

    Land Rovers newer than Discos

    Agreed. I have an 06 RR3-still has a lot of electronics. At least reman replacement air struts are now within reason plus coil conversions are available too: http://www.arnottindustries.com/part_LAND_ROVER_Air_Suspension_Parts_yid4_pid159.html Besides the additional power of the Jag engine I...

    Recommended Indy Euro Repair shops in Chattanooga, TN Area?

    I just drove my daughter to college in the Chattanooga, TN area and wondered if anyone could recommend any indy repair shops in the area. She has a 2008 Mini Cooper S. It still has factory warranty coverage but closest dealer is a Nashville I think. Primarily for doing maintenance work and...

    What Happened To The Guys Out West?

    IMO it went downhill after not long after KVT fiasco. No more epic trips. No more epic threads. Nothing new posted. The morons took over.

    Chevy Volt

    I checked out a VW Polo Tdi Bluemotion in the UK 2 weeks ago and I have to say I'd buy one for daily driver if it were sold here. No frills, decent quality with actually nicely-designed interior. With a nice stereo, sat radio and iPod adapter and I'd be happy. Furthermore it gets 70-80 mpg...

    07 RRSport

    That's quite true. Parts are generally less expesive on the Jag engine especially the general maintenance parts. Easier to replace those standard parts as well (oil filter, MAF, thermostat, etc.). In addition, the Jag engine is noticeably more powerful as well as getting much better MPG. The...
