I went to an alignment shop to get a 4 wheel alignment on my 96 D1. The thrust angle is not adjustable but I was told it was about 3/4 of a degree off. Since it's not adjustable, does anybody know how to "fix" the thrust angle?

The 40 amp fuse located in the engine compartment keeps blowing in my 2002 P38. This fuse is for the starter motor and air suspension. I had replaced the air compressor with a rebuilt one less than 6 months ago. The air compressor feels hot even after parking the truck for 4 hours and it has...

On my 2002 Range Rover, the message center is indicating failure of fuse 12,13, 14, and 15. I checked the fuses located on right hand passenger seat and it looked ok. I tried replacing the fuses but I?m still getting the same fuse failure messages. Don?t know where to begin troubleshooting...

My ?96 Disco with 171K mi isn?t turning over... no clicks? nothing. Battery checked out ok. The starter was replaced with a remanufactured Bosch about 3 years ago and I put about 25K miles on the car since then. Over the past several weeks the starter sounded weak as it started the truck. Could...

I plan on using the Motive Power Bleeder to bleed the brakes on my 2002 Range Rover. Would the procedure be basically the same as indicated on the RAVE manual except that stepping on the brake pedal won?t be necessary?

The Rave manual specifies 2 different spark plug part numbers between the GEMS and Bosch engines. I'm searching for the correct spark plugs for my 2002 Range Rover P38 on the Kragen website but I'm not confident that their search results are always accurate. I'm considering the following...

I'm replacing the driver side rear air spring with the arnott air bellow on my 2002 p38. I was able to reassemble everything but I am unable to get the bellow to fold over itself and the bellow will kink instead. Anybody know how I can get the bellow to fold over itself?

With all the cars out there that run around 15K mi between oil changes, is that due to the advancement of oils over the years? If I switch my '96 D1 to full synthetic, would I be able to extend the oil change intervals to 15K mi? If so, is the oil filter good for 15K mi as well?

I'm replacing the driver side door lock actuator motor on my '96 D1. I found this motor from RadioShack see link: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2102827 It will operate on 12V and is consider a "hobby" motor. Is this correct and is it reliable enough?

It?s my understanding some of the 1996 and newer Disco?s had issues with sticky exhaust valves which can cause momentary loss of power/engine stagger. The sticky valves results from carbon build up on the exhaust valve (see link to article below for details)...
