saads liquid fabric cleaner

The best thing i've found for cleaning hands is saad wonder spray on liquid fabric soap. Great on your missus hands and where ever else she may wish to use it. Mine believes it is a fine aromatic cologne using the best of australian gum leaves for scent. My ex wife thought it was most perfect for her own colonic irrigation. Needless to say she is no longer with us

Where to Go?

Other than the obvious replies I expect, can somebody tell me where to go in Brisbane to get the headlining replaced on my '97 Discovery. It's a model with twin sun roofs and twin air, looks a bugger of a job to me.

Is my transmission dying?

Hi,

I have owned a '94 Tdi Disco for a bit over a year. It has been terrific, we've driven it from Canberra to Queensland and 3 trips down to Victoria. I towed a horse float to Victoria and back and it went well. Acceleration and power up hills was good until about 3 months ago. Now it can't maintain speed up a serious hill, let alone accelerate. It just dies back, while going through the gears.

I had the engine serviced, all good. Took it to the auto transmission place as I thought that could need a service. They advised that the torque converter is not working properly and that metal filings and fibre fragments in the filter mean that the gear box could die within weeks, unless I get the transmission rebuilt for about $5,000 to $6,000. Are they having a lend of me? It doesn't seem that bad to drive. They showed me the filter and there did not seem to be much in the way of anything in it.

Could I get away with a new torque converter. If it really does need another transmission, are there cheaper reconditioned alternatives?
