What happened to your Discovery 2 today?

You're welcome to come and fix my land rovers for me when they break down [emoji6]until then I'll stick to taking advantage of a service I already pay for in getting it to where I have all my tools and a secure shed.

I'm going to jinx myself but mines never broken down in the 10 years I've had it. Not once on a tilt tray [emoji106] does that mean I'm not in the Landy club?

My old defender and d1 were both on tilt trays though so I suppose I still qualify [emoji28]

Edit - I'm not calling the broken key issue a break down ok [emoji12]

Potato Potato,, :)

failure to move is a breakdown--- :)

Maybe it is the theory i live by carring a good range of tools some hose and cable ties and some hose clamps assorted nuts and bolts as i have never failed to make it home from anywhere .
No im not bragging or having a dig at anyone but always give it a go , Hell a old holden i owned once i even changed a timing gear in the middle of nowhere on the side of the road [bighmmm] I might have hitched a ride to get said parts but i got home[wink11]

Mine had eaten the A clutch pack in the trans. I'd love to watch you fix THAT in the side of the road, Chris.

Red or Grey motor timing gears are a snap. Done a few myself, especially as the old pressed fibre ones often self destructed. No bent valves to deal with. The hardest thing about that job was guessing the timing marks in the spiral gears, and that only took two goes. The things even had side plates so you could deal with the lifters if you needed to.

Used to listen to this crap way back in the coach days. With 40 odd people behind me, and everything to do in the snow for example, why should I be worrying about missed gears?
Besides, autos are better off road.
