Thread: New member with AC problems

    Question New member with AC problems

    Hi Guys, new to this site, I have a 2003 V8 Disco 2 S. Its a lot of fun and a pain in the back side too but I do love the rumble of the V8.


    I've been getting a wine in the bearing of the AC unit and was going to buy a new unit on Ebay but I'm unsure if the V8's and TD5 units are the same. Can anyone please assist?

    Thanks, is there anyway of knowing between ROW (don't know what that stands for) or the Japanese units?

    Mine didn't come with a wine in the AC unit. Must have been a special dealer supplied item. Cheers

    PS. A good drop?

    They aren't that easy to fit... I think I have a post of how (not) to do it somewhere on here, I messed up from start to finish and ended up just buying a new unit from the UK.
