Its Gone Back

[The Bodyman]

I'v had to take my new disco back to the Land Rover dealer with a list of faults. Mainly steering problems and trouble with 1st gear. They say they can fix it and have given me a new disco to drive around in until its done. Let you how it goes later.

Hi Graham. This one only has 450 miles on the clock when it went back with these faults.

1.Steering wheel off centre.
2.Vehicle pulls to the n/s.
3.Over bumps you can hear a knocking from the steering column.
4.Scratch marks on the inner trims panels in the boot.
5.Bonnet alignment poor.
6.Tailgate alignment poor.
7.Side mouldings coming off.
8.Sill mouldings are tight by the bottom of the rear doors.
9.Dash and interior plastics feel rough to touch and leave a deposit when cleaning.
10.One of the kegs is bent.
11.Steering has play in it.
12.Vehicle tracks.
13.Wind noise above drivers head.
14.Some times difficult to get 1st gear when stopped.
15.White mark on dash will not clean off.

I haven't done anything about rust revention before. My last disco I sold before it was 2 years old so rust not a problem. Hopefully I will do the same with this one.

Is yours all OK? What modle do you have?

Big_Dan said: Graham: cruise can be easily retrofitted to the TD5 apparantly ... only cost you about 50 quid IIRC. I can dig out the details if you like.

Jon: Time for a rejection of yours I think!

Dan. Yes, might ask for my money back. Jon

All sorted now. Got my money back and a new Disco coming Monday. Same modle but different body colour. This one was built on a Wednesday.

No problems yet.All seems to be ok. Much better than the other one. Only got it Monday night so early days. Keep you posted.
