Default Do It Yourself (DIY)

OK, so I'm sure we all know by now that there is no Haynes or Chilton manuals for our LR3 or Land Rover in general. Don't know why but that's a separate discussion....

Everyone give their idea/knowledge/what they use or just sound off on what's out there as far as reference manuals so we can work on this car ourselves like we should be doing...

Note: As an example, it could be as simple as oil changes to even in-depth as diagramming/replacing air suspension.

The RAVE manuals are discontinued and it's all online now.l]
Full manuals I believe:

But you have to subscribe.

I thought the subscription was locked to Dealers only? I know they have information for general stuff like accessory fittings, etc. but is there anything down to the level Haynes manuals were?

I'm collecting info for my LR3 - Here's what I am doing. Put this "filetype: pdf site:disco3.co.uk" (remove the space between filetype: and pdf - stupid thing converts it to a smiley) into google. It will find all the PDF's save at disco3.co.uk. There are pages and pages of documents you can save. Yes you will get info that may be UK or europe based, but that is by far the largest collection of info out there for the LR3

Mack73, thank you so much! Hands down the disco3 site is the best repository for LR3 knowledge. Aggregating those pdfs was always a bit of a hassle for me, but your google tip will save me a bunch of time!

Just saw this posted up on disco3.co.uk: http://lrparts.net.ru/

Great way to track down part numbers and assembly diagrams
