Tires are in. I appreciate the design and think it compliments the D1. These are Treadwright tires. I drive it less than a 1000 miles a year, no need to spend a grand on tires. I got 4 of these for less than $300.
Treadwrights website. They are the ATG's. 10% off after the Houston flooding. I believe Treadwright is HQ in Houston. The regular price for them is still good imo.
While changing both interior boots (brake/hi-lo) on wife's rig, notice three of the four insert pins were missing on the switch panel cover. Took a 1/16 drill bit and drilled down into the portion of the cover where pins had broken off, the area is slightly raised, so you can drill into cover about an 1/8 inch. Used the shank of a 1/8 used pop rivet, cutting the pieces to length (1/2). Then super-glued them into drilled holes.
Not the greatest pictures, but pretty self explanatory.
Steam cleaned my Discovery 2 TD5 2001 RHD auto ES after finding red atf fluid leaking below the area where the transmission intercooler and radiator is positioned. I cannot see the source of the leak as the cross member obscures this area. Any ideas what element could be the culprit. With the engine running there is a steady drip of red fluid from this area?
Finally got around to fixing the rear armrest cupholder. Wasn't super high on the to-do list, but it was bugging and it was the last cracked/broken item in the entire interior. Only posting this because these things are STUPID hard to find intact.
