My disco has been suffering from vibrations since a few days after I bought it. I have had it up on ramps and found that the flange bolts on the front uj 5 of the 8 bolts were loose thinking that this would cure it I replaced them all but the vibration is still there hae tried all the other alternatives axle oil level bushes shocks and springs. all seem ok but the front prop you can turn about 1/2" either way is this normal if not is it a reasonably easy fix or should I start to worry.:( :confused:

The front prop on my 90 does the same - the garage says it is normal!

There was me wondering what the drain on the battery was:). It would have to be a big one to cause these vibrations.

My recent vibrations were caused by both back tyres mis-shaping. My Landy specialist garage changed one and said the vibrations were now less but not totally gone as the other could do with changing as well.
And to think that the tread has loads left, typical, it wouldn't do it when they had worn out!

Thanks to all for advice given I think I may have found the problem the front uj on the front diff is slightly worn so am waiting for a replacement to arrive just keep fingers crossed that will be the end of it.
If unevenly worn tires cause vibrations it may be a good idea to have yer wheels balanced. ;)
