Official LR Documentation Online (GTR/Owner Info)
There are two official sources of Land Rover technical information online.
The first is the free "Owner Info" site which contains the following for the Discovery 3 and LR3:
Owner's Handbooks
Audio System Handbooks
Navigation, TV and Telephone System Handbooks
Rear Multimedia Handbooks
Warranty Handbooks
Driver Information System Handbooks
Accessory Fitting Instructions
All the information available on Owner Info is free to view after a free registration.
Update 9th March 2006 - Owner Info is now free to view and doesn't require any registration at all 8)
The second is the subscription based "Global Technical Reference" (GTR) which holds the following info for the D3/LR3:
Service Bulletins
Service Information
Diagnostic Device Information
You can view the titles of the documents available on GTR for free, but to view the documents in their entirity requires a subscription to be paid to Land Rover. The cost of the subscription varies depending on duration and the vehicles for which you require information. As of 15th September 2005, the prices are as follows (1 year/all years refers to model years of vehicle):
Note that if you sign up for '1 Year' (single model year) access you will not be able to view Service Bulletins, they do not seem to be grouped into model years so you only get to see them with an 'All Years' subscription. Thanks to Slimer for the info
Both sites require a free registration to use, but GTR requires a paid subscription to view information. LR Owner Info is free to view.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

One thing to note is if you sign up for '1 Year' you will not be able to view Service Bulletins, unfortunately they do not seem to be grouped into model years so you only get to see them with an 'All Years' subscription

Thanks Si, main post updated.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!
Not all the pages in the D3 Workshop Manual work, though they updated it recently so hopefully they'll all be online soon
Can I request that anyone that does sign up takes note of the confidentiality notices on the GTR site. Please don't post anything on here that may get us into trouble with LR!

Trying to use the LR Owner info site, but with no luck. When selecting a document I get:
javascript:view(7116)
... and then nothing. Tried turning off pop-up blocker, but no luck so far. Anyone any idea what I am doing wrong?

It works fine for me in Firefox 1.5.0.1. The sites were re-launched with the new UI on Tuesday.

You are correct, Martin. I had that problem before the UI change, though... and I did report it. The workaround to select a sub-category under "All Years" to make the list shorter.

The GTR website does not seem to work with Safari at all ! I can get a subscription, but I cannot access it or make change to my profile...
That is a bit of a bother as I wanted to access the tech manuals in order to check a few things...
I'll have to ge a refund, i guess... Still it ranks !
