If you are handy and inspired enough you can improvise with a short piece of solid wire with it's end hidden under the front grille but easy to grab, nobody but you will know about it and you can open the bonnet without even opening a door...

I replaced the back end of mine a few years ago now the post does not seam to be avalable here now, any way here is a copy of the post for you to read, or follow this link https://landroverforums.com/forum/discovery-ii-18/busy-few-days-100311/

do you have any other photo's, , is the other side of the hole in good condition, and whats the rest of the chassis like going to the rear as that where they normaly go, as I mwondeering can you take off the bady mount the using 3 mm plate weld...

You will need a serious look at you chassis to see if a 1/2 chassis is long enough and confirm its solid and will take a weld at the cut/joining point

Yeah, it's pretty bad. Carefully inspect the rest of it, might not be worth putting a half chassis on it.

Use a coolant leak detection dye and inspect around the whole engine with UV lamp cos it can be some hairline crack in a hose or somewhere and the leak occurs only with hot engine and evaporates instantly... if it's through the exhaust that one...

Yes! and welcome to the asylum by the way. why not pop over to the "introduce yourself" section and do just that? If you could find a Disco 1 300tdi that isn't too crusty it'd be better. But others who love the electronix loaded TD5s will...

The plastic tank isn't heavy. Remove the pump and syphon out the fuel first, then undo the clips on the filler hose and breather, then undo the bolts on the tank cradle and drop the tank. I've done this laying on my back and on my own many times...

yes had the same problem, I thought is was my PC blocking it and have kept trying to open the webpages, I dont do FB, so lets hoe it a fixable problem, after all that what theses forum are all about fixing stuff

when I removed mine it came out by pushing up on the filler side the pulling down on the opposite side

The cranks snap have a look on YouTube for LRTIME they are just about to strip an engine down in a d4 with adblue. Seems its on its 2nd engine all ready.

What ever you get add extra security, steering wheel lock , fuel pump isolation switch ,

Er being a Newbie doesn't give you the right to be obstreperous, so I suggest you cool it if you want some help. Really? It's a biggish V8 propelling a vehicle that weighs over 2 tonnes? What the feck did you expect? For a 19 year old I hope...

Hi, to check servo - with engine off, pump brake pedal until it goes hard. Keep foot on pedal and start engine and you should feel the pedal sink under servo assistance. HTH, Griff

my biggest problem was I had a full tank, hence tipping it over and siphoning out all the diesel, plus I had to find something to put it all in , my local garage very kindle gave me a new empty 200 ltrs oil drum,

When i took mine out to weld in a new back end chassis, I tipped it it on it side to away from the filler , the biggest problem I had was removing the hoses on the filler side , breather and the 3rd hose as it has one of thoses clips that need to...

I agree with Andy I did mine 2 years ago been OK since

You need to take the whole sunroof out, clean the old sealer off the roof & sunroof (every last bit) then reseal with sikaflex & whilst you're there check & put extra sealer on those pathetic plastic bits where the drain pipes connect.

I had a large rust hole just under the windscreen on the driver side electic glued it up

Hi if you happy you dont have any rust after removing the front cowl, check the grommet were the wikring loom goes through mine looke Ok but were loss and needed a reseal

Do you mean the corners of the actual door or the corneres of the bodywork under the door...

well I have owned my D2 now since, 2006, so I have not had 6 cars in the time as Ikept this one or bought an EV that cost's as much as 6 modern cars to make, so by my calc I save the planet loads

For all the folk that want to go electric watch this
