Ok thank you, mine is pretty bad until its started leaves a puddle and is washing off the old oil from the oil leak it had........its in the garage at the mo for the leak and ABS problem so I was just wondering what to expect bill wise.

Hi folks, sorry to highjack but just wondering is the FPR located at the back of the engine ? and is the leak worse when first priming prior to starting the engine or does it leak all the time ?, I only ask as I have a leak which seems to be bad with the ignition on, (fuel pump working) but then...

they certainly do get under your skin my 1st LR was a disco 1, I got to drive it with a big smile on my face for a little over a week before the cylinder head gave in, £1400 later and I got it back but it wasn't the same, when it was time for its MOT I was quoted £900 for the welding that was...

Thanks for all the sound advise and much appreciated help puts my mind at rest I'm starting to get to know the old girl now and how to treat her right.... just love having a Landy again. :D

thank you :) I just found discovery 2 td5 web site and read his article cheers, he has some good stuff on there.

Thanks guys, I've never even heard of a crank damper so I shall look into that, hope the glow plugs are fine as she starts on the button what ever the temp. So no matter how hard I rev no damage should occur, due to the ecu over riding the throttle then is that the idea. I know the TD5 are quite...

Thanks very much for that, it is when is cold, though I wouldn't say a rattle its more like its under strain as if shes been asked to much of I think theres a problem with the autobox or sensors governing its selection as soon as the expense of Christmas is out of the way ill get her booked in...

some have been named some not I think it depends how quick they get under your skin.... ours is Lara take your pick for the reasons, Lara the Land rover, after Lara Croft a go anywhere sort of gal and this is going to cost a Lara money!!!

Hi everyone hope you all had a good Christmas and happy new year when it comes..... I have a disco 2 td5 and have a couple of questions that I wonder if anyone could answer, I noticed the other day that the rev counter has no red limit, I think just about every car I've had has, that said I...

I had a 300tdi which was great while it lasted, but needed rebuilding and as I needed transport for work I had to let it go, 3 or 4 cars later and nothing filled the void, so it was time for another Landy in the family, I must admit it was a fender I wanted but having seen some horror stories...

good to hear that you got sorted out, wish I could have helped but don't have any recovery kit (yet) looking forward to the pics where about's were you ?

Right then been out to the Landy today and as suggested above, pulled the washer relay and fitted it in to the rear suspension relay slot, result - no compressor action, so I swapped them back and still the compressor remained off. jumped in and activated the ride height button, she rose and the...

Thats great thanks, never thought about that, I'll try your suggestion today and fingers crossed I was thinking it could be water ingress (hard to believe in a Landy I know) affecting wiring somewhere but can't think where its still getting power from with the ignition off. Thank you very much...

I don't know if the photo will work been trying all day, seems to be a back art..... any way this is what I did, I got a twin pod and cut it in half and then shaped it to my dash clocks I've only done the one side just now as other problems more demanding of my time have arisen, like auto box...

Thanks for the reply rjsdavis :) I reconnected my battery today and immediately the compressor kicked in with no change in the rear height, I left it for as long as I dare and until the compressor became warm and as you suggest drove it round, but it still ran on once the ignition was turned off...
