I’ve got a spot of bother…. 2004 TD5, air suspension…. One of the ride height sensors went defective and over pressurised the rear air spring on the driver’s side (RHD car). 5 minutes after parking in my garage there’s was an almighty bang as the air spring exploded, the other air spring...

The title says it all. Can you convert a late D2 to LED headlights? I live in Canberra, Australia so I am either trundling around the city or taking my life in my hands at night against kangaroos with a deathwish and they can do a LOT of damage to a car. Intention would be to leave the dipped...

Daisy's (2004 Td5 Landmark - UK model that emigrated to Oz when we did) aircon blower fan isn't blowing and we live in Australia so we need this fixed asap. Can't find anything on the forum that matches so it's over to the brains trust. Here's the symptoms: When Daisy starts in the morning...

I've had a search on this subject and most of the hits are regarding Series and Defenders. Daisy is a 2004 Disco 2. I spend a lot of time on the road between Canberra and Melbourne in the dark; pitch black middle-of-nowhere dark and there are kangaroos lurking. For those of you outside...

I am sure this has been covered already but I can't find it. Long story short, I need to drain the entire coolant system because my current coolant is Evian! (I kid you not! The hose connecting the engine to the heater matrix split on the way to Melbourne. Luckily it happened all of 100yds...

Does anyone know if the Bearmach shops in Caerphilly or Swansea are open this Thursday or Friday? Thanks

After months of Daisy (D2 TD5) throwing wobblies and randomly breaking down and being an absolute s0d to restart, I have finally fixed the problem. I took the very long way round the issue and learned a few lessons: - It's probably not the fuel pump, it's the most expensive part and a job to...

I am about to whip out Daisy's injectors to change the seals (I've got the special tool too!). While they are out, how do you clean them?

Dear Landy Zoners Daisy has made it to Canberra, if you are in the ACT, give me a shout. David

Regular readers will have seen that Daisy (D2 TD5) is acting up and keeps losing a cylinder above 100kph. I have eliminated the fuel pump, filter, air bleed valve, non return valve, EGR valve, ECU plug, ECU, injector harness, crankshaft sensor and injector seals from my enquires and a...

Dear Readers I am Daisy, a 2004 TD5 Discovery 2 Landmark. I met my owners at the age of 3 and we have been together ever since. There are 4 children, a dog, 2 cats plus mum and dad so my 7 seats are essential and the leather upholstery makes cleaning easier. We used to go camping in France...

Still not starting. Daisy is an April 2004 D2 TD5 enjoying a second career after emigrating from the UK to Australia. She has developed a fault where, without warning, she loses all power. Severe cranking of the engine usually persuades her back into life but that life lasts anything between...

Dear All I have just changed Daisy's crankcase sensor (which didn't fix the problem) and thought a 'how to' write up was in order: And if you follow these hints you do so at your own risk! The good news: Only one tool required No need to jack up the car I disconnected all the Fuel Pressure...

Okay.... Daisy is an April 2004 D2 TD5 enjoying a second career after emigrating from the UK to Australia. She has developed a fault where, without warning, she loses all power. Severe cranking of the engine usually persuades her back into life but that life lasts anything between 500 yds and...

Daisy is a 2004 TD5 Landmark Manual with 166000 miles on her clock. In recent weeks she has shown her first ever reluctance to start. The trick seems to be to leave the ignition on for about 20 secs then churn the engine for up to about 10 secs and she will fire. There seems to be more noise...

I changed Daisy's radiator about 10 days ago and all seemed good until yesterday. Without warning the radiator top hose became detached (the clue was the billowing cloud of steam and the temperature needle leaping up). Luckily we stopped straight away and the needle didn't get into the red. I...
