Hi all, I’ve lost all drive in my TD5 D2 Auto… was driving fine, just completed a 1 hour drive (home thankfully) cruising at 65-70 on the motorway, so not particularly stressing anything, pulled off the motor way with no issue, around a roundabout, no obvious problems, slowed for traffic and...

Hi all, I’ve got a grumbling/rumbling sound/feeling coming from my Land Rover D2 TD5 with ZF4HP22 that feels/sounds like a failing bearing. It is engine speed related, not vehicle speed. It’s there constantly regardless of gear selection/vehicle moving/stationary. It is however worse when out...

Hi all, Whilst driving (sensibly) around a roundabout I had the three amigos come up along with the red break warning light and three chimes. plugging the Nanocom in and I come up with this; I can clear the fault but it comes back instantly, if I exit the page and tap “faults” again it’s...

I appear to have a battery drain issue... circa 1.8-2A. Pulling engine bay fuses I’ve worked out that F13 (BCU) accounts for about 1.6 of the drain and F11 (ABS valve) accounts for the remainder. With both these fuses out the drain is 0.01A which I consider to be reasonable... Obviously the...

I’m in the process of trying to revert to air suspension as I want the auto levelling. The compressor is building pressure and all the valves seem to be working fine through nanocom. I am yet to actually install the airbags as I want to get the system all running before I do that. I’m having...

I’ve been gathering parts to return my ‘04 ES Premium to air on the rear after a previous owner replaced them with springs. I’m not interested in the spring/air discussions, I want it back on air for the self levelling for when I load it up. When I went to replace the sensors I realised that...

My power steering pump is leaking, progressively getting worse, as it the wining it makes... is it a rebuild or replace job?

I've got a Southdown snorkel on my FL D2 and I’m in the process of sorting breathers. Diff’s I’m happy with. I’m assuming there are breathers on the auto ‘box and t ‘box? I’m sure I’ll find them. My main thoughts are about the air intake for the cab/ climate system. Does anyone ever put a raised...

I’ve got a strange fault with my D2 ES Premium auto. I went green laning back between christmas and New Years and a couple of times I felt a kinda surging from the engine/box and a reluctance to change up a gear. It was almost like a limp mode and seemed to lack power but gentle throttle...

‘04 TD5 ES Auto. Had a weird one today, yesterday I had some welding on the back left of the chassis (unsure if this is relevant) so left refuelling longer than normal (the fuel light came on about 3 miles before I got there) so that the tank was near empty in case it had to be dropped. It was...

Strange question time.... Is it an option elsewhere in the world to have a switch to increase the engine tickover speed to warm things up quicker? A Nissan I used to drive had one that increased tickover to about 1500 RPM.

I’m planning a little trickery with the wiring. Obviously to be legal the (what will be 6) LED’s on the front bar need to be through a relay to only switch on with the main beam. I want the side and rear LED’s on ahand break cut out relay so that theywill only work when the hand break ison...

Hi all, I’m tempted to remove the G4 roof bars/rails from my D2 ES Premium as they are somewhat lost under my full roof rack and quite frankly, in the way. Just putting the feelers out before going to the effort. The only pair on eBay are listed for ã300... I’m in Taunton, Somerset but could...

I have a slight problem... My 2004 D2 has blown an ACE pipe... it seems to be the back drivers (right) flexi pipe with the spring around it (anti rub protection). It happened on a round about with mildly spirited driving. Felt a jerk in the vehicle (may also include the driver before I get the...

Hi all, hoping someone can help. I had an SRS warning lamp come on a couple of days ago. I don’t know if it’s relevant but the truck had been parked outside in direct sunlight all afternoon at high 20*c/low 30*c temperatures. When I got in and started it, the red SRS warning light came on...

How does the heated seat element work in the D2? I set off for work at 05:00 this morning and despite the promise of a warm sunny day the leather was a little chilly on my behind so I decided to give my heated seat a go for the first time.... my left arse cheek and leg were lovely and warm in...

What’s the best location (under the bonnet) in a TD5 D2? I’ve got the relay/wiring (T-Max) already I’m just trying to work out where/how to mount the extra battery. I’m thinking the back left corner? Also, I want to add an extra fuse box in the cab of my D2, for roof lights and CB etc. I’ve got...

On my list of jobs to do is a double din head unit conversion for my D2 for both the massive improvement in capability (navigation, phone sync, digital music storage etc) but also the more modern, aesthetic improvement of a touchscreen. As part of this project I can’t help but feel that it...
