I fancy a decent roofrack on my disco2 TD5 mainly to carry camping gear (the dogs get the boot area) Will the rack from a Disco 1 fit?, does anybody do an off the shelf full length rack that doesn't cost the earth? Those who have one, how much effect on mpg does it have leaving it fitted?

Hi All, I have the funds available to buy a diagnostics tool, they all seem to be similar in price, with the Hawkeye seemingly being the cheapest as well as being the only one not tied to a single vehicle VIN. So how does it fare against the Nanocom? one job I need to do is calibrate my...

Morning all, been a while since I've been on here! Our Y plate TD5 Auto has had the odd electrical gremlin, and now would appear to have gone terminal on me. Came back from a week away to use the disco and she started fine, left her running for. Few mins came back and the M&S lights were...

The wife came into work today to pick some stuff up. on the way in we have some viscious speed bumps, she hit one of those and the suspension lifted all the way up at the rear.. she parked up and the suspension wouldnt settle. i noticed the right hand ride height arm had come off the trailing...

Just picked up a battery from halfrauds (trade card so was cheap) got it home and it's the wrong size! Anyone know if they changed the battery 1999-2000? Car was registered Dec 99 so I'm assuming it was the following model year. I read a thread on here that mentioned the batt box was too...

Just picked up our new to us disco2, which has 3 newish tyres and one older one.- all different brands. Looking to replace all 4 for the same obviously, Standard spec ES with SLS & ALS, driving will be a mix of longish motorway journeys 2-3 times a year, home driving is rural South Wales and...

Well I'm back, used to have an X reg TD5 auto GS, sold it, missed it. Picked up an ES TD5 auto with 107 on the clock yesterday. Few faults to be fixed, the joys of disco ownership I guess! Planned mods include swapping the boot seats for bins, probably a snorkel, lift and maybe an A bar

Hi all After looking at a parrot unit, decided I would rather just put in an aftermarket unit, just put a decent JVC in the wifes car that has built in Bluetooth for the phone and a iPod input. Has anyone successfully put in a head unit and managed to keep the Harmon kardon working...

OK, little history first. I have 'some' off road experience in MOD wolfs/110/90's (mostly desert & german plains/ hills) I have a 2000 X reg disco 2 TD5 auto, I want to take it for a some gentle off roading, get some experience etc. my 4 yr old loved it when I took the disco down a bit of...

So, I have a 2000 (X) disco 2 GS with a harman kardon set up. I love the stereo (and the disco- new addition, pinched it from the wife) I do however want the functionality I had in my 5 series, Bluetooth for the phone and proper use of the ipod functions (its an iphone) The parrot...

Evening all. Just back from a trip in the wifes disco 2 (2000 X TD5) I pulled up at the school I was off to (loaded up with a bunch of photo studio kit) after going over a couple of mid sized speed bumps and thre lights came on the dash, in amber. ABS Light Traction control light HDC light...

well following on from my , 'ACE light is flashing red, and I have only just picked it up' thread. it was looked at by a LR indy, they fiddled it, and it was ok, dealer brought it back to me. 1 week later it happens again, dealer says- you take it in I'll sort it. So I take it down...

Some of you may remember my first post here talking about getting a TD5 Auto today (I posted yesterday) Well, after my test drive yesterday I was quite happy. I drove it home today, from reading to fleet, so not the longest journey, although it was at rush hour! 100M from home I went...
