I sold my 2002 Disco ES TD5 some years ago and even though it seemed to have no end of niggling faults I have regretted it ever since. Had a Jag X-Type and Mazda RX8 since so slightly different driving experience. Unfortunately my budget is now only around 5-6k, so whilst the last Disco I...

Does anyone use or have used any of the car insurers that specialise in 4x4's etc? Been on MoneySupermarket and the quotes on there as same as my renewal with Halifax so thought it may be checking with some of the 4x4 guys or are they simply gimmicks?

I dont know whether I have moved something slightly when over zealously polishing the auto gear selector (although I doubt it) but in PARK and 1st the light comes on and then goes off and sometimes then PARK fails. Its obviously not clicking in correctly and sometimes only needs a slight wiggle...

My drivers side front window regulator is broken and need to replace. I have been told that the aftermarket parts are pretty ****e and that although the Landrover part is obviously a known problem (!!) its better than the rest? Seen some on eBay knocking about for £35ish....compared to around...

Just like to give a heads up to a fellow member (clutch dust) who firstly diagnosed a problem over the forum for me and carried out the works for peanuts compared to what a garage would have done for fault finding etc. Good to see inexperienced Disco owners like myself being helped out by...

Hi Got a TD5 on an automatic and just had a JE Chip installed which has increased the drivability of it no end (coming off roundabouts, overtaking JCB's etc) I didnt expect it to work miracles but mpg doesnt seem to have improved. Now before anyone says, I have driven the car exactly the...

I posted a thread on here a while ago about water coming into the footwell. I have pressured washed the car since but found no obvious signs of entry although no one in the car at time, used newspaper as a guide to where was wet. Anyway, at the weekend I had parked the car with engine...

Hi Only had my 52 discovery for around two weeks. Driving home today and we had a major thunderstorms and the roads were awash with some massive puddles. Anyway rain stopped and about fifteen minutes into my journey I could feel my left foot get extremely hot. It was up against the centre...

Taking my Disco to a local non franchis specialist today, originally made appointment because of faulty brake lights which I have now sorted, but one of the headlights is leaking slightly as well, and someone has chewed one of the screws that clips it back into the bumper so it doesnt go in...

Finally purchased a Discovery, really happy with it too but on getting back home, even though I checked most electrics spotted a fault. The rear lights work, but when the brake pedal is applied the rear lights go out, and only one brake light is working being drivers side. The brake light...

Anyone used it and is it any good? I gather the display is not great as its quite small? Its in a 2002 Disco which I am going to view tomorrow. I have my eye on two ES models and cant really decided between them without seeing them of course. However this one has the GPS fitted which I do tend...

Hi Sorry another question from me.....I have been scouring ads etc in readiness for buying my first Disco. Set my heart on an ES TD5 model now. One thing I have noticed is most of the ES models seem to have the standard "square" headlights. Then I see some GS/XS models with the really nice...

Hi All, As the subject, I am thinking of purchasing my first Land Rover and in particular a Disco. My head says no as I have heard and read about so many reliability issues, but I just love the look of them and nothing else does it for me which has 7 seats!! I've got about 11k to spend, but...
