Sorry to hijack this thread but I am a new member and not sure how to post my own thread?
I have a td5 disco 02 auto and am at my wits end with it, I've had it for 15 months and it has been brilliant I love it!
About 3-4 months ago it started to play up, it would occasionally click (starter solenoid) and not start, after another attempt or 2 off it would go and it would drive without fault.
Over time this became more frequent until eventually it wouldn't start at all, just clicked,
I changed the battery and unaware of the kits I've read so much about on here since, I bought a new starter motor off fleabay, might be worth noting it was a pattern part.
Changed it over and it started! Reversed it off the ramps, turned it off, put ramps away got it car........Click!!!! Won't ****** start!
Called an auto electrician out this morning he tried all sort, direct feeds to starter, osb diagnostics, tested xyz switch the works, diagnosis....
Everything electrical works fine, he thinks the gearbox might be seized or have a mechanical fault preventing the flywheel from turning?!?
I am just at my wits end now. I want my landy back!ncan anybody please please please help??
