    Replacement Disco 2 vanity mirror bulbs

    OK, after 2 hours fruitless searching, does anyone know where I can get repalcement bulbs for the passenger vanity mirror on a Disco 2? The bulbs are a little wierd at being 12v 1.2w. The only site I could find with one similar is in Swedish!! Help?!

    2001 Disco EGR Blanking Plate Confusion

    This is the problem. The pipe is in one single piece and runs from one side of the engine to the other. Both ends are very inacessable without the removal of some hoses on either end.

    2001 Disco EGR Blanking Plate Confusion

    OK, so I ordered a blanking plate off the iternet and it duly arrived today. Seeign as it was such a fine evening and as I'd spent the past few days reading up on the not too hard task of fitting it I popped the bonnet and removed the engine cover...and stared. Someting was not quite right...

    Front power socket won't accept smaller USB adaptors

    That's what I thought, but using tin foil to extend an adapter? Seriously? I've got experiance of what happens when tin foil solutins go awry -see pic: Scammell Commander where someone allegedly had a 'temporary' fuse made from foil which then caused the entrire engine bay to catch fire. Not...

    Front power socket won't accept smaller USB adaptors

    OK, before I storm off and be forced to buy an ugly power socket splitter I just wanted to see if I'm missing something here. The front power socket (I'll not call it a cigarette lighter) works perfectly and accepts most of my chargers for various devices. Howerver, when I try and use my small...

    Anyone have a part number for door roll pins?

    My Disco makes the annoying door pop noise when opeing and closing most doors, particularly the drivers, and last night whilst Googling I found the solution inclusing part numbers and links etc to the door slider roll pins. A quick check on the doors confirmed that this tiny, cheap (bonus!) and...

    2001 Disco ODB Trip Computer

    You're right, I do work with databases (amongst other things). Bit of a Freudian slip there I think :) Time for some editing!

    Ah. Bugger. So I take it devices such as Scan Gauge et al are not going to work then :(

    2001 Disco ODB Trip Computer

    Well, I've just spent my first weekend with my new Discovery (my first) and am overjoyed to find that it behaves perfectly - for now :) and has not left a mass of fluids on my drive. Now, one thing that took me by surprise was that I tried to use the Android app Torque Pro it connected to the...

    Buying my first Discovery. What else to check?

    Hmm. Best I start posting new threads about seperate issues!

    Buying my first Discovery. What else to check?

    Hmm. I've seen plenty of threads on other LR forums where Disco 2 owners are complaining of fuel in teh sump and expensive repairs due to cracked heads. It would be a releif to be told this was a myth or certainly not as endemic as I was led to belive.

    Buying my first Discovery. What else to check?

    Oh, and I think it may only come with one key. What would be the cheapest option for getting a spare key setup? My Lexus was a right rip-off with them only available from main dealers. Not cheap!

    Buying my first Discovery. What else to check?

    The answer is quite simple. I've been driving around looking for a few weeks now and almost every Disco I've seen is a pup. Whether it's been in an absolute state or had no documentation, paper trail or serviceing ('I've looked after it myself') and I've found bugger all oil/coolant in it. Oh...

    Buying my first Discovery. What else to check?

    The dealer (a reputable dealer just north of Preston where I live) is dealing with the ACE issue before any sale takes place, but I would be interested to know how much a conversion kit would cost to fit as I can afford to buy one. As regards ab ODB reader, i do have Torque Pro and an ODBII...
