    TD5 Disco issues under load (towing)

    Yes I stand corrected,you should do oil change as per rave :) but i merely meant warm as in running I was more thinking along the lines of check the level and topping up rather than oil change . That's why I said get it warm 1st and cycle through gears and then top up to work out how low the...

    Has a few problems

    3, Flange not drains to be more specific would this cause water to suddenly gush out of the NSF seat belt trim after the LR has stood overnight in rain fall? If so in regards to sealing it what is preferred sealant fix? When the roof seal goes (frame to roof) the water fills the drip channel...

    This is leaking, what is it please.

    Really could do with giving it a good clean up ,so you can see how bad the pipe is , also have you looked to see how low the fluid level is

    Auto drive mystery???

    Sounds like your xyz switch is playing up or maybe a bit lose . It's on the passenger side of the box . I would have a feel and even give it a clean with some electric contact cleaner on the plug

    door card

    A trim removal tool is best.cheap to buy as well . But just find yourself 2 flat bladed objects slide one in between the card and the door them move it along till you meet one of the pop studs/clips then slide the other tool in about an inch the other side and lever it off till it pops . Once...

    TD5 remote locking not working

    I agree with sierrafery . Damp / condensation is a real killer to the remote receiver in the roof it's just to the passenger side in front of rear sunroof . Easy to get to . I took mine out opened it up and popped a little silica packet in after mine started playing up on damp days been fine...
