well after searching and ringing today i think ive got more chance of finding hens teeth, or spend £350 upwards plus vat for a new non LR one, or £250 plus vat for a used one if my local breakers get one in, when i only payed a £1000 for the car. looks like im going to have to go heavy duty, its...

as said above, i decided to have a fight with my fence this morning, and the disco lost. ive smashed a o/s/f indaicator lense (which im going to buy new) but i need a early disco 2 td5 front bumper please, as close to hull as possible or wherever if your willing to post it. thanks

Yeah im not saying there all rubbish, the ones ive seen/dealt with that have the remote start etc have all been the cheapest of cheap ebay jobs that dont seem to last very long, ive had a couple that i have had in thats failed thats all, but as i say cheap universal tat, even the decent...

Plus if the disco has a immobiliser it will need to sense the chip in the key first before allowing to start. so remote would be no good in that case

Yeah ive seen the remote alarms. but the ones ive seen on some of my customers bikes annoy the hell outta me with all the chirping they do. plus ive had a few customers with non starts because of these units failing after a month or two. thats not to say yours will the car ones might be...

Get a turbo timer. Just get one you can preset your own time on. i think mine in the celica goes up to 10-15 min in manual mode. you can start the car, set the timer and then remove your key from the ignition and lock her back up. they have safety features built in so if the handbrake is...

My disco td5 ran without my in tank fuel pump when it packed up. it wasnt working at all, i got from york back home to hull. and drove around about 15miles on the next day because it was a sunday and couldnt get a pump until monday. Fired up fine even when stone cold, idled fine. just couldnt...

Thats great cheers. i will have a look to see if mine has the wiring for the HK amp then

Hi. sorry if it has been posted but i did a search and couldnt find a definate answer for me. Im slowly upgrading the stereo in my disco and was looking at amplifiers that came with them. i know the harmon kardons came with the top models which have a hk amp. but ive also seen standard...

Yes the sender is part of the pump. and its not that hard really to get out if you wanted to inspect it. theres info on here about it (im pretty sure it was here) i searched and found what i needed when my pump gave up and i swapped it

I may be wrong but i believe the level sender in the tank has alot of contact patches that the sender float arm slides against and it shows the level on the gauge by the different resistance of each contact point. the top one in yours might be broken/dirty/faulty so not reading anything and the...

I find it strange only having four but hey it works. and when i said colder i meant outside temp. mine misses very slightly first thing if its been a cold night. but only for a sec or two

Im sorry if im going in the wrong direction here but dont the td5's only have 4 glow plugs. is it just the 5th cylinder is taking a few seconds to catch up due to it getting colder? This is only a guess though just thought i would give it a mention

Sorry to thread jack but just wanted to say thanks because i could do with one of these myself. does anybody know if theres anything i should need when fitting one of these. are they just bonded? will i need any special tools? Or is it best left to "proffesional" windscreen fitters that...

i may be wrong as i havent checked in a mot manual but im sure i remember being told it has to have a least one silencer fitted to meet mot standards. dont hold me to it because it was just something i was told, but if its true and you are doing it bear in mind your going to need one for mot time

i got a cheap one the other day and fitted it, spot on and quieter than the origional but i think thats because the oe one was on its way out. fuel gauge read totaly wrong, apparently i went from a 1/4 tank on oe pump to running on fumes with the non oe, i swapped the senders over and its fine...

Just thought i would let you know fuel pump has cured it. thanks for all the help james

Cheers that sounds exactly the same. looks like new pump it is. cheers

Thanks for all the help guys. in responce to a couple of questions. i havent measured fuel pressure as yet as ive not got a fuel pressure gauge, the disco has 130. 000 miles on it and the reason i swayed away from the injectors is i cant hear the fiel pump priming anymore. i checked my step...

thank you very much for the offer, but your about a couple of hours away from me, im in Hull and dont quite fancy running down there doing 40mph lol it would take more like 3-4 hours but again thanks for the offer its much appretiated
