Thanks for the info, due to pick up my 05 HSE on saturday, went there today and insisted all four corners were changed before collection. They were not interested at 1st, until i said my cheque would go to a rival dealer. So thats sorted now, great. bring it on

Hi all, and Charlsey!!!!!!:) , Got very serious bout buying a Disco 3 HSE, okay its a tad expensive, but its from a Dealer in Kent. Is there anything more I should look out for though. Any common faults with this model? Many thanks

this is definately nowt to worry about. Its the ABS check, and will be felt through the brake pedal

330 aint far off the normal for a auto td5

I have asked about the white replacements, apparently due to the sidelight bulb in the indicator (orange) it makes it illeagal if a clear indicator is used. Always a catch I guess

Remove the EGR, this has to be done without fail, cap it off with a plate from ebay. Doing this will nearly double MPG. I had mine done, and average 30-35mpg depending how I am driving. As for MOT inplications, mine just done and its emissions were 0.3 particles, pass limit is 1.9, so EGR...

by the kia, and when it gives up in a few months, by a Disco

ok, will order a new one off ebay, and try that.

Hi there, in the last few months my TD5 Auto has developed a tapping noise on acceleration. Cant hear it on tick over, or revved when bonnet up. Any ideas? Also I have all I can explain is two small push button switches on the steering cowel. one underneath and one on the side, can anybody...

Y plate TD5 auto, EGR removed and Hiclone fitted, get between 28-36mpg

Yep, sounds like a common fault. the worst is the contact plate behind the steering wheel. But I am led to think this is a prob under the passenger seat. Has the seat been moved recently?, mine did this and the stealers just unplugged the YELLOW multiplug, and reconnected it. This got rid of...

Cheers for that!!!!!

:D :D :D :D Says it all 482 miles covered before putting fuel in ( still had loads ) 59.68 ltrs added 108.9 a litre Equals 36.72 mpg, 13.48p per mile :D :D :D :D Well chuffed The Hiclones have helped I think, since fitting my AUTO TD5 goes into final drive at approx 45mph, and not the...

well here goes, did'nt realise I started such a popualar thread. Anyway, after having my Intercooler cleaned, EGR cleaned and blanked off, and two Hiclones fitted, one before turbo, and one after ( dont give me grief, they were recommended ok!!! ). Anyway, just put 59.68 ltrs in, covered 482...

The CAT? TD5's aint got one, early ones aint anyway

me done 270 miles so far, only 1/4 tank used, soooooooooo chuffed

I agree

Hybrid making me blush

2 cars, 2 insurance, 2 tax, 2 maintenence. No thanks, Landy only, when that gives up, get another

Sorry Charlsey, I wanted to seperate you beyond most as the depth, pleasant and helpful knowledge you give this website helps us all, and saves owners £1000's. Again, thank you. I was actually thinking the same thing, maybe not a great idea to fit both mod's as which is helping me I am...
