    1999 TD5 Misfire

    A common fault that causes a misfire on a TD5 is oil getting in the injector harness via worn o-rings. It is easy to check for too. Take off the battery cover and you will see the ECU next to the jack. Remove one screw to remove the ECU then unplug the red plug that goes into it. If there is...

    If you are planning on balancing the whole car on one axle stand then I would go for the 3T ones. :D

    Leaking

    A few people ask on the various forums about this process, it would probably be helpful if you post back and tell us how much this is costing you (mine was done before I bought it).

    Disco2 Factory Fit DVD player

    DO you have the RAVE CD? If not you can download it from the green oval site. This includes a full workshop manual for the D2 and also has accessory fitting guides (including the roof mounted DVD player). It may help with the power thing.

    Need help sorting my Disco out - purleeezzzeee :)

    1. Check fuses? 2. No you don't. Google for "land rover rave" and download it. It includes accessory fitting guides. 3. Take door rubbers off and then you can easily release the clips that hold the trim in place. Take it off and refit it making sure you line the mechanism up properly. 4...

    There is a number you can call if you think the vehicle hasn't been tested properly or if you feel the MOT is in any way dodgy, the number might be on your MOT cert. Phone it and they will give your car a proper test and the garage that passed the car will have some explaining to do if...

    TD5 coolant and ACE issues

    Get on your knees and look under the car drivers side between the drivers door and rear passenger door. If ACE is fitted you will see the pump attached to the outside of the chassis. If it has been removed all you will see is an electrical connector hanging down. Also as UP says, look in the...

    TD5 coolant and ACE issues

    Hi, I had the exact same thing happen to me. 2 days after buying my discovery a mate who also has a TD5 came round to take a look. We opened the bonnet to check fluid levels and much to my horror the ACE was completely empty. On closer inspection we found out the ACE system had been...
