My Land Rovers are both Discovery 2's so I don't have a VCU, surly Land Rover have an official recommended test for the hand brake.

My 2001 Disco has 110,000 miles and my 2003 Disco has 118,000

Has anyone got the official Land Rover Parking Brake test procedure, over our car test (Like UK MOT) used the following:- Decelerometer Test If the vehicle is of a type which cannot be tested on the roller brake test machine, it should be subject to a decelerometer test as follows: &#8226...

I can't remember what springs I fitted but when the are the wrong way around you will know. I fitted new springs to my 2001 Disco about 8 weeks ago and the first time I fitted them the back was about 20mm lower than it was with the old springs. Swapped them with the front and it lifted the back...

Found it, thanks for your help, turned out to be a cable trapped between the HD bumper and the body. Rejoined the cable and covered the joint in waterproof heat shrink and all is now good. Thanks for your help.

On my 2001 Td5 Disco I have a problem, if I turn on the laft flasher the fuse goes bang. Removed left relay and now as I would expect the flasher will not work but the right flasher is working fine. A few weeks ago we had the socket for the trailer moved and the guy welded it to the new...

I have this problem too, but I don't have a sunroof.

My TD5 has a horn for the alarm and 2 in the grill

I bought a turbo off them 2 years ago and it was about £30 cheaper an another supplier, it's been fine, I would have no problem using them again. Paddocks on the other hand I'm ****ed off with, placed and order with them last Thursday, rang them to sort out shipping(I live in Ireland), was told...

If it has air bags on the back, check that they are not leaking, check roof lining to make sure no rain is getting in above the windscreen in the corners, both my Discos have had leaks there.

3 pin (MHK100600) or 4 pin(MHK100820) when you are standing in front looking at the engine the air filter box is in your right, the sensor is fitted to the left side of the air filter box.

Could you get the pulley machined out to take a taperloc bush? Years ago I used to work with a machine that had a timing pulley that would work loose and mess up the shaft every 5 or 6 months, so I had the old pulley machined out to take a taperloc bush and never had a problem with it after that.

James, thanks for your help. Transfer box is 1.4, that's why the revs are so high, now I have to work out what to do on a limited budget. I am akin the whole family to the Uk in Aug in the Disco and getting married in Nov and now have to fine the money to replace bothe the gear box and the...

Rain stopped and just checked the numbers on the transfer box, only 2 part numbers as listed below, I think I seen where the number should be but the hand brake cable has rubbed it off. Only numbers I found are frc5415uk & frc6104 there are no other numbers on it, think it's a bit of a recoup...

Thanks James, will check in the morning as it's raining now.

Where on the transfer box will I find a number to tell me what it is, my thoughts are it might be one off a D1 cos on the Ashcrofts calc if I select D1 (34D) it show the same rpm/mph as I have.

Last year I was in the UK, drove Pembroke to Reading and when I was on the M4 found the ruts in the show lane, we don't have them in Ireland. Anyway this spring I fitted a polybush kit and soon after I had to take the Disco to Ashcrofts in Luton, when on the M4 and in the ruts in the slow lane I...

Prop turns 1 3/4 for 1 rev of the wheel, so it's not the diffs.

Just been to the Ashcrofts website and mused the ratio calculator and it looks like I might have 4.11 diffs fitted, how can I tell what diffs are fitted in my Disco?
