    Part numbers and paint colours

    Hi all, Not sure what part I need, might be overthinking it. The doors on my landy have never really fit correctly on aftermarket door seals- so I'm going to try OEM. trouble is- I have changed the doors from the old split doors to the more modern one piece. Which one should part should I be...

    Fast idle speed (tick-over) + other queries!

    Hi Lynall, So the symptoms I had before I reset the pump was a bumpy idle, and I had to put my foot down to clear it in the mornings- I had to adjust the idle cable to get it to run faster which was a temporary fix for the bumpy idle. What I'm baffled with is why would it suddenly decide to...

    200 TDI cluch pedal randomly not engaging

    Hi guys, just reporting back on this- just in case somebody else runs into similar problems and finds this thread. Everything logically should have meant the clutch was working fine after carrying out all the above jobs... But it didn't... After resetting the clutch, bleeding it and all the...

    Fast idle speed (tick-over) + other queries!

    Good morning all, I have recently changed the timing belt on my 200 TDI, during which I did a reset of the pump which appeared to be advanced a few teeth (lined up with the flywheel etc). I had fueling problems prior to this (bumpy idle) but this problem seemed to be resolved once I reset the...

    Land rover discovery 2 clutch push rod too long?

    Good afternoon, Just a quick question regarding the slave cylinder push rod, or pin : When I push the slave cylinder on to the push rod it needs force to push it on, the rod pushes the piston back in the slave, by quite a way so in a sense, there is constant pressure there. Is this correct...

    Discovery 2 Clutch failure

    Thanks Sierra, Might sound like a dumb question, but I took the pipe off the back of the slave cylinder expecting the reservoir to empty but it's still full... Is there a drain plug that I'm missing somewhere? Thank you!

    Discovery 2 Clutch failure

    Good evening everyone. The clutch on my Discovery 2 1999 has failed- about a year ago I had a Roadspec LOF clutch fitted, by a garage and ever since then it has been slipping when I really put my foot down. Now it has completely stopped working, put the clutch down, nothing happens but...

    200 TDI cluch pedal randomly not engaging

    Thanks guys, appreciate the help! I managed to get it all back in and sorted, you were correct Dag, lots of swearing but fortunately no splitting of said box! in the end I put some masking tape over the shaft so that the plastic clip couldn't move back up the shaft, then I put a 10mm deep...

    Discovery 2 1999 key fob replacement + coding

    Sadly not 😞 the original fob is missing the button switch on the actual chip board. The other has really bad corrosion. I have tried soldering parts off each other to no avail. Thanks Stanley

    200 TDI cluch pedal randomly not engaging

    Hi guys, I have taken everything apart ready for a new slave and master cylinder. The top fluid was indeed black, but I think my problem was a little more than just that. When I took off the slave cylinder, I pulled the slave clear out, but the pin inside came out with it. Thankfully out...

    200 TDI cluch pedal randomly not engaging

    Hi Lynall, If the fluid is black, would that mean replace the fluid or swap out slave+ master? Thanks Lynall,

    Think I'll give it a go. Did you keep the coder, and is it possible to have two keys supplied?

    200 TDI cluch pedal randomly not engaging

    Hi all, I have a 200 TDI defender which has been sat for a few weeks on my driveway. I jumped in to move the old girl and it wouldn't let me push into gear... I can feel resistance when I push the pedal down, but nothing happens, slight change in noise from the thrust bearing, but physically...

    Discovery 2 1999 key fob replacement + coding

    Interesting, and to be honest... Far cheaper than going to a dealer. Have you used that particular site before? No problems with the new fob or alarm? Thanks Anaconda, massively appreciated!

    Discovery 2 1999 key fob replacement + coding

    Hi everyone, Unfortunately both key fobs for central locking have died and I'm not sure how I go about replacing them. I have seen online that I can buy a new fob with the chip, but how do I program one? Alternatively what cost would I be looking at for a replacement from Land Rover? Any...

    Stripped radiator thread

    I shouldn't say that really, It'll probably go wrong again now... Looking at the fittings you've posted pictures of above, wouldn't the last picture be the fitting I'm after? As both the male and female ends will be curved? Also, will I need a washer?

    Stripped radiator thread

    That's where it got me confused, The pipes I have would be 200 tdi, but coupled up with a 300tdi rad connection? So it's been the wrong connection the whole time I've had it...
