No further action required! Thanks anyway. My friendly local main dealer helped me out. So if anyone else needs the info just give me a shout.

Hi all, I have got hold of a second hand genuine tow-bar for my disco2 (P/N STC 50289) the only problem is it didn't come with any bolts :( I was wondering if someone could help by telling me what bolts are required to fit it to the car. Thanks in advance

I will have a look at the MAF sensor (I will search for how to check it) Thanks for the advice on nanocom / hawkeye I will save up the pennies, Does anybody in Aberdeen have one that I could have have a look at?

Thanks for the info, downloading the software would be a great way forward, can someone tell me where to get it? or indeed what it's called? so you think that TD5 is OBDII, so can I buy a code reader and just plug it in? as I believe that people have had problems trying to do it? I just don't...

Cheers guys, do chap code readers work on a disco TD5 Auto?? i was told they didn't

LOL, I can't stop laughing at your posts guys lol, yes that was some run right enough. The moon is nice this time of year ;-) Anyway, she has been running without any problems for the last couple of months. And I was driving in heavy rain for 2 1/2 hrs on Thursday last week and she did it...

I get about 400 ish out of my 51 plate ES TD5 auto

Thanks for the replys, I am just about to go out in it for a good run, so will post how it goes

Good evening all, I hope you all had a good Christmas and new year. I was driving along a country road in the dark tonight, their was a dip in the road which contained a very big puddle, probabley 20 ft long and about 8in deep, which as you can imagine made a very big splash, much to 5 year...

Good evening one and all, Well she failed her mot today :( , brake pipe (no big problem) But both upper and lower steering knuckle ball joints n/s/f, now I don't have a ball joint splitter / installer tool and was looking for some advice from anyone who has done the job, on what tool to...

Try WD-40 mate, it can remove sticky residue and you will probably have some anyway. :)

Good evening All, I know that I will probably get a heard time, and I know that this has been spoken about to death on various threads, but hear goes :) I downloaded a copy of the rave manual from green oval, however the workshop manual is for NAS vehicles and its mostly v8 info, I was looking...

It's a strange one right enough, I have had a look at where the separated and their is no sign of corrosion! It's just the swage that's let go. I am going to change the filter when it's empty anyway, I would not have thought that air would have been a problem due to the fact that the fluid is...

Well on my way in to Aberdeen today, driving at 60 (as usual) all of a sudden the revs shot right up and I lost all drive, I knocked the box into neutral and coasted to a stop just off the main road, before I even got out I knew it was an ATF leak due to the smell. So after looking under the...

I agree with Jamesmartins comment. The reason for the judder may be the fact that the the handbrake grabs the prop shaft (I think from memory) and their will be backlash in the transfer box and diff's before it stops the wheels.

I have just ordered a Bearmach one, its an OEM part :-) Have to say that although I have a lab and a retriever, Its main purpose will be so I can load the back up to the roof with camping stuff, and use bungees to put bits and bobs on :)

I understand what ACE is (thanks for the explanation anyway) so the reason for the different tire widths is to do with costs? I was thinking that it was to do with more grip in the road? hence the thought about ACE. my mate has the narrower tire and no ACE I have the wider tire and have ACE. I...

I am a bit confused about the different tire widths on the D2? I have an TD5 ES Auto with 255 55 18 width tires and my mate has a TD5 Manual, not sure which model. but his has 235 70 16 ??? I think that the difference between the wheel size is aesthetic?? but why the width difference?? is it...

Thanks for the comments, it's a big help :)
