    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    This is double dutch to me but will do some research and learn more as it's interesting. More detail may help: 2004 TD5 which was a minter when I got it a few years back (still very nice condition). Have spent a lot (chassis replacement for one thing!) I sent ECU to Dynachip. Was never happy...

    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    Sorry, looked at all pages and couldn't find this. Found 'Dealer Portal', is that what you mean? So I need to apply for an account and then may be able to download original map?

    Disco 2 Time for new turbo?

    Do you still rate this? What is the difference? I am looking for affordable ways (IF any exist, I suspect not!) to reduce the turbo lag on my D2 manual. I hate the lack of power until it all kicks into life, which only happens at revs that I don't normally drive at. I'd like quicker response...

    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    Great thanks, will have a look Didn't realise that In that case it sounds like the map is the problem. Funnily enough, I have always had a plume of whitish smoke when under engine braking (like downhill holding a lower gear). It worried me at first (head gasket) but that's fine. The car has...

    That's an idea I hadn't thought of. Hopefully will avoid it being necessary but a nice idea i may consider if needed.

    Is Mike from Dynachip.co.uk still around?

    Thanks. Have to say I was never happy with my remap, no disrespect to Mike, I didnt send ECU back to adjust or anything. I ended up having another one 6-12 months later which is a lot better, but now I need my original map back if poss so was hoping he may have a copy of it he could send me to...

    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    I need an original D2 Manual map, or just need to see the 'insides' of one to manually adjust mine so it passes emissions. Don't suppose anyone knows of one lying around I can take a few settings from? (My D2 was remapped, but I don't have the backup of the original map, which I now need to put...

    Is Mike from Dynachip.co.uk still around?

    The website is down. He was suggested to me a few years back on here. I sent my ECU to him and he remapped it. Looks like he's disappeared for good but wondered if anyone here knows him or has any contacts for him.

    D2 - Constant 'Lights On' Chime sounding when driving - any ideas?

    Thanks, yes I know what Hill Descent Control is and what a Transfer Box, just didn't equate your abbreviations to them as I never use them, but I know they're there! That's a very easy thing to check, I'll do it now!.... HOLY sh** - You're a genuis! It was indeed pushed in, no idea how, but...

    D2 - Constant 'Lights On' Chime sounding when driving - any ideas?

    Thanks very much. Could you just let me know what HDC is and also TB, I will look into it tomorrow and report back. By the way, a new gearbox was fitted just a few days prior. And also, bit of new info today maybe... when the noise goes off after a while, if I open the driver's door the...

    D2 - Constant 'Lights On' Chime sounding when driving - any ideas?

    2004 D2 Suddenly yesterday the chime alarm started sounding, the one I usually hear when I leave keys in ignition or lights on engine off. No idea why, it comes on when I turn key to position 2 and/or start engine. It chimes constantly when driving, I haven't tested extensively yet but so far it...

    D2 Faulty Fuel Gauge?

    My 2004 Landmark D2 seems to have a fuel gauge issue. I went out yesterday and when i left town the light came on even though the needle was on around a quarter (not in red). It's only 3 miles to home so it didn't concern me. Since then I did one journey around 5-6 miles, then yesterday it...

    Thanks SF. I had a decat pipe fitted already, so I think that means that problem's been solved already. Thanks again

    Disco 2 DPF?

    Thanks. Someone told me they thought the changeover year would probably have one, if not that saves me a job! Hopefully someone can confirm.

    Disco 2 How do I fit Bosch wipers, FFS?!

    DAMMIT!! My mate popped round last week to say "scrapping my D1, just wondered if you want any bits". It was a bit of a heap so I said no thanks. FFFFFFFFS! I have exactly that problem. My lovely almost mint D2 has a horrible looking back windscreen thanks to scratches. I have wondered why...
