Me too I won't be looking either 🫣🙂

Hi, can you put a picture up of what you need ? There's a indie place near me that is scrapping a shell (chassis rotten so they used the TD5 eng. for a defender conversion )🙄. I was going to rob a few bits off it myself so can have a look/post pics, I know it's dark blue.

Mince ?🤣🤣

You better let us know tomorrow if you managed to ignore this thread.

Now we know how you ignore this thread whilst at work 😅.

If this was WW II I'd give you the job of painting our Lanc's etc just to out do the yanks with their Sally B B17's etc 🤣🤣 you'd whoop their butts & if the Krauts had a sense of humour they might just smile of seeing a picture of you in ya underpants on the engine cowl of a Spitfire just before...

Yeah never mind banksy he hasn't got a patch on @saxavordian LZ's resident cartoonist. Forgot to say I just joined ignoring whatever this threads about ! And please don't tell me to ignore it as I'm already doing it, so there.

Yuk🤮🤮.

Hi all, I had the D2 mot'd then re-taxed it at the end of February then set about replacing the leaking ACE pipe. The leaking pipe (bottom of the valve block) came out of the VB ok but despite it being one of the two piece pipes you have to take the pipe above it out as well because they're...

I Always make a note of where seals are sitting before removing old ones. As the originals would have been there the longest there may be some witness marks left to go by if LR did recess your ones.

Sorry you've had so much aggro. That was one of the first jobs I had to do on mine back in 2021 & I think it was NAK seal I used on SF's recommendation & it's been fine since. As said I did go over the shaft sealing area with some fine wet n dry. If I can find the receipt for the seals I'll post...

Yeah, Rockauto for mine as well

Yeah, would have loved to have got a Discovery Sport recently for daily use to compliment the D2 but after all the issues with that engine, knicker elastic timing chains, DPF issues (milage dependant) & ad blue system I went for a 2021 Mazda CX-5 Sport Active petrol. Like the op just getting a...

Hi, you used to be able to put your chassis no in, on the JLR website & get the build spec for any given vehicle (I used it on my 2001 D2 when I got it in 2020 but not sure if you still can). My D2 is the ES premium & was owned by a mate from new. He ordered it with genuine light bar/safari...

Don't forget proper cleaning can make all the difference, even when I take the wheels of any of the family's vehicles out comes the wheel cleaner (or wonder wheels depending on how bad they are) to get all the brake dust off ! Like you say always the longest bit of most jobs but we'll worth it...

Another ten bob in the meter to charge it, that's about all I can offer:rolleyes: ? Sorry to hear this, hope it's something simple 🤞.

BTW I'm not laughing at your misfortune just your description of what happened. I do absolutely admire what you've achieved,with a great dollop of envy, because I wouldn't know where to start & I'll admit I fall asleep trying to understand some of that coding malarkey 🙂. Keep up the good work &...

Hi all, having had a proper look at the leaking pipe (exactly where it goes to on the valve block) it actually goes to the bottom of the V/B to the ACE reservoir (one of the two piece pipes). According to the LR parts list (see link) I need pipe 14 (RQB000370) & pipe 12 (RQB000300) for diesel...

https://www.blackdownoffroad.co.uk/product/discovery-2-ace-pipe-2/ I've found this & it explains what pipes have the attenuator & what pipe goes where on the valve block.

Hi, looks like I need RQB000320 (top hole on valve block to ACE ram) as long as my 'quick look' at the pipes is right. I'll have a proper look at the weekend. Does anyone know if this is the pipe with the attenuator in it ? Typical these things happen just when the tax, £415, is due at the end...
