    Extended brake hoses

    I have 3 out of 4 of the Goodridge braided hoses you need for a Disco 2 still in the box. 2x short and 1 x long Had to get a running replacement for one whilst on the move and never got round to replacing the others. Offers? before they go to the Bay

    D2 XYZ switch queries

    I thought I'd sourced a replacement from the States but found they'd only ship it within the USA!!!!!! I sourced a new (genuine) one from UK but still occaisionally get the same problem:( So I've got the old one still in the garage but don't know how to test to see if it's OK. Perhaps I will...

    heat damaged wiring loom.

    I'm having a bit of trouble with the engine overheating. I knew I was losing a bit of water every week (maybe half a pint or so) but nothing obvious so I just monitored the situation. Out a couple of weeks back the red temperature guage light came on without warning (the temp was shown as normal...

    "M" and "S" lights illuminated on dash when started engine

    Mine does this every now and then, I changed the XYZ switch and it still occurs every so often, sometimes for a day or so on 'limp home' mode. I'm convinced it's the wiring somewhere but currently it's OK so I can't get anyone to check for a problem that's not there at the moment.:confused:

    CB Radio

    They say one of the most useful inventions was the telephone (personaly I think the most useful would have been the 2nd telephone!). equally I have a single CB Radio When I bought my Disco 2 it had a CB Radio fitted. I don't know how to use it and as I don't know anyone else with one it...

    Anyone fitted a bigger intercooler?

    Woah there! you're talking to a cheapskate here! I wasn't thinking of buying one! I've already got a high performance intercooler (picked up from a motorsport mate for the price of a pint:)) that will (just) fit behind the grill. My thoughts are to remove the std one then see if there's any...

    Anyone fitted a bigger intercooler?

    I'm looking for pictures of a TD5 Disco 2 with a bigger intercooler fitted. Mine is an Auto with A/C and I think I can get one in front of the current Radiator but the A/C condensor will get in the way:( Better to speak to someone who's 'been there done that' as I'm wondering if there's a bit of...

    HID Kit on TD5 Facelift Legal?

    I retro fitted them to my last car (V70R Volvo) and performance wise they were the biz!!!! The only thing stopping me fitting them to the Disco2 is the light washers are no longer there (winch bumper) so with a bit of road dirt on them they'd produce a lot of light scatter towards oncoming...

    Should I buy a Disco 3?

    Yes! it is by far the most accomplished and versatile family 'car' out there. I get just over 25 mpg from mixed urban driving which is good for such a big vehicle (2.7 tonnes!!). Full service hstory is more important than mileage and the benefit of more miles is that most of the electrical...

    dreaded 'M' & 'S' light flashing!!!!

    starts on the slightest turn of the key so I'm wondering if the use of the winch without the engine running just dropped the voltage to trip the fault code. The 'M' & 'S' lights haven't come back for a couple of days (touch wood) but this post has probably put the jinx on that!!!

    hi lift jack

    As above ditto + you need to count your fingers before and after using it if you forget the drill as they have the potential to remove digits!!!!!
