    Brilliant. Thank you

    Disco 2 How do you fit the ****ing A pillar trims?

    You are absolutely right, but there are a number of factors which put me off doing this: 1. The fitter is in Inverness which is 120 miles from where I live. It doesn't bother me that they'd have to make the long trip, just it is not easy for me to, and I don't have time nor motivation to...

    Disco 2 How do you fit the ****ing A pillar trims?

    Also, does anyone have a photo of which way round the spring clips go? My situation is that I had a windscreen fitted through my insurance, to find that the fitter didn't install one pillar trim correctly (none of the clips were affixed), he left holes at the edges of the gutters, and he didn't...

    Disco 2 How do you fit the ****ing A pillar trims?

    I'm having the same issue as the original poster. But have been unable to do it after sleeping on the problem. I wouldn't part with my Disco 2, and would hate to have to replace it. But, I just cannot properly re-fit these A-pillar trims. The video doesn't show whether there is any gap at the...

    Multiple water leaks Discovery 2

    Good thread and some nice welding. I am currently trying to solve the same issue: water ingress at the outer edge of both front footwells on my Discovery 2. On comments about the "inner wing to bulkhead area as a culprit", is this due to water splashing up from the wheel arch while driving in...

    Side Finisher Spring Clips

    I'm trying to locate the source of water ingress from the front of my Discovery 2 TD5. Well, I say from the front, specifically it is evident as continuously wet patches on the outer sides of both front seat carpets, but I haven't yet traced where it is coming in. Having recently had a new...

    Discovery 2 Advice on Brake Servicing

    Sorry for this simple question, and that it's been a long time before I've got round to the job. But, 'sliders': are these the two bolts (one upper and one lower) which when removed open up the calipers? They are called 'guide pins' in the Haynes manual. I've had a go on one wheel, taking out...

    Can someone please tell me where the OBD port is please (Discovery 2 2001TD5)? I've searched for a good hour, in both footwells. Thanks.

    Disco 2 Td5 3 amigos

    The three amigos have today appeared on my Discovery 2 TD5. I've searched this forum and I'll try the shuttle valve wiring option first (as I'll need to take it to a garage to get the code read). What I haven't been able to find out is whether the truck is likely okay to drive, for short...

    Fuel Leak, Kink in Pipe.

    I've just found this: (YNI500030K) https://www.johncraddockltd.co.uk/yni500030-k-fuel-pipe-kit-to-repair-the-green-fuel-pipe-td5.html That has answered my question.

    Fuel Leak, Kink in Pipe.

    Thanks for everyone's help. I removed the fuel tank. Those side brackets didn't need loosening (they just restrained the tank at the top), but I did have to remove the tow bar bracket. It was indeed, also, the green fuel pipe that was leaking. Someone had previously patched it up. Good news is...

    Fuel Leak, Kink in Pipe.

    Thanks. Of course, I can see now why there is no need to remove the sender unit. So, it might be a stupid question, but do I need to remove those brackets on either side of the tank (as per my photo above) please? I'd rather not start trying to free up the rusted bolts if the tank comes out...

    Fuel Leak, Kink in Pipe.

    Thanks. NTC5859 is the part. On attempting to take the fuel tank out, I've removed the four bolts that hold the cradle in place, and according to the RAVE manual the tank should be loose enough to come out. Mine isn't. I assume that the two brackets on either side of the tank are holding it to...

    Fuel Leak, Kink in Pipe.

    My fuel tank leak is getting worse so have decided to take the tank out and investigate. I thought that it would give me better access to the rear chassis so I could give it a good clean and underbody seal at the same time. Can someone please advise on the following: 1. In the Haynes manual it...
