I have just replaced the fuel pump on my Disco, it seems to be idling better, and runs smoother. Is it just my imagination.? The old pump was sounding like a washing machine, and when l took it out it was almost black.

I was wondering if the front tow eye could be removed,and replaced with a jate ring. As far as can tell, the tow eye is bolted on to the bumper with 2 bolts.

I mentioned green laning to my sister who has a RAV 4, if she goes with should l take recovery equipment with me. :D

Thank you for all the advice, l will be taking a more serious look at doing some green laning now. I know what the Disco is capable of, but l really don't fancy wading through 4 foot deep rivers of mud and going up and down ravines. Green laning seems much more civilised.

As the title says l am new to this, only bought Disco to tow a boat, but it seems such a waste. So l was thinking of going green laning. Do l need to join a club, or become a member of GLASS, or do l just go to a chosen site, and be responsible as per guidelines? Clint.

Thank you for that, l was worried it might be an expensive gearbox fault.

Thanks for that, at least it's one less thing to worry about. I thought it might be some serious gearbox fault.

Every time l change down from 5th, l get a very distinctive clicking noise from somewhere on the gearbox. (It only happens in 5th) My reverse lights are also not working. Could the 2 be related. Ie: reverse light switch?

I am thinking of blocking off the EGR, is it MOT legal, l have seen confusing threads all over the internet. What is the truth?

I have been searching for some new UJ's for my disco 2 Td5, and have noticed a massive difference in price, from about £9.00 for an aftermarket part to almost £80.00 for a genuine LR part. Why is there such a huge difference. Discovery 2 Propshaft at www.rimmerbros.co.uk

Thanks all, panic over then.

Thanks for the advice. Like I said, I'm always skeptical. If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

Rimmer make some bold claims, and attach an hefty price tag as well. Is it all hype or does it really work. I am naturally sceptical of anything that says"an increase of 25bhp, and 42nm torque" just by plugging this in. Has anyone fitted it, and noticed a difference? Power Box 2 - Diesel Fuel...

What causes the strange whirring noise from the back of a Disco 2 when the ignition is on, I was checking the lights, and other things, and this whirring noise seems to come from somewhere under the body, it sounds like some sort of servo motor. (TD5 T-reg)

Thanks for that, I found it and had a go at adjusting it, seems better already, I mistook the transfer box in the picture for a drum brake.:doh: I will take your advice and change the bulbs first, before I go any further. I think we have the same copy of RAVE.
