Thanks for clearing things up. We aren't too familiar with maps and the TD5 ECUs. My friend was concerned that that the tune was too agressive for his stock internals since we had no idea what it was like, so he would have liked to know more about it. Seemed pretty mild to me though.

So, my friend has come to possess an ECU that the previous owner said was given a "mid-range map" in the U.K. but didn't know by whom or what company. My buddy has test driven it and says it clearly has been chipped. The only thing about it that could lead to some answers is a warranty sticker...

Now that i've put some miles on it, I can say it is a completely different vehicle, and the High range gearing is surpisingly tall.🤔 Turns out the low clutch bite point actually just needed to be worn in because I got a brand new one, flyhwheel included. Weirdly enough this is the very first...

She drives! I drove 30km to my buddys house and everything worked good. No lights or codes. Backed it up for the last time in my garage with the auto box just 9 days ago. Things I still need to take a look at: 1. Trim the center console and make a plate to cover the hole left by the auto box...

Thanks! I actually tried to pull it out before but it was really stiff so i gave up. Looks like i just needed courage.

Now... I'm not great at this whole thread making thing and i keep forgetting to take pictures. Haha. I mainly want to share the things I have not seen other people do or show. That being said, the manual box is now installed, I took out the auto box loom (3 taped up plugs) that goes under the...

That's pretty much it. I had 2 levers laying around so I thought why not. Also 2 levers looks cooler. 😎

Rough around the edges but it works. You might notice that i had to shave down one of the levers quite a bit for it to fit.

Holy moly the drop was easy with an engine lift.

Got creative with the angle grinder... I will be repurposing the extra high-low lever and the actuator wire I have. There's just enough room on the gear lever plate for two of them. Thanks @Dervishi for the advice. .

It's a boy! Finally found time to take it out. Quite a heavy lad... This one has a locker, which my main disco is missing. Also I got my hands on a NNN500250 ECM... last picture is of the nasty rust damage.

Alright I'm back. Happened to find a guy not too far away who was selling his used nanocom, that's coming in the mail. My auto disco doesn't have the clutch switch wiring, I guess I'm going to use the wiring from the donor 01. Any recommendation on from where I should get the 15p manual ecu...

No, I don't have a nanocom... been planning on getting one for a good while now, seems like it's time to pull the trigger. I need to read up on that clutch switch circuit too.

Can you direct me to a good thread about the security code and fuel maps.

Sorry about abandoning this thread, completely forgot about posting it. After almost 3 years I'm back though :) The problem was the XYZ switch, oxidation had gotten into the contact surfaces. This fix wasn't as bad as I expected, taking the switch out was the hardest part as it is in a tight...
