Black wire is neg - Depending on your vehicles spec D2s can have additional speaker in the front door card, the lower one is bass, the upper smaller one is mid range therefor there will be an amplifier installed to power all the loud speakers...

Fortunately now JLR vehicles have a dash display in the menu with an expected mileage before topping up is required. But you will still get a dash warning that a top up is required. If you still unsure then just top up the Adblue tank yourself...

Cheers mate.

Don’t expect a reply, the OP was on the forum for just a day in January and hasn’t been seen since. 😢

What year is it? 10P/15P? Assume you have done the fuel purge? How about air bleed valve? Also you shouldn't be using any throttle to start it If you post here also then more knowledgable people than me will be along I expect...

Ok that’s more than likely with that year of disco. My 87 RR had central locking but only via key in the drivers door lock. If you wish to go the remote route than you will a kit with ECU and 2x fobs and master actuator, which i used with my...

As the standard exhaust system at the tail end is shielded from the fuel tank by the the chassis which ever side of the vehicle it exits, so the joint for the two pipes plus the balance pipe would somewhere at the gearbox cross member area. V8...

I haven’t a clue either, the vehicle didn’t leave the factory like that. So, what model year is your D1as their are two central locking systems… the 200 series or 300 series both have a master actuator plus a slave in the remaining doors...

Nope haven’t got a clue, even after 27 years of owning my UK spec D1 But what your looking for is arrowed in the photo below, which of course shows a RHD vehicles location of the port when it left the factory.

Interesting if a D1 had a body control module 😊

No2 is a water proof wire connector, just remover the seal (rubber band) and twist pull to open if u haven’t done it so far, if not leave it if the circuit through it proves ok, old stuff has a habit of breaking when touched😊 My 1987 3.5 RR had...

Hi to you also. As you mentioned “dust” then I would expect air filters to be inspected more frequently and change as required. Cooling and all the stuff involved in the vehicles cooling system to be 100% all the time, here in the uk we use an...

The early RRs had the rear spring option what was called a “Police specification option” for additional weight carrying. D1 had anti roll bars and also had the rear spring option now simply called “HD” for additional weight carrying...

What a shame!

HID headlamps are a non-standard addition therefore the LR circuit diagram won't be applicable, but u can start checking the additional HID kit that will be installed somewhere at the front near the headlamps I suspect. Then as HID are not legal...

I don't suppose there is, but i’m sure the engine will let you know that there’s an issue with its camshaft… Tap Tap Tap😊 My 10 year old 3.5 RR engine did at 110k miles, but was fixed by my friendly LR dealer. So with a few other an niggly...

It’s the fuel return hose thats connected to the pressure regulator, therefore the fuel feed is a the rear of the offside fuel rail.

If you prove that the ignition module is at fault then depending on the engine you have will need to replace it, maybe one as shown below. STC1184G if your engine is RR classic or D1 On early engines it was screwed to the distributor, late...

Thank you very much!!!

Call them what you like, but Land Rover call the buckles 😊

As you have said earlier you had the A/C checked was ok by a specialist, but if you have climate control was that also checked to be functioning as it should.

The heater system installed in the 300 series D1 is an air blending system therefore the heater matrix is always the same hot temp as the engine coolant flowing through it, to control heat entering the cab is by turning the two temp controls...

For the two outer belts the shorter belt goes under the seat back and hooks or is bolted to the bracket (depends on your seat belts you have) just behind the seat back in the boot on the floor. The two short lap belts also are hooked or bolted to...

Had a chance to get under the disco and see what was going on, and thanks to Discool and the pic posted above 👍 I located the problem. The cable selector FTC566 had snapped at the end near the gearbox. Also the lever that attached to the...

So off road capable 4x4, seven seats and large carrying capacity, so a large and difficult to park vehicle 🤔 most manufacturers have something like that. Jaguar have been doing deals as their F Pace is discontinued and there will be a new...

How long is a piece of string? You’re looking for an alternative to a disco, but you rarely tow and rarely go off-road? So you could, in fact, have any car you like or can afford.

The LRO mag did a piece in the magazine in the early 2000s so way before forums. I expect a few of the other LR mag at the time did as well, but my subscription was with LRO from 1987 after I purchased my new RR

It part of a range rover sport wiring loom according to my very quick search of the part number. If location is behind the dash will be connected to a screen or head unit. So back to work, hopefully it helps 😊...

OK thank you, I'm literally going to give everything a try and this point in time

I certainly wouldn’t apply the EBP when driving, only when stationary on my vehicle. Did you follow the workshop manual to the letter, Ive had a quick read of cars manual although theres a bit on safety and it looked straight forward, but I...
