LR3 owner un Dundalk

Fitted a new battery and its seems to be turning fine and appears as if diesel is coming up ok (i checked the bleed pressure valve) but even with a squirt of easy start isn't firing on any cylinder but no dash warning messages except low coolant. A bit stumped !!!

Scrappy, thanks. I checked and the cam is turning. Whats the easiest way of checking the fuel pressure

disco Me, Cheers for that. Still trying to start it as battery was so dead, a jump didn't even do it, but at least it was turning over. Thats step 1 of what hopefully would be like climbing the Eiffel Tower in steps !

Thanks for that. Am heading away this evening and nearly had a s... attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi have a 01 Discovery TD5 Auto and whilst servicing i discovered a recess which appears to be for a stud with an internal screw threading on the bell housing on the bottom side of it forward of the sump on the main gear box -- Have i a problem

I have a '01 Disco and want to upgrade my front light and perhaps the bumper to the facelift model. Can anyone advise me on the difficulties attached and also advise where i can buy the parts. Enda

The M and S are the mode variants of the gearbox setting. Try pressing the mode button as it may be sticking or removing the fuse for it and re-inserting it. I had a similiar problem which was due to a low battery and when the battery was recharged the problem stopped, E
