    The downside being you take them off and have an accident which is investigated then you will be in deep do do. D2 never came without them fitted.

    It's not necessary but some people do it anyway. It's just D2 front droplinks on the rear and D3 fronts on the front.

    From memory it's just the suspension needs setting - to ensure it's set to air or coils (as appropriate) and if on air it needs to have the heights set correctly. There may be more than that, it's been years since I did it. Depending on where...

    It's not that bad to fit, and it's handy to have the CDL and TC working correctly together.

    Hi all, I had the D2 mot'd then re-taxed it at the end of February then set about replacing the leaking ACE pipe. The leaking pipe (bottom of the valve block) came out of the VB ok but despite it being one of the two piece pipes you have to take...

    No but you just need to disconnect it from the pump, remove it from the clips across the top of the crossmember by the tank, then pull it through from underneath. The other end of it is by the body mount on the chassis. It's rigid enough to then...

    It's probably the green fuel pipe which rubs against the wiring loom for the pump. Known TD5 issue so that's where I'd look first. The replacement line is available on its own (YNI500030K), it's easy to replace and doesn't need the tank dropping...

    A couple of the guys on D2BC have fitted that one - apparently just needs the connector on the cable changing for the one from the old fan.

    From the water pump via the cylinder block into the oil cooler and then back into the cylinder block.

    If by blocked you mean the hole doesn't exist on that port, then it's fine and you can leave it. The updated radiator design is supposed to be like that.

    I have a box full of TD5 gaskets and seals tucked away somewhere. I need to find it and see what I have. Luckily, I'm not in a rush to complete this job so if I don't have what I need I can order at my leisure.

    While you're at it you'll want the gaskets and O-rings for the two filter housings if they're not included in the oil cooler repair kit.
  • jamesDiscoTD5
    I'm sure they were. Not a criticism or a poke, just wondering is all!!

    15p TD5 engines were first fitted to D2s well over a year before the facelift was released
  • jamesDiscoTD5
    Yeah - a leak seeming to come from the top of the tank is probably the green pipe.
