Thanks, sorry I didn't get notifications for the above replies.

My 2004 Landmark D2 seems to have a fuel gauge issue. I went out yesterday and when i left town the light came on even though the needle was on around a quarter (not in red). It's only 3 miles to home so it didn't concern me. Since then I did one journey around 5-6 miles, then yesterday it...

Thanks SF. I had a decat pipe fitted already, so I think that means that problem's been solved already. Thanks again

Thanks. Someone told me they thought the changeover year would probably have one, if not that saves me a job! Hopefully someone can confirm.

I have a 2004 Disco 2. Do they have a DPF? If so, I'd like to remove it!

DAMMIT!! My mate popped round last week to say "scrapping my D1, just wondered if you want any bits". It was a bit of a heap so I said no thanks. FFFFFFFFS! I have exactly that problem. My lovely almost mint D2 has a horrible looking back windscreen thanks to scratches. I have wondered why...

Thanks, yes they are identical to that. I did just order some of those clips as mine fell apart when i took the blades out :) Thanks again

Ok, i am short on time so gonna make one last purchase - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301733748503 if that don't work, new wiper arms! I read that other thread, I will check my arms/springs/hinges are greased up nicely too. thanks everyone

Is that a fairly easy job? I may do likewise, thanks If you mean these (https://www.partsinmotion.co.uk/car-parts/wash-wipe/wiper-arms-blades/bosch-pair-of-windscreen-wiper-blades-807-detail) they won't fit on mine, I think I may have bought a set of those only to find I don't have a hook on...

I must have ordered about 3 different sets of wipers now, they never fit. Not sure if my D2 has non standard windscreen wiper arms, but nothing seems to fit. The end of them is a U shape with a hole in both sides. Is that normal? I really want the Bosch Aero style wipers, anyone know how to...

That's fantastic! Any mods on the vehicle? Air filters, intercoolers, exhaust, de-cat, de-egr....?

Seriously?! I assume you did the calculation right? No insult intended! I just know there's a different between US and UK gallons so I think it's easy to get the calculation wrong using Google on smartphones etc. I could be wrong, and it could work the other way, but 36 in an auto, doing 70...

Not sure if I could never do more than 50mph! I haven't seen that chart but I can well imagine. I hear the Penny Farthing was pretty good to the gallon :D

Yes I can't grumble at 27.7 doing 70. Probably might get near 30 if I did 55-60. Just wondered what next steps I might take if I could, to bump it up a bit more.
