    Disco 2 Td5 - 10bar at fuel pressure regulator

    i have a fuel pressure gauge which all of a sudden is showing 10bar pressure (used to be around 4.5Bar at idle). I suspect (and hope) it is a fault pressure sensor and i will be replacing that first but curious to know what other problems my cause something like this? engine feels fine

    Half shaft seals failing repeatedly Discovery 2

    Disco 2 Clutch issues!

    by the way, to bleed the clutch easily use a vacuum pum like this: vacuum pump the important thing is to use a jubilee clip to seal the hose to the nipple and to put generous amount of silicon grease around the threads. it will bleed in a few pumps.
