and would a very weak battery, whilst driving, make the parking brake misbehave..?

It was actually a BuddyGo battery maintainer/charger. According to the charger/maintainer instructions it says that it can be maintained and charged while installed. If it were just a charger.......of course I'd remove the battery. I'm 90% sure the battery is bad. Just weird that the brake would...

I left my 2006 LR3 diesel Discovery over the winter here in the UK for about six months while abroad. Now back and trying to get the Landy up and running again. I left a battery charger with the parents to charge the battery every couple of weeks....but....looks like the battery has been...

Thanks. Now I've come across another problem. The two bolts holding the Rotor Filter cover on are rusted and won't turn. They're even a little rounded off.

I have a 2000 Discovery TD5 and am changing the water pump. Difficult access. I have the nice detailed directions. But my question is do I need to empty the engine oil in order to remove the oil filter to have better access to the bolts? I mean the lower filter. Will the engine oil flood out if...

"Get a handbook and make the effort to understand some of the workings of your vehicle yourself" I do have the handbook but not the card with the EKA code in it. (Disco purchased second hand) I understand everything that it says in the handbook about the security system. What it doesn't tell...

I'm a discovery owner/enthusiast who thought he was joining a friendly forum. I didn't realize I need to give details of shoe size, hobbies, middle name and bad habits!?! I was just looking for a little friendly advice. So if there's no flashing light on the dash.....then the immobilizer isn't...

I have a 2000 D2 Diesel and she wont start. I left her sitting outside the parents while I travelled for a few months. They were surposed to roll the wheels once a week. After a couple of weeks the mother goes to open the Discovery and the remote wont work, she uses the key and opens the...
