Today I had the vehicle up on stands to replace the exhaust system, so thought I might as well pull the half shaft and have a look at the axle O ring seal following blowing out the axle breather and clearing the hole into the rear axle casting. The oil seal was somewhat shredded which would have...

The problem is solved, everything working OK on the air suspensoin with any more deflates

I have oil leaking from the nearside rear hub on my S2 even after pulling the half shaft and replacing the O ring. Guess I need a new TAY100050 hub or more importantly a pair. Can anyone recommend the most cost effective supplier? I saw these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/144072893676 with a 5 year...

OK, this is the easy and cost effective way of sorting the problem of failed rear tail gate door sub woofer foam surrounds. Don't bother buying after market replacements unless you are going to upgrade the whole system and to be truthful the Harman Kardon 360w 12 speaker system isn't bad at all...

Thanks for your input Pawl and I guessed that the fitted Harman Kardon AMR5511 speakers would be matched to the complete system and unless there is a seperate bass level control within the amplifier to the rear feed, then it has to be done by the sensitivity of the speakers/enclosure. I have...

I have a 2003 DS2 with 2 Harman Kardon AMR5511 rear door tailgate bass speakers that are completly knackerd, the foam support surrounds having disintergrated. I am looking to replace them and have scanned the various threads on a good replacement withut any sucess. The spec is 6.5" low frequency...

Today I changed the air springs and just thought I would complete this thread with a few findings. Support. I jacked the tow bar and stuck an axle stand underneath it for the body support. Raising and lowering the back axle gave me access to remove and refit the air springs which is surprisingly...

Both sides of the air suspension on my S2 Discovery are deflating over a period of days now, so I guess it is time for new air springs. These have never been changed in the 8 years of my ownership, and who knows if or when they were changed before when I bought the vehicle at 89,000 miles? There...

Regarding selecting Nanocom Instrument Pack Police configuration this will (amongst other things I am sure) turn the PDC (Parking Distance Control) audible warning bleeper permanently on when reverse gear is selected. I guess this is to act as a warning to pedestrians that the vehicle is, or...

Regarding my diff lock I thought I would add a little more detail to SF's learned reply for which I am grateful. Also may I thank Ashcroft Transmission Ltd for the bulk of this information. The early Disco II's were not supplied with a centre diff lock function (CDL) although for a couple of...

Having just replaced both the diode pack on the alternator and the main belt (both died after just 3000 mile) I realised that quite a few dash board LEDs were not functioning. Using the Nancom I got the Valeo BCU to light most of the lights, but it has left me with a couple of question: 1. I am...

Thanks guys, there's a wealth of knowledge out there and I appreciate your assistance. Let me clarify a little more the questions which was more about technology and original manufacture as opposed to good dealers. Today there are a number of alternative technologies available as opposed to the...

My present Yuasa cargo 640SHD 115A/H 1000A on the old S2 is coming to the end of it's useful life after only about 4 years. Any recommendations for a good quality, long life replacement battery, preferably with a reasonable guarantee.? Thanks Steve

OK let's be clear. I have a Land Rover Discovery Series 2 2003 in silver and I am interested to know members views on what general purpose tyres they would fit for everyday use :o)

Oooops, dyslexic fingers SD2

I bet this one has been done to death, but even so i am sure there is wealth of opinion and expertise outhere ready to assist me. I need a couple of tyres on the DS2, they are 255/55R18 on Comet rims. The vehicle is 90% road use so mug pluggers are not appropriate really. As the SD2 is hardly a...

What is your view regarding the Exhaust Gas Recirculation valve fitted to TD5 engines. My 2003 LRDS2 has one and whilst the car performs sort of as it should, I would appreciate thoughts as to the popular modification of removing this device especially in the light of the current MOT situation...

Well thanks for all your input on this irritating problem and I am pleased to report I have solved it (sort of). I decided to bring the leaf blower and compressor hose into action with a mate installed in the cab to listen and see if I could replicate the whistle whilst the vehicle was...

Thank you Berg. Interesting, the bonnet forms a cavity at the rear when it closes against rubber seals. Air is fed into this cavity from the outside below the windscreen, through the foam rubber "Pollen filter" and there are entries into the vehicle heater/ac unit both on the passenger and...

Blimey that knackered..... The whistle in my S2 is NOT effected by any of the following: 1. Heater controls. 2. Sun roofs 3. Windows 4. Wipers. 5. Wing mirrors So, has anyone any idea what the path is to get air into the heater system. As I mentioned before it looks like the air inlet vent...
