    Other what have u done on ur disco today

    Not done it on a D2 but with decent access it should not be that difficult. Disconnect battery first, have decent selection of metric spanners and take your time. You may have to loosen the tensioner first to get belt off but again this is fairly straight forward. Have a browse of the site, it...

    Discovery II - Tyre Comparison

    When bought my Disco' 2 TD5 had Pirelli Scorpions. I found these ok, with little road noise and pretty good in the wet but not so good in snow and mud. I switched to BFG KO2, there was a definite uplift in noise but not to bad. Grip in snow and mud was way better. The biggest down side was...

    V5 Update

    I think the thing to do is wait 'til any other changes have been completed so as not to complicate matters.

    V5 Update

    Quite simple in the end. I filled in the V5 ticking the Diesel box, leaving engine number blank. I included a written note explaining that the diesel had been fitted prior to my ownership and was a LandRover engine of equivalent spec' as the petrol. V5 returned couple of weeks later duly updated.

    Series 2a Compliance Check and Warrant of Fittness

    Yea BMMIHT is a good place to start for info', but is there an owners club in your part of the World you could ask ? Options and requirements differ dependant on Market. I am pretty sure no seatbelts where fitted for the UK market and the Passenger wiper was an option.

    immoboliser issues.....

    There is a generic override code which your Disco' man obviously knew. Now you are in I would do a couple of checks. Remove the receiver in the rear of the headliner and make sure it is dry. You can disconnect, carefully pop it open and then leave the circuit overnight in a bowl of dried rice is...

    Its broken.

    I'm 59 and work full time. Not my favourite pastime but I've lost count of the number of times I have been out in the rain working on whatever. Many on here will be the same. If it needs doing, crack on. Not pleasant doing it but feel good when it done ! :)

    Its broken.

    Well reading your last sentence you may be on the wrong site ? :vb-jester2: The Disco 1 does pretty well for lack of rust in the important bits, whereas as Series, particularly a Station wagon, has a lot of bodywork structure that will be showing it's age. Some of it complex to repair. However...

    Its broken.

    A Series 5 door. One of the best looking LandRovers, in my opinion. They are a haven for rust. But at least you know what you dealing with ?

    Series Landy Values

    Beware of vehicles masquerading as things they are not. Tax free series 2's which are really 3's, galvanised chassis which is silver paint the list goes on. Decide what you want and have a good look, preferably with someone who knows them. Take pictures and post and ask if you are not sure about...

    V5C fuel type / Heavy oil / historic vehicle

    Similar situation to my 11A. I sent V5 back earlier this year with handwritten note explaining it had been converted to Diesel some years before. It was a LandRover Engine of same capacity. I was deliberately vague, as I didn't know when it converted. V5 returned couple of weeks later with...

    3 kids in seats in rear of FL2 - anyone managed this? Advice needed!

    I think the outer seats where Graco and the centre was a booster of undetermined make. Centre seemed a bit tight but actually worked well, using seatbelt pads over the seat belt to make them more comfy.

    security chip in remote

    I only really have experience with the D2, but believe damp in the module is a common fault. Does the Discovery 1 have an EKA code as the D2 ? If so this will give you a pointer as to what is wrong. Also the D2 has a transponder on the ignition switch which can lead to similar faults. I would be...
