No warped exhaust manifold issues? Ive had 2 replaced with my chipped Td5 (unknown origin - had been done before I bought it)

D2 money possibly but there will be those who want a D1 with its 300Tdi engine. Wonder what price would be asked for a similarly specced Defender 90?

Hi all, So with a MOT due next month and a leaking steering box I ordered a replacement recon box from Paddocks. Fitted this yesterday, new seals on the feed and return pipes, replaced fluid and bled it as per instructions. It now seems to be particularly heavy to steer and there is very little...

Even without ACE a D2 (on air) is much better handling that a D1 on coils all round, drove my dads old D1 and it is so wallowy through corners compared to my D2 - which is hardly a sports car!

Views on above please? Is there a massive difference on quality?

Replaced the D2's steering box. Made much much easier with access to my brother's employers workshop! Then hit it with the waxoil gun.

I want this!, unfortunately my local museum wont let me have it :lol:

Ha, Needed to replace the exhaust downpipe on my D2 for which you need to remove the gearbox crossmember. all 8 bolts corroded and not movable with sockets / spanners. Had to cut them off with a dremel, couldnt get normal 4 1/2 angle grinder near them. Took f***ing ages and loads of cutting...

Very happy with my Grabber AT s

So my 130000 mile 11 year old is really just run in? :5bcheers2:

I have these delights to look forward to tomorrow on my D2/ Got the arm and nut tho!

Replaced the 2 air springs on the back of the Disco 2. Old ones werent perished but have been on there 5 years and Im sure they were due to start leaking anytime and I dont want it to happen in the south of France with the caravan on the back this summer! New fuel filter while I had the back...

Mines been doing that for years, first time I heard it I was paranoid that the pump was on its last legs but apparently its just the valve block releasing pressure. (wont happen when any of the doors are open). If it stops doing it now I'll worry!

I also have a 2004 Td5 Landmark which is still a classy vehicle. 130000 miles. Ive owned it 8+ years now and really do love it although the thought of something more modern does creep up now and again. It doesnt have a cambelt to change (chain driven cam). Apart from clutch and flywheel...

Hi all, Just joined in here having been on a number of other forums in the past. Driving a 2004 Discovery 2 Td5 Landmark that Ive owned for over 8 years now and just clocked 130000 miles. Hope to have it for a while yet.
