    overheating disco td5 auto

    im unsure on the engine, but both were 2003...just never had an issue with manuals, just the autos! Viscus is fine, changed that not too long ago. Although i dont think the electric fan is working, so may be worth checking that out. No other temp gauges, just rising temp & little red symbol...

    tire size

    i went for 265/75/16 insa turbo dakars, just standard mud no aggressive tread...main reason for insa turbo was cost really...im going to have to lift it because the the tread is an inch away from rubbing on my wheel arches...a small pothole is enough to rub it

    Ace system / 2 inch lift

    Thanks for the reply. im not tech savvy at all. I dont know anyone near me who can recalibrate the ace system, so would i be better removing it? Nor do i know anyone to tune my tyres. I understand stopping distance an speedo outage, but other than that would it raise any failure to parts...
