:welcome2:well this is the home of landy zone intercounty rescue...a proven assistance program for the unskilled green laner.....just expect some flack, if taken in the spirit of f*** You then all will be well.:D

Mine was the same on my Disco2, so bought one from a breaker, when I put it in, it worked but no light, replaced the bulb and presto one working clock, There was no seperate wire for the light it was in the four wire plug, the bulb holder picks up its power from the circuit board on the clock...

Yep...that's one of my real concerns....its 12 years old, so I guess its going to happen at some point, I can replace most stuff in advance of a failure, air bags, water pumps, oil pump bolt, but there are always going to be bits that are just too dammed expensive/labour intensive, to fix...

:pwell its an idea...but a bit drastic...never heard of any vehicle coming back after a dip in the sea.....seems no matter what they all just dissolve away... had one of those before, and to be fair you just cant keep up with the corrosion or electrical faults. that's why insurance companies...

no..my mistake....its just the same...all working OK...that must make you all proud....cheers guys.....don't seem to be any good news so time to let it die

bum...I thought I had the only green TD5....or is trying to sell my car:doh:

well you know pride come before a fall well,

:):)just to report, another day without mishap.....should I be getting nervous:doh:...just how long can I expect this run of good fortune to continue.:mad: happy new year to one and all. As I'm sure I will require some sound advice in the not to distant future.:D

I am indeed heartend by these positive responces....WaxOil sounds like a positive move

I would have to agree with all....lol....Charlesy is correct, If you check the red plug and find oil, cleaning it is a must, not to would risk damage to the ECU, and if the fault disappears you have found your fault, It is the most common shorting route, so you can choose to clean the plug every...

Hello:welcome2:..nice to see a local, and they said we couldn't read or write in Norfolk. well then...HA....here's three...hows about dat ten.

And a 150k Disco 2 is a spring chicken. Buy with confidence that it will go wrong but it probably won't be a nightmare. This is the same for any land river regardless of age or mileage. I would certainly agree with this, but add a proviso that its been looked after and had all the required...

seems we need to get a Disco 1 300, especially one thats been parked on a beach below the tide line for a couple of days, sold by a guy that imported it from south Africa which he is selling on Gumtree for his mate, almost rust free low milage with no problems, well to speak ov... Then my son...

I am watching this one...as It may become useful.

As most that seem to have replied to this, I run mud's full time, as said road holding not so good, and vibration if you push it above 60, noisy all the time. but know I shouldn't get stuck, and as said, maybe above 60 you need to drive something else, cant comment about fuel costs as I never...

Discool is most probably right again...hope its a stuck door switch, includes bonnet and rear load door, the horn will sound it you try to set the alarm with the vehicle unsecured, so an open door switch will give those symptoms as for the MFU its expensive, but on the plus side I just had one...

They did on mine but followed the fix on here and the problem was fixed...been a jem since....but good to know another good one out there, mine is a 2000 Discovery II ES TD5 with 198,000 miles on the clock. I suppose it will go soon and bite me in the ass though, till then, happy days

Thought I swas it the other day, around Kings Lynn, but it was a long way off and a differant colour, but it turned out to be a Bedford TK truck, so no sorry

:):)It all started a few months ago now, I have noticed that when I go to my 2000 ES disco it seems to start when required, even when cold. I have tried to see if I can get it to be like all the others, and to that end have given it a Veg Oil mix, still it appears to love a bit of veg in its...

same problem just a few threads below this on the same subject...but climb inside and see if it opens from inside using the handle, if it does order a new locking solinoid. when starting to fail, they seem to lock ok, but not unlock, give it some lub, that shoul see it going again for a few days
