    Disco 2 The last unresolved issue (for now)

    So atm everythin on my old D2 seems to be fixed and it is driving great, except for the Engine Vibration :( Reading a very long (40 odd page thread) and now half way through it, where nothing seems to cure an Engine Vibe in an Automatic TD5 D2, I came across this post .... "Don't forget that...

    It is definitely a Capilliary action, all Mercedes 5 Speed auto trans do the same thing, and there theTransmission is much lower than the TCU, but still the Trans Fluid ends up in the TCU causing all manner of grief ;)

    Flat Bed Disco 2 Project

    Thank you kind sir :) I wish I had more knowledge with D2's tho, very steep learning curve this one ;) Yesterday evening just before I packed up it scared the cr@p outta me ............ It was running on the lift, then suddenly developed a misfire, and then came back on all 5 but with a...

    New key fob

    Thanks Griff :) This one ya mean .... I did notice that yesterday, also minus a couple of SMD's ;) Dang :( Does that mean they don't work on a D2 ? I read somewhere that they did, can't remember where now, thankfully I only paid £9.99 for it, then added the buttons, then paid some guy £5.99...

    Shaping up nicely, I too love to see the updates, looks like I need to subscribe to Project Binky too ;) The Engineering in that Mini is a whole different level to the Ford Puma 4X4 Cosworth 24V V6 Stage Rally Car that I built years ago ;) I had some fun through the Forests in that ;)

    Discovery 2 Key PCB to BCM Programming Question

    Thank You for the reply. Yup, I got that now, I have 2 PCB's that have the sticker on their Chips, so hopefully those 2 will do. The original Key I got with the car doesn't have the sticker, yet to check the Book Pack, but it is possible this Car has had the BCM Changed anyways :rolleyes...

    Discovery 2 Key PCB to BCM Programming Question

    Thank you that's great news :) Two of my 3 PCB's have that number, one does not ;) I think that long 15 digit number is the "Bar Code" that some guys refer to, needed on Test Book (and perhaps Lynx "Phone Screen Glued App") IIRC ;) There is a seller on Fleabay says he can decode and supply the...

    Looks like I have finished off the last couple of inept botchery rectification jobs .......................... When the Engine and Transmisson was fitted to this there was a load of Pipe Clips and odd Brackets to retain stuff from vibration, chafing and fatigue just left off :( ...
