First thing you need to buy or borrow, maybe steal is a fault code reader that works with the td5. Nanocom, hawkeye, lynx etc. Do not trust a generic code reader as 99.9% of the time it will not work correctly with the td5 engine or other onboard systems thanks to LR not using an industry...

Almost bought this one to do mine but ended up selling the d2 and buying a gaylander 2 instead. Highly recommended buy my nephew who is a very skilled mechanic. Lots of local garages wont touch the knuckles as they need to buy a decent kit to change them.

Why degrade a Landrover by fitting it with anything from a BMW.

Have a look at Dixon Fabrication. Bought their winch bumper. Well made and cheaper if I remember correctly.

3m VHB is what manufacturers use. It sticks good.

Mine has one, as fitted as option by previous owner when car was purchased. Unfortunately no part number is shown on original invoice but price was. See photo.

3M VHB tape. Its what manufacturers use to stick trim on with.

Thats because idiots like you put LED bulbs in and blind other drivers.

Will it not run in compatibility mode.?

Only a few work with Disco 2. Hawkeye, Lynx and Nanocom Evolution being the main ones. Might possibly be selling my Nanocom Evolution, unlocked for Disco 2 and Freelander 2 complete with both leads, excellent condition and in original box.

Fair comnent.

So what is a proper land rover?

Thanks for all the help. Can see why Defender and Disco owners call it a gaylander now. At least Disco's break sensibly.

Not sure if anyone knows of any common faults with Gaylander 2 horns. Went to use horn yesterday and nothing. Checked fuse and relay, both fine. Tried setting alarm wuth door open, no warning honk. So gather horn push is ok and its both horns gone kaput. Or wiring fault somewhere. It worked last...

I used the lucas power steering leak stop a few years ago as my steering box had a slight leek that would drip from the arm. Nothing major just a few drips on the drive over a few weeks. Was never picked up on mot as a quick wipe all over before going in and looked fine. I decided to try leak...

When you say Skylights do you mean Sunroof or Alpine windows.? Sunroofs are easily removed and repaired with a bit of work. Alpine lights I have no idea but someone should be along who will have a better idea. I removed, serviced and got both my sunroofs and drain tubes leak free and fully...

Look for another one to buy unless the rest of the car is perfect and chassis is rust free. There's plenty to choose from. Leaks are common with Disco's so if its been bodged to fix a leak then there's probably other things that have been bodged too.!

Just remembered to report back on how the LOF clutch and solid flywheel fitting went. Can't report any issues with either, compared to the worn out DMF it was a dream to drive. However, I ended up selling the Disco after nearly 6 years after buying a Gaylander 2. For the offroad use I was...

My disco td5 was losing a small amount of water for ages but couldn't see any obvious leaks. My thoughts were expansion tank cap so taped the finger of a rubber glove over the end of the overflow tube to see if it would catch any any escaped coolant. Not a thing.! Eventually found out it was a...

Just lock the car using the key in door lock method. Alarm is set but without sensors active. Simples.
