    Disco 2 Headlining removed, leaks found, what next?

    The drain tubes that come off the sunroof are quite a snug fit, how do you remove them without damaging the black drain hoppers?

    Disco 2 Headlining removed, leaks found, what next?

    Pardon my ignorance however once the new seals are in place I assume that a bead of sealant is placed between the top of the sunroof and the underside of the opening?

    Disco 2 Headlining removed, leaks found, what next?

    so I've removed the headlining and have 2 obvious leaks., one from each sunroof. The front sunroof is coming through the winding handle and I've seen a guide for this fix. The rear looks to be coming in via one of the plastic hoppers in the corner that has split(common issue), it then runs...

    Disco 2 Cold start problem

    My disco 2(1999 on 169k miles) from cold can sometimes be a poor starter. Turn key glow plug light goes out and she turns over and catches but doesn't start. This can happen 2 or 3 times and then eventually she fires into life and runs perfect however it does throw out a good black cloud of...

    Disco 2 Td5 rocker cover gasket

    I am Replacing the rocker gasket on my td5. I assume I am to steer clear of cheap ones? The genuine Landrover one is £32 however there is also a Victor Reinz one for £12. IIRC they are OE suppliers so would that one be just as suitable? Cheers Ben

    Hello

    Good evening, Names Ben, I hopped I here initially for some help on a discovery 2 I had purchased that wouldn't start(main relay for fuel pump was the culprit). I'm from rugby and now own a 1999 v reg manual TD5. 168k but 2 owners from new and has been well maintained and regularly wax oiled...

    Discovery TD5 cranking but not starting (1999 v reg)

    Success, you were on the money, the main relay was the culprit, fitted a new one and she fired straight up. Really appreciate the advice , it was invaluable.. I'll put up a welcome thread as well just to introduce myself in more detail and fire up some pictures of her. Again many thanks, Ben

    Discovery TD5 cranking but not starting (1999 v reg)

    Apologies there. I am up to speed but sometimes will ask a silly question to ensure I'm not overlooking something simple. I will have looked at her again after work later today and will confirm the findings of swapping around the fuses etc. I really appreciate the advice you are giving as it...

    Discovery TD5 cranking but not starting (1999 v reg)

    Okay so you are suggesting that the inertia switch could also be at fault?

    Discovery TD5 cranking but not starting (1999 v reg)

    Okay, I will try that. It would make sense that the main relay that supplies the feed for the fuel pump and glow plug could be the culprit... Fingers crossed, I'll be in touch tomorrow.. Ben ;-)

    Discovery TD5 cranking but not starting (1999 v reg)

    Sorry, it is a manual. Fuel pumps do not turn on at all.

    Discovery TD5 cranking but not starting (1999 v reg)

    Right update. Tried the inertia switch and also tried starting her with a battery off his other td5 used as a daily. Still no glow plug light, cranks but no fuel pump priming etc.. Just cranks and cranks but no signs of starting etc not even a splutter? Ben
