Looking for some help with a Nanocom or similar :-D

Sorry Mark, it drives brilliantly and I was just saying to the Wife "it pulls like a train" when the thing just packed up. It had started first turn of the key. It did cut out the last time as I was braking fairly hard, the revs dropped off and it went below normal idle and stopped. It was then...

I'm stuck with it for a while. No money to fix it after spending £900 last week. I basically have a £3000 vehicle stood on my drive and no mechanic wants to touch it unless I'm paying £60 an hour for diagnostic fees. Everyone I talk to just laughs and says why did you buy one of them? Thanks for...

Sorry Chrimcne what is the FPR? That sounds like the problem I'm having.

Sorry, a bit of confusion there. It starts on the button first time every time until it cuts out then the battery light comes on and it's a pig to start. No I don't have RAVE.

Thank you for the reply Sierra Fery, yes the barrel came with the harness. With the advice that it is more thank likely on the ignition circuit I now have some ideas to pass on to an auto electrician who lives locally. The car it's self is quite rust free but I noticed a lot of corrosion in the...

You know what forget it. I came to the forum for helpful advice not to be told my diffs leaking isn't a problem with it cutting out. My point was I have spent a fortune already and I'm getting fed up of spending money. I know the diffs were leaking oil and it was labour that cost the most. Why...

My Disco 2 TD5 keeps cutting out, all electrics die and with it goes the power steering and as you can imagine is very dangerous. I have had a brand new fuel pump at a cost of £230 and the battery is new. I have tested the alternator and it reads 14.55 volts when running and the battery showed...

Right, I've just spent a small fortune getting my TD5 Disco 2 sorted. Fuel pump, brakes lines, diff's stripped and re-sealed, some pinion steering thingy, transfer box oil leak sorted but I still have a really annoying beeping but no warning light. It starts after around a minute of driving and...

I had found that link but I have a Disco 2 2001 model :-s

Hi, I'm looking to fit some modular wheels with similar tyres to this. Was this as big as you could go without modifying the body work. I'm not wanting to cut any bumpers etc. The 235/70/16 look good but I was looking at 265/75/16. Does anyone know if the later will fit without mods???

Looking forward to some winter weather.

Sorted the fuel pump problem with part from an eBay seller £79.99 free delivery. It was just the fuel pump on its way out. Now I have a knackered ignition switch and a leaking rear diff. Sorted a replacement rubber seal for the diff for just £18 from Doncaster Land Rover but can I hell like find...

I'd agree with that, stick to your guns, it's a fair price!

Sorry, forgot to mention my fuel pump started to whine and have trouble starting the car on occasions. Hoping its relatively inexpensive?

Very informative thank you. I have checked my warning lights though and yes they all light up and go off again as they should. I'm hoping that it was just the hi/low gear lever, not had any issues driving on the road so fingers crossed no thing major.

Excellent guys thank you. I have also seen a place on my travels today called South Yorkshire 4x4 on Carrwood Road, Barnsley, S71 5AS. Has anyone heard of this garage or even better used them?

Thanks for the reply but having checked Google maps it's an hours drive away. I'm guessing with the amount of Land Rovers I see around there must be some good garages/mechanics in the Barnsley area that specialise in Land Rovers :-/

i live in Wath-Upon-Dearne, South Yorkshire and need a new mechanic as the garage I have used for years have had a bit of a bust up. The mechanic I prefer now only does odd jobs as he drives HGV's as a day job. Does anyone know a Land Rover specialist in the area? Wath-Upon-Dearne is quite...

Cheers for that guys, think it may well be the hi/low gear lever as that's where i stash my phone when driving and may have knocked it. My Disco doesn't have reversing sensors and yes I accept seat belt sensors was an ambitious guess...lol
