    Disco 2 Aircon fan - 3 bolts for front grille - yeah RIIIGGHTT!!

    So... I've never had working aircon since I bought the car 2 years back. Only just got around to checking it out seeing as I was at Emmotts of Colne getting a fresh rear wiper motor. One free nitrogen test later and great news! The system appears to hold its pressure! SWEET! Bad news, of course...

    Cracked front bumper - Drifter's Stitch

    So, finally got around to closing up the crack in the front bumper via something I found out about on youtube - a Drifter's Stitch. A bit more permanent than duct tape & a lot less expensive than plastic welding (I don't have a plastic welding kit). I don't have any rivets for my pop riveter either!

    Front bumper trimming

    One of the fog lights fell off last year, the other one's cracked & broken, besides I cracked the off side front corner recently when attacking an embankment :o :o :o Seeing as there's a handy "cut line" above the D2 fog light area :bounce: I decided to prune the bumper to gain a bit more...

    Good old SVS fault DTC 4114

    Is it usual to have the 3 amigos illuminate (bong, bong, bong!) then once the vehicle is stopped & re-started to have the 3 amigos reset WITHOUT leaving the ABS light on until you drive off at more than 9 mph? I thought you have to do that, but not so with my friend's D2 TD5. I cleared the...

    Ribble Valley 4x4 - good impressions!

    Just a mention that RV 4x4 in my opinion are another good supplier of Landy parts worthy of mention. Yes, they are a Britpart stockist......, but they do stock OEM stuff too! :bounce: for all manner of LRs I've used them a few times now, not for mail order, but to collect parts in person -...

    Terrafirma shocks - so far so good.

    A couple of weeks back I decided to get some replacement shocks seeing as the rear's had evidence of weeping - nothing drastic. I've had the D2 TD5 for 2 years & no idea how long the shocks have been there. Got a complete set of Terrafirmas for £137 from Ribble Valley 4x4 - my local landy parts...

    Turbo wastegate modulator pulse test

    Recently had a couple of random occasions when the engine was really flat with no power after about 2000 rpm, but within 30 seconds or so the power returned. I had heard that it might be the modulator on its way out, so bought a new one. Genuine LR £35 dead easy to fit - process of elimination...

    Terrafirma / iCarsoft TF930 / i930 diagnostic

    So.. these things retail for about £100. they cover all Landys which need it fenders, p38, Discoverys 2 to 4 Freelander 1 and 2. It can access live data and display & clear fault codes for all manner of systems in the vehicle. Think cheap nanocom with buttons instead of touch screen. In fact...

    Injector wiring loom...

    Original at about 60-odd quid, or cheapie aftermarket one. In looking into the vibration at 2K issue, I reckon there's a slight misfire too. Sometimes, there's a chugging around 1500 or so. I've cleaned the ecu plug and loom a couple of times over the last few months, getting rid of the...

    TD5 vibration at 2000 rpm

    When the engine's cold, I can feel a noticeable vibration at around 2000 rpm. Above and below that, the engine's smooth - it does get slightly rougher as it nears max revs - any engine's vibes will change a little. Once it's warmed up, then the vibe goes away. I haven't taken the acoustic...

    LZ Member p38thrasher..

    Note to everyone on here:- DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS PERSON - he will scam you. More fool me, I paid £160 to his bank account for a Hawkeye (unlocked for D2 TD5 in addition to L322) on the 12th Sept. Not heard anything since a couple of days after that. I'm not the only LZer out of pocket...

    Shocks limiting axle travel...

    Possibly a dumb question :D My D2 runs stock suspension. I recently fitted a new bottom bush to a front shock (cheers for the help Neil!) due to an MOT advisory. I noticed that with the shock disconnected the axle could articulate further, about an inch or so. Is it always the case that...

    TD5 front downpipe

    I've seen these on ebay for £36-odd from a supplier called redline. Good price?? (Price is for the non-cat pipe)

    Nanocom airflow reading of Zero

    So... I gues the MAF is buggered then? I'll check the fuses and wires just in case.. :rolleyes:

    NSF ABS sensor output too low

    Nanocom reported this fault which I cleared. No more 3 amigos. Upon checking the voltage, nanocom reported 2 sensors at 2.15 and the other 2 at 2.17, I'm assuming this is normal.. Should I be thinking aobut swapping out the NSF sensor or entire hub or just leave it be? (I'm liking the...

    A question of torque....

    So, the D2 hub's stake nut requires plenty of torque - 362 lbft according to the haynes manual. Just double checking if I've got the maths right after successfully fitting a new hub :D At a distance of 1 foot away from the nut, there needs to be a force of 362 lb. Therefore 2 feet away the...

    2, yes Two amigos!?

    After setting of from stationary, more or less on full lock to negotiate a small T-junction, I got bong, bong, bong and the ABS & TC amber lights... what! WHAT? WHAT? After an ignition reset (turn engine off, wait, turn it back on) they went away. All systems A-Ok ('cause I tested 'em...

    Adjusting the fuel pump float arm...

    After encountering the same results as this chap:- http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f8/fuel-pump-cutting-out-1-4-tank-258226.html#post3082545 I decided to try and sort this issue today. Earlier in the week, I'd had a discussion with my mate about which way to bend the arm to reposition the...

    Failed MOT..for this...

    Yep, there's a hole beneath the silver duct tape. I found the hole not long after I'd bought the Disco, as in I managed to poke it through whilst picking at some rusty paint! :doh: Anyway wire brushed it and Hammerited the edges, then duct taped over it to cut down any water ingress. Trouble...
