    JLR Telematics and murder conviction

    The murderer had thought that he had covered his tracks by having two accomplices take his wife's Disco that he used at the time and burning it. JLR still had the data that had been transmitted by sim card saved and this told the police where the car had been at the time of the murder and even...

    Our Disco has now gone. Thanks for all the help.

    Advertised our disco yesterday. We had twelve people asking to see it. The second person who came bought it for £1900. It was my wife's car and she has had it since 2007. There were a few tears in her eyes when it went. It would have gone some years before without help from members on this...

    V5 and selling a car.

    We have a buyer coming to collect the car shortly. Would you give them both parts of V5 or keep the larger piece after they have filled it in and send it off yourself?

    Serendipity

    Took the starter off and used a repair kit to change starter solenoid contacts and plunger. Fitting the starter back on I fitted the two bolts and then went to fit the nut at the back. Dropped the nut and lost it somewhere. I went to find another and realised I had been trying to fit the nur...

    Problem with interior fuseboard connector.

    The replacement fuseboard came today but I must have done something to one of the connectors. There are two similar ones 587 and 588. The yellow one goes in OK but I must have done something to the grey one. There are tabs that should be flush but are stopping the connector going in. See...

    Electrical problem with indicators.

    The Left hand indicators on our 2003 discovery 2 td5 work fine. The right hand indicators don't work at all. Not with stalk switch, hazard switch or key fob. Tried connecting up a trailer board and exactly the same. Tried swapping the relays around in the passenger compartment fuse box and...

    Missing multiplugs on engine harness

    Another problem with the loom that came with the engine I bought. Not only are the connectors for the EGR modulator missing, but there are also two multiplugs missing that connect to the engine compartment fusebox. Shown above. What are these for and are they essential?

    Wiring loom advice needed, please.

    I have a replacement 15p TD5 engine mounted to the gearbox and chassis of my 2003 discovery TD5. Aircon but no ACE. The original wiring loom had connectors which fitted on the EGR solenoid but the wiring loom with the replacement engine doesn't. Do I ignore this or fit my original loom?

    TD5 injector adjustment.

    I have installed injectors in this engine I have bought and have rotated the crank till the cam on No 1 is high and the number one is by the cam locking hole. I have then tightened down the adjustment screw till it won't go any further and then backed off just over 360 degrees and tightened the...

    Would this crack have been enough to fill the sump with diesel?

    I have tested the No. 1 injector pocket for cracks on the original cylinder head that had been removed. This small crack showed. Is it big enough to have caused quite a lot of diesel to escape into the rocker shaft area? Thanks.

    Sending injector off for testing.

    Has anyone here ever sent an injector off for testing? There are quite a few offering the service on Ebay with prices ranging from £7 upwards. I am just wondering how well these services work.

    Wiring loom advice needed.

    I am tidying up the wiring loom and there is a loose white/yellow wire. I have tried to see which pin it goes to on the ECU with a multimeter but cannot find a connection at the ECU. Also the black wire from the oil pressure switch connector at the oil cooler has broken. Should there just be...

    Engine coming out fine but miscalculated height needed.

    TD5 weight

    Does anyone know how much a complete TD5 engine weighs? I am trying to work out if I could carry it in the back of a small hatchback or in a small trailer like an erde 122. Thanks.

    TD5 engine removal question.

    We have disconnected nearly everything needed (I hope) and just have the two long gearbox bolts and the engine mounts. Rave says to undo the bolts holding the mounts to the chassis and afterwards remove the top but holding the mounts to engine. Why can't I just remove the top but and leave the...
