Well here we go again... I was a member here when I had a Disco2 and now (after a couple of years of a sensible car) I'm looking at a Disco 3. MOT has an advisory of 'both rear interior sills rusty'. I've not viewed it yet (Monday) so that's all I have to go on. But if I bought it I'd want it...

As per my 'Thank you and goodbye' post in the Discovery subforum, it's time to move her on. She's for sale on Ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rover-Discovery-II-TD5-/172642181764 I genuinely have no idea what a fair price is so I'm letting Ebay decide but if you're inerested, I'm happy to...

Sadly it's time to let the Disco go... She's running fine for now but I need to get a more modern (boring) family car. Something that I can rely on for long family driving holidays into Europe (3 planned in next 12 months). In part I've been out-manoeuvred by Mrs Higgo. She used to have the...

I'm sure this has been done on here and I have looked. My exhaust is blowing from the mid section. I'm toying with replacing it with a 'straight-through' pipe. What are the pros and cons? In particular mine has a long history of scraping through MOTs on emissions. Will a pipe make this worse...

My latest frustration... This isn't the first time I've had to replace the mirror glass and I haven't got it right yet. Yesterday I noticed the drivers side wing mirror was loose and wouldn't adjust. It was only attached on one side. So I took it off and tried to put it on again. I got it on but...

I'm having some tyres fitted next week and (unusually for me) thought I'd dig out the locking wheel nut 'key' but can't find one. I've never had a puncture and these are the first new tyres since I've had it but I just assumed - like every car I've owned in the last 20 years - it would have...

A funny thing happened on the way home form the supermarket yesterday... I got in the Disco and set off.I flicked the mirror switch and nothing happened. So I went to wind the wondows down to push the mirrors out by hand but the windows didn't move. I also checked the sunroof and that wasn't...

I know because I've read this forum that lots of people blank their EGRs. It's not something I've given much thought to so far. One reason is that looking at MOT history (and in the rear view mirror) I know my TD5 has some emissions history. Logic suggests that the EGR is there to improve...

I've done a bit of searching and reading so I think either my compressor is gone or one/more height sensors. How can I tell which? Symptoms are as follows... On starting engine (with all doors closed) the TD5 D2 does not appear to rise from parked height. It's not down on the bump stops just...

I have a brake light out so I bought a new bulb and set about removing the rear light cluster only to find that two of the four screw heads are ****ed. The screwdriver just spins in them. These are recessed into the light housing so I can't cut a slot into them. Any bright ideas?

I've read the 'everything you need to know about air' sticky and a load of other threads but I can't find another one quite the same as mine. I woke up yesterday morning to find my 2000 ES TD2 D2 sat on her arse - both sides right down. I started the engine and pumped her up to 'off road'...

First apologies if this has been asked before... I'm in the wilds with crap internet so can't search. Just arrived at pub and 2000 td5 d2 won't lock. When I close door a red light flashes on dash. When I click to lock it just flashes faster. I can lock driver door with key but it doesn't lick...

For the second time in a couple of weeks I've got a flat battery. I'm going to change the battery anyway as it looks too small to me - it's a 550CCA one in a TD5 but I want to rule out any issues before I bung a new one in. Since I've had it (only a couple of months) it's always started really...

I've used the search function here. I've used the equipment list on Parkers and this: http://www.discovery2.co.uk/discovery_spec.html and I still can't work out for sure which Discovery I have. It's a Y-reg yr2000 model and the closest fit I can get is a Millennium but it doesn't say that...

The first thing to say is that I haven't got the replacement yet so not had a proper go but... If I don't remove the spare, can I get the wiper arm far enough from the window to replace the blade? Numpty-proof instructions appreciated.

I have a 2000 Disco2. If there are different kinds of keys mine is the one with the teardrop shaped fob with two buttons. These buttons themselves were missing from the spare when I got it and the unlock one cracked and fell out of the other one yesterday. I've seen replacements on Ebay with...

I'm tall (6'1") but not a freak. How do I get into the Disco 2 without whacking my head? I always imagined there would be plenty of space but with the high floor there's actually not that much clearance (obvious when you think about it).

Hi everyone, It's looking like I'll be changing our X-Trail for a TD5 Discovery 2 next week so I'll be dropping in here a bit in future. This will be my first Landrover and right now I don't know what I don't know so expect a few dumb questions! Cheers, Higgo
