    Disco 2 Fuel Flap Release

    Job done - it was so simple and has probably always been the case - the little tab that holds the clip was not bent in sufficiently so the lug could not make contact. Bent it back and all good. Thanks Lancorky and thanks to all those that offered advice - really appreciated.

    Disco 2 Fuel Flap Release

    I will have a look later. I cannot see how the pin locks. Can anyone explain?

    Disco 2 Fuel Flap Release

    Another small annoying problem. Fuel flap releases no problem, only issue is it won't close properly. I had this a while back. The small plastic clip that is secured inside the flap was broken and the small bar that secures the cap in place when it is closed could not engaged. I replaced the...

    Disco 2 Misfire TD5

    Update time - I changed the harness and for a non mechanic, it was quite a simple job. Fired the Disco up and the misfire has gone. I would go as far to say that the engine has run better than it has for a long time. The harness was probably breaking down for a while without me noticing. The...

    Disco 2 Misfire TD5

    I don't think so. It has been suggested the injector harness. I am assuming that is different.

    Disco 2 Misfire TD5

    Cleaned out the red plug - stripped out as much as I could. Turned the ECU upside down on blue tissue - nothing came out. The amount of oil in the plug was very small. Put it all back together and the symptoms persist. Would this still suggest a new harness? I thought it was because the seals...

    Disco 2 Misfire TD5

    Just removed the red plug. There is a small trace of oil inside. I am going to clean this up and replace. Hopefully it will do a temporary fix until I can replace the harness. Need to go off and get some spray now.

    Thanks, Tony. What is the issue with the OEM harnesses?

    Disco 2 Misfire TD5

    Just a thought. I am going to look at the plug tomorrow. If there is oil in the plug, I will strip it down as the link above suggested. I don't think however I will open up the ECU at this point. If I clean the plug up and replace, would this suffice as a temporary fix? I can then arrange a new...

    Disco 2 Misfire TD5

    Just had a look at the red plug and it appears OK. If weather is fine tomorrow, I will take the ECU out and have a proper look. If it isn't the ECU, any other suggestions?

    Disco 2 Misfire TD5

    That's a good point, no I haven't. Would it clear at 1500rpm?

    Disco 2 Misfire TD5

    Disco as always performed really well in the snow. Issue occurred yesterday evening, when it started to misfire. Had it been a petrol car, I would have said plugs or leads. The misfire is only present up to about 1500 rpm, after which it seems to clear. I am convinced the engine seems louder...

    Disco 2 Heater control bulb

    Thanks, discool. When you last posted about the screws, I had another look. I undid some more screws, but, couldn't get the unit out. It came loose, but wouldn't pull forward. There were tabs that screws clearly screwed into that were preventing the unit coming out. My thoughts at the time were...

    Disco 2 Which Front Wheel Bearing?

    Thanks, Tony. Have had sensor replaced twice. Thought first one was dodgy - britpart. When replaced a second time (after 2 weeks), end was chewed up. Mechanic had car up on ramp today and found excessive play in both front wheels.

    Disco 2 Which Front Wheel Bearing?

    The 3 amigos are on and it would appear that both front wheel bearings need replacing. Original landrover ones cost an absolute fortune. OEM are about £120 and then there are aftermarket ones. One company sell them for £65 and reckon they are as good as OEM. Britpart are about £60. As i'm having...

    Disco 2 Fan Heater Noise

    Quick update.Fan successfully removed. Noticed a wire hanging down from where the fan came. Pulled it and realised the wire was in fact the end of a sat nav charger, The charger was in the glovebox and the wire had slipped behind the back and down into the fan. Wish I had checked the glovebox...

    Disco 2 Heater control bulb

    Well done Balbas. I'm glad you managed to get the bulb out. I couldn't manage to upload my picture, which was very similar. Issue I had was that I broke the bulb and pushed the holder back and it is now no longer present. I am hoping that I can simply push another holder in from the front. Can...
