Looks a great machine.

I was going to suggest the back plate but some pads are of different material which can induce a squeak.

I have heard of cars having issues with fobs in certain areas due to signal issues, but not random locking. Have code read and check KVM/RFA modules and receivers for wiring issues and damp.

Really could be many things. Start by disconnecting negative battery terminal, leave off for a good 5 minutes. Battery reset is a basic and quick check. Have you checked both engine and passenger compartment fuse boxes ? You really need a proper code reader as after the basic checks you are...

So if you buy a RHS door lock and fit in place of your current passenger lock I think that should answer your problem. Of course you will need to check your current lock to see what parts you need. Barrels are available from specialists that will match your current key, but of course this comes...

I may be missing something but could the answer to both questions be to fit locks from the opposite Drive vehicle ? Don't think any lock available for Disco'2 rear tailgate. Did Discovery 1 have one ? Also Maurizio you may want to try drying out the keyless receiver under the headliner.

Quite interesting bur Series 109 ? Jensen V8 was Chrysler with torquelight Gear box I believe.

Other than modern cars I have always started diesels with Clutch and Accelerator down. Use glow plugs if required and lift foot off when it starts or hold down if it struggles. Done it with my TD5 and current 5 Bearing 2.5 in Series 2A. Have you checked other possibilities ? Fuel or Glow plug.

There was no wired link between the receiver at the rear and screen upfront. Wire from camera to box at rear, that was earthed with supply from reversing light so it only worked when reverse selected. Camera upfront had it's own supply from fuse box. that was it. With regard to the Evoque, I...

I fitted rear camera on my D2. Wireless system I bought at the Classic show few years back. Easy to fit, small camera screwed to rear bumper, I had it angled to see towbar. Wire went to small receiver behind removeable plastic panel in boot, power taken from reversing light. Screen was upfront...

I don't think it critical to have all the same, unlike the Freelander. But my guess is it would not be recommended. If I where you I would, and think that way gives the best on road grip ?

Don't know how accurate my 'calibration' was but after changing airbags I let car rise to normal height. Turned engine off then disconnected sensor arm, not electrical connection, moved it slowly through it's operation, up and down. Refitted and all was good. While there, with ignition off I...

I read here that the Autel diagnostic is recommended. I have heard good things about that one. Is it any good for a range of cars, not just LR's ?

Joining the Series 2 club would be a good start, but again you can't throw an Ad' in straightaway. Being an early diesel there will be some interest but I reckon Brightwell's is the way to go if you not to precious about the price ? For future, Gumtree is not a bad place to advertise. Not so...

WD40 can attract dust, you can buy specific lock grease, or use graphite grease which is a powder.

Well now I've got to the end, may as well put my four penneth worth in. Similar problem with my Disco'. Local garage used a socket which cuts into the bolt to hold it then a ratchet gun. Followed by a new sump plug. ;)

I thought it was built into the rear seat back. Was webbing damaged or was it jamming ? Jamming can be caused by seat back not being securely latched.

Took mine to a Lock specialist along with V5. I removed trim first and they did job for £70 Quid. They drilled it out, doesn't take long with correct kit.

Was it Clarkson on Top Gear ay back when he demonstrated starting a Tractor with the Shotgun cartridge ? Clever idea.

Very similar system to early Transits. On really cold days when Diesel would 'jellyfi' the fitter would soak a rag in diesel and use a welding rod to stuff it down the intake whilst we turned it over. And I should mention he set light to it ! Not just a wet rag ;) Happy Days :)
