    Throttle Position Sensor

    Hi Guys, I have a quick question regarding this bit. Does anyone know how to tell the difference between the 2 track and 3 track sensors? Also, when you read back the throttle position with Nanocom or another diagnostic tool, does Accel Track 3 read up to 10.000v? According to the rave...

    TD5 Wastegate Modulator Control

    Hi Guys, I have a question for the guru's in this department. I understand that at high load, the ECU will ask for a maximum pressure of 1.2bar. The question is this, I understand that it takes time for systems to react etc, but has anyone else noticed that when you put full throttle down...

    LT230 Transferbox Speedo

    Hi Guys, I've fit an older Defender box with the square drive speedo output (which I think takes the speeometer transducer). Except this is in a Discovery 2 which doesn't need it. Does anyone happen to know if I can just blank it over with some tiger seal, or does it require the speedo...

    Disaco 2 Transfer Box

    Hi Guys, Changed the transfer box today for a Defender one to bring the on-road ratio down a bit. However, I noticed when taking the old one out, it has a lump of metal bolted to the box. Does anyone know if this is for harmonic dampening of something in particular? I haven't put it back on...

    TD5 Aux Belt Tensioner

    Hi Guys, Hopefully someone else can shed some light on this. I'm unsure if the alternator has a clutch pulley (I don't think it does, so this kinda rules this out). I changed the tensioner because the old one was kaput! I put the new one on, started it up and it's shaking backwards and...

    Alternator Failures

    Hi Guys, I'm curious if anyone knows roughly how long the alternators on the TD5 last (mean-time between failures)? I've managed to blow 2 up now just after an off-roading day. I suspect it's brushes, regulator or diode pack (as a result of dirt or water ingress), but I'm wondering roughly...

    Discovery TD5 Throttle Lag

    Hi Guys, Been scratching my head on this one for a while now. I've bypassed the clutch switch as this was giving the over-rev issue. When I go to pull away, the engine seems to hesitate to build revs when pulling away, but once the vehicle is moving, the throttle response is what I would...

    Discovery 2 Wing Mirrors

    Hi Guys, The late Disco 1 wing mirrors are a fairly close match to the Disco 2 wing mirrors, but the bit that mounts to the body is a slightly different shape. I have a D1 mirror assembly and Disco 2 assembly with a broken back cover, but I cannot for the life of me, figure out how to take the...

    Gear and Transfer Box Gearstick Linkage

    Hi Guys, I'm trying to find the bush kit and clips etc for a D1 diff lock mechanism. Don't suppose anyone kmows what I need to search for? I've tried a few things, but no luck. Also, does anyone know what the gearbox selector bush is? Its the plastic bush that the pin for the gear lever...

    Discovery 2 Half Shafts

    Hi Guys, Was wondering if anyone with experience of off-roading a Discovery 2 could tell me how strong the half shafts are? Debating on doing some long distance off roading and don't want to be let down by these, but some people say they're really bloody strong compared to the Discovery 1 and...

    Discovery 2 Front Prop Fouling

    Hi Guys, I've raised the chassis 4 inches and have found that the prop fouls on the support brace between the chassis runs. Question is, how have others gotten around this? I have taken it off for now as the D1 doesn't have one there and they're designs aren't too dissimilar. I thought it...

    Washer Bottle Relocation - Discovery 2

    Hi Guys, Very little info for this mod, so figured I'd make a post about it. First I sealed up the holes (using tiger seal) for the bumper washers and the rear window washer as I never use the rear washer or wiper and the bumper has been removed for an winch bumper anyway. I salvaged...

    TD5 Head Issues

    Hi Guys, I'm curious in general about how often the heads warp/crack on these engines, was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this? I know what I'm about to mention is kinda likely to cause both of these (and maybe a head gasket):eek:, but you may also be able to shed some light on...
