Thank you. Shedload, that is exactly what I meant. I have a LHD Disco and was inquiring on a RHD lock, so that I may enter the vehicle from either side.

Oh, ok, sorry, I had misunderstood. Yes, everything worked. 1st press of the open button to open driver's door, a second press to open the entire car. I prefer it this way as it's safer against hijackings etc. So, I'll just order a new receiver.

The central lock/alarm receiver under the roof was oxidized and literally rotted away, so the LR Dealer had to bypass it; I can now open/close the car and start it in pure 1960s fashion. So, if someone parks too close to the driver's door and I can' access from there, I literally have no war to...

Hello, Maurizio here from Rome, Italy. I have a similar issue, and THANK YOU for the "nanocom - always disarm with key" tip! Sooo... Discovery 2 V8, LHD I have had to disable keyless entry as the immobilizer was having fits. I can now enter only from the driver's door (left side), turn/twist...

Hello, Maurizio here from Rome, Italy. I have a similar issue. LHD Discovery 2 V8 I have had to disable keyless entry as the immobilizer was having fits. I can now enter only from the driver's door (left side), turn/twist key in the old school fashion. At this point, to keep things safe, I...

Well, IMHO, if the engine block is the same, unless radical states of tune are considered, most/all components should be the same for the same model year. Looking at the 4.0 V8, if one model declares 183 bhp, another 185 bhp and another yet 190bhp, chances are it's all in the twists and turns of...

One piece of advice, if I may... With your cellphone, take a picture of the starter motor and wiring before you undo all the wires, it'll help as you want to reconnect them and can't remember which goes where...

Well, it seems I was right, the same item is listed with two or more ID numbers, so all's well that ends well.

I would like to refresh this old thread, I drive a 2001 Discovery 2 with the 4.0 V8. The starter motor is beginning to do that "stuck pinion whine" - she starts on first turn of the key but that whine... So I looked for a new starter motor, to have on the shelf "just in case". I couldn't find...

Thanks all. I have, since my initial post, been forced to change mechanic. The expert (he certainly is an expert and tunes and builds Rally/Raid Land Rovers) did charge me the price of a new Rolex, but carried ut the jobs listed for the price of a Timex. Diff oils not changed but topped up...

Re: Rimmer Bros switch lamps part no. STC1878, I have just checked their website. £20.40 for one itsy bitsy lamp... buy a handful and it's £100 ! (plus s/h...)

Hello all, I have just bought a 2001 Discovery 2 with the petrol 4.0 V8, 99k miles on the clock. I've nicknamed her "The Camel", she's docile, she's a nice color... and she's THIRSTY! :D She runs nice and smooth and quiet, but little service history so upon purchase I took her to my trusted...

I'd consider it, but I would need to know your shipping costs from Aberdeenshire to Rome, Italy. If the system demands "complete address", try <Via Renato Birolli, 8, 00155 Roma RM> It's the local brewery !!! Actually, anywhere in Italy should be the same price, unless one lives in one of the...

Hello Russell, this is Maurizio from Rome Italy. I'm interested in your transfer box, if it has the Centre Diff Lock. If it's complete with lever and linkages, better still. I have a V8 petrol Disco2, it's alright but no CDL. PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

Ho, I'm interested in the transfer box with centre diff lock. Is it available? Thank you

Hello, have you still got ther CDL transfer box for the Disco? I have a 2001 Disco2 and sadly it's not lockable. Please let me know, including shipping to Italy. Thank you. Maurizio

Deep breath... OK, I decided to ditch both candidates. Setting aside all the "ordinary" TD5 Disco2s in my own area, I have found two interesting candidates: - a D2facelift, TD5 with 'auto box, ~60.000 miles, leather etc., looks new; - pre-facelift D2, 3950cc (4.0L) V8 petrol with EFI and 'auto...

It could be either an undershield panel made loose, or a leak in an exhaust joint

Hello all, this is Maurizio from Rome, Italy. I was hunting for a Discovery 2 facelift TD5, and thought I had found the ideal car... ...'auto box, 135bhp, only 70K miles, leather etc., really pristine... ...until I came across an ad for an early Discovery 2 with the 4.0 V8 petrol! Hmmm... as the...

Hello all, two things caught my eye: 1. "Angel was speeding his North Phoenix neighborhood, disrupting his neighbors while his parents celebrated their anniversary in Las Vegas." Does this mean they actually left him on his own? One can be pretty responsible at 14, or... 2. "Angel's family...
