    Yes it's that old chestnut again, the "3 Amigos" but a different slant on it this time.ABS and Traction Control seem to be OK it's just the Descent Control Light. Select low box and DC switch :- doesn't work and continuous chime sounds. Anybody got a clue or do I have to visit the garage to plug...

    Disco 2 Temp Gauge

    Hi All, I have been told that the temp gauge on the D 2 is unreliable, ie by the time it reaches the red it's already too late. This happened to me but fortunately I must have been lucky(so far). Has anyone fitted an after market stand alone temp gauge, and does it work ok.
