    CDL oil temp light (yes yes I know)

    Sorted.. means i dont have to cut and bodge, i will just attach a new wire in. Now the fun part will be getting the new wire(s) through the bung in the chassis.. oh joy! Quickly, is it possible to run this to pin 9 on C0506 (on the SLABS ecu itself) i should imagine it would be...

    CDL oil temp light (yes yes I know)

    After looking through most of the threads on here (sierraferry's explaination was golden). I drive a 2002 (sept 2002 registered D2 TD5 auto) which did not come with the CDL but have fitted an early model (one CDL Switch) transfer box and it's only (apparently) got wiring for the V8 transfer...

    Fitting electric wing mirrors

    I have aquired a set of D2 electric folding wing mirrors. i am of the understanding that the wiring is in (mine are heated but not leccy folding) and that on the electric folding version you push the switch down when it's in a neutral position and they will fold in/out. My question is, is...

    Disco 2 Loss of power, please help! Auto TD5

    one place to look would also be the in tank fuel pump.. mine packed up and exhibited exactly the same symptoms you described.. sounded like it was running on (for want of a better analogy) three cylinders, coughing and spluttering, white smoke, rough idle the lot.. new in tank pump sorted it.

    oil temp sensor - auto transmission

    I hav a zf autobox on my disco 2. at some point some cowboy removed the default oil cooler (and bodged the lines) they have been replaced by me and an aftermarket mocal unit has been fitted in its place. Does the ZF transmission's control unit account for oil temperature (and changing...

    Disco 2 Recommended Tools

    they aren't snap-on or teng by any means, but any of the halfrauds Professional socket sets are good bits of kit for the home mechanic and mine (i splashed out on the £200 huge set with snappers et al) has had some proper abuse over the last 10 or so years and i only replaced the ratchet...

    Disco 2 What are the M and S lights on the dashboard?

    M is manual mode, this allows you to permanently select a gear (say second) and the autobox will hold the box in that gear until you change your selection or unselect "M", it will not change down or up from this gear at all. 1-3 are as labelled, and D is for fourth - this is only available in...

    reversing sensor flatline

    65% of the time the reversing sensors on the disco work extremely well. occasionally, however, when driving along (and not reversing or doing anything with the rear close to stuff) they will start beeping, slowly increasing in speed until you get the solid beep as if you are close to...

    Disco 2 low power under 2000rpm, can it be MAF?

    i had a similar situation, which only showed up when the engine was hot, it would be like it was in limp mode for 30 seconds, then it cleared up completely and returned to normal after a little driving. i changed the MAF to a delphi one (not original manufacturer but quality nonetheless) and...

    Other what have u done on ur disco today

    gave the turbo actuator a few more turns of preload, much much much improved response,.. seems it had become, like a lot of things with old age, a little saggy and loose.. . seems the wastegate wasnt quite tight as it is now spot on, possibly even a little bit tighter giving a shred more boost.

    Disco 2 Traction control issue

    i get this if i boot it over bumps.. occasionally, i assumed it was simply because 1 wheel was unloading and spinning and the TC was having a little panic and coming into effect.

    2 inch lift kit

    just went to do some measuring.. 880mm approx from centre of the axle to the centre of the bush on the chassis, 480mm approx from the bush to the SLS height sensor. by my calculations, a 50mm lift will need a 27mm spacer, (50/880*480),

    2 inch lift kit

    i cant see how raising the springs 2 inches would give an equal 2inches of movement in the sensors, even basic calculations suggest that if the arms are half way down the arms, 2inches of lift then the distance moved would be 50%, 1 inch..

    2 inch lift kit

    Want to fit a 2inch spring lift kit (spacers) to aid a few of my local pay and play sites. I intend to leave the SLS intact, but a quick question before I break out the trig and calculate it. how long does the SLS sensor extension bar need to be?
