Job done. Took advice and go fitter to do it and as predicted he broke the original screen, but replacement was fine and I can actually see out now.

Hi All, Any tips for replacing the front window seal on a 1994 Def pickup as the original is very leaky. I have the seal now but I assume you have to drop the headlining and go from there . Nothing in the workshop manual . Has anyone done this before? and if so any tips please.. Cheers Guys.

Yes I tried removing tyre and cleaning corrosion with a wire brush and applying lots of bead sealant but to no avail. Just wasnt sure if these rims / tyres are compatible with tubes as this would be the cheaper option.

Hi 2001 Discovery 2 TD5 fitted with original 16" Polar ( RRC000040MNH ) alloy rims which I believe are becoming porous. I changed out the old set of remoulds last October for a set of 235-70-16 Grabber AT2s and still notice pressure loss over a period of a week some of the tyres can go from 38...

Ta this looks like a much more versatile tool. Cheers

What sort of price are these and where can you purchase, I know the Nanocom but am not familiar with Hawkeye and its benefits. Thanks

Has anyone tried or heard any reports about the " ABS Amigo " from RSW Solutions ( www.rswsolutions.com ) being used on a Disco 2 . All the threads I can find are for using on a P-38. Would be a handy tool to have but before I purchase ( £125 ) I would like to know of some real world trials and...

Well well turns out it wasnt the battery , but the XYZ switch. Plugged in at local indie. Faults showed XYZ or loom problem so they said they would change out switch and only charge me if it was the problem. They did it there and then and I have had no faults since but we will see this morning...

I have spoken to local landy indie and the have original Disco 2 fitted batteries for £110 + vat but nearest garage quoted £ 145 plus v, still really hoping that if I change out battery gearbox problem may sort itsel oot ( Really dont want to spend 300 notes as quoted for part only ( Selector...

Almost forgot earlier today filling the chariot up a punter came up and said what were the tyres on my Disco, so I politely explained and he replied that his X5 was unable to move off his drive and he needed better tyres, turns out he lives on the same road as me and a damn lot nearer to town...

Agree with CharlesY Grabber AT2 just fitted 6 weeks ago and have been brilliant , really have to provoke it to get any slippage and I have been trying . Alot of drifting in Northern Ireland and tractors only passing some local roads but beaten a few Def90s up the hills so far, big improvement as...

Ta for that Ill check they put at least that power rating in it. Just found the workshop manual listing states 110 amp/hr. Ciaran

I've had this problem for the past 3 weeks ( M and S lights flashing ) and am going to replace the battery tomorrow as I reckon the cold weather and the fact that Ive had the car 3 1/2 yrs and the battery looks like it is the original fitted.( 2001 TD5 Auto ) What is the correct type of battery...

Thanks Fellas, Had a look today and some oil around area esp on wire ( I think it is to the solenoid). Cleaned up and sandpapered spade. Disco has been fine all day now. But sounds as though I need to flash the cash for a new starter / solenoid. Is there anything to look out for when changing it...

Had the pressure washer out yesterday and decided to give the underneath a clean up from roadsalt. Started the car and went down the shops to get cash ( a mile away ). Locked the car got the money jumped in and nothing, just a click which sounded like the immobiliser( Didnt make this click when...

Yep as Andy says the lying under the car is a pain also >I sheared off one of the bolts on the cross member when I was removing it so give it a good soaking with WD for a week or so before trying it. As I said earlier it is awkward to get the sump out and especially back in as you are trying...

Yep its easy. I just followed the discovery 2 pictures which explained it very well. Key is having everything you need. Hardest bit was wiggling the sump out to clean it and fit gasket. I also replaced the oil pump bolt when I was at it as you cant take any chances with that failing. I took my...

Was thinking on a fine sandpaper to get it a bit smoother then something like Plastikote spray paint as I have used it before and got reasonable results but not on external plastic. Worth a try when weather improves.

Which landy you got? My 2001 TD5 looking pretty shabby on the plastic wheel arch surrounds but havent got round to doing anything about it yet. Looks almost like whoever had it before me contacted a polishing buff on it all round the edges and removed the top coating layer. Was considering...

If you have the correct tools this is no problem as you have to be prepared for most eventualities. I carry a spare bag and hydraulic jack and toolbox anyway but best to check what you need if you dont have AA cover it can save you alot of money and it is easy to change. Good luck
