Ok, fitted the alternator....charging around 14V, so all ok on that front. Been for a very long drive, even over rougher terrain, no amigos! Gonna see how it goes on the amigo front, if just showing up as before this charging issue, then i'll hang on for better weather before investigating...

Thanks Kermit_rr

Anything lower than -25 and mine needed 2x heats on the plugs, but would always start (never failed for 4 years), even @ -35degC! Our first Christmas there we woke up on boxing day to find the car had completely disappeared, under nearly 6ft of snow! I dug out access to the drivers door...

Thanks Hippo :)

When the engine died and I pushed it to the side of the road, I pushed the hazard switch on but not enough juice to turn them on, by the time I got back a little more juice became available it did switch the hazards on. It was when I got back home from towing it, the hazards would not switch...

Thank you.

Definitely.... it's been a beaut of a truck. I was going to purchase a discovery 3 when I got it, but decided that a discovery 2 would be more reliable and easier to maintain in the location we were at in the Arctic @ -35degC (less electrics)......and what I great decision, our Leonard has been...

Hi everyone. Ive had my discovery2 for about 5years. Bought it with 82K, been driving around Scandinavia and the Arctic circle for the last 4 years and put over 50K on him. The only repairs needed have been a power steering pump and a fuel pipe above the fuel tank. The only mods I fitted when I...
