    D2 Air Suspension Gremlins

    Hi all, have done a thorough search, believe me!!! While driving home last night the suspension on driver's side dropped whilst on M6. Nice. Bounced to next junction (fortunately only 1 before mine) and pulled over. Didn't pump up. Bugger - airbags, i thought. I've had it for getting on 2...

    Track Rod / Drag Link Confusion!

    52 plate Td5. Afternoon all, just passed M.O.T, (phew) but got an advisory on track rod ends. Thought I might as well get all four done as probably all in the same state so rang local indy, got told "you can't just buy the ends, you need the bars 'cos one end of each set is machine crimped on...

    Td5 oil filter

    I remember reading a thread way back when about some non LR filters having non return valves or summat in them and you could tell the difference by the noise on startup. Of course, I now couldn't find the thread if my life depended on it. Anyone know which filters are good 'uns before I take out...

    Td5 Aircon fan

    Any one know the part number for the small aircon fan that sits in front of the radiator? Mine is seized and every time I fit a new 40a fuse it blows. And before anyone says it I have searched extensively :p Have tried Rimmer Bros, LR Series, Paddocks / Craddocks etc. Not at home at the mo so...

    Bizarre noise!

    I think this must be steering damper-related but welcome any thoughts / advice... 52 plate Disco Td5... When driving off a bump / kerb it makes a noise EXACTLY like when you twanged a ruler on a desk at school. Is the damper knackered or is it normal? Was dead funny at first and the kids...

    EGR Binned

    Well, finally got round to doing it and got to say, makes a helluva difference! No more flat spot at junctions, can change up into every gear at lower revs and is a lot smoother on overrun. Now to start doing my sums re: MPG... Got it from JGS 4X4 on fleabag and would highly recommend them...

    Td5 40 amp fuse

    Anyone got any ideas on why it keeps blowing? It's under the bonnet, 3rd from the end and it's for the engine cooling fan. I've put 4 of em in now and when engine starts they click and blow. Before I start taking stuff to bits, am I missing anything obvious? Is there a common fault or an easy...

    One more thing while i'm on here....

    Any pointers to which de-egr kit is the best in terms of quality and parts supplied? Been looking on ebay and seen a few, from 29.95 - 79.99 and just wondered if anyone could share their experiences before I commit! Read loads on here about it and am dead keen to get it done. Thanks in...

    Is it just me or......

    do all td5's weave about like bloody eels when you're doing 56 in the slow lane? I am assuming that it's just following the depressions made by millions of lorries over the years, but it can be quite unnerving. Or, as my wife so succinctly puts it - "what the f*** is thing playing at???" :eek...

    Mornin'!

    Just thought I'd say hello and introduce meself. I've joined on the recommendation of someone I know on here as I'm looking at buying a Disco, probably 00 - 03 age (depending on what mood the bank manager and my wife are in). So, based on what I've been told you're a friendly, helpful bunch that...
