    Air Suspension Compressor

    I noticed a couple of weeks ago that my air suspension was no longer rising on start up. It does not sink by much when not in use but obviously does lift a little initially. On pressing the button to raise the rear suspension, nothing happened. On getting underneath the compressor could not be...

    Model upgrade

    I have had my current TD5 for 3 years now and apart from some early niggles with the XYZ switch, all has been great and even better after being chipped by Mike at Dynachip, a superb upgrade, better performance and better fuel economy. So, I have now been looking at the later Discovery's, namely...

    Its definitely worth it..........

    I had Mike from Dynachip pop round Tuesday evening on his way home and chip my TD5 and straight away you feel the performance difference, but what has really surprised me is the difference towing. I had to take a Vivaro van on a trailer some 50 miles and the low down torque now is phenominal...

    Discovery 2 Electric Mirrors

    On emerging from a tight space in a multi-storey car park, I asked the missus to push the nearside mirror back out (they are not electric folding type), this she did using the glass as the pushing point. I now find the electric adjustment of the glass to be 'vague', it does move but not by much...

    Underdash fuse box.

    I have been told by my garage that the fuse box under the dash is suffering from corrosion on the fuse and relay contacts due to water ingress. When I bought the vehicle (a TD5) the water was p1ssing out from the inerior light when it rained (the previous owner obvious did not mention this)...

    HID Conversion

    I have recently done an upgrade to the later headlights and they appear to give poorer light than the originals. I am now considering fitting a HID kit, is this a simple task or have the bulb mountings got to be modified.

    Fuel flap TD5

    I have a TD5 and the fuel flap release mechanism has the plastic clip mounted in the bracket, but nothing to keep it orientated, this then results in the flap being easily opened by pressing the end. Is there a spring attached to the plastic clip to maintain the pressure on the solenoid release...

    Sunroof conversion.

    The previous owner of my TD5 was obviously not a member of Landyzone as he has completely sealed the sunroof glass to the frame with some black gutter sealant which has now gone hard. It continued to leak and after I bought it and read the tips on here about leaky sunroofs, a bead of sealant...

    TD5 Auto box

    Is this a good unit or a weakness on this vehicle. I was out in the disco Friday evening and came to a very steep incline, and 2 lights came on, one was the sports mode indicator and one the light to the left with 'M' on it.:( I immediately returned home and it seem to be driving OK. Could this...

    TD5 ECU interchange

    Can you change the ECU on an early TD5 (2000) for a later TD5, say 2003 which then makes it easier to tune via chipping.

    TD5 interior lights.

    My interior lights, all three that is will only work in manual mode, i.e., by using the switch on the actual light, they never work when you unlock the car on the fob, or open the door when getting out. I cannot find any door operated switches, but it was getting dark last night when I was...

    TD5 air suspension & towing.

    I will shortly be transfering my Alko towball from my 300tdi to my TD5 and will need to ensure that it is the right height for towing my Lunar Delta twin axle caravan. The hanbook for the caravan states a towball height of 390-425 which I had to use a drop plate to achieve on the 300tdi, but I...

    Chip or Remap ? what is the best option.

    Its got to be one or the other time now but have got a bit confused regarding the best option for my TD5. The remap option is the cheapest as it seems to be about £199 as opposed to upto £400 for a chip / tuning add on unit. The remap seems to only be able to achieve supposed better running with...

    Here I go, TD5 light upgrade, wiring info please.

    Right, I am going for it this weekend but what I have not got is the wiring info. I have the plugs to fit the new lights and I assume that I will need to chop off the existing plugs / bulb holders. Has anyone got a connection diagram showing what colours reconnect to which. I have a 2001 TD5. My...

    Allabout 4x4, Worcester

    Anyone know what happening with this company. I ordered and paid for some parts on the 6th October, and nothing. I have emailed them with no response and telephoned them this morning. Not a very satisfactory conversation, he took my details and said he would look into it when he had access to...

    A newbie old 'un

    I have been on here now for a couple of weeks and now hooked. I bought my first 4x4 ever, a 300tdi auto in November last year, really just to test the water and see if I liked it, bearing in mind I have been into motor sport for a big time of my life and own a sports car, not the hair dresser...

    2 aerial connections ?

    My recently aquired TD5 came without a stereo as the original was removed by someone whilst parked on the forecourt of the garage from where I purchased it. They supplied an original Landy stero cassette player which I did not bother to fit as its got a harman kardon (is that right) system with...
