I broke down last night! Not me but my D2 :-) all the dash pights flashed on and 20 seconds later it stopped. the recovery guy tried to jump start it but the sparks when he connected his portable battery pack were impressive in the dark but flattened it 20 seconds I have charged the battery...

Bought last summer from a fellow Landyzoner now needs a new home. She runs perfectly but lack of space on the drive dictates sale. Improved ECU, turbo, intercoooler, tow bar, etc She is an absolute pleasure to drive Full details in this ad: Land Rover Discovery 2.5 Td5 ES 5 seat 5dr...

Hi - apologies for this probable duplicate... 2 weeks ago, the RHS air bag fully inflated and stayed that way. I got her home and left her there unti lI could do something about it (today!) It was likely to be a ride sensor failure so I bought a new one. I bled the air from the bag by...

Spring is coming... I have a nice low mileage '04 D2 Premium automatic (with CDL) and an '02 D2 manual (with ecu remap, bigger intercooler, nicer turbo etc) both running ok. I don't enjoy driving the automatic (!!) - I have tried - honest Would it be viable to swap the auto for the manual...

I was wondering about replacing all the externally accesible screws with security head screws. I'm particularly thinking of the long screws that hold the fancy rear light 'guards' on. The local screw-merchant did not have anything in stock, said they'd struggle to get anything with black...

Hi! I'm trying to remove the driver's seat on my D2 but the torx bolt nearest to the B pillar just turns - not easily mind but it does not undo :-( Is this a 'known' problem with an easy solution? If not, can someone guide me to a sensible solution? (I'm just a DIYer - going at it with...

Anyone had any experience of fitting a non-landrover sunglass holder (in place of the grab handle)? Something like this: RENAULT LAGUNA 2001-2005 SUNGLASSES HOLDER/ BOX | eBay

I want to swap the simple dimming rear view mirror (from an ES premium) with a dimming+compass rear view mirror (from an ES). First, I'm not sure why the ES 'premium' seems to have a lesser mirror than the ES - is it lesser or am I missing something? Second, is the swap straight forward...

I think the answer is - "Nope - You need to replace the offside front hub"... Both ways whilst turning at slow speed from left full lock to right full lock I am 'rewarded' with a very loud 'clunk'. It seems to be coming from the front driver's side. Other threads don't say just how loud...

What are the likely reasons for a discovery 2 to feel 'squidgy' as she goes into a bend? She's running on 18" Grabber AT's on a normal (rear air suspension) setup - she just feels 'wrong' when she goes round the bends. Is there anything I should think about to make her 'firmer'?

I need to store my poor old D2 at a local farm for winter. As you may know she's not well and I won't have the weather to work on her until Spring. She's not out in the middle of a field but I think she needs some protection from the elements. Can any of you helpful people recommend a...

I'm presuming that you have Linux, some linux skills and have the "Wine" software installed... I found a rave ISO and tried it on my Linux (Ubuntu 12.04) pc... First I mounted it with the "Archive Mounter" this gave me a new "device" but when I right-clicked on RAVE.exe and chose to open...

I recently bought a front hub and ABS sensor from a breaker. Sadly they came separate and I did't get the bolt/screw to hold one to the other :( Please bear with me - I'm doing this research a long way from the hub and I want to get the right part this week so I can put it on this weekend -...

I want to buy some of this: http://www.discovery2.co.uk/workshop/ace/ace3.jpg Which is a deep link into urbanpanzer's website. But I cannot find any for sale in the UK. I had a brief look at Loctite's site but found nothing. Is this stuff - or an alternative - available in the UK?

The title pretty much says it all. I just want to know so the next time I'm down the breaker's yard...

Anyone got any experience with the various 3 legged puller sets on ebay at the moment for example: 3, 4 & 6 Inch 3 Piece 3 Leg Hub Bearing Gear Puller Set | eBay I want to replace the front hub/bearing on my D2 - I think I need a 6" one - but are these ones up to the job? Cheers

On occasions, my car leaks diesel, coolant, oil (of at least 3 differing types) and ace fluid. Some of this stuff attacks tarmac! I presume I'm not alone - What do you do to protect your drive?

My Left headlight 'lens' is way duller than the one on the right - which looks sparkly new in comparison. The problem seems to be grime/micro scratches on the inside (!!) Before I start to strip it all down polish and up the left hand one are there any gotchas/tips on how to get it apart...

I've got a 6cd changer under the driver's seat and a Harmon Kardon (Hk) amp under the passenger's seat. The previous owner saw fit to replace the HK head with a unimpressive aftermarket head. I want to put a head in that will use the cd changer but particularly use the controls on the...

I'm driving an auto TD5 D2 at the moment - she seems gutless :( I've only ever driven autos on holiday but this D2 just runs weird. Sure she gets up to speed - but in twice the time my manual does. If I'm cruising downhill, she seems to drop into neutral and the revs fall to 1500 and...
