    Disco 2 Td5 slowly lost power

    Hey up I bought a 2003 td5 to tie us over whilst I get round to sorting the disco 3 out. Of course last night the little swine started playing up... It had been a bit harder to start for a couple of weeks, needing a good few cranks and pumps on the throttle. On the motorway, started just...

    Disco 3 (LR3) Front suspension lowers when ignition turned off and locked

    Hey all, Our D3 has the irritating feature of lowering itself to the ground (by opening the EAS solenoids) when the ignition is turned off and the doors are looked. After a few seconds. Its done it ever since we bought it and it gets on my pips. It only takes a couple of seconds to pop back up...

    Disco 2 Eas fixed

    when we bought the wife’s disco 2, some bell bed had put it in coils, so I reinstalled the air bags. The compressor block had been left in.

    Aside from the 2003 td5 disco that i have that won't start, the mrs 2004 td5 is giving jip.

    Hey guys I’ve bought an 04 disco for the wife as her old one blew its gearbox. Just converting back to air suspension as it’s been put on coils. I’ve fitted one sides air bag but it won’t inflate. I’ve manually tested the compressor by jumping the relay and it does work. Now the other...

    Hey guys n gals I'm having peer issues with the disco td5 - it's always been rather gutless but now it's so bad it's hard to get it much past 55! I've got it on a nanocom evo and it says "air reading" I presume this is for the maf reading? It was zero, I've fitted A brand new maf - still...

    The 200tdi in our 130 has started giving jip, over the past few days its gone from starting at the merest flick of the starter, to basically crank as long as you wont - no chance pal!

    ok so if i wanted a 170 chassis, and got it done by a proffesional chassis company, whats the crack with the DVLA? I am a bit confused about it as the interwebs flooded with so much crap. Does modifying the chassis length immediately make it a Q plate? Or is there a way of retaining the...

    Im after removing the central exhaust silencer on the 130 (200tdi) to attempt to free up some power (it all helps!) and give it a slightly fruitier exhaust. Am I correct in thinking the central exhaust on a 110 is the same, and its just extended with an additional bit o' pipe for the 130? Im...
