Thanks for the replies, I'll have a look at it today.

Hi All, One of the rear side lights on the mrs disco 2 isn't working and it's not the bulb. The other side is working fine. I can see three wires going into the top bulb holder which is brake/side light but need a wiring diagram or some information to identify the wires used for the side light...

Thanks for the reply but I've only just spotted the sunroof (my bad). Good luck with the sale.

I could use the digital clock, how much?

Is there any rust that needs sorting out (what's been done already)? I've got a 300TDI full of holes but mechanically sound, just trying to decide whether to buy another disco or repair it. The MOT on yours shows an expiry on 23/Oct/16 but more than happy if it comes with a new one (any...

Thanks for the replies (even if some of you didn't read my original post properly before posting a grumpy reply). For the helpful ones, especially sierrafery, thanks. I tested the output this morning and was getting a steady 14V with the engine running and 12.6V with it not. Took it back to the...

Evening, The battery light came on the TD5 this week. I tested the voltage and it appeared to be the alternator not charging. I had a spare new battery so replaced the one in the disco anyways. Called the garage, explained what I had done so far and let them at it. Their diagnosis was...

Afternoon, My mrs is experiencing power loss on her Disco 2 (TD5 Facelift). I replaced the injector harness last year due to a different unrelated problem. I've unplugged the MAF sensor but the issue persists. I've sprayed the wastegate arm to make sure it's opening too. The problem...

Hi All, Can anyone help me identify the wheel nuts in the pictures? They are fitted to a Defender 110. Thanks

Evening all, I'm going to look at a 110 that's had a disco 300tdi lump put in it but still has the defender gearbox and transfer box. Can anyone offer any advice apart from looking at the usual to make sure the conversion hasn't been done by a top banana? Thanks

Afternoon, I've got a strange problem on the mrs' disco 2 td5. It overheats but not on every journey. I drove 10 miles this morning no problem. On the return journey home a good few hours later the bugger overheated and got real sluggish. I turned the heater on full whack but no hot air. I...

Thanks for all the replies. I've not had a defender before. I did think of buying a shed and then doing the rebuild but I don't have the skills myself and don't really have a trusty mechanic nearby. In the meantime I've heard of a landy god somewhere near Kettering who dedicates his life to...

So, it turns out despite sinking lots of blood, sweat, tears and mcuh love into my 300tdi disco over the years it's time for it to go to landy hell (the bastid). I looked at a D3 at the weekend and I thought, I don't want that thing full of electrics despite it looking nice. Instead (for...

I did some basic welding years ago so don't think I'd find it too hard. My problem is time, 3 kids and an unsupportive wife (when it comes to the landy) means that doing the simple jobs like changing an alternator become a fookin hassle. Thanks for the offer but Suffolk is a bit far :)

Afternoon, I'm looking for someone that can do some welding for me as it's going to be way too costly to get done at a garage. It needs the two rear inner arches closing up at the tops and a small plate welding into the floor. Happy to travel a little bit but not to fookin Wales and...

Thanks for all the replies. I have stripped the back out today and it looks like it's possible. I can use the existing belt from the dickies for one end of the bench and just need to source another set of dickie belts for the other end of the bench. Apart from that I just need to see a...

Thanks for the replies. To give you a bit more info, I've planned to rip out everything in the back including the rear seats and two fold up seats I have. The reason for the benches is that I need more of a Defender layout. I have a lot of hiking gear that I need to transport and the current...

Evening all, This might sound like a stupid idea but I'm thinking about fitting rear benches into my disco1. At the moment it's just in the form of a thought so I don't know if benches will fit, can they be mounted without too much difficulty etc etc. Does anyone know if anyone has done...

PMSL! I'm half Iranian and don't shoplift but I do drive a manual. Explain that :D

Wow! Great video and lots of food for thought, thanks for posting :)
