I thought the relay was on its way out ie the one mounted in the fuse board under the steering wheel but it's not argh! The relay definitely works as tried it on the right hand circuit. The indicator light flashes on the dashboard however the relay remains silent. I have tested the bulbs and all...

I am removing a factory fit Alpine XQD101430LNF from a 1999 model with the Harman Kardon amp speaker set up. Firstly what does the secondary mini ariel lead do located next to the main ariel input? Secondly my new Kenwood KDC BT48DAB can connect to the oem steering remote however believe it may...

After purchasing a replacement Harman Kardon mid for the front door (ebay) for it to last about five minutes, this I put down to it being a similar age, can anyone suggest a direct replacement other than a new one from landrover as they want £80 for a single unit. I do not mind a bit of...

My hanbrake needs adjustment, and from doing a search you can adjust it at the drum. I can see where the cable comes through the cabin to the underside from the lever with an adjuster there, following the cable to the drum. Now is it a case of pulling back the rubber sleeve around the cable...

My Disovery failed its MOT on the front shock absober lower bushes. They were shot to say the least. Thought I'd have a go changing them after watching a guy on Youtube giving a demo on how to do it. Now the guy had already loosened all the nuts and was possibly in Florida. I live in Essex with...

Ok firstly sorry for not being an active member, I guess this is in the main due to trouble free motoring, however that may just change! I pulled up at a set of lights and heard some very odd sound from under the bonnet for about 1 or 2 seconds then all went fine. Pulled up to have a look and...

For a while my battery has been going flat if left for more than a day without use, this I thought was down to leaving the boot light on by accident etc, however over the last 5/6 weeks I have also had trouble starting the car having to leave it a good ten seconds after the glow plug light had...

Hi had a basic search on TD5 radio wiring diagrams, but only came up with 8 replies, all very interesting but zero help! I have a 1999 TD5 with the standard Alpine fit radio cassete with cd changer under the drivers seat that does'nt work, and also what I believe is an amplifier under the...

As title really. I am in desperate need of a body control unit for my TD5, after an ebayer let me down. I could not see a for sale/wanted section (hopefully I'm not just being dim here) The car is a 1999 model, and I believe there are several version of the bcu that will work. Any help...

Went away last week, and came back to a flat battery (car was not used for six days) 1999 TD5 diesel auto . I thought this was a bit odd as had a new battery only 2/3 months ago. Jump started fine, but was dead again the next day, so got the battery charger out several hours later back in...

This is all on a 99 TD5 I have taken the rear door lock mechanism off as it would not open with the central locking, and got fed up pulling on my nice bit of orange string connected to the rear door handle. I'm fairly sure this is not a simple case of taking the mech apart and simply fixing...

Right I have owned my TD5 for less than a week, and already I'm not so sure whether I have made a mistake! I filled it up, fue pump cut out twice so definately full, then zeroed the trip clock. It has covered all of 375 miles and the empty light has just come on. I have driven approximately half...

At some time the ignition lock has been changed on my 1999 discovery, which I have a cut key for ie not Landrover, and a key that fits the door with the remote fob built in as it is the original with the car. Is there any way I can just have seperate fobs to the keys? Can the rear door lock...

Hi I owned a Disco series 1, until less than a month ago the engine bay decided to turn into a BBQ, ten minutes later two fire engines and two police cars I was looking at my very sad car sat on the side of the A14. Now she was fifteen years old, covered 212K miles looking a little tatty, but...
