It might be too late, but I will see if I can return it. Grr!!!!! I so wish I read this page yesterday!

Without sounding like a Twit.... Have you considered Air conditioning???? When the Air con is on... is does drip? (but this is clear water) The other simple test would be to climb underneath the car and have a feel. Red fluid is ATF fluid - autobox/ steering etc.. Plain heavy black is Oil...

Damn!!! I have just paid £180 today for my new rotary coupler... MudRat

This may sound stupid, but I kept getting the same issue.. In the end I disconnected from the modulator and sprayed the wires with WD40.. now it's perfect... For some reason, they corrode really quickly... It's possible, that in two years, they are mildly corroded causing the intermittent read...

Well, I know you said they are expensive, I did not realise how much. £180 for the rotary coupler!!!!!!! :-O My stupid fault for spinning the steering wheel when changing the steering box!

Cheers dude.. That will be my job at the weekend then!! LOL!!! MudRat

Are they expensive?? Cant see any on ebay and are they easy to fit?? as in do I need to remove the steering wheel and airbag? Mudrat

Dear all, can I pick your brains.. In the last week, the steering wheel controls to the Radio have stopped working. Initially intermittent, but now completely stopped... Now my SRS airbag light has come on... Is this linked to the steering wheel or a control module behind the wheel?? Forgive...

Well I have a D2 ES.. So Yeah....:D Simtek, did the wiring loom conversion and sensors etc for it. Simtek are a very good electronics co. They did a wiring loom conversion for the new headlights.

Effectively I am looking to Mod the whole lot.. Thanks for the offer of the mag. I e mailed LRO yesterday and they are already sending me a copy. Should have it today. I know it is contentious, but I am planning of keeping air suspension, but all round. So it can rise all round. Brakes defo...

Bodylogic!? I will get in contact with them and have a chat... I am glad it is possible. :D That is another thought... 300 chassis or TD5 Chassis? I suppose it does not really matter as long as I can do some welding. That's a point too.... This means I can mod the TDv6 engine to get more...

I will be budgeting 15k with 18k being tops... With the right donor vehicle, this should be entirely possible! MudRat

No.. The plan is a one off rebuild.. I just love the shape of the TD5. The plan is a brand new chassis rebuild everything from scratch. A truly one off. The thing is, I do love the V8, but I think the TDv6 tops it marginally. I have found a source for a TDV6 engine from a crashed landie. Engine...

LR Comics? Excuse my ignorance?

I feared that.. Hmm.. What else could I do.. Take a standard V8 and convert is to diesel? Gosh that would be completely impossible.. I guess I might just have to do a re bore.. But even then, that would seriously mess with the ECU and BCU. I would just like more power out my TD5 without going to...

Here is an interesting thought... Anyone thought of fitting a TDV6 into a TD5 2000 model? or getting a rebore to 2.7? Currently I have a TD5. Very nice.. Engine is just starting to get tired, so planning a change. Either a recon, overhaul myself, rebore or..... here it is........ FITTING A...

Ok.. Thats good news. I will just stop panicking and just run with it the way it is until the head completely goes or I run out of patience changing the coolant. Is turners the people you bought your spanish head from? I will start saving and hopefully do the rebuild in Jan.. MudRat

Ok.. Well the big question is.. Will it be an MOT failure? I presume if the head is cracked, there will be gasses in the emissions and will this cause a failure? MudRat

Does it need any luck?? It's a Disco!!!! they fly through MOT's with their incredible reliability! :crazy_driver:

no TD5..
