Didn't get to do much yesterday but did check all the ecu fault codes. The fault I first posted hasn't come back. The only other is an intermittent open circuit on the drivers airbag (which may be from when I had the steering wheel off a while back). I read in RAVE: So, on mine, the MIL...

Ha ha, it is a small world, I actually live in Wallington, just said Sutton because I thought nobody would know where Wallington was :-) (Sorry for the delay in replying, I've been changing isp most of the week so wasn't online). And I haven't had a chance to start looking at the disco yet...

Peter. I'm in Sutton, so East Grinstead's wouldn't have been too far at all. But, I was away for the long weekend, I fear I've missed the boat. Thanks much for the offer all the same. Kev, yeah, coil's breaking down seemed to fit with an intermittent/deteriorating nature of the problem. But...

Thanks v much for the offer. Yeah, it's a pity; even if I get the beast to start I don't know that I'd trust it to drive that far at the moment. There's plenty of land rovers around here but that doesn't seem to be reflected by activity on this forum. Had the same problem when I needed a...

Thanks Peter. I can look for wear and tear, of course, but is there a test I can do to prove they're working? They're not cheap parts to just swap out, even at ebay prices. In the meantime I've been looking at the nanocom manuals. They're not exactly explicit but, I'm hoping I can disable...

Hi All. Considering I only really post here when I've got problems, I'm amazed that I've not been around here for quite a while. I've just started getting a problem with my 2001 D2 V8 which is duel fuel. It's got an intermittent fault where from time to time it's just not starting. The...

And that's probably the same reason why I don't get anywhere close... :-)

Fair enuff but, if that were all that was wrong then why doesn't the power come back on when the revs drop back down? First guess would be that some valve somewhere was sticking. But if the fix is to turn-it-off-and-on-again then that starts to feel electrical. LPG ECU? ???? Watching with...

Can't help directly but, I got some decent help on here LPG Discussion Forum • Index page when my V8 kept boiling over last year. (diffuser probs). And they un-scared me about lpg systems too.

Ugh. You've reminded me of another thing I have to fix. I mullah'ed my inspection hatch trying to get it off last year. Same deal : just one or two of the screw heads were badly corroded. I wouldn't use heat - not 'cause you're near the tank but because the screws go into nylon inserts in...

sorry. nodded off for a mo there. I'm in glorious sarf london, near croydon, though I don't like to admit it. If it's possible to tweak the bcu settings then that sounds like a top fix.

Seatbelts? Good idea. I just checked the Owner's book which says that the warning is once a second for 6 seconds, along with a warning light. I'll defo give the seatbelts a tweak next time the chime goes off but, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with 20mph, the handbook says it happens...

Oh boy, this is irritating. Up until this weekend I had an occasional intermittent fault where I'd get a warning chime, once per second, once the car got going over 20mph. If I slowed down the chime would stop. To fully stop the warning I'd have to park up, switch off and then start up...

Thanks for the answer Discool but, please stand down on this one, I've sorted it. Working on the assumption that the child lock was on I practised moving the levers on the old latch till I knew what *should* open the door. When I went through the same sequence on the latch fitted to the...

Oh Aaaagh. I've just been fitting a new tailgate latch to my 2001 Disco 2 because the actuator for the pop-up thingy from the central locking wasn't working and I was doing the climbing over the back seats act mentioned in another thread. Everything was going smoothly. New latch in place...

Great. Thanks Paul.

OK, I'll not worry about them. Thanks. (everything does *seem* to be OK, just you never know if you've overlooked something small-but-important....)

First post here - go easy :) A couple of weeks ago I had the dreaded "ignition key wont turn" thing on my 2001 Disco 2 (V8 auto). Took the lock barrel off and drove the car using a Mk1 Stanley starter till I got time to fix the barrel. Just refitted the lock and everything seems OK...
