2001 DII TD5 Hi all - got a few "electrical" issues and wonder if problem is more likely to be fuse box or BCU related Thing got drenched in torrential rain last week, and has always leaked via head lining/offside front pillar, so could well have had some moisture down to the fusebox area...

well - here's a novel approach to faults, quite opposite to the usual problems ! had a few electrical issues this week - battery died (just packed up due to old age, supposedly nothing sinister) - but when back up and running courtesy of RAC jump start, there were a few odd things going on...

ok - time to gear up for the winter - what are the weapons of choice when it comes to headlamp and driving lamp bulbs ? got a 2001 DII TD5 - standard pre-face lift lights and safari 5000 driving lamps, standard wiring loom with the S5000's on the high beam circuit - currently got the original...

right - ahem obviously didn't do the cap up tight enough (if at all) last time i topped up the water, and the bloody thing's come off in transit (after a week of driving around !) - cue overheating (surprise !), general malaise and a tow home... now - can i lash something up with gaffer tape...

Hi everyone - trust you're all enjoying the driving conditions ! Looking for a new reflector/lens to fit inside a standard S5OOO housing - does anyone know of anything that'll do the job other than the "proper" STC8811 version - these come in at about £30.00 each - wondered if there was owt...

hi everyone ! are these things worth the extra money ? K & N branded on e-bay and the like for thirty quid plus, getting on for ten times as much as other things that'll no doubt do the job - is the contribution to enhanced performance worth forking out for ? thanks....

assuming that i actually get around to buying these things, what are the legal ramifications ? i've dug up all sorts on various posts from them being entirely illegal, to being fine if second hand and fitted on an older vehicle, to stuffing up your insurance by ludicrous amounts to being...

right - i'm after some bull bars for a 2001 DII TD5, and have seen these for sale: now, the vendor isn't sure what model they are - bought 'em to fit an old 300 and they didn't by all accounts, but it doesn't matter how long i stare blankly at the pictures trying to compare them with what i...

always had this problem, but flagged up yet again this morning - 02 DII TD5 - moderate speed through puddles anything larger than a tea tray and the windscreen is deluged with a vast sheet of water that renders the road entirely invisible ! am i simply driving like too much of an arse, missing...

....posted on here a month or so ago about a rough-running S2 TD5 that seemed to be down to fuel pump problems, well, it was - but with some extras the problem became apparent almost immediately after filling up, and when the RAC came out to have a look, after a quick sniff and a turn of the...

hi all - any thoughts on the following would be very much appreciated: diesel auto TDR ES - been running fine, bit of white smoke when idling first thing in the morning, but otherwise no probs done a few miles today with the fuel light on, dozen or so at most, so filled up - as certain as you...

always a thorny issue, so I though't I'd let everyone know the outcome of my latest wrangling with the lovely people who claim to be 4x4 friendly fully comp, protected no claims on a 2001 TD5 ES valued at £10k, £200.00 excess sureterm direct (with a mileage limit of 15k) - £ 391.00 adrian...

due to ongoing poverty brought on by a recent house purchase (well, not so much the house as the "must have" new curtains/taps/kitchen and other woman-related tat...) - i propose to do the unthinkable and get just a pair of new tyres, bearing in mind that the current state of play is that one is...

Hi everyone - after a triumphant summer of leak repairs (silicon sealer having put an end to the deluge through the rear light fittings, front light fittings, map compartments, rear air-con outlets etc etc), i have just one water source left to deal with - out of the (top) seatbelt hole on the...

right, due to yet another result on ebay, i know have yer actual Land Rover auxiliary wiring kit for my S5K's and, having spent many hours decoding the instruction manual, have resolved to try wiring the things up myself only thing is, the instructions don't actually say how the things will...

in a fit of yet more inexcusable expenditure, i have acquired a pair of the above (off e-bay, for thirty quid :D !!!!), and consequently have a witless query or two: can they be wired up so the dipped/main beam operates alongside my existing headlights (ie working off the same switch off the...

ok ok - this is borderline freelander type gay, i know, but bear with me... sore afeared of having coke, sticky sweets, crayon, puke and general child related filth all over my nice leather seats, and not having a long enough stick to reach 'em for administering corporal punishment while i'm...

brilliant ! :p just got round to this s'afty, having been - well - a little sceptical - and, three quarters of an hour in to the "simple ten minute fitting procedure" i was even more convinced that the filth, grease, effort and swearing would not be worth the effort (i managed, with some skill...

one of the few comments resulting from todays service - and not an unreasonable one having spent several months parked at the coast with the salty air an' all - was that it would be a good idea if i gave my undercarriage a spray with "wax oil" to nip any nascant rust spots in the bud anyone...
