    Oh god I am stupid - Refilling Diesel

    I work in IT for the exchange. I get called all manner of things by impatient traders all the time. Thick skin I do have sadly sometimes I forget myself and rise to the trolls.

    Oh god I am stupid - Refilling Diesel

    I did search and they were all solenoid based rather than the little piece of missing plastic. It was funnily enough resolved by my colleague 'Master of Google' more by a brute force attack than any knowledge of what he was looking for. I am happy to let the trolls have their fun. What would...

    Oh god I am stupid - Refilling Diesel

    Thanks freelaner. The Solenoid is fine but apparently there is a plastic part that attaches to the inside of the flap that apparently is not present on my vehicle. Having limited experience with Discoveries I wasnt sure if there was a timer not functioning on the release but alas its a £3 piece...

    Oh god I am stupid - Refilling Diesel

    So it turns out its missing a part on the flap which I can buy on Ebay for £3 Guess I need to find a 'Beginers forum' as opposed to the 1337 landyzone

    Oh god I am stupid - Refilling Diesel

    Right I press a button on my dash and the little flap swings open I go to my filler and pop in the diesel I replace the filler cap How the hell do you shut the flap? The little bolt thing is back so it wont close. It is not shaped in a way that it pushes back out of the way if you push it...

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    Not sure of the age of the battery and I have had both terminals off and there is no corrosion here. Might be very old though. When it failed to start there was I guess an attempt at starter but this would be milisecond brief. It has been running fine since this happened although I live in fear...

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    Hi, 1-Yes 2-Yes 3-No Just to add-Unlocks on button, key in ignition and on turn I get all my lights and the glow plugs go out, final turn and all lights disappear and no ignition. At this point the Key Fob no longer works to lock or unlock and I think the key would only unlock the single door...

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    New Discovery Driver - Chesterfield

    Thanks. Sadly I had some issues and had to drop out of the farriery game for what I heopd be a couple of months. 3 years down the line and I am fed up of the world of IT support. I set myself a plan and this is the first stage. Sadly working in IT is not as highly paid as people think so I am...

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    Once its gone it is completely unresponsive to all inputs via key and fob sadly. I am thinking it might be the interference thing but I am not sure. Its a little saddening as I broke the bank to purchase the thing with a little money set aside for maintenance. Not really prepared for diagnostics...

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    That sounds exactly right. Pondering if this is the interference issue. Its happened twice in odd places. I decided to run off the key instead of using the blipper and the alarm goes off and I have to disarm with the fob. Is there any way of bypassing it entirely?

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    So I looked around and found this http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f8/disco-2-flat-battery-immobiliser-problem-help-183856.html Could this be the same problem? Is interference common?

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    Update I disconnected the battery and the sound continues (I know I know but I was hopefull) and when reconnecting it the thing is oddly twice as loud. Explain that! Anyway I pulled the fuse that had an icon resembling a key and replaced it. The key then worked again and noises ceased and I...

    Urgent! Unable to lock/lock and the goddam alarms going off

    Hello! I am new to the Discovery game having just purchased a 1999 TD5 in wonderous gold. However I have suddenly happened upon a very irritating problem. The car will open on the key then I pop the key in the ignition, give it a twist, the lights come on and then I try and start it. Nothing...
