When it comes to rangie sports what do you feel is better at towing; the 3.6 tdv8 or 4.2 supercharged? Definitely aware of the economy difference, but lets say i were to hook up 3.5 tonnes on the back and tow up a mountain, which would feel more effortless? And also how would they compare to...

Hi everyone... an interesting problem here. On my 1999 Discovery 2 Td5 manual, in the low rev range sometimes and not all the time i find that the car has no go at all, you push the throttle down fully and nothing really happens. VERY slowly as the revs build the power will all of a sudden come...

Hi everyone, just finished taking the engine out of the 73' Range Rover and started stripping the engine down for a rebuild when i found the serial number. As far as I'm aware, the 15G means it's the gutless version from a 90 or 110? Can anyone shed some light on this? cheers

I'm considering getting a remap on my 99' Disco Td5 (head says stage 1 tune and heart says stage 2 or in that vicinity). I've already blanked the EGR off, and removed the centre muffler for a straight pipe and got silicone hoses. Now I'm going to look at other modifications before I go for a...

Hi everyone, I have a problem with surging under load in my 1999 Discovery Td5 manual. Have had the car since last October and first noticed the problem when we decided to ‘see what she’s got’ so we ran it up to about 100kph in 5th and floored it which is when we noticed that...

Hi everyone. Not sure if this has been answered before probably because of its simple nature but just a quick question about the vacuum pipe from the EGR valve to the modulator. When blanking the EGR off, the kit I bought didn't include anything to blank the vacuum pipe off. would I be right in...

Hi everyone, I have just noticed that on a steep hill if I go from 1st to 2nd or even hill start in 1st with a fair amount of throttle, the revs will increase quite a lot (depending on how much throttle I use) without much forward movement at all and feels like I am riding the clutch when my...

Hi everybody, sorry if this has been answered before but can anyone lend some help on the locking cover wheel nut things on disco 2's... pretty simple question really but I'm not sure i have all the right tools to do the job so am i missing something (reading the manual makes me think so) or am...

Hi everybody, well our much awaited 2a arrived today after a couple of weeks waiting for transport and quite frankly we can't wait to get stuck into restoring this classic (on top of resorting a series 1 :D) . It's all there and won't require a complete disassembly but the engine will need to...

Hi Everyone... I picked up this JVC head unit some time ago as the original Land Rover one was a tape player, but as you can see from the photo, it sticks out of the console at least an inch! but the funny thing is, is that the original unit was exactly the same. So would anybody know of a head...

Hi Everybody, my second post and still getting used to the forum but im getting the hang of it :D. Ive also had a look at other threads but they dont quite hit the nail in the head. Anyway, I have a question regarding my Td5 Defender 130 (2001 model), she now has 425,000kms on the clock and is...

Hi everyone, i was hoping for some advice on some possible issues with the door on my discovery, the issue first arose when i bought the car and the outside handle did not work, i fixed this issue by shortening the little rod that connects to the lever/arm that pulls up when the handle is...
