Hi, Hope someone may be able to help. Pulled out the Haldex unit for a clean up and clean the pump filter. On the way I managed to drop the metal pump cover and crack one of the field magnets in the cover. A scrap unit would be fine as long as the magnets are in tact. I will of course pay for...

Hi everyone. Finally made the move from the Disco 2 and bought a Freelander 2, 2010 HSE. I miss the D2 but am enjoying the smoothness of the F2. However..... having put the Nanocom on the F2 I have found a list of faults. I've cleared them several times but they reappear. There are no fault...

Hi Just bought a 2012 sd4 Freelander2. Put my Nanocom with relevant software on the vehicle. Get the message that ‘Not all ECU’s match the VIN number Does anyone understand the issue?

Hi My Disco 2 TD5 has recently started cutting out or getting a really lumpy tick over that clears with revs. Happens just a couple of times a week. I suspected the fuel pump as when the fault occurs I cannot hear the fuel pump running and it’s normally quite noisy (Bearmach pump less than 12...

Hi, hoping someone could give a definitive answer. My mate has just put the head back on his Disco 2 TD5. But because the marked links on the timing chain had faded he has set it up one tooth out on the cam sprocket. With the head fitted it’s is impossible to move the chain on that one tooth. So...

Hi I'm wanting to clean the injector seats of my TD5 before replacing the washers. Does anyone know of a kit that has the correct size tool. Thanks

Hi all My Bearmach fuel pump fitted less than 2 years ago is now only pushing out 50 psi (3.5) bar instead of the rated 58psi (4 bar). I have for a while had some vibration and what seems like a misfire above 2100 revs but the engine seems to full full power through the higher revs. Not sure if...

Well after thinking I'd cured the vibration/shudder in my 2001 TD5 auto discovery it's back again with vengeance. A local specialist diagnosed a badly worn and noisy transfer box so was trusted to do the job as I don't have the facilities to drop the gearbox or transfer box. Things were a little...

Hi all, I'm in the process replacing my cylinder head/gasket. The head I've removed had the ****ty plastic dowels, hence the head has moved. I've checked the posts on here regarding the Vin numbers that can use the steel dowels and believe mine is in the range but my parts supplier suggests it's...

Hoping someone can give some clues to solving an ongoing problem with my Disco 2001 TD5. I have searched the threads on this and other sites but none give a conclusive answer. For a while now I have had what appears to be a misfire on perhaps one cylinder that comes in at 2100 revs. This stays...

Hi I have the base 660 radio cassette in my GS Discovery 2. If I fit the steering wheel remote buttons will they control this radio? Steve

Hi, I have a Nanocom set up for the Discovery 2. I'm in the Doncaster area and am happy to diagnose your Disco faults or set up suspension etc. I'm reasonably proficient with the Nanocom already and helping you will help me get better with it. All I ask is that you work around my availability...

Hi everyone, Well I'm back in a Discovery 2 again after a 2 year break following my last one being written off by a herd of bullocks on the road. Couldn't bear the thought of going through the process of sorting out all the faults and poor maintenance a replacement. Well I bit the bullet and...

Hi all, back again after a 2 year break of Disco ownership after the last one was written off in an RTA. So, just purchased a reasonable 2001 D2 and ran it through my Nanocom. I bought the vehicle with 110,000 miles on the clock, on the Nanocom the BCU and the speedo reading match at 177,000 ...

Need help identifying oil leak location. Engine oil is dripping onto the rear of my alternator from somewhere. There is also oil down the same side of the engine but I cannot find where it might be coming from. The rocker gasket is new and there is no leak from the FP regulator. It seems to be...

Hi Does anyone know of a supplier for the bottom bolt on channel for the rear side doors quarter light frame for the D2? Mine have completely rotted away and need urgent replacement. I have tracked some threads of the subject and one post suggested repair channels were available on EBay but I...

Hi all, Have recently fitted a new front nearside door lock actuator only to have the intermittent fault of the inside door handle not always opening the door. The fault is the same if the ignition is off or on and the first pull of the handle releases the central locking if the ignition is...

Some time ago I saw, somewhere, that someone had drilled and modified the ACE block,to accept standard pipe fittings. Also the description of how to do it. Cannot now find it... Can anyone point me to it. Thanks Smac02

Think I've found an easy way to test for wear in the front ARB bushes on an ACE equipped D2. Been having a strange clonk from the front for some time but been unable to locate the problem. My ACE packed up today and the clonk disappeared. Once I'd sorted the ACE again the clonk was back. I...

Today I ran one of my Disco rear wheels up a 6" ramp that I had made for my yacht trailer to test he ramp. Switched off and admired my handywork but on starting up again I got the 3 amigos light up! Reset the fault code of 02-08 right rear sensor. But immediately reappeared. Reset again and it...
