Hi folks. I managed to get a set of rims with 255/65 r16 tires. Wider than my 235/70 r16 tires and rims and I like the better handling the wider tire seems to offer. I also like the added ride height. The tires are half worn and it still feels taller with these on! Now I have read that a...

The more I read the more scary it gets. I need to stop reading about issues people have had. Mine is a TD5 99' bought on a whim 3 years ago with 133k on the clock. No service history and I'm the 8th owner (What the hell was I doing?). Now it runs fine. No major issues other than sealing the sun...

Hello again. As title says really. Would the alloys from a 2004 model fit on my 1999 model? I believe some rims are a little wider would that mean my current 70/235 r16 tires would not fit on a rim with 255's or are they all interchangeable? I had read I could fit 255's on my current rims...

Hello folks. Bear with me. I have searched the forums but still need some advice please. My water pump failed and the heater matrix leaked. Both of these have been replaced and the system is water tight. Now the matrix was done first and the heating was fine. Only then did we realize the pump...

Hello. I need to replace the accessory mount that the water pump and AC mount to. This has a hole in it. I have also bought a water pump as it may as well be replaced to. What I cannot find out is if there is a gasket that mounts this casing to the main engine block? Or do you just use gasket...

Hello. I get two or sometimes three (Hill Decent) of the Amigos under a certain situation. It only happens if I go to pull out of a junction and press the accelerator only to have to jump off the accelerator and brake if a car appears etc. Under normal driving I never see them. Any pointers...

Hello again... So the front has 28 psi and the rear 38 psi. What do I put in the spare? I know in theory 38 psi and then if it needed to go on the front I could let a little out but I would struggle and do not have a gauge...I should get one. Ta.

Hello. I have had my Disco 2 for nearly a year. But this weekend I do a round trip to Cornwall (600 miles +) I have not done a lot of motorway miles where speed is required. My tootle to work I do about 55-60mph. So my Q is can the Disco comfortably cruise at higher speeds? Is this a lot worse...

Is it a fan belt or Aux belt?....I guess the latter.... Any way. Hello folks. My TD5 needs a new one. Now ACE was de-activated in a bodged way by the previous owner. I have just removed the old ARBs and fitted the new Non ACE ones. I'm sure I read there is a smaller belt I can fit to by...

I have been asked this and I think it is but just need clarification please kind folks.

Are the coils different size/strength on each front corner? I'm guessing so as the parts that have come are slightly different for the left and right but were sealed and labeled correctly.

Hello. One of mine appears to work. I've seen it spray straight up in the air once or twice when I operate the front wiper wash manually!? There does not appear to be a button to operate them manually?

Hello. It opens from the inside fine but fails from the outside. Will this effect the MOT? I have been told yes....but have read it would not as it is a rear door. As long as it is securely latched it is fine.

Hello... I need new shocks for the front. Now my Disco had ACE but it has been disabled. I don't think they did a proper job though and I think it lacks the anti roll bars. I aim to get this rectified at some point. Now I don't seem to suffer much roll and the ride is fine. I was about to...

Hello folks. As stated in the title. I have remove the sodden carpet to let it dry. I have already sealed both sunroofs as they leaked terribly. I am confident they are now fine. Could the carpet issue be due to the amount of water that had got in prior to my ownership? There are some picture...

Hello....what retailers do you guys use?

Hello. Very new to this. Read the bit in the manual but not very informative. Disco 2 1999 manual. To put it in low range I have the engine running and main box in neutral? Do you then use the gears as normal but drive under 5MPH? Do I start in 1st Gear or are you better off starting in...

Disco 2 GS TD5 5 seats. 1999 134k Loving it. Big old tank. It has the plushest leather seats! I've already had to seal both sun roofs and removed the handles to stop the leaks. I also had to swap the jumbo poorly balanced tyres and put some standard ones on. Much better on the motorway and...
