Both filters?

Yes, on a Disco TD5 there are two engine oil filters - a std looking one and a centrifugal/rotary oil filter as well.

Now take the poly bag it came in and pull it up over the filter right to the top, and slip a rubber band up to keep it in place.
Poke a small hole in the lowest corner of the poly bag to let water out just in case any gets in.

Ah. That's the secret

I used a britpart fuel filter once. The filter part seemed fine, but the outer shell rotted away and leaked.

I tend to use the cheap filters, let's say at under £5 each.
A LR dealer filter is over £30 each.

I carry at least two Cheap ones and a LR one in the car all the time.

It saved my bacon one day when it died at the M6 Toll booths.

Going again less than 10 minutes later.

Every TD5 owner should carry a couple of fuel filters at all times.
