Hi,
I am sure this topic has been discussed in details many times! However I still have few questions.
I recently bought a nice Td5 ES Premium 2003 (52 plate) manual gear. It has Traction Control and it doesn't have Central Diff Lock (the lever doesn't shift to left-no doubt!)
Now I have now three questions for you:
1) When I engage low ratio gear does the front and rear diff lock block?
2) As anyone any idea how to tell from the year, plate and model of the car if my one is one of those Disco II ready to be fitted with the central diff lock( I am not so sure I will be able to understand it by looking underneath the car) or if will require a substantive job. Can you also give me an idea of the price for these two jobs.
3) Once the Central Diff Lock is blocked what happen to the traction control. I can't see any button to use to press to switch it off. This would sometimes be equally useful regardless having a Central Diff Lock.
I am sure you wonder what I care about installing a Central Diff Lock if I don't either know the answer to question 1!:rolly:
...but this another story
Many thanks
Nic
