thick question!!!! where is the filter as I have the same problem and no workshop manual(yet)
Hi Clive,
The filter is by the right rear wheel. My problem turned out to be a faulty sender unit at the bottom of the filter. If you unscrew the sender unit if you have any water it should come out. If you do this and the light comes on then disconect the cables and this will stop the engime managment sysytem from cutting off the engine and go to the dealer to be pluged into the system. I hope this helps.

hi
just posted a question as anew member asking for help on my disco 2001.Points are accurate in other threads. I also had this problem.
1. undid undid sensor unit- a mugfull of deisel drained off but no evidense of water- also cleaned and dried out sensor. Re assembled and ok for a few days then light came back on occasionally.
2. changed filter (12 quid from motor factors).ok for a few weeks,
3. looked on various forums and found that its a common problem. The sensor is likely to be at fault. They are known for being unreliable.
4. A new sensor is about 15- 20 quid. Havnt changed yet. Light flickers on about 2/3 times aday in my 100 mile round trip commute.
