Wont download to phone so laptop it is thenTut. The iCrap generation!
You'll probably find that RAVE won't work on a phone or a tablet. You'll probably have trouble trying to get it to run properly on a Crapple laptop too. It works fine on a windows PC or laptop.
Hi Steve.
Sorry to revive an old post, but what "stuff" did you use for the air drier? Did you need any new seals after you changed it?
I´m reviving my compressor at the moment. Piston ring and air filter is done, but I might come back to it and change the material inside the air drier too.
Invaluable post this, thanks for taking the time to share it!
Thanks Steve. You´re one of those guys everyone wants be be mates with.HI its nice to see people are still reading my thread.
I bought a kit off the good old ebay, cant remember the one now but there is some on there

Lol. Same here.Well died yesterday from starter motor failure but new denso (OEM)coming tomorrow. and got a half rebuilt axle to finish and fit. Always something to do if there's a green oval on the front.
Hi Steve!
Have spent the last 12 hours of my shift reading through your "journey" and I would like to congratulate you on the clarity in which it was delivered!
I am currently perusing the inter-web on the look out for my first landy and had decided it was going to be a Disco2. I am no stranger to getting my hands dirty and doing basic maintenance ect and was looking forward to approaching each problem with the obvious due care and attention you so ably demonstrate but, after reading through your comprehensive thread I find myself somewhat deflated and unsure if I am capable of proceeding in this direction I do understand yours had a punishing life before you took ownership and I would hope to purchase a more cherished model to help improve on the skills I currently posses but, i think i might buckle if my future "project" has half the issues you have discovered and subsequently dealt with
Thank you again and well done
Welcome to the family! So glad you bought a thinking man´s DefenderHi chaps
Don't want to hijack a very informative thread, but I have just bought a TD5 facelift. Must say I should have done it years ago, absolutely love it. Always wanted a defender, but went for a Disco and so glad I did. Apart from a small water feature which is either the front sunroof or roof bar, it is putting a permanent smile on my face. Full leather interior, loads of options and in brilliant nick with a pretty comprehensive service history (I will be going over it all myself, and check all the fluids for my own piece of mind)
I don't think there is a problem that can't be solved with a decent tool kit and some good advice on here.
So glad I bought one, just do your homework and make sure its in the best condition you can afford. But you need to be quick, the late D2`s don't stay for sale too long, I missed out on several.
Good luck
Tim
Just a bit different condition to yours...I've heard of a nice 04 plate. Locally a bit different condition to mine was. Totally mint with LR service history and only 46k from new. It's tempting.
