I had the same on my TD5. Very sluggish until the turbo kicked in. To the point where I only felt comfortable pulling out of a juction if I pretended I was in a 40Ton Lorry. After a full service inc changing the Fuel Filter and a Diesel additive clean I rarely have to change down and she has...

The Big Lad I had already taken heed of your comment and based on the price you suggested understood this to mean both, so both air springs should be with me soon. It would have been daft not to do both while she's in the air. You don't buy one shoe at a time, although I guess you may get one...

Would anyone know if its possible and what would be required to retro fit the equipment necessary to have adjustable suspension via a fob. The warning lamp is available as it illuminates as a check with the rest of the warning lights during ignition. Is it just a fob I need that also needs...

The leak took a few goes to find, squirted the air springs initially but nothing, took the suspenssion up to its full height, nothing. Dropped her back down with no extra load in the vehicle and there it was a tiny leak off-side on the inside of the vehicle just on the crease. I guess at any...

Thanks Guys, it is a leak. Tiny leak but we got home. Matt

Hi Guys I have towed about 400miles and the disco once detached; overnight drops her suspension. Rear wheels up in the arches. When I start her up again she doesn't raise up. If I drive a while she comes back up to normal riding height. I don't have the up/down suspension button. So that I...

Thank You All Matt

The only time 3 audible chimes are mentioned in the user manual is when there is a fault with the ABS system. However it states in "Warning Lights" that this warning light will be on when the chimes are made. (all I get is the three chimes and only if I wait for all the lights to go out before...

She is a TD5, 52reg, Diesel.

Is this anything to worry about or does anyone know what this is. I have found the following when starting the engine. Option 1 - Allowing for the coil light to go out and perhaps waiting longer than necessary (putting belt on, telling the kids to be quiet etc) leaving just the battery...

The service is done and it would appear that the fuel filter had been giving the Disco the problems. The service book stamp suggests that this had been done, but along with the AirCon it seems that it wasn't. The transfer box oil level was a little low too. I'll be looking to check the other...

The Big Lad Pending Faults, as I understand them. A fault light may not necessarily come on during the first or non severe fault it receives. The fault light computer trigger may be that if the computer sees 5 faults it will then illuminate the fault light. What a fault code reader with...

Would these code readers advise on pending faults? Matt

I'll look at the fuel mapping following the service if not cured. She is a manual And I'll look at updating my signature to keep all important info together to save anyone guessing. Cheers guys, Matt

Learn a bit, looks like loads :-) I'll read up and keep searching the forums. Feel like I have learnt loads already thanks to you and the guys on this forum. Reading all the threads so far and even though the service manual states that she has had a service, I think that I'll spend some...

Thanks Sierrafery Can you tell me what the MAF/MAP Sensors; EGR Valve and the other suggestions that you mention are. I would be happy to check them but I don't know what they are. I have a workshop manual but it doesn't seem all that clever at giving you this sort of information. Thanks...

I understand that this will enhance what is already there, but after putting the Disco back in High ratio, she pulled away very smartly and continued to do this for a few trips. She has now gone back to being sluggish. What I am really after is to a possible reason for this as the power etcd...

Discovery 2 TD5 (52reg) This is my firs Disco and just thought that they were sluggish until 2000rpm or so. To the point where nipping out of a junction would leave you with second thoughts. However, playing with the H - N - L transfer at very low speeds (trying to find CDL which it...

All working great, I took it to a local engineers who confirmed low gas, recharged her and she now reaches some very low temps. It seems that if the drivers side is warmer than the passengers then its a good chance that its running out of refrigerant and needs topping up. Certainly worked on...

I will try the manual test and if that doesn't help I'll take her to a air con place to have the charge checked etc. I am not sure when the AC was last checked as I have just bought it and as you can probably tell from my posts, this is my first Land Rover too. So its a learning curve all the...
