Hi, I would like to check if my D2 auto gearbox loom wiring has been chafed. So far I have not found any info of how to remove auto gearbox loom wiring. Someone mentioned the wiring is accessible from centre console. I have opened the centre console, but not sure what to do next. Any ideas are...

I forgot to mention, after I restart engine, M+S flashing is gone. I checked my xyz switch under the truck, a big exhaust is on the way, can someone manage to remove it without moving the exhaust? apart of that, the switch case looks like black. As I remember someone said, from 2003 it is white...

Clamps are very tight. I checked again with a ringo smartcharge. The battery voltage is 12.4v, 70% without engine running and 14.3v, 100% with engine running.

Recently, I have experienced intermittent M+S flashing on my 2004 D2 TD5 basically when switching to reverse. When It happened, I felt my engine had a bit shaking than normally. I have 3 years' BulletBatt battery (CCA 930A), and drove about once a week for last two years for WFH, it is still...

Hi! I have 2004 disco. td5 ES AUTO, its rear sunroof glass was damaged. I am looking for an used glass. I am not sure if all disco. td5 glasses can fit my car. My front glass marks 43 R-005274, I have following questions 1. Do I have to use 43 R-005274 glass for rear sunroof? 2. Can I use any...

Hi Stanleysteamer, thank you for your info. when I drove the tap, I was careful to avoid damaging the internal threads. I did tap down the thread. Maybe the internal thread has been worn a bit, so that the bolt has less contact area and can not stand specified force. Other bolts are tightened...

I drove out stripped threads with a little resistance by hand today. I tried another good bolt by hand, first it went in smoothly, it seems tight. Then after the wheel was put on, then tightened by ratchet, it was stripped again. Does it means the hub internal strips have been damaged, or the...

BTW, do you use WD-40 or penetrating oil? I have used penetrating oil to challenge stubborn and rusty bolts. I am not sure if torch fire + water would be another better option to remove damaged thread.

Thank you four your useful info!!! I just found a dedicated tool, it might be operated with standard socket by hand. I don't know if anyone have used similar products https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175189702848?hash=item28ca1eb8c0:g:SpUAAOSwc-FfvMpd

a bolt thread is stripped, I tried other bolt, it doesn't screw in. I assume wheel hub thread is still ok, but not sure a taper can drill stripped out without damaging hub thread, I have no experience on this.

I just clean stripped threads, not cut new threads

From ebay, a tap holder comes with up to M12 taper. There could be a holder for M14, I am not sure if handle is long enough. I see from youtube someone uses tap chuck, I can not find 4-jaw chuck. BTW what brand is good for wheel hub job? how about us pro...

Hi! I need to clean stripped threads in a wheel hub using M14x1.5 mm taper. But I don't know if a 1/2" or 3/8" wrench fits taper head. If not, can someone recommends a tool? Thanks!

StanleySteamer, thank you for your detailed info!!!

I can find required bolts from accu, Have anyone used their bolts? For lockwasher, which fit M16 and M14 from https://www.accu.co.uk/1056-locking-washers?

I checked the length of chassis, it is about 83 mm. I don't know if a long bolt like 120 mm may have a bit longer non-threaded part so that the nut can not tighten up.

I just found from someone's thread https://www.pfjones.co.uk/witter/R26.pdf, surprised they are M16 x 110 x 2.00mm and M14 x 90 x 2.00mm instead.

Any requirement for pitch size of captive bolt? It has same pitch size as normal high tensile bolts?

Hi, I just got used witter heavy duty tow bar for my landy diesel 2004. I have following questions 1. Someone says M16x125 for chassis and M14x85 for cross member https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/tow-bar-bolts.303768/ I searched internet, I can get M16x120 or 130 and M14x80 or 90, are they...

I had the same leak from pinion two years ago, I tried blue devil transmission sealer, it has worked for me two years although it is not recommended by someone.
