Hello, I know it's a bit vague as it could be multiple things. Since i have bought my discovery 2 it loses power intermittently, drives superb but when warm it loses power almost like a limp mode feeling, going up just a slight gradient in third is nearly impossible before having to chuck it...

Thank you still getting to know this wonderful machine!

Hi everyone, This is an odd one just throwing it out there see if anyone could help, on first use when cold I put it into reverse or first gear to move off and this brief squeal happens for about 5 or 6 seconds then it disappears and wont happen again all day. its loud and noticable. Gears all...

Ok thank you for that, radiator looks pretty new but will keep on top of the coolant I have heard not to rely on the temp gauge? Thinking of changing all the hoses to newer ones too

That is great to hear, I wont be ever using it for towing or hard labour. more for just something to enjoy and keep running

That is what I first thought so chances are its had some sort of work done to the head, I would presume.

Thank you guys for your replies I do apologise for my amateur question haha I absolutely adore the thing, it's on 114k miles just plan to do some maintenance just keep her going, I would like to give the oil pump bolt some attention after reading about that.

Thank you very much! Will check this now

I'm going through the paranoid part about the head cracking haha, I believe mine is the 10P engine VIN is 2A745224 which is believe falls into the plastic Dowels problem.

Thank you for that information! I have attache a photo of the numbers on the head excuse the poor lighting.

Hey! I saw something in my manual scribbled down EKA code ....sorry this is such a novice question but whats that for?

Hello there, Just purchased a 2001 (51) Discvoery TD5 just looking through some of the common faults, and planning on doing some preventative maintenance so to speak, I havent got the service history yet that's being printed off for me, whilst having a good look around the engine by the inlet...

Hello! I have just bought myself a 2001 (51) TD5 discovery with 114k miles on the clock, hoping to do a few bits to it in the next coming months just wanted to say hello to everyone.
