Morning, I bought first disco (300 tdi) about 6yrs ago, then moved onto a 2001 D2 ES about 4 yrs ago and was hugely impressed. So much so that when I fancied a change this summer, I went out and found the best facelift model D2 ES I could! Delighted now. With regards to the tax, when you...

Just sold a 2001 ES auto with 98k miles in very good nick over here in Ireland for €4250 if that is any help

Thanks again Sierraferry The ACE warning lights self test ok on start up, going from amber to red to clear. I really hope there is no dirt in the system! But my situation is odd in that it will work fairly well after a good rocking / thrashing and then go back to poor performance / not...

As an aside, I had the front pipes replaced and my AC has never really been right. I do not want to get rid of it, but am getting frustrated. Te indie who did the work, ran through the bleed procedure on the Hawkeye but did not undo the drop links. It did help a little but shortly...

I have a 01 prefacelift ES model that does NOT have ISOFIX and I also have a 02 facelift version that does have ISOFIX. Maybe it came in with the model change in 02?

I wonder was the isofix an option so, as my pre-facelift 01ES does not have it on the rear seats but as I said above, my post facelift 02ES does have it on the rear seats.

I have a pre-facelift and a facelift D2 ES at present (waiting to sell the 01). The newer one looks taller from the front due to whatever visual tricks are played by the lights / bumper style. The older one looks a bit more squat. Other than that, there is not too much difference, although...

Will be doing the same myself, picked up a 02 Es that had very little use over last couple of years and AC needed regassing. Got it done and it all leaked out in two or three days. Pi55ed off they dd not pressure test it but will be going back in next couple of days.

I have the same thing in my 01 auto, but that was originally a manual that was converted quite early in its life. Auto has always worked well but I have never needed to use the M or the S to date. Not sure whether it needed to be switched on at some 'computer' level

I clicked on 90k - 110k miles as this is my older more trusted 01td5ES, but have just bought a facelift 02td5ES which has 41k genuine miles on it. Cannot be too many around with that low mileage, It was a UK car and I am in the process of re-registering it over here in Ireland.

Must get my hands on an owners manual for mine. I have a 01 ES that goes to sleep after about 12hrs. Pain in the ass really

Can anyone advise whether I can swap the amp and possibly speakers in the 'Premium' set up in the newer disco for the Karman Kardon amp / speakers in the slightly older one, will there be much improvement? Is the wiring in place for the subs in the back door? Anyone?

The Disco 2 name denotes that it was made after 1998/99 and came in diesel and petrol formats. The 2.5 td5 diesel engine is NOT a BMW engine. If the wheels fit a range rover P38, then they will fit a Disco2. Not 100% sure about your other queries

Apologies, over here in Ireland we are brought up on referring to any 4x4 in generic terms as jeeps. Will edit the post

Hi, Am in the process of selling my 01 td5 ES (97k miles) as I have just picked up a very low mileage facelift td5 ES (39k miles). However, the stereo in the older disco was the Harman/Kardon unit and I thought that, based on the same head unit and number of speakers, the newer one was the...

Thanks for reply, the reservoir was never emptied as when the minor leak started, I kept it topped up, never dropped below half way. Had the Hawkeye on it this morning and no faults reading or stored and the g's are reading ok when driving as are all the other inputs. Ran through the bleed...

Afternoon all, I had my ACE front pipes replaced by my trusty indy lad down the country and now I have no leak at the front ram - great. However the big problem is now I have no ACE working at all, but the light comes on amber, then red, then off at start up as usual. He is having a look...

I have a similar problem also, but weird but here goes; If I lock (with the remote) the D2 in the evening when I arrive home and if I head out in the morning AFTER MORE THAN 10 hrs, the fob / remote does nothing and I have to open it with the key, but it starts no problem. If it is less than...

I have similar symptoms, and have changed pretty much the same as Hedgehog70. Still losing coolant randomly, sometimes it might need a little top up after 1000 or 2000 miles other times it might need a pint. Regularly getting air locks in heater matrix though. Will a pressure test confirm...

Have you selected 'low' drive?
