    Just for reference, the key is never recoded, it has a fixed code (well a rolling code, fixed key for the rolling algorithm). The cars BCU is what is programmed to the key.

    Changing the Windscreen Wiper Motor in a D2

    Hi Guys, Today I changed the windscreen wiper motor in my D2 as its was clearly on its way out. It was struggling to turn at slow speed, but ok on quick speed. I didn't want to end up in a situation with lots of rain and the wipers packing in! Although it generally comes as a full...

    Weird key problem - Car is unusable - Nervous breakdown iminent -Help please -

    I think the reason it worked on the other d2 you had was because putting the key in the ignition and turning it tells the key to transmit again. This is because the imobiliser kicks in if you font start the car within 30 seconds or so of unlocking the door. My guess is as your key is not...

    V8 Disco 2 very rough when cold

    I changed both the lambda sensors on mine a year or so ago as I had the mil light coming on a fair bit. I had originally put a cheap one on. But it made no difference so I got proper Bosch ones and it was fine. I dont remember it being difficult though. A couple of mins on the sensor but the...

    V8 Disco 2 very rough when cold

    Getting it on testbook should tell you what's wrong with it. It will tell you what's misfiring and from that you can tell if its a coil as a pair will be missing together. If it's one then look to lead or plug, but whoever puts it on testbook should be able to help with interpreting that to an...

    V8 Disco 2 very rough when cold

    Sounds like an ignition fault, possibly a lead or coil pack. Although generally petrol is more forgiving than LPG for slight ignition problems. I get 12ish around town and 16 on motorway at 60, 12ish at 70 with my D2, and that's just hit 134k today. Ben

    Rave pdf extraction

    The ones I have are just PDFs which is good as I have a mac so don't really want to run windows just to read them. Can't remember where I downloaded them from but more than happy to zip up and let you have them if you want them.

    td5 dII ignition

    When I had this problem it was an ok fix. I took the barrel off by hitting the security bolts with a center punch to get them turning. Then the switch bit unscrews leaving just the barrel. I found filling it with a fine grade machine oil and putting the key in and out and working it freed it...

    LPG misfire

    I have had the odd blow back throughout the air box on gas when setting the old single point system up. That's caused by not having enough gas in the mixture. Never had a back fire through the exhaust though so can't offer any advice on that sorry.

    Each tank will have a solenoid valve on it so check the electrical connections to both of those Try disconnecting then in turn and find out which tank is not working.

    Removing ACE

    I had an ace problem with a split pipe about a year ago now and did get it fixed was about 500. I needed the car working before it could be properly fixed so just put a none ace fan belt on which just ignored the pump so no real need to fit a new anything in place of the pump if yor removing it?

    ..The Catalyst's Strike Back!...

    My d1 came with its cats removed and we make it through the MOT each year ok. The D2 still has them on but if they fail I'll do without since they are not really needed on LPG.

    ignition barrel

    I found a center punch and A big hammer got bolts turning quite easily. So no need to drill etc Once that's off you can take the switch off the back of the barrel and use a screwdriver etc to turn it. Best not leave it like that for long though or you have done half the job for a thief!

    lossing water....

    Worth looking for a build up of dried antifreeze residue. That normally gives a nice tell tale sign. I just found my leak the other day, which was on a V8 so probably a tad different on the cooling side. But that was on the throttle body pre heater, nice build up of crud around it and on the...

    How much is LPG in your area?

    No, although I think they do that as an option. There are lots of outlets around the south west. You have a key that you put in the pump then fill up and they bill you once a month. Country wide farmers is the company name if you want to search for it.
