    Multiple water leaks Discovery 2

    thanks for sending these through. Just so I am clear what I am looking at in your pictures, how high up have you had to cut out the rot and weld in new metal? I have taken the front carpets out of mine and had a look up behind the dash and it looks clean

    Multiple water leaks Discovery 2

    hi all, been a while since I posted. I hope your Disco's haven't cleaned you out like mine continues to do. Despite the love and care I show for this thing and regardless of how much money I throw at it, it gives me new problems weekly. Appreciate this topic has been done to death but I have...

    D2 TD5 wont get above 60 degrees C

    just to let you know that I changed the thermostat and it has sorted it, so thanks for the guidance. Had to take it apart again to tighten the clip around the water pump end of the t/stat. And low and behold I have noticed this morning it is still slightly leaking but not from there!

    D2 TD5 wont get above 60 degrees C

    thanks mate. I started to take it apart today but couldn't get to the very irritating clips on the hoses so have ordered a set of hose clamp pliers to wrestle it again tomorrow ! Was worried I would go through the pain and still not resolve it.

    D2 TD5 wont get above 60 degrees C

    hi all, been a while but in 3 years of D2 ownership, I am now £15k into it. Most spent on repairs and a little on suspension/tyre mods. EVERYTHING has been done on this truck and still it lets me down! Aaaaaarghhhhh. I have a new quirky problem that has developed in recent weeks and I am...

    Oil or fluid leak?? D2 TD5

    a labour of love. I am really hoping that I wont have problems on the scale of the P38 that I had. Despite paying top dollar for it which came with amazing history and a box full of receipts including all the usual gotcha's, it still went wrong even without moving. Cost me a fortune. Misses...

    Oil or fluid leak?? D2 TD5

    so this morning I have taken it to a specialist and they have suggested it is more than likley the ACE system So full mark to those who put that forward :-) I have left it up there for them to confirm and to then decide what to do with it. Great way to start the new year! The joys of LR...

    Oil or fluid leak?? D2 TD5

    hi all, again many thanks for your input so far. I really appreciate it. Last night I sent the pictures with details of the fluid checks that I have done to a land rover technician that I know. They said it is very likely to be ACE related and that I should take it out regardless. I didn't...

    Oil or fluid leak?? D2 TD5

    just another observation, the leak seems to have slowed down now that the engine is not running and is cooler. Would that point to anything specific at all or give any clues? Apologies for my total lack of knowledge on this..

    Oil or fluid leak?? D2 TD5

    Yes, it is convenient for me. I wouldn't use anyone else to be honest. And I rely on them for most things apart from the basics. Where are you then?

    Oil or fluid leak?? D2 TD5

    I will take a better look in the morning. Could have been the light or something but the PS is defintely not green in this car. Will investigate and update. I am hoping to run it into a specialist that I am friendly with to see if they can quickly identify where it is coming from. They are...

    curiously the ACE is a very dark colour almost black. The PS looks clear as you look into the reservoir but pinkish if you shine a light at the side of the tank
