Welcome.

I used to fit these in the factory. They do move really freely. 1 fitted each side of chassis at the rear.

I believe there is a rubber donut between the prop and diff. These can split.

Changed cubby box lid for a much better condition one.

These type of adverts are listed nearly every day. All with an odd number for price. Search land rover and see how many. All suspicious.

Took for MOT All good for another 12 months.

I flattened out some copper pipe and inserted between terminal and battery post. No further issues.

There was an 05 plate discovery 2 for sale on the bay last week. First time i had seen one with that late registration.

Welcome to Landyzone.

Fitted a new rear tailgate handle. All working now. Also got the front auxilliary socket working.....just a fuse. Ooh and fitted l.e.d. bulb that i found rattling around my toolbox in the front interior light.

I believe manual has shims and auto does not. Plenty on here about starter motor interfering with crank signal. Have a search.

You have to apply for the logbook v5 on a salvage car. I have bought cat n, d and c with no issues. Cat c was stolen recovered with spare wheel and one headrest missing! Never had a problem with insurance with any of them. It will affect sell on price and trade in value. I have just bought a cat...

I believe it is factory fitted. Genuine is an expensive part. A well known auction site is your friend. Search auto silicone blank. I think 20mm is the size you need.

I used copper pipe lagging on mine held with cable ties!

Fitted D4 secondary turbo oil drain pipe modification. What a b!#&h to remove and refit the starter motor on the drive.

Repair kits available on Ebay. Search discovery 2 EAS repair kit. I have used this previously when a pipe rubbed through on mine. Very easy to fit.

So the new purchase is biting back already. Tried to remove locking wheel nuts today. Rears no problem. But i now have 1 front that is spinning:mad: and the other side seized solid. Any ideas/ best way to remove?

Yep 6 speed. Its done 146000. Its for the wife who does 3000 a year on a good year. Idea is to keep it for ever or go bankrupt first.:) Will use for holidays towing caravan etc. They have a special place in my heart as i worked at the factory on D2 and D3.

Many thanks.
