No idea. Maybe @sierrafery will be able to suggest something.

I'd be looking for some damaged insulation.

Have you jacked up that wheel and turned it by hand to see if there's any obvious resistance points? Must admit, I was wondering what was happening here with all the talk of pulling and snatches. :oops:

Maybe the 20 miles of thrashing did the job? Italian tune up? Just checked my last emissions test was 0.24. Bog standard state of tune.

Using a hammer on the electrics. Looking forward to this! :)

Hope you have a trouble free trip.

Nice. Whereabouts in France are you?

Have you tried starting in neutral, giving the engine a few seconds to settle and then shifting straight to D and not putting any undue electrical load on (headlights etc) until you're ready to move if you need to move the car?

Spray some diluted washing up liquid over everything to ensure no leaks. Ride height sensors ok?

Take the sest out and sit in the back seat? :)

I put a genuine one mine.

85k on mine.

Item 19? FTC3707 https://www.island-4x4.co.uk/rear-diff-flane-centralizing-allmakes-ftc3707-tid000010-p-26726.html PS they probably didn't put it back on as it can be a sod to get off and they probably destroyed it in removing.

Another vote for the brass plugs.

When I have to run my wife into work (usually only once a week) there is a nice long steep gradient out of the town and then a junction to another road and another junction to join the by-pass, all uphill. Tis good to let it have a nice rev climbing up and I reckon it doesn't hurt the engine as...

Seconded. Did the front passenger on mine a while back. Just replaced the broken one, dead easy and not expensive and you'll know (hope?) it will not fall apart anytime soon.

Does a taking a spare Disco with you negate the need for a toolkit? :eek::)

I seem to recall our resident D2 guru @sierrafery said to make sure it was a genuine LR one in a Land Rover box and that's good enough for me to not question! :)
