    Other what have u done on ur disco today

    Finally got around to fitting a split charge system! Ordered the battery tray from Devon 4x4 yesterday and set about getting the t-max kit I got a few months ago from on here fitted and just as I got to the point of going no further until the try arrived, FedEx pulled up with it! Got a battery...

    Disco 2 Climate air intake

    I've got a Southdown snorkel on my FL D2 and I’m in the process of sorting breathers. Diff’s I’m happy with. I’m assuming there are breathers on the auto ‘box and t ‘box? I’m sure I’ll find them. My main thoughts are about the air intake for the cab/ climate system. Does anyone ever put a raised...

    Disco 2 Highs, lows and Nanocom etiquette?

    Try adjusting the front seats.... it sounds silly but when I wind my passenger right forward (to create more load space behind it) my SRS light came on, returned it to a normal position and lightwent our.... I know it’s probably a loose wire but it’s fine with the seat in a normal place so never...

    Disco 2 Auto box ? Electrical fault.

    Ok, that makes reasonable logic. I have a starting point! Thank you.

    Disco 2 Highs, lows and Nanocom etiquette?

    Have a look on the LandyZone International Rescue section on here. There is a map on there of people willing to assist for beer tokens. See who is your nearest and message them.

    Disco 2 Auto box ? Electrical fault.

    I’ve got a strange fault with my D2 ES Premium auto. I went green laning back between christmas and New Years and a couple of times I felt a kinda surging from the engine/box and a reluctance to change up a gear. It was almost like a limp mode and seemed to lack power but gentle throttle...

    Disco 2 how do i tell which sound system i have?

    I went a bit mad when I got my D2 and did this.... It’s not a small job by any means but you can then fit any double din/touch screen head unit in and have the modern luxuries too.

    Double battery circuit diagram

    I’ll state the bleedin’ obvious... the main aims of an extra battery and split charge system are essentially; 1) maintain the charge of the chassis battery to ensure you can start the vehicle. 2) enable self rescue in case of a flat chassis battery. 3) provide power when the engine is not...

    Double battery circuit diagram

    There are various options available. There are fairly simple ways such as just having a 200Amp relay linking between the two +ve poles and triggered by the alternator so that when the alternator is charging (the engine is running) the aux battery will be charged. I personally have a T-Max smart...

    Disco 2 Aircon always off

    It’s better for the system if you just leave it on. Mine is just left on auto all the time regardless of the weather/temperature. It helps to dry the air in the winter to reduce misted windows

    Starts, turn off, no start....

    Charge the battery.... low voltage at the ECU (under 10.5v) will cause it not to start. Put it on charge overnight and try again.

    Random height issues.

    If you put it in Off Road Mode (ORM) you gain about 2” in the back however when you hit about 30mph, it will automatically return to standard height. The dash light will flash to inform you it is doing this. Also when you take the key out of the ignition, the rear is designed to settle an inch...

    Random height issues.

    ^^^^ As above, first stop is change BOTH air bags. They should be considered a service item with a max 5 year life span. They’re not that expensive and lets face it, they’re rubber bags full of air, if you had a 5 year old tyre that kept going down then you’d replace it, wouldn’t you? Once...

    Disco 2 It died!! But now lives...

    Do you (or anyone) know how much fuel is left in the tank when the light comes on? I’m not convinced on the running out of fuel theory, when being towed to the pump the needle was just on the top of the red sector of the gauge... yes, the light was on but I wasn’t expecting to run out before...

    Other what have u done on ur disco today

    Put it in for its MOT.... including blocked EGR feed pipe (so no recirculating exhaust gasses) and a de-cat pipe.... I had a bit of welding done on the chassis last week in preparation too. It failed.... two ball joints, a track rod end oh and a wiper blade....! All sorted and passed for 12...
