    Another ACE question (ear defenders on already)

    Good evening sierrafery, I will have a look on rave at the pressure transducer. Would that give me both faults? I have only owned the car for 6 weeks and the pump has never run dry in my long ownership. I must admit I was going to go for the lynx as I have a spare laptop but went for the...

    Another ACE question (ear defenders on already)

    Hello Dave, I have seen the filter in the valve block on the forum and on rave. If this needed changing would that give the fault codes? I thought about a leak so have kept a meticulously close eye on the level of oil in the reservoir and it hasn't changed level in the last 4 weeks. Could...

    Another ACE question (ear defenders on already)

    Hello all, Had the amber warning light come on the other day for ACE. I hooked my newly acquired nanocom and I found the fault code 06-01 hydraulic pressure too low. I am going to change the ACE pump as I have someone to help with the spanners and the nanocom to reset the system. I also...

    you work hard, I work hard but not everyone does. As discussed some people like it for a very low price or nothing. One thing I do find sad is that so few people have commented on this subject or appear resigned to the fact it is going to happen.:( I wonder why I left the UK..........

    stop the demand for the theft. It seems to be the same with alcohol. Price goes up. people stop going to pubs so much. pubs close. supply and demand. A very sad problem for the pub trade and it is such a shame for a great British institution. If people want the lights there is no way that I...

    D2 facelift headlight security.

    As you have said it is not down to eBay to check if this are 100% legit or not. People know how much land rover parts are worth, if it's too cheap, why is that. Also the same can be said if someone on this site wishes to sell/give/swap something that is stolen, landyzone will not check...

    Mine hasn't got cruise but that didn't put me off as I know I can retro fit for @£100. I will take your advice on the ACE and take it to the land rover dealer in Pau or Biarritz equal distance either away. As for all the rest I have a very competent mechanic with a barn fitted out like a...

    Hello all, my first thread. I recently bought my 2004 D2 in the UK. As I live in France I am having to change the headlights to LHD for the French MOT and registration. Having bought them from a well known land rover site they arrived yesterday so I looked on the discovery section to see if...

    Britpart/ lynx- diagnostics

    Haven't been on for a few days and is good to see someone else in bandit country. Will be passing you at the start of September, being dragged back to the UK for a couple of weeks. Just bought a nanocom for the D2. Would have liked the lynx but I felt, right or wrong it may need a bit of time...

    very wise words and I like peanuts far too much. Lets hope I don't become just a monkey but a very wise one. I doubt it as well. Thanks all the same for your help. At least you should look at this as an investment for when you are going from France into Spain along the Atlantic coast you...

    Ok. Thanks for the quick response which I didn't expect so went out for the afternoon and ended up at the bar. I do not own some calibration blocks (whatever they are) and from what you have said about not being able to force the calibration of the blend motors or any obvious way to perform a...

    Got a laptop and power converter for the car so not a problem but thanks for the heads up. What I'm after is the most complete diagnostic kit for a reasonable price as a friend of mine is a mechanic and can do all the work if I get the right diagnostic kit. I'm not unreasonable, if I have to go...
