Aye, we used to run the LS6 454 (seven and a half litre) in the F1 Stock Car. It used to fly around Belle View. Phil*

Just had a quick google for NEW engine, £4000, and that's bare, no injectors, alternator etc etc. Don't know what to suggest. Phil*

As it's a diesel, the pump governor would kick in long before 135 mph was seen on the speedo. I recon a Disco has the wind resistance of a barn, so it would have to be shoving out more power than a Ferrari F1 to get it any where near 135 mph, that's if the engine and gearbox wasn't in...

Lucky 8 mexican cdl for discovery II - YouTube Is this Heath Robinson CDL kit the easiest fit yet. Phil*

What is the actual reason for fitting the face lift headlights. Regards Phil*

" I do entertain dreams of razor blades smeared with dog poo araldited under the lights just where they get hold of the lights to tug them out. But then I have to ask myself the following:- Do I want to do some work under there in a few months and forget about them - Ouch! Do I want some...

Aye, one of the reasons I had mine chipped. It has more go at less throttle now, no need to chase the rev counter. As for the "noise", when first started, many diesel engines sound like they are trying to escape from the engine bay, but go quietER when warm. Regards Phil*

Aye, that's what I read, a bit awkward but possible. I suppose the one thing that may be "bad" about the electric CDL selector jobby , if you are a keen off roader water or mud ingress may in time ruin it. Regards Phil*

Very very nice. Regards Phil*

Hi, Any one fitted the American GBR CDL kit to their Disco. Seems very easy to fit as it does not require the centre console gearstick/hi-lo unit to be removed to gain access. Regards Phil*

Oh dear, not content with leaking, the front sunroof now decides not to work at all. It just makes a clicking sound when the electric button is pressed. I do not imagine there is any manual way of operating an electric roof, is there?. I also imagine the "electric" bits are under the head...

Valve stem oil seals, a possibility. Regards Phil*

Thanks for that fellow Disco'ites. I have the gist of it now, after the excellent answers. Regards Phil*

Looks like this fault has never been resolved by LR, what a bum deal.:violent: Regards Phil*

Hi Guys, more daft questions coming. 1) Is the little stub of the CDL that protrudes from the transfer box splined, keyed or does it have a flat on it. Just thinking out loud how the replacement cable end fastens onto said stubby shaft. 2) I see a couple of vids on that there U tube that...

It's possible its residue in the exhaust I think. Sure someone will know on here. Regards Phil*

Hi Guys, If the Disco is put over a pit, is it possible to see the Centre Diff Lock shaft that LR kindly omits to put the linkage on for us. And to anyone who has coupled this little bugger up, what is the cost of the new selector lever and cable please. I have had a scout around the...

Aye, there are some robbers out there, main dealers included. Found a local Mechanic to do my work. Removed the EGR, fitted the replacement kit, (one bolt broke, not enough penetrating fluid maybe, had to be drilled out) changed both engine oil filters, diesel filter, air filter, new engine...

Looks promising, the Watling jobby. Cheers guys. Regards Phil*

As it says on the tin. My 2000 Td5 Disco has two, inch and a half? square box section under the front bumper pointing forwards, about a foot and a half apart. I assumed these were for a Bull Bar or A Bar to fit on, but on looking closer they have plastic/rubber stops inserted into the ends. Also...
