    Hawkeye codes/meanings

    Thank`s Jamesmartin. Mine was opened up in the middle & I suspected it was meant to closed. Do you think this could cause the starting problems Ive experianced ? Also does anyone know where I can source a replacement or the name of the part ? Cheer`s, Dan.

    Hawkeye codes/meanings

    Update. I cleaned all the crud out and removed the calipers to clean the sensors saturday & for the time being the 3 amigos are gone :). I also replaced the fuel filter & took off all the connectors to it for a good clean. Does anyone know if the little orange diaphram type fitting (on the back...

    Hawkeye codes/meanings

    Sorry for the delay in replying. I only recently moved & also have a 3 wk old son, so trying to juggle everything atm. It`s now on 107k so probably best to replace, but I`ll check the front one over first. I have`nt cleared the codes yet & rechecked, but was wondering if the 4134 code (motor...

    Going on a trip which one!

    The thule roof boxes are good. Just dont get the halfrauds aerodynamic bars as they only attach to the forward roof bars on my disco 2 td5 & are then a pain to reach anything in the box, as well as attaching/removing it from the roof.

    Hawkeye codes/meanings

    Hi I`m after a bit of help & advice with some hawkeye codes on my td5 and their meanings & could`nt see anything after a quick search. After getting the three amigos come up after going down a bumpy road, I discovered my n/s/r hub sensor wire was a bit loose. I decided to buy a hawkeye to make...

    Oil Loss. Will it be ok ??

    Cheer`s Blackhadder They have 100% feedback on the bay & also seem confident, as they invite anyone to turn up without an appointment to view the factory & talk to their engineers so it all sound`s good. I`d love to have a go at rebuilding the engine, but sadly have no room to carry this out...

    Oil Loss. Will it be ok ??

    Well the answer to my original question is No! thought I could hear a knocking noise when I was going through a drive thru as it was echoing off the wall but I was`nt sure as I had fitted a straight thru exhaust & could`nt hear/notice it after that. Anyway driving from Chatteris it lost power &...

    First td5 disco any idvice?

    Fuel lines can rub through & also worth replacing the oil pulley pump bolt as a precaution as some came from the factory without threadlock on & work loose. Regard`s, Dan

    Yeah, just when I thought I`d escaped with no damage this happens ! Oh well out with the spanners lol

    Oil Loss. Will it be ok ??

    I hate to be the one to scare you by saying that in my experience, I have rarely seen an engine that has been unaffected by 'running dry'. The moment that oil film breaks down, there's metal to metal contact which causes damage/ wear to engine components equivalent to several thousand miles of...

    Oil Loss. Will it be ok ??

    Spoke too soon:( .Today I decided to increase the speed/revs after taking it for a gentle drive up to a max of 2k revs, inc a few miles up & down the dual carriageway up to 70mph & all was good :). I then went to increase the revs up to 3k revs & thought I heard a woosh/rush/whistling sort of...

    Oil Loss. Will it be ok ??

    Well thank the land rover gods :amen: she`s alive & purring :D. I checked the sump thread & all is good, so I torqued up the new sump plug & washer. I then went to fill the oil uo & I was going to try & crank it over on the pulley bolt but it looked a pain to access, so I just turned the key to...

    Oil Loss. Will it be ok ??

    True, I`ll have a look first light & post back on here. Tell me about it. I`m getting my sister to pop into town for me whilst I`m at work & get a sump plug & oil. As soon as I`m back from work @ approx 5:20 I`ll get a new sump plug in + oil & fire her up. I`ll report back on the outcome on...

    Good point, i`ll have a look in the morning as it`s an ali sump & that`ll be just my luck to top it off. Thank`s, Dan

    Oil Loss. Will it be ok ??

    Hi Guys, I did a full fluid & filters change + new injector Harness. I dropped the sump to change the Oil pump bolt for one with thread lock on it & gave it a full degrease & new sump gasket. Whilst doing the top cover up I left my mate to refit the sump plug & undertay, whilst I started...

    Well I've taken the first step.......

    +1 for a clarke. I`ve got a 160tm model wich is fine for up to 5mm. I bought this from weld equip on mig-welding.co.uk site, wich is really helpful for tips/tutorials. Don`t bother with the disposable bottles from Halfrauds etc as they last minutes & clean any metal back to a nce clean/shiny...

    The Time Has Come

    Hi, I`m not sure of your first choice but RJ landrovers are near me. I have a friend who bought his disco 2 from there & I can say they look after you. His turbo went & they fitted a replacement free of charge no quibbles. They do seem a bit pricey, but from what I`ve seen when I went there they...
