I know it's not the same but i did this on a mark 4 cortina many years ago and the auto box had a switch on to disable the starter motor when in either drive or reverse, starter will only operate when in manual or park, i kept it as a security device so you had to press the switch manually...

When i got my disco i just rang local land rover dealer, gave them my reg number and they gave me code over the phone, i was expecting to have to show them the log book but no just the phone call Paul

Where abouts are you? there's only a small number of different locking nuts, if your anywhere near BB12 (Burnley) you can try mine (there's a letter stamped on it) then buy one from local landrover dealer

What have you already tried? have you changed the diesel filter, what milage is on the vehicle, when does it cut out? under heavy load or high speed or just randomly?

Hi I had the same problem last year, you can remove the green oval badge on the outside of the handle/locking mechanism and have a fiddle about, with mine it was the release rod that had fallen off due to having to slam the door due to dropped hinges, don't know if you've tried this but hope it...

called main dealer yesterday total of £75 and some pence, but need ordering in, may take 2 days, available on ebay for £85, so if anyone knows where they are available cheaper i would be interested but if not i don't think £75 is bad

Thanks for that Paul

Hi James thanks for the quick reply, what a top bloke to offer a complete stranger so much help, if you've done a few is it a long job? and where abouts are you? Thanks again Paul

Hi all just bought a 2004 TD5 Discovery with a known clutch/gearbox fault. On the drive back home (about 35 miles on fast A roads) the gears from 1st 2nd 3rd crunch if doing a normal gear change, if revs allowed to drop to 1000-1500 gears will go in ok, on down shift they seem to crunch whatever...

Thanks for the fast reply. Paul
