    D2 Td5 Air Suspension

    After some testing with a friend, squirty bottle of washing up liquid and some torches he found the top of the airbag union to pipe had a small air leak. Using help from Discovery2.co.uk Air Suspension Guide we’re looking at options. Getting back after caravan break revealed D2 lower on this side.

    D2 Td5 Air Suspension

    Testing today was not a testing day. I hooked up my caravan, and the suspension dropped and did not rise even though the compressor was running. It did lift up a little bit, but as the compressor was running all the time it didn’t seem to cope and lift the vehicle up, then the compressor...

    D2 Td5 Air Suspension

    update: ignition on without the hawkeye plugged in lets the suspension drop. With codereader plugged in it holds the suspension up. I can’t do anything bonnet up at work such as disconnecting the battery

    D2 Td5 Air Suspension

    I’ve finally had a chance to do something with it while I’m on standby at work. Earlier earlier parked in a different spot I was chatting with a colleague and we were sitting on the back and it went down. Running the engine pumped it back up. The error codes I had were: 4150: Historical Rear...

    D2 Td5 Air Suspension

    The fact the air goes down evenly is a bit odd. I had this before changing the compressor. It went down and failed to pump up necessitating a flatbed taxi. I have left the car for days locked up without the suspension moving, even with a trailer attached. Perplexing. If I plugged a code...

    Ok Sierrafery ;) When the airbags are releasing because I’m sat on the tailgate, I don’t hear hissing or anything. It just gently goes down.

    D2 Td5 Air Suspension

    Hi Folks I have a 2002 Discovery II with air suspension. I have had a few issues of late, and replacing the compressor and valve blocks have not fixed it. Normally when I lock the car the suspension stays up. I can leave it for most of the week and the suspension stays up. But if I unlock the...

    Discovery 2 Solar Setup

    Yes. I had the smalller one on there previously ant it fitted the 6 switches I used already. However, I got the larger one to fit the dial for the Victron rather than mounting it anywhere else. The drawback of it there means that at the moment I can't really use the Overlander GPS unit on the...

    Front lights

    When I had my Series 3 LR my hazards were also too slow. I ended up replacing the flasher relay I think. Being Ex Military it was a bit more complicated.

    Hi. This post is in the wrong place. This place is for introductions. For the L322 RR you can try RR Section. There are also other forums for 'common problems' and stuff like that.

    Discovery 2 Solar Setup

    I've had a variety of projects on my 2002 Discovery 2 TD5, and the latest batch have started just after Lockdown. I did previously have a large boot box that could be folded out to make a sleeping platform but wanted something a bit more suitable to my needs, so got something else. A seperate...

    Disco 2 ARB Compressor Mounting

    I've looked into a few places and ended up mounting it in the nearside seat well in the boot. There was already a power feed there and we* moved the bracket for the FT857 further forward and bolted the compressor to a helpfully placed metal bar that also supported some electrical points and was...

    Webasto ST2000 Airtop £1k Fitting & certification from Webasto service technicians £600 These days I value my safety a lot more than I used to, plus also this is a long-term plan and I also don’t have garage facilities to do it myself. I am loosely following the plans and photos from the CZ...

    Other what have u done on ur disco today

    Have finally started the final procedure for getting the auxiliary diesel heater fitted to the discovery. Much planning and back and forth between myself and the garage, and looking at other sources for information to support my plan, and the placement of the heater. It is going in the boot in...

    LR Disco 2 Owner

    So. Since having it I have added a few bits, and despite the initial model it already had leather seats as extra. So I added to it with the help of friends and a work colleague. Despite some obvious holes in the trim, they have now been appropriately filled back in. The lights are great, to a...

    That lifeboat was at Whitby, and you can google about it. It weighs 3.5t including the trailer and is legal to be towed around but they specify by LR. Which is nice considering. However, there had been configuration issues at the time about the layout of the load of which I was not made aware...

    Disco 2 ARB Compressor Mounting

    Hi Folks I've got a 2002 D2 TD5 with a front metal bumper and winch. It has a second battery in the engine bay on the passenger side against the bulkhead. It has SLS fitted and working, but I am wanting to fit an ARB compressor. I've looked around. There is no room in the engine bay. I am...

    LR Disco 2 Owner

    Whilst the red one was nice, it didn't last. I did well with it, and got a few ideas. A lot of use, and made good friends around. But it was taken, unexpectedly, from the rear. I stopped at the white line, in the auto, and foot on the brake pedal. It was a small humpback bridge with traffic...

    LR Disco 2 Owner

    I ended up on regular cars for a bit, as I got into truck driving and needed to do distance work just to get to work. Rover 400 did me well, and on winter tyres it was absolutely stunning. I got places i never thought I would. I would often only lose grip because the front spoiler was lifting...

    So. After the cherrypickers, I got a job locally to where I lived on public transport and I helped out a friend by looking after his ex-girlfriends landie. It was bought for her but she decided to return it as it was quite expensive to run and needed some TLC... So for about 2-3 years, I drove...
