    Disco 2 Rear Suspension issue

    I manually deflated the bag by unscrewing the pipe from the valve block, back to roughly normal ride height and as soon as I drove the car again it reinflated itself. Luckily I was doing about 3mph as I turned into my street.

    Disco 2 Rear Suspension issue

    Yeah, the situation got worse...the nearside air spring exploded earlier on. It scared the absolute life out of me. I can only imagine that the sensor is faulty and the compressor kept topping the bag up with more air until it couldn't take it anymore. I will be phoning the garage in the...

    Disco 2 Rear Suspension issue

    That's a good idea, thanks. Am I likely to need the sensors (whether swapped or new) to be calibrated afterwards?

    Disco 2 Rear Suspension issue

    Hi folks, I have a weird air suspension issue and am not sure where the problem is. I was filling up with fuel yesterday and the passenger side randomly inflated itself to the maximum height. I ended up driving off with the car leaning over and found it corrected itself a mile or so down the...

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    I fixed both rear electric windows on my Disco 2 this morning. I though both had duff switches so swapped one of the switches from the centre console on to the rear door. It still didn't work, but happened to have noticed a spare wire behind the centre switch panel. It turned out the brown...

    Discovery 2 EGR removal/blanking

    Technically, yes it is an MOT fail however...the EGR is underneath the engine cover and testers aren't allowed to remove covers etc. as part of the test. So, on that basis, if they can't see there is a blanking plate then they can't fail it :)

    D2 activating headlights with lock button

    My 2000 Disco 2 does this too. I found out by accident in a car park a few weeks' ago!

    Mirror Rocker broken

    Thanks for your help Stanleysteamer - I left it overnight and it seems more secure...the mirror glass is now back on thankfully. I hate driving with a mirror missing!

    Mirror Rocker broken

    Hi Discool, Its the diagonal piece of white plastic that acts as a rocker, it sits in the middle of the bracket that fits on to the glass but is fixed on the motor. I have included a reference pic, taken before the blasted thing broke. Mine has snapped at the bottom right, in between the two...

    Mirror Rocker broken

    Somehow the little white piece of plastic behind the mirror glass has broken, and I'm struggling to get the mirror glass back on. Has this happened to anyone else, and if so how did you fix it?! I have tried Gorilla glue but it doesn't seem to hold enough for me to get the glass on.

    Disco 2 Door Gremlins

    Haha! I said something similar Stanley steamer, until I tried it and the door still didn't work. This happens both when the car is and isn't running, so would agree with the mechanical issue. Perhaps as with my rear driver's door, a replacement of the door lock actuator may resolve? Nig43...

    Disco 2 Door Gremlins

    Ever since owning my D2 (a year now), the rear driver's side door is slow to unlock, much slower than all of the other doors and sometimes take an extra press of the unlock button. On the same door, the electric window switch doesn't work however, I can control the window from the main switch...

    Sorry, newbie question ..

    I've been pretty silent here for a while, reading other's posts and threads with interest. I have learned a wealth of information already...although I know there are thousands of things I don't know. I have a couple more questions I would like help with so will start separate threads for those...

    Sorry, newbie question ..

    I had seen, but not read the manual page you included...apparently work comes first :(

    Sorry, newbie question ..

    Neilly, I was referring to the lid covering the air suspension compressor rather than the main battery. It's useful information that shall be considered in future though! Stanley steamer, thanks for the information...I will look further into the wading advice in the manual. You'd like to think...

    Sorry, newbie question ..

    I have had my Disco 2 for about a year now. Prior to that, my Dad owned it for roughly 7 years. In that time it's never been through water...it's something I have been wary of because of the air compressor underneath. Will there be any issues with it flooding, or the electrics? As an additional...

    Disco 2 Not the usual sunroof question...

    I had a feeling that would be the answer...I might see if I can fashion something together to wedge put in place to fix the rattle. Thanks for your help discool.

    Disco 2 Not the usual sunroof question...

    I have a Disco 2 and am one of the few it seems who likes to use the sunroof on those rare days we have the right weather to! The downside with my front sunroof is that the plastic clip holding the pin in place to stop it rattling is broken. Needless to say, the sunroof rattles right above my...

    Disco 2 SUNROOFS AGAIN

    My front one leaks at times. I put some sealant around the exterior where it meets the roof panel and the leak has slowed down considerably. I do use my sunroof when the weather allows, but find the glass rattles something chronic because the little rubber ring thingy is missing off the guide...

    Breaking Disco TD5

    Do you have the lid for the suspension air compressor box? Mine fell off and got flattened :(
