Sorry, I meant the mounts are in front of the hole so I can't push anything up the hole, there is a few mm gap between them and the body if the drain hole is where I think it is From this thread is where I think the drain exit is...

When I poured water in to the drain it filled up the channel then went through the holes that access the headliner so I assume that it then sits on the headliner until I brake for the first corner from my house to come out of the front of the liner, then as I turn the water moves in the drain to...

Hi everyone, sorry it's been a while I had a couple of other projects that wanted me before I got a chance to look at my discovery Thanks for this, it worked great I tested the drains in the sunroof and the passenger drain is blocked, all the guides I found of people unblocking the drains...

Hi everyone So I have just got my discovery 2 on the road again, after more than 2 years and I'm having some water leaks that I want to sort out, and I was hoping someone might know how to fix them. The main one happened for a third time yesterday when I left my house and on the second turn...

December 9th 2022 (and the gearbox failed a few months prior to this thread being made) I finally have my discovery 2 back I said I would update this thread even if it is almost 2 years later so here it is, My discovery runs and drives again and I've had it 2 weeks and done about 150 miles in...

Update So.... It needs a gearbox I'm going to get a second hand gearbox for it and I've seen quite a few ranging from one that's done 64k but £450!! and to one that's done 140k for £100 Any advice on buying a second hand gearbox? Its been a year since it blew the gearbox And in the meantime I...

No it isn't

Middle of the boot about 10 cm from the back door and the back door card is wet It has a rubber boot liner in it that has caught the water

Well, here we are back again So it went to someone who actually knows what they are doing and they found the selector wasn't adjusted properly and then told me that it was perfectly fine I told him to keep it for a week as I was sure that wasn't the only problem and it didn't take long for it to...

I bet yours worked after as well

I am sure I did the level right Cooler line is a very good idea especially as the last box died of overheating how would I test the lines and clear them?

Some metal on the magnet but no large pieces only some fine metal so it wasn't too bad and the fluid was brownish with a slight tint of red

'decent' lol I think not Well it dropped about 3.5l of oil bear in mind it also dropped 1 to 2l previously as then took barely 3l after i fitted the new filter and was no better After running it for a bit then shutting it off and restarting it works but then going again is intermittent I'm...

Yeah who would do such a thing? So I have an excuse at least. So nothing really happened I borrowed a ranger to do the towing I needed and just left it Just recently I decided that I should fix it and I brought fresh oil and a filter and I am going to start work on it today I'll put an update...

I've known him for quite a while and he's a family friend. I'm moving a house this weekend so he turned it out as fast as he could from me so maybe he made a mistake because he was in a rush...

I'm not sure one it's going it shifts fine and goes on the torque converter as normal but takes ages of idling before the gearbox will engage in the first place it just sits there and after a while I'll shift to drive again and the revs drop as it finally engages but now it takes 15 min and last...

My old box started pouring smoke on the m25 pulling an empty car transporter 2 hours into the home journey after 4 hours loaded on the way there (with a Ford sierra for weight reference) and it when completely dead with no gears at all (i forced it to a services still with drive up until i...

Also im not holding back money to the mechanic for this, i only picked it up on Friday and he hadn't invoiced it then

I tested the car this morning after it kicked out the fluid and it was even worse with trying to engage gears it took 10 mins before the box would engage So i sat thinking I'm going to have to spend more money on this, then i noticed the word 'more' i haven't paid the mechanic who did the job...

Think it was them yeah and I probably need to do the same I'm sure from them the ecu is solid I'll put some updates on in the morning after I've messed with it
