    Disco 2 'O' Ring

    Disco 2 FPR pipe unscrewed from cylinder head

    Thank you for confirming that. And good luck with your oil pump bolt. Don’t envy you, at least mine is all accessible from the top!

    Disco 2 FPR pipe unscrewed from cylinder head

    Well, it’s happened again, this time from the cylinder head end, last time from the FPR. The diesel slick behind and the diesel stink made me think something may be wrong!! Luckily I was only a road from home and just got into the drive. The power steering gave up from all the diesel on the...

    Bstard bolt came loose on oil pump land rover d2 td5

    You are correct! From the LR Diesel Engine TD5 manual: Fracture split con-rods The con-rod is identical in design to the con-rod fitted to the Freelander L series engine. It is a fracture split con-rod. This means that the big end bearing cap has no machined surface in contact with the...

    Getting in my discovery td5

    As per what Ferry said, but do you have another key fob you can try? Also, if you are very lucky, sometimes if you hold the fob as close to the RF receiver in the roof near the rear sunroof and operate unlock it will unlock. Good luck.

    Td5 discovery 2 struggling to start and running rough

    Check out http://www.discovery2.co.uk/Injector%20Seals.html The copper washers can cause your symptoms. The seals will only cause diesel in the oil. They are fairly easy to change.

    Discovery 2 2004 HSE find radio code (before disconnecting the battery)

    Just checked, mine is definitely a *4* digit code and it is the R990 radio, which I think is the same as yours, “top of the range” at the time. I have disconnected the battery since and the code in the manual is the correct one!!

    Discovery 2 2004 HSE find radio code (before disconnecting the battery)

    +1 ^ it’s the way I did it when I first got mine. I found the radio code scribbled in the handbook and also the EKA code. You can’t change the radio code as you can the EKA.

    D2 TD5 Firing before in crank position

    From the ignition switch, it goes through fuse 23 in the IDM. From there it goes to the engine bay fuse box and is connected to the starter relay. There appear to be no other connections so it should be fairly easy to trace. Good luck.

    Brake problem , advice needed

    Worth opening a bleed nipple or 2 to see if there is pressure in the system. About the only thing common to all 4 wheels. Master cylinder seized? Good luck.
