    SRD000150 is the first upgraded version and the 500070 has even more upgrade.

    I can't see any reason for that

    Disco 2 pre face lift cdl and tc

    If some people didnt have problems means that they were lucky to not get into the worst scenario, if you lock the diff while the engine is running the TC will work normally then if you get stuck turn ignition off then on as the lights to come on and the TC disabled... though even if you'll have...

    The TC warning light has nothing to do with the wire i mentioned, not affected, cutting that wire the ECU will not "know" that the diff is locked and the TC can come in conflict with the locked diff in some cases that's all, while the newer ECU is conceived as the CDL and TC to work together

    It does only with the new SLABS... with early ECU if the CDL input wire was cut there are scenarios when you can lose traction for good and overheat the brakes... you can borrow nanocom for a week on ebay if you can't find somebody to help

    Just lock the diff before you start the engine as the ABS/TC lights to be on then the TC will not work against the CDL...provided that the wire i mentioned was not cut

    Disco 2 Diff lock control, manual or electric?

    IMO my answer was not ambiguous at all but i'll try to clarify :

    Disco 2 pre face lift cdl and tc

    it acts in a well engineered manner on wheels and axles which is more complicated than the simple description from the WSM and i know that based on many live tests in field and dyno platform with live data readings , the gist is that the better solution is to have the uprated ECU fitted if the...

    Disco 2 pre face lift cdl and tc

    then you should learn first how these things work cos TC acts in axle pairs too not just on one wheel so if the props are locked while for example a rear left and a front right whell are spinning the TC would try to equalise on each axle first then on both but the locked props will force things...

    Disco 2 Diff lock control, manual or electric?

    re-connect??? so it was once connected then disconnected by the PO??? 2001 modell might not have the "hardware" for that, are you sure you have what to "re-connect"? if the TB has the diff-lock spigot and working with a a spanner you are the only man who can decide how to actuate it important is...

    As long as you didnt cut the cdl input wire to the slabs like some smart guys say you should nothing bad can happen cos the TC will be inghibited to not work against the locked diff with the early ECU.. as about i have no other comment though i'd like to see the arguments of some who say it...

    Disco 2 changing out slab unit

    Hi, it needs programming to set it exactly to your vehicle's equipment unless it was removed from a 100% similar modell like your's which is quite unlikely and i doubt you can be sure of that

    Disco 2 air diff lock removal

    then fix the diff-lock switch or it's circuit as to make the warning to work cos even if you fit a mechanical linkage you can't be sure the diff is locked or unlocked unill the warning shows it's on or off, plenty of info about that...

    Info for Bump starting a TD5 and checking injectors with a Nanocom

    I must insist for the last time to measure the battery voltage WHILE CRANKING, the fact that the battery is new is irrelevant if there is a draw while cranking for some reason and the voltage drops more than 2V it will not start
