    Clive Sinclair in Neath are great but dont do big jobs anymore. Real shame. Try Mills Motors for small stuff.

    Disco 2 Loud Rattle/knocking from ACE pump?

    Wow that’s horrendous. Id say that pump is not happy. Air in the system doesnt do that! Its pumping but would say the movement in the res is that great, but hard to see. Check for play on the pulley with belt off on the pump. Is it getting hot in the pump? They dont like running dry fir very...

    Disco decisions

    D1 is easier to maintain and they all have central diff lock. No ECU to drown and so on. But finding a good one is not easy. To keep D2 body rust at bay make sure there is none, and treat with dynax s50 or similar. If rust is there i use wire brushes, fertan then dynax. Treat the sills.

    Disco 2 ACE Fault 20-04

    Yes they are 3/8, but 10mm olives/comp fittings will work and are cheaper. However, putting 3/8 bsp fittings into the block can be tricky as they foul each other unless offset. Some 3/8 fittings may have a smaller nut i dont know. I used 1/4 into the block then 3/8 hose on the main lines and...

    Disco 2 Front hub replacement, which make ?

    I need to do those ball joints also but from advice it looks like a swine. Getting the knuckle off the tapers seems to require extreme violence. Do post how your tool went as i may follow suit and buy the same one. Best of luck.

    Disco 2 ACE Fault 20-04

    That stuff just causes soft seals to swell and stop leaks. There are no such seals on the ACE system that i know of as its high pressure. The valve block uses the horrible plastic inserts. Id pull that block, strip it, tap it for hydraulic fittings and flush the whole system out. Then hope...

    Disco 2 Front hub replacement, which make ?

    Its a shame originals are crazy money, so you just have to go oem. They are around £100, the £50 ish hubs are not worth bothering over.

    Discovery 2 exhaust upgrade

    I dont find it loud at all, not over the noise of the mud terrains anyway. I think it sounds great. You need a remap to make it worth your while though

    Disco 2 Plastic wheel arches

    Try some Wurth Plastic dye in black. That stuff is hands down the best product available for plastic trim. It works.

    Disco 2 A few issues proving difficult to resolve depite many new parts

    The 15p is more sensitive to MAF outputs as it uses a different type of engine management map. A genuine maf is recommended therefore on a 15p. As has been said, disconnecting the maf puts a generic figure in the ecu calculations and it should run better, if your MAF is guff. It will display a...

    Cdl siezed please help

    If you cant move it by rocking back and forth in gear, you can strip back the trans tunnel fascia and take out the cover to access from above. You can remove the selector but accessing the internal gubbins means taking the trans box nose off, as the gearbox is in the way. The nose will come off...

    Disco 2 A few issues proving difficult to resolve depite many new parts

    Vibration on mine was cured after an oil change. So it was either the centrifugal filter or fully synthetic oil. What maf did you fit? Is it a 15p? Map been cleaned? Have you checked boost hoses for leaks? Fuel pump noisy? Id replace a leaking IC. What size tyres is it on?
