Just paid £320 on April 1st for a 2002 Td5 GS for 12 months tax

I just bought a centre bypass pipe. Was easy to do, just bolt in place of centre box. Think I got it from fleabay.

To be honest I heard more increase in noise when I lost the cat than when I removed the centre box. The centre box really doesn't do much apart from restrict a bit of power. It does not sound like a boy racers car at all. There's cars coming out of the factory with standard fit exhaust systems...

I'm running my Td5 with de cat and no centre box and the noise increase in minimal. Just a turbo whistle as revs increase and a low down growl as revs pick up. Nothing that is too noticeable from inside the car. Will be putting a side exit on later this year hopefully and then it will be a...

Where about are you? I have a nanocom in Plymouth if you need to use it to program keys. Let me know.

A 4x4 shouldn't be tested on rollers according to Mot testers handbook, a manual floor mounted tester should be used by driving the car on the road and measuring generated braking force. My Mot tester refuses to test my D2 on the rollers.

Sorry to hijack but would this solve the incorrect speed signal caused by different ratio or larger tyres.? https://www.ashcroft-transmissions.co.uk/speedo-correction-kit.html

I've got a Dixon fabrication bumper on mine. Was dictated by price when I purchased it. Very reasonable prices and option of led lights and "A bar" to mount spots or led bar on too. You can see it fitted to car on profile pic. Easy to fit too, unbolt factory bumper and bolt new one in place...

When I put a metal bumper on I kept the bottle, blanked off the headlight washer tubes and painted the washer bottle with silkaflex "blue top" primer. It's now hardly noticeable. A friend sprayed his with black paint but it started flaking off after a while so I used silkaflex primer and it's...

Almost at 113k. 2002 td5 and a totally rust free chassis. And a happy new year(almost) to everyone.

If you removed the 4 glow plugs to drain water then the 5th cylinder will still be full of water as it does not have a glow plug. Be careful as a friend did them same with a tiny little puddle and his BMW X3 and totally f#@&#d his engine and ended up with a new engine through insurance, lol...

It's screwed into the rear of fuel filter housing. The outside rear pipe if I remember correctly connects to it. I don't think all discos have them fitted though if I remember correctly. Also I have a feeling I remember something about the ECU throwing a wobbly if battery voltage is too low...

Some one will be along in a minute who will probably have a better idea of what could be the problem.

I had almost exactly the same thing happen 2wks ago with same symptoms. Car died on Slip road. RAC flatbed to get home. Checked fault codes with nanocom, none. Checked Ecu plug, oily. Put new injector loom in and cleaned plug out next day and car ran intermittently better. Next day car died...

Does it not say in the owners manual.? Just a thought.

My discovery is a 2002 td5..cat is in garage just in case it ever gets picked up on mot and needs to be refitted (as is egr valve, lol).

The Discovery 2 Vin has an 8 or 9 in it (5th digit I think) to denote if car was fitted with cat or without when built. Check to see if the defender is the same, I would have thought so. Should list details in RAVE. My discovery 2 passed its mot last Friday again with no cat fitted with no...

These have worked for me on various rounded nuts and bolts. Available in various sizes. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F221924576544

Are you still hunting for a nanocom.?
