You could just buy a used engine compartment fusebox which will have them all plus relays - I got one from ebay for about £10 that should keep me going...... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rover-Discovery-Td5-lights-fusebox-switch-panel/273910515365?hash=item3fc656c6a5:g:Z2kAAOSw6rhc89QV

How does the torsional stiffness of the ACE bar compare to that of the standard ARB? I would have thought that it was substantially stiffer to provide the flat cornering stance.

Not if his ACE is working.......

I'm fully behind Fery who has provided invaluable help to very many people on this forum. I suggest you (Mackay) retreat to facebook where you can hang out with your pals. You will be no loss to this forum.

Do you have RAVE? That has all the circuit diagrams you need. I see after a brief look that the A/C clutch relay is switched by an earth from the ECM on a black / silver wire through connector CO577-2. According to the relevant page in RAVE, "Operation of the clutch is controlled by the Engine...

There are only 3 real points of failure on SLS - the bags themselves, the compressor and the height sensors. All are reasonably easy to get to and fix and not frighteningly expensive. I really like the air suspension especially for towing as it gives the correct ride height without needing...

The "proper" Texaco ACE / power steering fluid is indeed green but the same spec alternative from Smith & Nephew is apparently clear.

I don't think that map's right by the way - the 2021 ULEZ is the area inside the North & South Circulars. Quite good for us as we quite often use Crystal Palace Caravan Club site which involves towing the caravan round the South Circular. An entertaining experience.....

I think a D2 automatic is a lovely car for crawling in traffic. My 2001 is my only car so is a daily driver (but as I'm retired I don't have to commute!) The only issue would be fuel consumption - clearly the Disco would be heavier than many others but I would suggest doing the sums. PCP would...

Anybody here actually had their wheels stolen?

To be honest, if you keep the D2 more than a year or so you'll almost certainly save more than the cost of the Nanocom etc.

Mine occasionally makes that noise and has done for 9 years. The only problem was when the relay welded its contacts together so I had to remove the fusible link to stop it! Mine also adjusts the height sometimes when stopped at lights etc if there is an appreciable side slope. Again, I don't...

I'd say it should be OK. When I've had this it's always been the battery - either on its last legs or flattened for some reason.

What are these ironics you speak of?

Warranties are rarely worth more than the paper they're written on, especially if the faults were existing when you bought the vehicle. As for getting your money back - well, unless the seller actually made false claims you're not in a very strong position as it's a private sale not from a...

They don't - it looks like a single reservoir but the 2 fluids are kept separate by a partition.

After owning a D2 for 9 years it is my definite opinion that unless you have bottomless pockets a decent D2-specific diagnostic tool is essential. I still have the nanocom 1 I bought in my first couple of years and it must have saved me many hundreds of pounds. Without one you're shooting in...

Tail light: I would look at the earth. If it's bad the indicator and reversing light on that side will also be dim. Failing that, connector / bulb holder. Washer: the non return valve in mine failed and blocked the pipe. You have to take the door card off to get at it. You do know that when the...

Those holes are intentional so that water coming off the front of the gutters does not flood across the screen but goes down inside the A pillars to exit through the (hopefully not blocked) drain holes. I blocked those holes in the top with silicone before I realised this and water does run...

I agree. Mine has done 21.34 over the 60,000 miles I've had it. Probably 12,000 miles of that towing a 1.5 tonne caravan. A lot of the rest short journeys, but when it's on the open road always driven at the speed limit where possible. I've recorded every single litre of fuel that's gone into...
