    Disco 2 Towing (a little OT)

    I was driving the D2 today and what worries me is the number of artics that I see broaching the white line - I kept thinking how close to the van they would have been. But I suppose if they see the van coming then they would move over - it's only like two artics meeting isn't it?

    Disco 2 Towing (a little OT)

    I realise that it will tow it :) - I'm just concerned about navigating our country byways with 2.5m width.

    Disco 2 dynachip

    Just to add a bit more juice to the thread - Mike did mine a while back and we backed down the wastegate actuator that a PO had wound in. Now it's adjusted back to about 11 threads and the wastegate actuator is all reconnected. When towing the caravan up to Yorkshire and back I had the nanocom...

    Disco 2 Towing (a little OT)

    I have a 2000 D2 and currently tow a 2.2m wide caravan. We are looking to upgrade and have found some continental 6.4m 2000kg vans that we really fancy. But they are 2.5m wide (the legal limit) Has/does anyone tow a 2.5m wide trailer and how difficult is it - any issues/problems that you have...

    Disco 2 Looking for a sound Discovery 2

    Yes, I think owning a D2 and relying upon a garage to fix it is a recipe for a very unhappy life. If you own a D2 then you pretty much need to be willing to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in. As long as you own 3 hammers of various sizes, a 1m breaker bar and a Nanocom then you can pretty...

    Disco 2 Looking for a sound Discovery 2

    If you find a good one that has rear chassis rot but is good apart from that, then you can have a rear quarter chassis fitted - either plain or galvanized for around £400 labour plus £250-£300 for the parts. A rotten rear chassis is no longer a reason to write off an otherwise sound D2 :) This...

    Bad noise from front,

    21 yo means 1996 so you are right, it must be a D1 :)

    Bad noise from front,

    Join a few 4x4 forums on Facebook and there is always someone breaking a D2 - you will get a t box a lot cheaper than eBay. If your D2 is solid, rot and leak free then it's worth spending a few quid on her - anything you buy within your budget is going to need money spending on it anyway -...

    Bad noise from front,

    My local Land Rover garage (http://www.oandovehicleengineering.com/contact-land-rover-specialist) charge £40 an hour and charge only for the hours involved. If think if they couldn't do it in 4 hours then they would be disgusted with themselves. You need to find a local Land Rover specialist..

    Bad noise from front,

    My friend just bought a good used one off of eBay for £24 - no point in buying a new part for a 20+ year old car.

    Disco 2 Fault diagnosis 99 TD5 Auto

    Thanks all - we'll pull the handbrake and check first :) Also one other issue - the oil was changed at the start of the journey and filled to the full notch - after 300 miles the oil is at the U of FULL - but it doesn't smell of diesel. Is there a way to test to see if there is diesel in the...

    Am driving a friends 1999 Disco 2 TD5 Automatic and it's a little different to mine - some good and some bad. Trying to work out what's wrong with it - any ideas? Got it on the Nanocom and found a dead MAF - swapped for another working one Engine blows blue smoke on startup and inlet and...

    Disco 2 No AC - any ideas?

    When I depress the pin in the Low side fill valve I get a definite hiss - so it has some in for sure but whether it's enough I don't know yet. I'll bypass the LP switch to see if it fires up. Have to start looking for a good used air con electric fan now too :)
