Bumpety bump

It is, It's a friend who works in air-conditioning so has all the gear and big bottles of refrigerant :D

Morning all, Had my Disco Td5 for 6 days now and am starting to hear things :eek: The most prominent is a slight ticking noise that seems to be coming from the gearbox or engine, sounds like tappets on an old ford engine or a worn thrust bearing that's starting to fail. Not sure if this is how...

Hi Stuart, I'm changing all the oils in mine (engine, gearbox, transfer box and both axles), replacing the coolant hoses for silicone and new coolant then going to generally tidy it up. Also hopefully getting my aircon re gassed tomorrow for £25 by a guy at work. Andy

Hi there Stanley, I have just spoken to Land rover Services (independent garage in Hull) and they know my car as the guy i bought it off took it there for its MOT's for the last 10 years so they know everything there is to know. The guys words when i told him what the reg was and who i bought...

This is a discovery? Just you mentioned aerodynamics! I'm confused :confused:

Put 3 air fresheners in as it was rather smelly from 206000 miles of 2 other owners. It'll soon smell like me :) Also shaved the drivers seat as the suede had become a bit bobbly!!

Hi from Hull Anyone else local? Andy

Hi Guys, I have purchased a Discovery 2, 2004 with 206000 miles on the clock (was i mad?). Everything apart from the aircon seems fine clutch, engine, gearboxes, electrics Suspension (rear airbags) and bodywork etc etc. Only had it since Saturday and had one simple coolant leak that's already...

Got my new Disco 2, 2004 on Saturday. Drove it 15 miles home then when I parked it up on the drive it decided to throw coolant all over the floor. Didn't move on the temp gauge so all good there. Found it was a small plug on the back of a pump under the turbo, it was really old and failed...

Morning all, Just a quick question, can anyone recommend and link a good water temperature gauge. Would like a digital unit. Many thanks in advance Andy

Ha ha, yeh I've read about the rust on the rear chassis and like most it's got a hole or 2 so will be buying the patch kit. All the lights are on and off on ignition so no problem there Didn't think to ask for the advisory from previously so thanks for that. Prety much what I've read about...

Hi all, Not got my new Disco 2 yet but been told by the owner (work friend) that there's about 6 months left on the MOT. I would like to preempt anything that may come up so that i will have the 6 months to get things sorted. What sort of things do i need to look out for on the Disco 2...
