    Hill and Ditch 4x4 28th April 2024

    I wanted to but the D2 is currently parked over a puddle of gearbox oil on my drive. If the new pipe turns up before Saturday lunchtime then it might be doable, but otherwise it's not happening.

    Expansion tank pipes

    The pipe in your hand is the one that's supposed to go the radiator. The other pipe is the one that's supposed to point down. I'm not sure if them being the wrong way around makes any difference though.

    D2 Td5 intermittent cutting out/stalling

    The flange on the front of the cam has indicators for when each the injector lobe for each cylinder is at full lift. There's a picture here: https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/injector-timing-marks.203615/ RAVE doesn't mention them as part of the procedure for adjusting the injector...

    D2 air deflector

    It is the bracket for the side step. Those probably haven't been available on their own new for years but the part numbers are here: https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/parts/index/part/id/14.55780.56174.59670/brand/land-rover/

    Buy an old discovery or not !

    Absolutely. I'm not saying he shouldn't go and look, or even that he shouldn't buy it, just that he shouldn't pay £3500 for it.

    Buy an old discovery or not !

    Yeah but those advisories mean there's welding needed in 2 places sooner rather than later. The rear arch is easy access for welding, around the brake servo probably less so. It's not a £3500 car, especially with those advisories.

    D2 Td5 intermittent cutting out/stalling

    Getting the injector timing right when refitting is important too - use the timing indicators on the cam rather than eyeballing it.

    D2 Td5 - EGR Delete, should also remove vaccum solenoid?

    As long as you've capped the connection on the pipe from the vacuum pump to the brake booster then yes.

    D2 Td5 - EGR Delete, should also remove vaccum solenoid?

    You need to blank the connection in the middle of the vacuum pipe that goes to the solenoid, then you can unplug it and remove it if you want.

    Top Nut missing on the starter, Disco2 TD5 Auto

    It's fine without the top nut, a lot of people leave it off.

    Hill and Ditch 4x4 28th April 2024

    I normally avoid pay & play but going with other people who don't want to go mental is tempting. I'm up for this if the D2 doesn't break when I'm out laning the weekend before. I know a Shropshire route that's non-damaging, optionally via a pub for lunch. Possibly a Warks route too but I've not...

    D2 boys club

    Latest update from the FB group is that the issue causing it to be down is being looked at currently.

    Driver demand problem 1

    Accel 1 + Accel 2 should add up to the supply voltage give or take 10%. IIRC Accel 3 should be close to Accel 2.

    2004 D2 Headlight Bulbs

    The trade off is better light output for shorter life, all brands will be similar. I've had a pair of those Nightbreaker Laser +150% for 3.5 years, and a pair of the Nightbreaker Ultimate +200% for 2.5 years without issue though, so it's not like the life of them is particularly terrible.

    Disco 2 ACE technical questions

    New only from LR as far as I'm aware. I just went with a used but tested one last time I needed one.

    Disco 2 ACE technical questions

    It's an attenuator. The coils are the same on the D2 and RRS, at least on later D2s.

    Heavy black smoke and very poor fuel economy

    They are but they'll still provide an "aggresive smoke" map if a customer asks. Definitely check what fery suggests first but there is a chance a previous owner asked for it.

    Height Sensors D2

    Ride height sensors are RQH100030. Genuine are £110 each so I wouldn't bother. I've had a pair of the Britpart sensors for over nearly 4 years without issue. They're a 3rd of the price. The Britpart "OEM" ones are also available for a price somewhere in the middle. Air bags RKB101200. Contitech...

    Td5 15p headache

    I think that was the Pace 4x4 injector loom. It claims to be sealed to stop the oil going up the loom. The genuine injector loom is no longer available from LR. I've had the Britpart AMR6103G loom for 3+ years without issue.
