    Disco 2 M & Lights flashing when engine is cold

    Unfortunately only time will tell. While it is an intermittent fault it is very difficult to diagnose. At this time only advice I can give is if you have your fault codes read and fault code 705 xyz gear positioning switch fault appears do not take it as given that the switch is faulty only...

    Discovery TD5 bcu issues?

    Your list of faults do seem to indicate that your bcu is the culprit and unfortunately the bcu is unrepairable except by an expert ( Search CALLROVA).

    M & S switch flashing.

    From my experiences with flashing m&s lights they in themselves and any problems they may indicate should not stop you from starting the engine. Rather failure to start the engine due to poor electrical connections or failing battery would cause the m&s lights to flash as the auto gearbox...

    Blocking EGR without removing it

    I don't know the layout of the defender egr system but on the discovery td5 there is an intermediate bracket on the pipe to support it, (on mine it was missing so the broken pipes).

    Blocking EGR without removing it

    I take it that your egr system is like the one on the discovery td5 Euro 2 with the straight through pipe from exhaust manifold to egr valve, without the cooler. If so, from personal experience of 3 broken pipes in as many weeks, these pipes need to be supported properly as they fracture...

    Td5 autobox fault

    Do the m&s lights flash. If you have access to dedicated diagnostics check that your vehicle is still registered as an automatic as apparently it is a known fault for it to change to a manual without reason. If you have the fault codes read and they say xyz switch fault, please be aware that...
