When I recently booked a holiday with eurocamp I discovered that the motoring assist insurance does not cover vehicles over 15 years old and as my 02 Discovery will be over this when I go I wondered if anyone knows of alternative policies available.

The combination worked well for me towing all over north and mid wales and the M6, comfortably at 50+ on ordinary roads and 70 on the motorway without problems. I feel that the disco 2 td5 auto _(70k) I now drive whitest an easy lazy drive is just not as responsive as the manuals I used for towing.

Towed a twin axle, box body trailer with tail lift, total weight 2.5 tones loaded for ten years (15/20k miles a year) with disco td5 manual and averaged 20/22 mpg when towing and 30/32 mpg when not. Had both sprung and self levelling air suspension models and definitely preferred the slf air...

It worked for me on my d2 when I changed the battery without originally following the correct procedure and the key fob would not unlock the car until I had discharged any residual power in it.

It did for my 2002 td5 auto For more info see I R 4x4 web site Google replacing a battery in td5 key fob and look for 2 nd IR 4x4 thread on 2nd page.

It may be worth resyncing your key fob. Open the car and sitting in the driver's seat remove battery from key fob, press lock / unlock buttons for several seconds to drain any residual charge, replace battery, then press lock button four times followed by unlock button once and this should...

There are several causes of the m&s flashing. You need the fault codes reading by nanocom ,hawkeye or dedicated lr garage before going any further as genuine xyz switch is about £500 fitted. Even if the fault code indicates it is the xyz switch at fault this may not be the case as a fault in the...

How do you remove the A Bar STC50021 (soft plastic) from a 2002 pre facelift discovery. It has a top bracket and two u shaped brackets for spot lights. When removed does it leave any holes in bumper.

Post your question in the discovery forum and you will get a better response. Lists all the symptoms, i.e. flashing m+s lights , what about instrument panel and central console lights, limp home mode, is it all the time or if you switch off and back on again does it go away, does it come on...

Can you read a disco2 EKA code using a nonocom evo or do you need to get it from a main dealer.

Update Door locking problem now fixed by auto electrician wiring' fix' feed to xyz switch through a relay (on reflection I think he took the feed for the fix from the feed for the electric sunroof not installed, also a green / white wire which would be connected to the vehicle security system)...

Having driven to Visp in Switzerland several times from Manchester in a Discovery, stopping overnight in France to break the journey, I would suggest that you try to get further than Rheims on the first day as this is only 3 hours from Calais on the motorway, we usually stop in Dole or Troyes...

Update Auto electrician has wired a fix and it seems to be working but had thrown up a couple of problems . Not quite sure yet where he took the feed from but appears to be a light green / white wire which probably is the feed to the cigar lighter, which is from the auxiliary feed from ignition...

Has anyone used U Pol Raptor to renovate wheel arch trims that are degraded and pitted and if so what preparation did they do and how did they apply it, brush or spray.

Thanks sierrafery for your prompt replies to my questions. Auto electrician booked for tomorrow to wire fix so will post results once I have been for a long test run. Looked on internet and Turners advertise as repairing /replacing discovery BCU's, has anyone experience of using them.

Update No power at C0663 pin 10 when fault occurs. Auto electrician then powered system from battery through tester and all gear functions available. Suggested fix is to power system through independent fused feed bypassing BCU and see what happens. Question Are there external influences that...
