I have drained it off now into an oil drain pan which I previously drained the transfer box oil into, the fluid from the gearbox has gone straight to the bottom, in other words the transfer box oil is floating on it – so definitely water the gearbox. The vehicle is new to me so the previous...

Its 32mm head plug - but you cant get a good socket or impact driver on it due to proximity of prop drive flange. However!! I did try heat carefully with a blowtorch , gently heating the surrounding casing, then a 32mm ring spanner on the nut and a wack with a copper head hammer and it shifted...

I think you are right, looks like emulsified oil doesn't it!

Checking the oils in my 2002 Discovery 2 TD5 today, manual gearbox, and I got some oil to flow out of the filler plug on the gearbox and it is to my view a very strange colour – see the picture below, ignore the gritty bits on the scraper, that was from cleaning around the filler plug. It's a...

Thanks for the reply!

The wheel arch flares on my Disco 2 are looking pretty shabby, somebody has previously painted them with I don't know what, they are almost a gloss finish – I would like to get them back to looking something like the original plastic matt finish after giving the current coating a thorough...

Thanks for that, appreciated

The coin holder and ashtray on my Disco 2 don't pop out any more and on investigating the springs that should be fixed to the unit they sit in have broken off and disappeared somewhere in the back of the dashboard area – it would be a major task to pull everything out to try and retrieve them...

That makes sense now - thanks! I will see about getting the ECU reset :)

Yes, thanks, that makes sense though the fuse removed is clearly air suspension as it has that symbol on the fuse board cover, so how the compressor can have any power is strange.i will run the engine today and see if the same tick noise still there. I'm going to contact a local independent LR...

Don't believe is the battery, checked it out with a tester, 90% fit Point is the fuse for the air suspension is removed, so how can it be attempting to self level, operate?

Someone answering this question properly deserves a prize! Bought a 2002 Discovery 2 yesterday, previous owner had converted it from air to coil springs at the rear and simply removed the fuse appropriate to the air suspension rather than having the ECU reprogrammed to 'spring'. Drives...

Whhops! Disco 2, though the reference to air to spring and ACC probably gave that away :)

Hi all, this question has probably been asked many times so sorry if I'm repeating it but I like to absolutely confirm which NANOCOM diagnostic tool will allow me to reset suspension from air to coil after a refit and also generally be used for items such as bleeding the ABS – as well as course...

Looking to buy a 1994 Disco which has around 80,000 miles on the clock and has basically been very low use vehicle for many years. 300 TDI with receipt to show that the timing belt was changed in 2002 at around 60,000 miles, so on a mileage basis it shouldn't need changing now but is now 10...

Looking for my next Land Rover as I am selling my D90 and having always had a fondness for ex-military (owned two lightweights in the past) thought I might look into getting a 90 or 110 ex military. So I have been looking around and saw Witham Specialist Vehicles have a few, oddly they also seem...

Thanks for that, I've looked them up on the net and there are some very positive old reviews on their but it appears the product is no longer available – shame
