    Solo trails/Green Lanes?

    Worcs and Shropshire have plenty and aren't that far away. Go a little further and you've got Wales, Leics, Northants etc. GLASS are fairly on top of the updates so Trailwise is usually up to date whether a lane is shut or not. Shropshire's decent for easy non-damaging lanes with plenty of...

    Radio,Clock issues

    Are the interior lights working? I had this on my last D2 and it was fuse F20 on the interior fuseboard.

    Green lanes in Hampshire

    It's well known for being out of date these days, it's missing UCRs and it just shows where the byways are and not if they're closed or have any restrictions on them. As noted, just because it's a byway doesn't mean it's legally driveable. If you want accurate either join the Green Lane...

    Disco 2 advice please

    He's talking rubbish - a TD5 that's been looked after will go forever. Besides that replacing an engine is way more effort than replacing the oil cooler or even just the gasket, and you'd have no guarantee that a random replacement engine from eBay didn't have its own issues.

    Coolant flow direction

    On an EU3 TD5 (and basically any EU2 TD5 that's had the radiator replaced) that connection on the radiator is blanked internally, so it's not going to do anything. As Fery said, just blank it at the oil cooler and the expansion tank (or fit an EU2 tank).

    Disco 2 Egr blank, broke coolant hose?

    Yeah it'll be fine to just blank the output.

    Disco 2 Egr blank, broke coolant hose?

    The coolant flow into the EGR cooler comes from the back of the oil cooler, and it just goes from the oil cooler into the EGR cooler into the expansion tank. On the 15p/16p TD5 it only exists to feed the EGR cooler so it doesn't matter when the EGR is blanked. As it's blanked off to the...

    Disco 2 2" lift Disco Td5

    If the rear springs are that new then just get 2" lift blocks and +2" shocks on the rear, and +2" springs and shocks on the front. Turrets probably don't need replacing, but new spring isolators (rubber rings) might be worthwhile as mentioned.

    Disco 2 TD5 Crankshaft pulley - seal to change or not to change?

    I've done the job twice on different D2s and I've replaced it anyway rather than risk disturbing it and having to take the pulley off again to replace it. I pry it out carefully with a screwdriver, and use the old seal and a hammer to tap the new one in.

    Disco 2 Facelift

    The switchover to 15p was earlier than the facelift. Plenty of pre-facelift D2s came with 15p engines.

    Engine Mount - Discovery 2

    It doesn't necessarily mean a geniune part - LR themselves don't put the G at the end, although some sellers do. Companies like Britpart also put the G at the end of an aftermarket part to indicate the part is from the "OEM" supplier. The G at the end doesn't mean anything consistent and you...

    Disco 2 Power Steering Pump removal

    On a TD5 it's just remove the aux belt, remove the pulley from the pump, disconnect the pipes and remove the 4 bolts holding the PAS pump in.

    Disco 2 Small hoses replacement, clamps, and one missing?

    As far as I'm aware the 3 are the only pipes of that ID. The vacuum pipe the other side (between the alternator and the brake booster) is a different size. Not sure about the pipes for the EGR if it's still fitted.

    Disco 2 Small hoses replacement, clamps, and one missing?

    You're missing one of the small pipes from the wastegate modulator (the box) to the intake hose. There should be a plastic elbow in the hole on the intake and a pipe on it that goes to the top of the modulator. The plastic elbow can be bought on its own - DNG100280. The 3 pipes from the...

    Discovery 2 2004 TD5 Landmark rear hub nut torque

    You're missing the front page of the bulletin which states that the rear hub procedure is only for the Range Rover. That's why it states it's an increase over the WSM (the P38 WSM says 260Nm)...

    Blocking EGR without removing it

    That's exactly what I did when the bolts rounded on mine. Took a few minutes, no master technicians required.

    Wandering Disco

    Check the age/wear of the tyres. I replaced the old, worn AT tyres on the front of my 2000 D2 with new tyres today and it made a significant difference in how it drives on the road.
