Best to get on a tech forum. You're essentially wanting a DIY 12v battery bank. Not difficult to achieve at all if its independent of the vehicle.

Hi. The mileage of the vehicle isn't an issue in my opinion. Do you have any service history for the vehicle? The price seems fine if it's it good condition and well serviced. Certainly not too cheap. Get the vehicle checked by a professional. Make sure they have a good look for rust on the...

A bit limited on info here as I'm posting in behalf of my old man. Will know more at the weekend. Td5 D2 auto. When pulling away in any of the forward gears or reverse, the engine is revving high but not a lot of movement. After a few mins, all is well and drives as normal. It's like the...

Wish I could try before I buy. Its hard to diagnose what the issue is with the rough ride, maybe a bit of everything. Rear shocks are definitely gone... beyond that i'm not sure. Can feel every bump on all 4 corners. Might just try wishbones on one "axle" first and see how things go. Think I'll...

Can't see the pic but depending on your system, the aux battery will continue to draw from the main battery until voltage set on split charge is met (usually ~12.6v). So if your aux needs charging, your main battery will continue to charge the aux even with the engine off. Your main battery will...

I had the same issue with my D1. Ended up modifying a dog guard to make it strong enough. I had a pretty bad accident many years ago however the only injury I sustained was that from a beer bottle flying from the boot into the side of my head. Can only imagine what an axe or sledge hammer would...

In the next couple of months I'm going to replace my suspension. at 135k, the rear shocks are knocking badly and overall, the ride has exponentially deteriorated over the last 6 months. All bushes have been checked, a couple replaced etc. Looking into shocks, I'm liking the look of B6...

Yeh, bloody hell its sorted. Obviously..... OBVIOUSLY.... I just hadn't plugged one of the sensors in properly. Nanocom was still needed for calibration anyway plus we definitely need one out here in the Land of no Rover. I'd like to think there was more going on originally than simply a...

Our Nanocom arrived today but we don't seem to be having much luck resolving the issue. With the car sat on its arse, the sensor readings are 66 right 254 left (does not seem right)... We jacked the car up to roughly 480mm from hub to arch on both sides. Sensor readings 112 right 254 left). We...

Yeh not doing the lift. Not while out here at least. Maybe if we were in the UK but its impossible to get parts here. Postage from UK is 30 quid.... 1 bolt wrong and we're grounded... Just crossing our fingers with the shocks. Blue box expected unfortunately but there are not THAT may horror...

You say that but some of us are already in Europe and not coming back until after April Fools day (thats all it is right, just a huge April fools joke?) https://www.gov.uk/guidance/prepare-to-drive-in-the-eu-after-brexit It's an absolute joke. I doubt I'll do anything before the 29th and...

Yup cheers guys. Ordered as per part numbers given by fery. Can't get Bilstein unfortunately as limited to suppliers that can do everything in one package (in croatia). OEM standard shocks it is. Can't believe what a mind field it is. Was contemplating a 2 inch lift just to avoid the headaches.

Yeh it would have a big effect. If bad battery or contacts, the ECU can struggle for power if you start up before it has completed its system check and as a result throw up faults. XYZ switch is pretty easy to do but dont bother unless the lights come back. You have to drill out the rivets...

Could be a faulty MAP sensor.The latter reading IS the correct reading though. The instrument reading is calculated through an algorithm which takes into consideration AAP etc.

Front end of D2 TD5 is as good as sat on the bump stops. Time for some new springs and shocks. "This should be easy" I told myself... Holy ****... what the hell is going on? I've been bombarded with contradicting information, part numbers that mean nothing, colours that don't match part...

An approximate location Zadar, Croatia Diagnostic kit Nanocom unlocked for Discovery 2 TD5 Auto. You could always buy an unlock if desperate. Towing,Recovery,Trailer Tow hook and know good recovery guys. Tools Basic tools only Parts availability Parts are rare in Croatia. Can take delivery of...

Cheers. I saw these in the other thread. I think we'll get a couple. We're in the process of getting a Nanocom which as you say will pay for itself in no time and given we can't find one anywhere in Croatia, it might help others out in the future too. (Will be updating my info on the Landyzone...

Yeh fully appreciate what youre both saying. I personally am an advocate for air suspension too. Always repaired it on my previous discos and keep it going on my own D3. The D2 we are discussing is a friends and ergo its not my decision. They are here in croatia all year round and I have to...

We found a guy with "decent" diagnostics. He was able to ready most codes, live data get readings of the height sensors etc but was struggling to delete codes and he basically gave up. About an hour later, I jump in the car and the SLS light and lift light have gone... I thought maybe he cleared...

Great. Thanks for the info, at least we know what the issue is. Is there no way to clear them manually? shorting the terminal wires for example. It is a 2004 D2. Do you know if this is OBD2 compliant? Can any diag tool be used to reset the codes or does it have to be land rover compliant? Cheers.
