Thought it might be, best get a new engine then! Thanks

Hi, I’ve a Disco Td5 that is showing the following issues: Runs well for 20 minutes, temp comes up to half way on the gauge and stays there. Drives well on or off road during this time. Then it slowly creeps up to the red and immediately drops to nothing with the red light on, along with low...

Tried jumping the earth wires including straight from terminal posts to battery, starter motor casing to battery, etc - used about 3 different pairs of jump leads and the engine bay looked like an accident in a spaghetti factory. Made no difference whatsoever, starter motor is now just buzz and...

And we have a winner. Wife came home so got the small ****ting stick out, couple of knocks whilst she held the key over and off it went. Are the starter motors/solenoids a serviceable item?

Already been replaced. Car started with both old and new ones when I had the ignition apart to replace it. That particular merry go round went like this: No start, suspect ignition switch. Remove old ignition switch, strip switch and find contacts look a bit ropey. Order new switch. Few days...

Been having a start issue with my 06 L322 TD6 - started fine until recently, then one day refused to start - no warning lights/error messages, just no cranking or any other noises. Tried a few things, starting in P/N to check if gear shift lockout worked (shows correct gear on dash) took...

Cost - bit hard to say as it was bundled in with other work. Probably made up a couple of hundred quid of the total bill.

ABS sensor was shot and the ride height needed calibrating apparently, all sorted now.

Dropped it off this morning at the local Land Rover specialist (it was booked in for a new rear prop already), so I asked him to look at the other issues. So far it's looking like an ABS issue causing this but he can't get his diagnostics machine to talk to the ABS or Air Suspension. No fuse...

Right, new battery fitted. Definitely starts better, but no change for the HDC fault or warning lights on the dash. Next stop, an INPA cable and laptop.

Just been out to it, battery fully charged (12.9v on the multimeter) but the fault is still present. I'll recheck the voltage tomorrow (mainly to see how much it'll have dropped) but ultimately I'll almost certainly be ordering a battery (a pair actually as I need one for another car too), so...

Just been out with the multimeter. 11.8v across the battery terminals with the car having not been started for two days, which isn't brilliant. Alternator is putting 14.2v in when running. Got a Noco battery charger/conditioner on it now, see if that helps. Putting some feelers out for a cheap...

The car has had a noticeable nose-down attitude for some time. I've not bothered with it until now because it rode fine and rose/dropped as it should. With the HDC/suspension fault both front and rear have settled an inch or so lower and the ride is much more harsh at the front (but not bouncing...

I'll have a look after work tomorrow - I need to dig out the multimeter and the battery charger anyway. Unfortunately my code reader is programmed only for BMWs & Minis and can't see the HDC/suspension faults (it'll see a couple of things on the L322 if set to E53 X5 mode but nothing important)...

Thanks folks. Before I lash out on a new battery, if I get the old battery on charge and make sure its well topped up will that have any chance of removing the faults (just to prove the issue really is the battery)?

My 2006 L322 TD6 is having a sulk. A few days ago I started it from cold and was immediately rewarded with the 'HDC Fault' & 'Suspension Lowered' messages on the dash. I've owned the car for nearly six months and during that time apart from a knocking between 15-25mph from the prop bearing (UJ...

Ok fella, I go to work in Exeter sometimes by car so it wouldn't be a major detour to drop by. Cheers Will do, thanks. Ah, didn't realise that. I'm beginning to think finding a secondhand Nanocom would be a good idea....

Hi folks, back into Green Oval ownership again with a 1999 Disco TD5. I bought it because of the reasonably solid chassis, but it does have the following faults that need rectification due to a short MoT: 3 Amigos on intermittently SRS lamp lit If I can I'll try to acquire a Nanocom or Hawkeye...
