    Disco 2 - 1171/1174 Codes

On the passenger side of the upper air intake on non secondary air D2's, there is a metal nipple with a...

    Bottle of good local micro-brew mailed to you for the correct answer: motor tick?

    I chased a tick and tap for several weeks. Ended up being a cracked exhaust manifold that amplified the normal engine exhaust sounds.

    Bought a new door lock actuator & its not releasing from outside

    The three T25 torx screws that attach the lock assembly to the door is the issue. You have them too tight. Back them out one at a time, add some blue Loctite, reinstall. These things only go in enough to have the pan head of the screw meet the door frame. More than a few foot pounds of...

    DII keeps dying/won't start

    Had a similar issue a few years ago on my 99 d2. Turned out to be corrosion on the connectors on the underside of the fuse box located under the hood. Replacing the box fixed it (after the stealer threw a bunch of other parts at it). Best of luck

    wiring harness plugs

    HERE'S WHAT HAPPENED WITH MINE: Check each end of the connectors again. When I changed out my first set of O2s (from Atlantic British), part of the white inner pin alignment cap came off of the main harness with the old sensor cable. It made the new sensor cable look like it was not a...

    DII Steering inaccuracy, not wobbles, not shimmy

    What kind of tires? Lift if any? I have a 99 D2 with 2 in Rovertym Lift. My Nitto Terra Grapplers were pulling all over the place with braking or acceleration. Checked the entire front end with no issues found. Switched to BFG T/A KO's... no problems since. Morale of the story, it may...
