Hello, Can anybody please advise if a D1 rack will fit a D2. It is currently on my 98 D1, but I have a line on an 01 D2 and am wondering if it will fit. I understand the length will be shorter, but all other things being equal I would like to keep it if possible. Thanks Jimmy

Hi, My D1 has been sat for 6 months without a battery. Previous to this the truck was sat and started 1st time with a new battery. I went to work on her the other day, put the battery back on and all I got on the key turn was a succession of clicking (electrical) in the passenger foot well...

Hello all, I have a 98 D1 LSE, she has been sitting for 9 months or so, as I was planning on working on her and straightening out a few issues. She ran well, no engine issues etc... I realise now, that letting her sit was not the best thing and that I should have worked on her while still...

Hi, Unfortunately I have had to have the Disco off the road for the last 12 months. I didn't do anything in preparation and now I have the time to take a look at her. Obviously the battery was dead, I tried to charge it but there was no chance. After a fresh battery, I had all the regular...

Hey Guys, I am at a bit of a loss! Recently while driving I suddenly felt a drop in the engine (like only 4 cylinders were left). I limped the car home and pulled the codes. The scanner indicated Cam Position Sensor. I changed the sensor and also dealt with the intake leak. Since going back...

Hey guys, I was travelling down the highway, took the lazy left turn (nothing crazy) at about 70mph, hit a small patch of uneven road and the wooble ensued. The front ent took on a life of it's own and it was a bit of a concern until I was able to correct the problem. This happened one more...

Hi all I am at my wits end with this POS step. Is there anything I should know about removal, because it isn't coming off. The nut is removed as well as the hydraulic arm, but the bolt just turns and turns. Any help greatly appreciated, Thanks James 98 D1 LSE

Hi I am currently having some brake issues and I am wondering if a complete flush and fill of the brake system may address some of them. The ABS seems to shudder occasionally, it is not a full engagement , but it does feel like a bit of slippage. I am also having a very annoying clicking...

Compared to some problems it doesn't register, but I would like to change my burnt out digital clock to what I believe is a RRC clock. It looks the same size and has the same mounting for the hazzard light switch. Can anyone advise whether it fits and who sells one. Cheers James 98 D1 LSE

Hey Just a quickie, how long should it take to warm the engine to operating temp? I have a 98 D1 LSE and in sub 5 degrees C, it only takes about 3 miles to warm to full operating temp. The needle has never moved, the system seems to be working well and hasn't overheated (on me at least). I...

Hey I am currently freaking out about all the possible things I may need to have done to my truck. I have just found a large amount of dry / sludge coolant at the rear of the valley pan (I guess) under the ignition plugs, not sure where it is coming from, but even after a 20 min drive I can...

Recently I have been having a little trouble with starting. Most times it is not a problem, then out of the blue it sounds like the battery is dead and it won't start, but then it does. Just when I think I'm going to have to deal with some kind of repair, the next start is strong and...

Can anyone give any advise on how to safely clean the engine and bay. Maybe I am a little over cautious, but I don't want to get moisture or any other crap in places it shouldn't be. I am new to the vehicle and figure I need to clean it up to have a fighting chance of locating leaks. Any...

Can anyone advise whether the storage bins I have seen on a DII (where the jumper seats are) are available for a DI. Cheers James 98 DI LSE

Hey all On my travels through the various Landy sites I came across a comment from East Coast Rovers, "On older Rover V8s you should NOT use the lower 4 head bolts. These will cause leaks in the head gasket and valley pan." In the forums here I have come across many posts talking about those...

Hey all I'm a new owner of a 98 D1 LSE. Every since I got it there has been a red residue / dust that seems to be more concentrated on the passenger side. I have been out of the engine bay for the past couple of weeks and when I returned I THINK the dust has increased. Can anyone offer any...

I have read countless threads on whether to change the trans fluids and filter or stay as is. There are many people that almost guarantee transmission failure if you change. My 98 D1 LSE looks to have been well maintained by the previous owner, but I have no such records. Would there be any...

Hi all, hope you all had a Merry Christmas and good luck for the new year!!! Well I recently saw a posting regarding rust issues in the C pilar dog leg. During my search for my D1, I did find many that had suffered rot in this area. Since locating mine, I have thought about the possibility...

Hey all, Just finished re-greasing the draive shafts and u-joints. Being new to this I was wondering if I should have some rotaional play in my front drive shaft. I can rotate approximately 1/4 inch by hand. Rear shaft if solid, no movement. Probably nothing, but would like to be sure...
