Default Disco 2 ready for action

Well new to Land Rover and just bought a 2004 TD5 Discovery 2. This baby has been garaged in Sydney and has only 26 K's on the Clock so practically brand new. It is currently very stock but and going to get stuck into it starting with a +2 lift to fit bigger muddy's and Bull bar. Any recomendations will be helpful.

Cheers
Barnacle

Welcome. Might want to examine an Ultra Gauge, which can read codes, reset codes, and display live data, like coolant temp. The stock gauge is not very exact. The factory manual set is called the RAVE (Rover Automated Viewing Environment) and is a free download below. The front propshaft comes from the factory without grease fittings in critical areas, it can fail and will poke a hole in the tranny. Rebuild info (do it ahead of time) in our tech area, and it is such a problem that aftermarket suppliers have sprung up. Tech area covers things like best oil and fiter, and all manner of things you can do. Of course, being mostly in the US our site does not have a lot of things on the diesels, we are pretty much stuck with the 15 mpg V8s.

BTW, nasty time for your fire services. Hope everyone can keep safe.
