    AC switching and wiring

    Been fighting some AC issues with a 2002 US D2 v8 without rear air. Anyway, first I discovered a small oring leak at the compressor, fixed that and system ran perfect for say a month. Then it started getting grumpy through the hot part of the summer. It would start sort of randomly and run...

    D2 front hubs

    There are a bunch of cheap ($100ish) options for new in box front hubs for D2's on Ebay right now with ABS sensors. I am buying one just because I would like to find out if it is for real or they are junk or don't even fit. Anyone installed on yet and have any time on one?

    DII Center Silencer front connection

    Just put a new Bosal intermediate silencer on due to the old one not passing inspection. Not a bad job except this is a 2002 and has 160k Vermont miles.

    Front end clunk can't find it.

    2002 Disco 2 no adjustable height. I have a clunk that mainly only shows up when I diagonal through even a shallow ditch or traverse a change in angle of the surface meaning angling of the front axle laterally. I cannot find anything loose up front. If I stand next to the car and grab my Thule...

    Bank 1 sensor 1, then 1171&1174

    2002 D2. I just changed bank 1 sensor 1 O2 sensor. That code did not resurface. I also changed plugs during this cycle of maintenance. Getting to that O2 sensor and getting enough force on it to break it out was tough but I did get it with a big 22 mm box end and a 4 pound mallet after two days...
