    Snap-On MODIS Scan tool

    Attempting to diagnose intermittent three amigos. I also got a used abs modulator assembly yesterday because one of the valve caps is leaking on top of the modulator. I need to be able to bleed the system with a scan tool. The snap on tool won't communicate with abs system. I've got the...

    04 D2 steel bumper

    I see many threads on bumpers. My daughter got her license in the spring. She's been driving the disco and had an accident, low speed, rear ended a new Dodge. Mostly just bumper damage to the vehicle. No injuries so we're grateful for that. The hood and fender alignment are off a bit but so...

    D2 wiper motor an Air Conditioning trouble

    On the 2004 D2 the wiper doesn't return to park. My assumption is it is in the motor and from what I've read it is a real bugger to access. Anybody have any experiences to share? The air conditioning is also not functioning. The compressor doesn't engage when AC is switched on, nor does it...

    Disco Compatability

    I've got the 2004 D2. it's a pretty clean and straight vehicle. I'm learning my way around it and all the nuances. I've come to realize this isn't really a car, it's a hobby. I wasn't shopping for a hobby but it seems I found one, or one found me. Replaced crank sensor in first week of...

    20004 D2 ABS pump leak and other issues

    On top of the ABS pump there are two round retainers (maybe?). Not sure if that's the right word. They are roughly the size of a quarter, each held in by a pair of allen head fasteners. In the center of the retainers is what appears to be a plastic insert. One of them is leaking brake fluid...

    D2 floorliners, who's got the knowledge?

    04 D2. Just curious who has decent rubber floor mats for the D2. I have weather techs in the tundra and husky liners in the trailblazer. I prefer the weather techs. Neither offer a custom fit liner for the rovers, only cut to fit. Can get the weather tech cut to fit front and rear for 50...

    What did I get myself into? Happy Thoughts

    So we got this thing couple weeks ago, 2004 D2. Replaced crank sensor within the first week. It's a clean and straight car, chassis is clean, not rotted as I see is an apparent issue from reading posts here. Hasn't been used for off-road driving. This morning my wife had the M and S lights...

    04 D2, 4.6l New owner Random questions

    Bought this vehicle couple weeks ago. So far the crank sensor failed, with a little guidance from here I got it going again. I hear a lot of scary stories about liners in these engines. This one has 105k on it. Looks like the front main seal leaks, , possibly the rear. I plan to degrease...
