It has finally come the time to sell the beloved DII. Here's some brief details: 2000 DII, Epsom Green, bahama beige interior, SD, 106k. I purchased in June of 2001 when the truck had just less than 19k on the odo. It now has 106k and has been religiously serviced. Oil changed every 3k...

I just purchased some seat covers off of the site (thanks Jamil!) and I understand they can be a bit tricky, particularly the rears. If anyone has the instructions that came with their seat covers, would you mind pdf'ing them and posting them here? I would like to have them as backup just in...

Hey all, in my quest to figure out why my mileage has decreased substantially I see that some folks have found that their coolant temp sensor has gone bad and basically tells the ECU that the engine is colder than it really is, thus running rich. I have a 2000 DII and am wondering where the...

I have a 2000 DII with just a hair of 93k on the clock. I have been pretty religious regarding maintence, however in the past year my gas mileage has taken a dive despite regular and preventive maintence being performed. I have not added anything to the truck to make it heavier, my winch &...

I have a 2000 DII with 92k on the odo. My truck has the secondary air injection which, up until a few thousand miles ago, worked as it should (running on cold start up and then running again after operating for 10-15 minutes). Now it only runs on startup. Also, my gas mileage has decreased...

I have a 2000 DII and have just ordered the kit from AB to replace the hoses and oil seperator and have searched and read threads about how the seperator comes out in pieces. One thing I can't quite seem to discern from the previous posts is if the 'tube' that is referred to around the...

Anyone else receive a small box with a piece of dark chocolate from Land Rover today advertising the new LR2? Kinda corny advertising but incredible chocolate... Though I would have rather received a diesel-soaked piece of bread advertising the release of a TDI Defender in the US:(

I have a 00 II disco with 85k on the odo. The service engine light came on, right after I left the dealership to have the T box resealed. So I took it back there in case they didn't hook up the O2 sensors correctly or something like that and they are telling me the MAF is bad. Now I just...

It seems that the R/T prices have gone up considerably within the past year. Tirerack has them in 265/75/16 for $139/tire. The BFG T/A KO is just slightly more expensive. Has something changed with this tire to make it more expensive? I remember it used to be under $100/tire. Has the load...

I have around 79k on my 2000 DII and I think it might be a good idea to go ahead and replace the coolant hoses. Is this an easy job, as it seems to be? Clearly it will be a bit messy, but aside from that, any tricks to it or am I simply pulling hose off and putting new ones on? Any other...

All, I have used the search function and cannot find the answer to my question. I just got some Hella FF1000s and I have a 2000DII that did not come with factory fog lights. However, the wiring for the factory fogs IS present both at the bumper and behind the dash blanks. Can I simply just...

All, I have recently started experiencing vibrations that have me a bit worried as I can't tell if it is driveline or tire related. The symptoms include vibrations beginning at 30mph up to 50 or so, then smooth up to 60mph, then vibes again up to 75mph. They are severe enough to vibrate the...

Just wondering what brand/type of grease everyone uses to lube up their U-joints, driveshafts, etc. Thanks Chris

All, I noticed a strange noise this morning and after getting under the truck I found that one of the ends (excuse the lack of correct terminology) of one of the u-joints is beginning to disintegrate at the end closest to the transfer case. I have heard about driveshafts exploding and taking...

I have this weird problem when I fill up my DII. If my gas light is on (the problem does not occur if I fill up prior to the tank being almost empty) and I fill all the way up, I start my truck up and the gauge goes to full. After driving 30 seconds, the gauge dies (drops all the way to...

Folks, I was driving home from work today on the interstate here in Atlanta and I the all-to-familiar Service Engine Soon light came on. I took it to AutoZone and had the codes read. The two that showed up were: 1. P0305 --Cylinder 5 misfire 2. P1319 --Manufacturer ignition control...
