    Yes you can repair faulty D1 ABS sensors :)

    In case anyone is interested, I recently went through a nightmare with my 96 D1 ABS system. The brakes worked fine, but the ABS light came on 4 months ago and I couldn't get the problem fixed and the light extinguished. The original blink code was for the left rear sensor air gap. I fiddled...

    Anyone got an e-Workshop Manual for a 96 Disco ?

    I have a '96 Disco 4.0 L Auto and I'm now having problems with the ABS. The ABS light came on last week coming back from camping, but the brakes work fine.
