Does a Disco II need wading plugs? |

A wading plug is found on a manual transmission... hence, US DIIs won't have 'em, being all automatic-transmissioned..... -L |

they are also found on the axles in some markets but we have breathers attached to ours so we don't need them there either. |

No, DII's have axle breather tubes also. For wading however, they should be lengthened, especially the rear axle breather. |

Land Rover has a TIB (technical information bulletin) out to lengthen the rear axle breather tube due to what they call "water ingress". This would be free if your DII is still under warranty. I believe I saw this mentioned once before but the TIB number is 51/01/02/NAS for vehicles up to VIN number 2A755880. Vehicles after this number left the factory that way. P.S: notice I lost the all caps this time |

This breather runs up to about 3/4 of the way up the tail lamp on the left hand side which should be good enough for anything less that a drowning. |
