    2002 Discovery 2 Roof Damage question

    I'm happy that at least it's intact. It's not perfect but what is in life. I count my blessings that no one was hurt. My jeep's front diff went out last week so its been a bad past 3 months. At least I got my health ;)

    2002 Discovery 2 Roof Damage question

    Roof had to be made on the assembly line in the UK, it finally arrived earlier this week. It's welded on and painted but a ways to go yet. All the glass has to be re-installed, sensors, sunroofs, etc.

    2002 Discovery 2 Roof Damage question

    Update. There were 3 roof options for 2002. 2 were around $700, the third is $1700. My luck I have the $1700 one which took a lot of negotiation to have Geico approve (This is the one for GPS, ACE. Its determine by your VIN# and can only be ordered by a local dealer). They gave in and it's on...

    2002 Discovery 2 Roof Damage question

    The only options I'm missing are rear air and third row seating so all the sensors are present and error free. The Geico appraiser called me back and he's onboard with the new roof so Monday the order will be placed once its confirmed the roof has the spot for the GPS antenna else a 2003 roof...

    2002 Discovery 2 Roof Damage question

    It looks like the price between a new roof and used is minimal so he's going to order a new one on Monday. He's going to speak to Rover on Monday to confirm correct order as there are 2 roof options for 2002.

    2002 Discovery 2 Roof Damage question

    It looks like they are going to move everything from the old to the new roof. I'm going to give them a call and let them know about the ACE sensors and GPS antenna as I don't see that on the Geico breakdown. Thank you, greatly appreciated.

    2002 Discovery 2 Roof Damage question

    I unfortunately skidded on ice at low speed on a turn, did a 360 and hit a dogwood tree which crumpled my roof on the passenger side. Geico is willing to pay to have the entire roof replaced and wont total it. Its a shame as there is not 1 mechanical issue . Have any of you had a similar...

    tune up 2001 LR DISCO II

    There is a procedure outlined in the forum if you search where you can replace spark plug wires without removing the manifold but it's a real pain (started it, then changed my mind) , however you can't get the wiring neat and completely off the engine block without doing it the long way. I took...

    SRS Air-bags Warning Light

    You need a special code reader to reset it and its an expensive one. I believe this is the one -> http://www.dap-inc.com/hawkeye/index.shtml

    MAF and SES light

    I almost forgot, please ensure your airfilter and airbox is clean. Also remove all dust from the plastic tube that connects to the MAF or you'll be back in this same situation. Have a safe trip. - Rob

    MAF and SES light

    Mike is always right, his experience is unequaled. Here is a link to the Bosch unit I purchased over a year ago and cleared all codes -> http://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/2002/land_rover/discovery/air_intake/air_mass_meter.html $125

    Simple 3 amigo fix. Always try this first

    I'm going to take Mike's advise and buy the Akebono brake pads. Should I stick with OEM Rotors and Calipers ?

    Simple 3 amigo fix. Always try this first

    I was looking at all the advice posted on the 3 amigos recently and came across responses from Disco Mike (the Disco Master), he provided a similar answer on one of his posts but I took at a bit further. I've had the 3 amigos on and off for the past 2 years. Disco Mike mentioned something about...

    Extremely general questions (Newbie here)

    This is not a suitable first vehicle as its costs can be high, it doesn't drive like a car and can be quite dangerous if driven as one. There is no shortage of parts however. This is good vehicle after your established financially and have driving experience, especially merging on the highway...

    Dealerships - How honest are they?

    Check out the dealership using www.bbb.org. My local LR dealership has been quite honest with me and has done good work. The service manager has been quite cool with me as he owns my old Discovery 1. I'm particular fond of my local Buick/GMC/Pontiac dealership which actually lets me bring my...

    SRS Light is on

    Since you have no seat belt sensors (yellow wires not present), the next step is the airbag. I would try clearing the code off one more time before embarking on this and see if it reappears. I had the same issue about a year ago. cleared the code and it never came back. If it does, you need to...

    Please give a week or so to extinguish. If not, the next item to check is the airbag.

    2000 Disco 2 smoking

    I'm running Castrol Edge Titanium 5W30 in my 2002 with no ill effects. Runs nice an cool with perfect idle. You must be running Castrol Edge Syntec, which should be fine. Before every oil change you should throw a can of BG44K in the gas tank.

    HELP! My radio needs a 5 diget code!!

    Were you successful? Also the 4 digits given by the dealer, as long as the radio wasn't swapped should match 4 of the 5 digits. That will confirm your looking at the correct bar code.

    2003 disco replacing tires

    The Bridgestone Revo2 is available in 255 70 R16 and its the Firestone Destinaton A/T taken to the next level (same parent company). Its incredible in the rain, snow and ice. Went offroad in 1.5 ft of loose snow, ripped through it like nothing. Also, looks a bit more aggressive. Got quote off...

    HELP! My radio needs a 5 diget code!!

    If you have the radio with navigation, open glove box, on the left side (closer to driver) there will be a bar code sticker. If the bar code sticker has the number 123456789 the nav/radio code is the last 5 digits, 56789. I have a 2002 SE but it should be the same process.
