1999 Land Rover Discovery Series 2 TD5 Auto

Hi welcome main problems are the abs valves causing the 3 dash lights (search 3 amigos online) a really badly sited compressor can cause air suspension models to fail giving the bags a slow leak the V8 is a solid engine but can have radiator expansion tank and cap failures
the other issue is electrics windows and door looms are problematic

Its not a tractor and i wouldnt tow with a automatic anyway as i think its dangerous as no engine braking but? now without a drive i honestly couldnt give you a concrete answer but i do suspect a worn pinion on one of the diffs or maybe something worn in the transfer box which is more than money than this vehicle is worth no doubt so put some STP additive in the diff and transfer box ,use the one for the engine oil as this will help or pump some LM grease into each unit ,or buy a new vehicle which is no doubt cheaper as if this is a big petrol engine then its a worthless old vehicle a diesel will hold its price though even more so in europe

ANDY,

I wouldnt recomend it for 2 reasons,
first,changing from gas to diesel or diesel to gas is a very difficult because of ecm,s and wireing harnesses.
second, the land rover has one of the best tow drive packages there is, hard to improve on,
If you need more power and economy perhaps an upgrade to a larger tow vehicle

So how did it run before the new engine? Has anyone checked fuel pressure? filter? cat converter? I cant believe a dealer cant help you????

Do not reuse the old head bolts. These are torque-to-yeild type bolts and stretch when torqued down.

Starting in the center and working your way outward:

1st step - 15 ft-lbs

2nd step - 90 degrees

3rd step - 90 degrees

Could be MAFS out of range - check & replace if needed.

Or maybe the EGR valve is stuck open, sometimes you can clean them out but most of the time a new one is required.

Both common on the TD5

In the engine fuse box under the bonnet ,relay is the closest one to the front of the vehicle ,about £7 to replkace

Might be a blown head gasket. take it for a compression test.
