Love it! Tc only and tyres not great for application? You can't argue with that! I own a disco 2 landmark like this and love it! I would agree that deep mud like that at tge end is the disco 2 nemesis......but then show me a 4x4 that would not struggle with deep wet mud?
Hello. I'm interested to know what lights you have on your bullbar. I have a disco 2 with a xrox bar and looking to add lights. Interested to know what you have done, specifically the size of the lights. Thanks.
The bar offers good approach angles and lots of mount options for lights etc but not as great for an animal strike on the side, bonus however is that the side bits are replaceable if you damage them. No idea who built the rack.
I love the rig, but why can't it find traction. Doesn't this model have a rear locking diff. Can you install a front locking diff. It just seems all the power goes to the "free" wheel.
No locking diffs and “lazy front caliper”, so no traction control either. I supose you use the CDL, but sometimes it’s not enough. Really well driven!! Nice video
İ guess there’s a stall problem, thats why you are flooring the gas pedal. You have to be patient for the traction control to operate, you know that! Also a center diff would be nicer..
not really, we have discovery 1,2 and 3 in our family. 2 and 3 are stock but 3 goes off-road as well if not better than a modded mk1. Air suspension makes it great on road and when you lift it its higher than mk1 too (2 inch lift). If you don't drive one don't talk, I don't like the design of mk5 but if you need to choose I wouldn't hesitate to go for mk4, great car especially with 3.0 petrol engine
TVR161 I had the same problem with my disco its not the calipers at all inside the abs modual it has two pumps ran by one electric motor the return spring on the pumps snap and you won't get and pressure going two of the calipers no computer scanner will pick this fault up change the abs modual your traction control sucks compared to mine
ok, total new guy question here. I am not trying to be jerk and this is a legit question. Is that normal performance from a Discovery II? I have always heard they were pretty awesome off road. I am coming from a lifted 1986 Chevy Blazer with lockers front and back and a winch to boot. I am getting to old to beat my brains out rock crawling any more and looking for a softer ride. Any info would be appreciated.
@@TVR161 If you have CDL was it engaged, something is not right ? As has been suggested watch the power with TC, it requires more driver input without CDL. Suspension need to be soft on a DII not rock hard unless you are carrying a load of kit. And how did you find the BFG tyres, looked like they were struggling with Watagans mud ?

Well done that man. Someone who knows how to utilise the traction control.
DISCO 2004 IHAVE FOR 6YEARS , MOST BEATIFULL CAR EVER ,
That TD5 sounds excellent
Someone needs a diff lock!
EXcellent video, thanks for sharing it with us !
I would love to come and have a try on your trails !
Your rig would eat them up mate.
Fuck me mate you work that old disco hard and great to see somebody who knows how to use traction control to its full advantage!
These cars are insane.
Wow.. whem that was winching up them rocks. You standing there filming.. your a braver mam than i
un 10 para el conductor, fino con calma y viendo bien como trazar las maniobras.
Gracias
Love it!

what's up with your tc doesn't look to be working very well
Old disco TC is slow to respond but definitely working here otherwise as soon as he lifted a wheel, he'd be completely stuck.
Doesn't he use diff lock?
The first one looks like the tc was off ?🤔
Beautiful.

Enjoyable video- Who built your alloy roof rack? Very nice. Do you like you bullbar setup - any down sides to this style of bar?

No locking Diffs
None the less, awesome looking rig bud.
No locking diffs and “lazy front caliper”, so no traction control either.

Nice video
Skillful
TC snooozzzzinnn'

Ive got a 2003 disco and found the best way to maximise traction control is to let the wheels spin slowly, don't floor it like that
I find mine tends to stall a bit when TC kicks in at low revs, which is generally why I give it a bit more right foot than necessary.
Ahh got ya.. yours is a manual right? We are also from Vic (judging by your plates).
Yup 5 Speed Manual, 370,000km old....
How are the new discoveries compared to the old ones?
old ones are built like trucks new ones are for pussies

D2 BEASTMODE!!!
turbo sounds healthy as can be..
8:24 what he was thinking ??? Mud is the biggest enemy of discovery 2 ..
I take mine thru mud all the time. It's just fine
my disco 2 td5 no diff lock.year 2003 model.diff lock definately help..
Traction control seems to be struggling??
Front left caliper is a bit lazy.
Well you could have serviced it while it was in the air. Who needs a hoist with you around?

That is pretty great off-road... But what he really needs is some differential lockers

Yes Centre diff lock and Traction Control

did you have a lift?
2 inch Dobinsons lift
Traction control fail
Whats done to the td5 disco exhuast and motor?
Stock motor with 370,000km and factory exhaust with mufflers replaced with straight pipes.
so is the rear muffler straight through as well?
Yeah basically both mufflers were cut out and just replaced with pipe.
And how is it with Droning? At say 100kmph?
I only really notice drone when towing.
I won't buy a discovery without a center locking differential.
Or you could put one in..

Its easier with TC or locks
use the Blocked Diferential MAN !!!,,,,
Mast lagis
Damb not a series 2 that sucks hard
je le trouve un peu bourrin des fois. il conduit à l américaine comme s il avait un gros truck V8
It needs blockades
THEY AR WAY TO LOW IDON LIKAM
Damn, I cannot stand the rickety noise of that td5. Crappiest sounding Disco of them all.
Geez painfull to watch...
