L-R Discovery starter.

[KemppiFrog]

Mate just asked me if I could help change the starter motor on his Disco, any tricks needed here? I have never looked at one.

Never done a discovery one but have done defender and its a 10min job as you can almost climb in engine bay to do it! I think the discovery is the same as the parts are interchangeable

Which engine? 200tdi? 300tdi? v8? TD5?

Engine down-pipe can be in the way, depending on the engine.

Think it is TD5, old shape, poss from 1999.Guessing there.

'99 and TD5 would make it a Series 2.

See this thread on LR4x4.

Have some sockets and some extensions handy as I think one of the bolts or nuts is difficult to get to with a spanner.
