Cylinder head bolt's torque.

Engine with Suffix B, Cylinder head will have 10 bolt's.
Ft.lbs (N.m)
Step 1 - 15 ( 20 )
Step 2 - Additional 90 deg.
Step 3 - Additional 90 deg.

Engine without Suffix B, Cylinder haed will have 14 bolt's.
Ft.lbs (N.m)
Outer Row 44 (60)
Center Row 66 (90)
Inner Row 66 (90)

According to my haynes manual for G-S reg, 1989-1998 it goes as follows,
Stage 1:- Tighten all bolts by hand until bolt heads just contact cyl. head.
Stage 2:-Tighten all bolts to 40Nm or 30lb ft.
Stage 3:-Angle tighten all bolts a further 60 degrees.
Stage 4:-Angle tighten all bolts again a further 60 degrees.
Stage 5:- M12 x 140mm bolts ONLY angle tighten a further 20 degrees.
Hope this helps everyone, sorry it seems longwinded but that is how it's written in the manual.

Here is a central locking diagram - but be warned - they are not all the same.as this. Depending on the model, Discos mostly have the control units as integral components of the front door actuators. The back door units are just slaves Remove the side panel under the foot-well so you can get at the wiring loom. also remove the front door trims to get at the actuators, then test the wires going through the doors with an ohmmeter to ensure continuity - it would not be the first time a broken wire caused all of the system to fail. In other words, do the simple things first

You need a noid light for that but since they are all not firing it's most likely the cam shaft position sensor. That tells the computer the cam shaft position so it knows when to pulse each injector. Let me know if that's it. The cam shaft sensor should be pretty cheap.

drive it on slippery surfaces to relieve the torque wing up and the n move from 4x4 back to 2 wd it will then unlock

have the vehicle put on a 2 post hoist that allows the suspension to drop right down then carefully check the rubber insulators on the lower arms for splits or indications that the rubber is tearing from the metal bushes

Sound like the Eurovox unit. Regardless, determine the make and model number of the radio/CD unit and do a GOOGLE search for that unit. I don't remember the site but there are several that will supply a wiring diagram for that model. You already know you can spend hours trying to find a fault like that one - a specialist installer (NOT a Land Rover dealer) will probably fix it for less than $50

very possible talk to a range rover dealer to get the information about a low oil sensor that has to be reset

I think your engine may have a cold start injector and timer. Check if this is so. Coolant temp sensor acts as a choke and will supply extra fuel when cold, but if you have fuel coming out of exhaust I suspect weak spark= check coil and module, plugs and wires

95 model is injected,so the easiest area to check first is the thermostat.This controls the engine heat and if stuck open or missing the ECU will get a cold reading and run the injectors rich.Also get the timing checked.Is it running on a running in oil or has it been changed now to the correct spec.
Also ensure that the sensors by and on the thermostat housing are connected and to the correct plug.Check to ensure that the sparkplugs are ok as rich running can choke them up and make hard starting.Check the air filter,if dirty it restricts the airflow.Also the airflow meter can get dirty,there is a suitable sensor cleaner that is available.dont be tempted to use any other solvent.I hope this helps,if not get back with some more info and will try to diagnose further.

check fluid level in radiator are you leaking fluid on ground does cooling fans come on if they dont check fuse for fans if fuse is good inspect wires going to fans are fan motors bad is water flowing thru engine anfter thermostat opens if notcould be bad water pump is there water on your oil dip stick if so blown head gasket dont keep driveing hot

Hi justin, sounds like you have a headgasket problem are you going through any water? If not you may have a leaking fuel injector or faullty fuel pressure regulator. you either have fuel or water leaking into a cylinder causing it to miss fire on first start up.

Try turn key left-right in the driver door.

It should be located inside the plastic cover of the shift handle.

This switch is located on the inside of the hood on the fire wall; just push it down. Anytime the vehicle is hit/over tilted/turnover, it kicks the Inertia switch off.

Make sure you have transmission in neutral, foot on brake, and apply pressure as you push lever into engage mode.

The code P1451 on a Land Rover is "Leakage Detection Module Motor power stage error Drive cycle A:Signal out of range - above maximum". This is an OBD-II diagnostic system code. As far as I know, a 1995 Land Rover Discovery does not use a OBD-II system. Is it possible that this rover is a later model year
