yes
The engines are a totally different design but the crankshaft design of both can be traced back to 1958 at least. The 300tdi and the 200tdi will fit your gearbox except one bolt which you leave out, you will need to move one engine mount and make up the exhaust and wiring loom to suit. The 300tdi will not fit behind the grille of a 2A without a lot of custom plumbing for the radiator. The 300tdi block is longer than the 2.25l or 200tdi motors. Ideally, the 200tdi is the correct retrofit for a 2A.
on a 200tdi and 300tdi there is a little square pot at the back left hand side of the engine bay. The pot is see through. on the side of it there are 2 lines, a minimum and a maximum line. Using DOT 4 brake fluid to top up but do not exceed the maximum line.
yes
Either a 300tdi which is a 2.5 litre turbo diesel intercooled engine or a 4.2 litre petrol engine.
300s are a little more refined, a little more HP, slightly more tuneable. Later 300s have electronictrickery, most don't. Both are very reliable strong engines and can be DIY maintained with ease. Also have the same MPG too. I have a 200 and love it for its simplicity, it is on 136k miles and still going strong. The key is to service them regularly, but that's the same for any engine!
With lots of spanners and a crane. Best if you take a disc cutter to the front slam panel otherwise it gets in the way :-)
there is no difference between a landrover 200 tdi and a discovery tdi ! A 200tdi is a discovery tdi . I think you mean what is the difference between a 200 tdi and a 300 tdi,in which case not a lot ,apart from slightly different engine and box ,rear lights and bumper and head lights and grille. basically the same motor apart from these few things
No. They are bombarded with reliablity issues, from electric, to engine failure etc. try to avoid older discos.
Yes, there is a diagram of the engine in a Discovery 2 TD5. It can be found in its maintenance manual.
i have replaced the plugs and wires and my service engine light comes again in 2004 land rover discovery
First you need to know what engine you have in the Discovery. Petrol or diesel and then the capacity? First you need to know what engine you have in the Discovery. Petrol or diesel and then the capacity?
