Hi all from Yorkshire by Stray on Tue Jan 31, 2012 2:13 pm
Hi everybody. Just putting on here to say hi. have just bought a 2.2 dti sport after my Discovery gearbox & clutch decided to eat themselves.

After a week of driving the frontera have to admit im impressed. only thing to sort out is the obligatory air bag light being on intermitantly, so a tech2 is being ordered.

Having had enduro tyres fitted is ok for road - have yet to try offroad, wont take me long to get it dirty. bring on the snow!

Anybody any views on the reprogramming the controller (brain - ecu thingy) to up the Torque and Nags under the bonnet! reading the info also gives up to 10% better fuel efficiency. so any thoughts be appreciated.

Hi and welcome :wave:

You wont need a tech2 to sort the airbag light bud. Look under the front seats there will be a yellow connector, clean the contacts and re connect. Should solve it. If that fails you could always solder the wires together.

Thanks for the tip with cleaning connector block under seat. Will give that a try.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
