Land Rover Discovery D5 MY23.5 Owners Review
After almost 6 years of owning my first Discovery I recently replaced it will a new one as I liked my first D5 so much. I go through my impressions of the remarkable difference in driving for a car that looks the same.

    Rip Curl suits develop pinholes way too fast, literally within a month or two and some right out of the factory. Problem is they try to tape the seams over the fuzzy liner, and the glue doesn't bond well, the liner is too fuzzy/thick. Xcel will last 2 seasons or more and only then slowly develop pinholes but it is not nearly as stretchy. If it fits you well, it is stretchy enough. The xcel is also pretty thick for a 4/3 because they use thick jersey liners. I have had 5/3s that didn't feel as thick so it fits a weird niche.

    I recently had a very unpleasant episode with my Disco 5. The steering rack failed whilst cornering causing me to have an RTA. I claimed on my insurance for body and mechanical repair. 14 weeks in to repair and I am still awaiting return. Very long parts wait from LR (steering rack, suspension arms and subframe). Can anyone advise if I have a legitimate claim against LR as I have excess to pay on my insurance claim and the car is now devalued as it has been in an accident. I understand that this fault has been recognised with other LR models that have been recalled but not the Discovery 5.

    In light of the evolution of surfing the much loved Boneyard at Minnamurra and Shallows at Shellharbour were two highly over rated breaks that we always checked out in the 70's. Nonetheless it's great to see footage of them. Brings back many memories of trips down the coast.

    Thanks for your video. I recently got my 2018 Discovery HSE MY2019 and it arrived with continental cross contact 275/45 r21 lx sport tyres. At least two of the tyres need to be replaced very soon. I'm just wondering if it's worth changing the tyres to all terrain tyres if at some stage I want to take it on the sand? Your thoughts if you don't mind. Thanks

    • @leighwilson1524
      @leighwilson1524 2 года назад

      I currently have B. F. Goodrich KO2s Tyres on my car, great off road but a little noisy at 80 kph. Also poor grip on wet highways. This video was done on the original tyres and if you averaging a sandy day trip once a year I would stay with all seasons. As being new to the Discovery it will take a while to understand the Off road settings. In soft sand start with 15 psi, traction control off, high range and manual shift and experiment with 2500rpms in 2nd high in the soft flat sand and slowly increase and decrease your revs and see if you can feel the sweet spot or "float" spot that your Discovery is doing it without much drag. Some people get the "feel" faster than others. Sand driving is all about smoothness and the sweet spot creating the least drag.

      The BF 275/55/R20 fits the D5 without any changes to the car. No contact with car at all.The new BF Goodrich - Trail-Terrain T/A may be worth a look. As the KO2 ages it seems to be getting noisier and not that good in rain on highways.

      Hi Tom, the clips were intermediate except at 4.10 that was advanced with barrels. They now have an Advance turning which a mate of mind told me that was the best for experienced people. One problem was that low intermediate surfers were going into the advance and falling on take off coursing problems for the next surfer.

      Thanks Mr T. I personally would not buy a 4 because of the many cases I have read about on the " Land Rover Discovery % Group Australia" Facebook Group of engine issues . It would be worth doing some research online before buying a 4. The 6 is so economical anyway. You will not be disappointed with the way the D5 drives. It is comfortable and relaxing on a long trip.

      Hi Peter, thanks for watching. Depending which country the D5 is heading the 2022 standard features and options varied. In Australia I have notice a few differences now. 21" wheels are standard which are less off-roadable plus 20" tyres have greater choices. I think a 20" wheel is a no cost option. The rear locking diff is an option even on the off road option. A full size wheel is a no cost option. Enjoy the D5 when you get it. Let me know how you like it.

On bigger windier day the Quad was more in control but on small grovel day they still generate speed. If the Lost Puddle Jumper goes well as a Quad the H4s will fly. Let me know how you go.

    Nice, $10,000 is good, but a Garmin or Hema navigation system and it will work better anyway. Makes that a much more affordable car. I had D3 and loved the capacity of space, defender has too small an opening, and this lost the split tailgate and lost square storage capacity. Had mine full to the brim in the back with a great drawer system etc. Hoping the new models in the defender family become the d5 this should have been… I ultimately would love a cab chassis version even if they had to build a solid tray setup or something as part of their design. Then the ultimate camper can be made.
