go over to the disco three forum and find disco mikey from strathearn engineering he will tell you no problem,
also there is a dedicated range rover forum, again find the link from disco3.co.uk.
i am sure there will be a way of reseting everything without diagnostics. on a disco three/ four you disconnect the battery and short the leads together, pretty sure the rangerover will have something similar

Michael,

I'm in Edinburgh and use White's Land Rover Specialists on Washington Lane. Have been using them for about 6 years now for our Disco 3 and Disco 2. It's run by Andy White and his team of ex-Pentland guys.

He knows his stuff like nobody I've met and is genuinely decent and honest, will never rip you off. He charges about £50/hour but will only charge you for 1/2 hour if that's all it takes, and if it's a minor job like diagnostics usually won't charge labour.

I've had all my repairs/service/MOT done there. Hugely recommended.

only other problem is the day after I took it for a 10 minute spin with no brakes the next day there was a puddle of brake fluid so im not sure if I can top up the fluid or if its just going to pour straight out. I might end up taking it to a main dealer for a look but I really wanted to avoid this if possible.

Why are you prepared to drive a vehicle with NO brakes?

If ou know which wheel is leaking g clamp it off and fill and bleed the others and drive it to be fixed only , or get someone with a straight tow bar to take you
