thers a problem with one of the abs sensors to find out which sensor it is it needs to be pluged in 
sometimes when the wheels barings are really worn they put the abs tc hill decent ( the 3 amigos ) so u could jack it up and have a feel at the barings see if thers play

Sometimes an overlay harness and sensor needs to be fitted to the vehicle, take it to your local land rover dealer.

I find a simple way to see if the abs sensor is faulty trace the wiring back connect an ohm meter between the 2 pins and try and spin the wheel at a constant speed, if one is miles out then....
As above check the wheel bearings first.
Thinking about it can u buy seperate sensors for these D2's?
