Disco 2 Fluid everywhere
Ignore Mike - he needs a hug. As was said, your MAF sensor seems to have lost it. This is the mass air-flow sensor that is connected to your intake system. It amounts to a large piece of hard plastic tubing that has a plug connected to it that is in the path of the air intake hose leading to...- penguinpwrd

I has a new toy :P
Very nice - greetings from Chicago. :) That sticker is one of many I purchased the last time I was there. I still have a small stack of them, just in case. There has been one in that spot on every Rover I've ever had - I figure this one is no different.- penguinpwrd

Fuel Pump Issues?
I'll let someone else speak to the pressure question, but that sounds quite low to me. This is the exact set of symptoms I had on my D1 before the pump died. The fuel pumps on a Discovery are pretty sensitive to misuse. My g/f killed mine by consistently leaving it running when she would put...- penguinpwrd

You guys are killing me. And as I said we're leaning LR3, but Mike - you keep making these points on the diffs, trannies, etc. Do you have a resource somewhere that goes into detail on these issues and their rates of occurrence? As far as what it's going to be used for, as I said, it will be...- penguinpwrd

Thanks for the input. Have you taken the LR3 on the trail? The cost is definitely a consideration - only because I have seen it spiral out of control in the past. It seems to always work out that you spend $2k on mods and like 4 days later something totally unrelated will need attention. I...- penguinpwrd

Disco Vs. LR3
Wow. I see this place has really degraded into what most car forums have become - which is basically a ******* contest. I didn't come here and say "here - pick which car I buy." I came and asked four or five very specific questions about other people's experiences - which are by their nature...- penguinpwrd

I never asked "which was better" and I'm not real fond of the tone being used here - as though I'm an ignorant inconvenience. I posted several very direct questions relating to the experiences of forum members on specific topics - and have received some constructive responses. I'm quite...- penguinpwrd

Disco Vs. LR3
Hey guys - thanks for the feedback. What will I be using it for? Well, it's a 'Rover...so I'll use it for what it's meant for. I'm sorta in the middle of a deep emotional conundrum with this purchase for a number of reasons. They both appeal to me for one reason or another. I love the...- penguinpwrd

Disco Vs. LR3
Hello, all. It's been a long time since I've posted here, but my lease is ending and I have the Solihull itch again. Wanted to get some feedback from you guys on a couple things that might help my make my decision a bit easier. I'm torn between two potential vehicle options: - An '04...- penguinpwrd

Air suspension options?
Interesting. Out of curiousity, does anyone know anything about the suspension on this rig? This is my ideal height; I assume it's a body lift, now that you've all chimed in about the air suspension, but I still have to ask. If anyone can provide some insight, I'd appreciate it.- penguinpwrd

Air suspension options?
Hey guys...thanks for the responses. I had an '04 D2, and to be honest, I'd go back to a D1 if I had to. I really like the LR3, but the idea that my fate in the middle of the styx is down to a couple of airbags, I'm sorta scared. :) It surprises me that there isn't more of a demand for...- penguinpwrd
