    Is it a truck, though?

    Not a truck My idea is that a land rover regardless of the model is not a truck. It is nothing less that the grandfather of all "suv's". Also it is not a jeep. Former owner of a 71 land rover now own 1999 lrd2 and very happy with it and take offense when someone call it anything but a land...

    Traction control incline and one other light keep coming on

    My 2 cents, I read awhile ago in the forums here, that the wiring needs to be grounded at the fie wall. I have the same problem with my 99D2 with 148,000 miles and have not taken the time to check it and or correct it. Just my thoughts. Mike S. in S. IL

    '98 Disco won't start

    98 dr2 wont start You might want to consider checking the Crank Shaft sensor, had starting problem with my 99 DR2 and this sensor was replaced and start like new. I paid about $69.00 for the sensor. Insure you install it like the old one otherwise your DR2 wont start. Just my thoughts Mike

    Lrd2 staring problem update

    Had my LRD2 towed into for service to my local shop. The tech found the starting problem appears to be a bad Crank shaft sensor. From what he said the fuel pump relies on this sensor. Should have my LRD2 back home on Friday.
