    Buying a Land Rover

    They all have the same 4.6 Liter engine, its just trip and apparence, an SE7 is a 7 passenger Disco, unless your going to haul lots of people I would just get a SE, nicely equipped.

    Shes on the verge of stalling..

    hey disco, could you possibly take pics to show me where the valve is? How do I go about removing it?

    Won't start, need help quick.

    When my disco wont start, it is usually the wiring being dirty, I take out the wires that lead to the distributor, blow on them, clean em out with my shirt, connect everything back, and she starts without a problem. Id also check the wiring on the ignition coil, that gets dirty easily as well..

    Shes on the verge of stalling..

    Ive experienced this problem last year, in traffic conditions, its happening again in traffic/ on red light (sometimes) just rolling not applying gas, or when stopped and holding the brake, the rpms drop extremely low (200- 100 rpm), the engine begins to rumble and shake. The cure to this is to...

    Transmission issue?

    On occasion, the shifter feels really heavy to use, while on some days it runs as light as a feather.. What could be the cause for this? Im also wondering... She's up to 88600 miles now, she gets serviced about every 8k miles, fresh oil, filters, etc. Should I possibly run a fuel injector...

    Fuel Mileage Survey: Discovery

    LoL, Disco I see you run two forums too. Like I posted on the other forums, I forgot to add that I want to keep it strictly to the 3.9L/ 4.0L engine, since they are basically the same.. -Joey, neither do I, im just doing this for the sake of science. ( Science seminar class..)

    ACE/PS Reservoir - bubbling?

    Wow. I misunderstood you. I never experianced that sort of problem, is this something that you just noticed? Is it harder to steer? Especially while parking/ low speeds? When I do take my Disco for a ride ill make sure to look if the same thing occurs. For all you know this may be normal.

    ACE/PS Reservoir - bubbling?

    Coolant warnings for a discovery.. *falls off chair laughing* The car wont give you a hint until you start overheating. I do a coolant check every 1/2 a year just in case I run low. My car had overheating issues in the past which is why im so meticulous about it now. ( Radiator/ and pump, and...

    Fuel Mileage Survey: Discovery

    Hey guys, im conducting a scientific experiment for a major project on how many miles does a person get on 87 octane/ 89/ 91/93/94. On a full gas tank from Full to Reserve light, how many miles do you get on what type of fuel.

    Fuel Grades

    Well, many members of this board "spoil" their Discovery with 91 octane, I used to do it myself, but since prices have gone up I now use 89. But then again this is on a 3.9 Disco 1.. 4.6L is quite a hefty engine, you might want to save your self a few bucks now, but in the long run it might end...

    Shifter tape access

    Would I have to go through the hell he did to change one of the bulbs, in my LR you can only see the symbols lit up on the passenger side and not drivers.. Its a pain at night, cant see what gear im in..

    Strange noise...

    My thoughts exactly, my D1 had a cracked manifold on the left side, and made an annoying ticking noise, u can really hear it when your're going down a narrow street with cars parked on both sides..

    Looking at buying a 1995 discovery couple of ?'s

    Horrible Exaust Note

    Hey guys, over a period of time my disco developed an extreamely weird exaust note, and what feels like less power/ torque during excelleration. Its hard to describe the noise it makes. Its kinda like whistling and like an old choppy exaust of a car from the 40s.. Im trying to figure out if its...
