    2004 Disco SE vs. Chevy Tahoe Z71

    Do you HAVE a Freelander and are getting rid of it for a Disco II? If so, let me know and i'll give you my low down. I have an '04 Disco II, loaded all the way (HSE7) so I can give you my two cents if you'd like. Cheers, Reagan

    Fuel Economy

    All. I'm just curious. Why does mileage matter so much? Do we own a Land Rover to save gas? Were they ever considered fuel effecient in the first place? And, lastly, why oh why does anyone who pays $52K for a vehicle even think about sweating a $2.30/gal. fuel charge? Of course, if everone's...

    Considering a used Disco

    These guys have some great deals going on right now. I think I saw an SE model with LOW miles, land rover certified for $26K. I just bought an '04 HSE7 for $33K with low miles and got 2.9% from Rover Capitol. Just a good deal all the way around. And since it was LR Certified, i'm covered bumper...

    6 Disc Changer wonky

    Rex_Dart - I am having the exact same issues as you have described in your post. Exactly. I am taking my vehicle to LR tomorrow and leaving for a week while I am out on business. I will make a post next Monday evening with my results. By the way, does your drivers seat ever squeek or groan a...

    6 Disc Changer wonky

    On the Cd's. Tried both a self burned (works perfectly in the single slot for DVD Nav) as well as store bought. So, I think self burned are a non issue. On the windows. It is like BMW, a quick jab at the button and it rolls down automatically. But only the driver window. Why? Why? One auto...

    6 Disc Changer wonky

    I have a 2004 Disco. The CD changer no worky. Meaning that when I press CD on the radio panel, to go to CDC, it comes up with nothing. CD's load in, I can hear them, and yes, they are in correctly. I checked the cabling under the pass. seat and all is good. I am getting ready to take it to LR...

    Going to Sell XD Disco

    First off, ya'll don't be freakin' out on me about this. I am, of course, replacing my much loved 96 XD with an '04 HSE7, Zambezi Silver. Of course! Here's the deal, I am trying to see if there is enough interest on this site to list teh XD here. It is a 96 XD (yellow, oh yeah) with 63.6K...

    Radio Codes

    So I use XM Radio, and love it. But I play it through the cassette on my 96 D1. Well, the darn thing keeps beeping telling me to 'Clean Head' (that just sounds wrong). How do I reset the stupid thing so I don't have to listen to it anymore???? Cheers, Reagan

    Brake Light

    O.K. Moose. You got me. I will gladly make a dontation to this site. It has been a tremendous help to me as a Landy Newbie. Great advice from all. A true money saver. But WHERE do I go to donate?

    Brake Light

    It worked! Topped off the fluid (it was hardly even low), not even below the low mark and have not seen the light illuminate again since. Thanks all. Cheers!

    Brake Light

    Weird one here. I have a '96 Disco. Know that little red "Brake" light that goes on when your Emergency Brake is engaged? Well, mine tends to flicker on and off. When completely dis-engaged. Especially if I am braking and come to a stop. Then, once rolling again, it goes off. Really weird. Is...

    what is the best leather cleaner/protector?

    The absolute best cleaner and conditioner is availbe through Griot's Garage. It makes your leather smell, look and feel factory new. I assure you, this is by far the best conditioner available on the market. Much better than Lexol and far better than Connolly's Hide Food. Considered by many to...

    Thinking of Purchasing 04 Disco

    Wait for the new LR3's to come out. When they do, they (LR American and Dealer's) will offer a "pull ahead" for current lease owners to get in to the new model. These pull ahead Disco's will be low mileage and most likely well under the $30K mark for an HSE model. Have the dealer throw in an...

    Flickering Lights

    I'll check and clean those tomorrow. I tried the foot on the gas thing but I started to smell this really funky metallicy smell. Is that bad?

    Flickering Lights

    Greetings All. I have a 1996 Disco 1, XD model. I have noticed that at idle, all lights flicker, even the little clock light. Once I step on the gas, no more flicker. It is very noticable but has always done it so I never really messed with it. Even the headlights flicker. EVERYTHING on the...

    Most Important tools?

    A good pair of running shoes and an idiot friend to fill them. Oh yeah, while he/she is running for help, don't forget that iced down sixer you had hidden under the drivers seat. Where your tools are supposed to go! : )

    Blown D1???

    Serg - I never complained about my mileage. Please make note of that. Heck, I live in San Antonio where one can buy some of the cheapest gas in the country. Besides, it's only gas. Right? If anyone tries to purchase a LR by justifying its amazing fuel economy then they are nuts. These are fuel...

    Blown D1???

    Thanks all for the comments. I have been much impressed by what I have seen from the Lund Engine fellas. Even if they are died in the wool Brits. Ha, ha. Seriously, thats an amazing series rover throwing some dirt and sand in 'yer eye. I'm going to drop those blokes a line and see what they...

    Need opinions/answers...

    O.K. Sergei. No way are you getting that kind of mileage without pushing it yourself half the time. It's just not possible. Even if it does take you 5 minutes to accelerate to highway speeds and you drive it like an old lady. How do you exceed manufacturers specifications by at least 30%? My...

    Blown D1???

    I know, I know. I just want a little more kick and the V8 sounds so sweet right now I can only imagine how much sweeter you could make it. Besides, I wouldn't spend good money on either a Toureg or Cayenne. They're crap. If i'm spending that cash, it's gonna be on a new LR3. The article in...

    Blown D1???

    O.K. guys. Let's see what we can get going with this thread. I am seriously contemplating some sort of horsepower upgrade here and I don't care what it costs. What I want to do is do it right. So, I was thinking about adding a supercharger to my XD (1996 XD, 57K Miles). I think the compression...
