Alignment for 275/55/20 AT tires
Posted this over at Landroverforums.com, but wondering if I might be able to get some input from folks here. Anybody familiar with alignment issues when upsizing AT tires?: A few months ago I put on some larger 275/55/20 General Grabber ATX tires. I immediately had the dealership complete an...- hevykevy420

Coolant consumption
Resurrecting this old post, to provide a resolution (hopefully). I had the disco5 in recently for some niggling issues. While the car was in the shop (over 2 weeks), in possession of the dealership, the low coolant light popped on (again). To the dealership's credit, they could have simply...- hevykevy420

Towing too much for 2018 Disco?
Just wanted to follow-up my post with an update regarding towing. I recently swapped out the OEM pirelli tires for some General Grabber ATx tires in 275/55/20. This size is oversized, but fits perfectly with no mods needed. They also have either a much stiffer sidewall, or additional plies...- hevykevy420

Towing too much for 2018 Disco?
I wish it wasn't so, and I could only dream of towing that far, and at those speeds, over that terrain! I would be thrilled to just average 60-65mph on the interstate. Maybe your rounded AS has a major advantage over the slab sided fiberglass trailers?! Another point of contention I have is...- hevykevy420

Coolant consumption
Had the low coolant light pop on at about 18k miles on the '20 D5 S/c. Checked coolant, none visible in overflow tank. Uh oh. Took it into the dealer to get this officially noted in service notes. The porter and service advisor stated..."could have just been bubbles in the coolant from the...- hevykevy420

Towing too much for 2018 Disco?
I honestly have no idea how LR advertises an 8200lb tow rating on the D5. I wish my towing experience was remotely close to Mr. Williams' experience. In my opinion towing anything near the stated tow limits on this vehicle is difficult to impossible. Here is my experience: Purchased a '20...- hevykevy420

Problem Getting the right parts number for brakes (2018 Discovery 5 HSE)
I've had luck just calling the dealership and getting the OE part numbers, if they aren't too busy. Or just try a website like rockauto, they generally have a lot of options and a convenient way of showing what are the economy, mid-line, and premium options. You can order stuff from them or...- hevykevy420
