    Strange gear noise on decelleration

    Check the differential oil levels in both front and back. Take the screw on cap off and stick your finger in. Should pull it out full of gear oil. If not get some 90 weight gear oil and about a foot of rubber tubing to use to fill up each differential until it starts to drip out of the fill...

    HELP -- Need Assistance

    It really is a silly safety feature. What if the place you are trying to leave is not so safe? You're stranded until you get a tow or change it yourself. If it's 3 am, that ain't to cool. A buzzer every time you step on the brakes to let you know the lights are out would have been a better...

    HELP -- Need Assistance

    I bought an extra one to keep in the glove compartment just in case. You have to be a bit of a contortionist to get at the switch. I could not turn my body to look at the switch at the same time I reached up to unplug and remove it. I just unplugged the old one and plugged in the new...

    Removing Bushings

    Is there any way to remove the panhard rod bushings without using an hydraulic press (which I don't have)? I replaced all of the front tie rod ends and was getting started on the bushings when I realized that you can't hammer these babies out. Thanks for the help.

    Shocks/ Wheels wobble

    Tie rod ends and bushings should arrive tomorrow. Today drove at highway speeds after rotating the tires and there was a big difference. No more Disco death wobble, but the tie rod ends and bushings need to be replaced anyway so I have my fun set up for the weekend. Anyone have a recommeded...

    Shocks/ Wheels wobble

    just rotated the tires front to back and checked the tie rod ends on the rod that is not the drag link and one is completely shot. I already replaced the ends on the drag link. I'll order new bushings and two more tie rod ends and I am going for new tires in a couple of weeks. Thanks...

    Shocks/ Wheels wobble

    Thanks: Bushings it is. What about tire balance? I read that that could cause uncontrolled vibration too. Yesterday, drove from Chicago to Cincinnati and back. (19mpg!!!!!). At any speed over 55, if I hit a big bump, the reverberation was cartoonish (the Disco Death Wobble)...

    Shocks/ Wheels wobble

    Tie rod ends Same steering issues. No noise but when I hit bumps at highway speed steering goes haywire. Already replaced shocks, steering damper and front springs. But I checked under the truck today and two of the tie rod ends were leaking grease and had a ton of play in them. The others...

    new to the rover thing

    Make sure you're not driving with the diff lock in low. The noise could be in the rear diff. Happened to me last year. After I bought it I drove it all over with the diff locked and didn't know it until I heard the whirring sound when I took my foot off the accelerator. Had to put in a new...

    Oil Presure

    As Joey instructed me, you have to drop the oil pan and clean out the tube and the wire strainer. Also while you're in there, scrape out all of the sludge too. Dirty job but you'll hear the difference immediately.

    Can't Move shifter out of park. HELP!!!

    Good idea. I am going to order one online and keep it in the glovebox. I am also seeing an increase in odd occurrences with my anti-theft system. Sometimes the remote (brand new from dealer) works, sometimes it doesn't. When it doesn't and I use my key, none of the lights that usually...

    Can't Move shifter out of park. HELP!!!

    97 Disco. Starts; alarm shuts off with button. Press on brake but shifter won't move. Is there an override or something I can disconnect to get this vehicle home? Thanks,

    SPider Board: Relays: What else could it be????

    New problem with my 97 Disco. On a more frequent basis, I find that there is no juice to anything (seemed to start when I began to notice the whine that went up and down with accelration - electrical interference). Anyway, When the light didn't go on when the driver's door was opened, I jiggled...

    Whistling while heat is on.

    I'm also getting the whistle or whine but for me I know it is electronic interference. Any time an electric motior is on (power windows, blower fan etc.) I hear the whine. If the blower is on low the whine increases in pitch as I accelerate I really doesn't bother me but with anything in the...

    Code P0420

    Hey Joey: Did that a few months ago following your directions with electrical parts cleaner to stop the MAF code from popping up and it worked. Do you think it needs it again? Thanks,

    Broken power window mechanism

    Happened to me on my passenger side. You have to replace the window regulator. Not too expensive at Speedy Car Parts.Com. About $135.
