Engine turns over but doesn't start
I have just bought a 1996 Discovery SE; 4.0 gem engine, automatic transmission. I bought it from a women that was tired of mechanics charging her and not fixing the vehicle. It transported soccer kids around its entire life and shows no off road use at all. Long story short: The previous... -

Over HEATING issues
Clutch fan should spin like it has a friction brake on it. If you spin it the fan should stop rotating instantly as soon as you release it if it is in good working order. -

2001 LR Discovery 2 LE Check engine light and codes
P0300,P0302, P0304,P0306,P0308, P0174 all lean codes. The smell of sulfur means your cats are way too hot due to the lean mixture. I had a lot of these codes Disco Mike had me start with a comprehensive compression check on all cylinders. Due to the codes on cylinders 2, 4, 6, 8 start on the... -

Brakes disconnected???
have someone help you pull the tire off and have your helper pump while you watch see if you can see where the fluid is coming from. -

Brakes disconnected???
Easy way to check the leak is first (brake fluid) and not axle grease, is to (if you are by yourself) dry the inside of the wheel hub and caliper cylinder along with the brake lines. Get a new clean dry paper towel place them inside the wheel area under where the dampness was occurring most... -

Squeaking noise when driving.... help please
Again I would go with process of elimination. The hubs are farther in but in the same location. Check the brakes first, couldn't hurt to install a new set if they are warn down even half way. (cheap fix on the weekend) Be sure to buy good brakes and apply the latex noise preventative on the... -

Brakes disconnected???
Brake Dissconnected see attached I had a cut sheet on the brake system but the file was too big so you can see the cut sheet on line or go to one of the recommended sites that some of the full access members have suggested. -

Brakes disconnected???
After you check the brakes by pumping them as suggested in the previous post, fill the master cylinder with fluid and pump the brakes again. Do you get some of full brakes? Are they soft? Does the pedal fall to the floor after you get some pedal? -
M
Brakes disconnected???
With the engine running, do you have any pedal when you pump the brakes 4 or 5 times? Do the brakes go to the floor or pump up to full or half pedal and slowly go the the floor? Do you have any pedal when you pump the brakes with the emergency brake on? -

Brake Fluid leak location.
Take the tubing apart and check the ends of the factory flared fitting. You may need to remove the master cylinder to inspect the inside of the threaded female side of the master cylinder. Its not typical for a steel brake line to leak unless disturbed or over tightened. Did you work on the rig... -

Squeaking noise when driving.... help please
If the squeaking stops when you apply the brakes, it might be your breaks. Many brakes have a piece of metal that rubs on the disc when the pads get too warn. Start where the noise is eliminated. If the squeaking stops when the breaks are applied look at the brake pads. If you bought cheap pads... -

compressed air storage tank location
Thanks I don't know what I was thinking (Drr). Trail service for myself and others was exactly what I was looking for. If I remove the storage bin cover and install a hold down for the cylinder I can R and R the bottle when I need a new charge seeing as the opening is 7" it would fit nicely. I... -

Car stays on when key is removed?
car stays on when key is removed Sounds like your ignition switch is cross connecting (going out) I had the same problem with another vehicle. How many keys and cute little fobs do you have hanging on the key ring. Some times the weight of a heavy set of keys wears out the ignition switch. I... -

Cables for subwoofer?
Is it a Discovery 2? Is it an SD or SE? My SD doesn't have sub woofers but they are typically in the back door if you have them. It is a modular unit that comes with everything. Knowing LR it most likely will have the wiring harness located in the rear door panel for one harness fits all... -

03 Disco se7. No spark, no fuel
just a thought did you reset the inertia switch I may have tripped. Its worth a lift of the hood. On the firewall passengers side there is a small item next to the blower pump. On top it has a rubber button. Push it see if it helps. just a thought. -

random missfire
Mike, thanks for your help last week. After the process of elimination I have cleared the codes on my 2002 Discovery. After changing the #1 spark plug wire and #1 plug, I still had the same codes. P0300 and P0301. After talking to you, I ordered 2 new coil packs and went to work shoving my... -

Need help with 4" LIFT
4" Lift I am running 265/ 70/16 on my D2. It sits real nice and the proportions look good. I don't rub and I don't have a lift on the D2. Remember if you go with too tall of a tire, you will start looking like a boot on wheels because of the short wheel base. Be careful with the height of...
