    What Can I Expect From A Rover ?

    I have been told that most Discovery II's have pretty unreliable engines. A mechanic friend of mine theorized that the engine runs a little too hot, and recommends that you place an additive in your coolant called Red something. Also, just like with any car, you can get a lemon. What is the...

    O2 Sensor -> Only Running on 4 Cylinders

    My 1995 Range Rover Classic LWB 4.2 has been struggling recently. It has been running rough. I saw code 45, which is for the O2 sensors. So I replaced the sensors and then later that day the engine light came on. Code 44 this time. After messing around in the engine, I finally realized that...

    2004 Discovery 4.6 Engine

    The fuel pump is located in the tank, under the rear cargo floor. Begin by removing the six phillips screws in the plastic trim at the base of the rear door. Set the trim aside, and pull up the carpet and insulating pad. The corner trim may need to be pried upward to allow access to unseat the...

    Which code reader to buy?

    I bought this one for my father's disco and it works well. Does not do all the fancy stuff you are talking about. I am pretty sure it works on a LR3, but you would have to check: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000KID31K

    Range Rover Classic Door Lock Problem

    I just noticed my passenger door is having some locking issues. When I go to open the door, the lock goes down just a quarter of an inch and the door doesn't open! It is slightly easier to open from the inside, but sometimes I have to manually hold the door lock up to open the door. It is...

    OBDII Code Reader for Father's Disco

    I think I am going to get the 3130. Thanks for the information. My dad isn't really mechanical, but he has given me a lot over the years so I don't mind spending a little on him. This is the one I am getting: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000KID31K/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1291839784&sr=8-1

    Things to improve MPG?

    I checked the tires and run 91 octane, the wires look new (steam cleaned so I don't know how new). I have new plugs coming. How do you do an induction cleaning? You mean new air filter and clean MAF? I haven't replaced the filter, but I checked today again and got 12.9 mpg.

    RRC Hood Loose?

    They are missing. I guess I will try to order some online or custom make some. I also noticed the hood sits a little high where the hood attaches to the rover. Is there anyway to adjust how high the hood sits? It seems like I can only adjust how close or far away the hood is from the rover...

    Bouncy Tach

    How can I check either? I have cleaned the MAF and replaced the idle control valve. It is still bouncy. Where can I check if it is the alternator or the wire going to the alternator?

    Both Power Mirrors Out

    Both of my power mirrors are out on both sides! I don't have a manual so I dont know where to first check the fuses, but I am hoping the problem is not too expensive. Any idea what would cause both side mirrors to stop functioning in a 1995 Range Rover Classic?

    RRC Hood Loose?

    I think my hood bounces around more than it should on the highway. How to I adjust it so it is a little tighter? Also, it just has two bolts coming down from the hood, but no rubber or weatherstrip at all. Is this normal?

    Things to improve MPG?

    I know it is a 95 RRC, but the lwb model with the 4.2 I have heard to get significantly better gas mileage. I am now getting 12-13 mpg the 3 times I measured. Yes it is a new rover for me so I am not really taking it easy on the truck. Also, as I mentioned in another post, the idle is...

    Bouncy Tach

    So I found a 95 RRC, and I am noticing that the tachometer is a little bouncy and erratic at times. I cleaned the MAF, and that seemed to help the problem significantly. However, when the air conditioning is on, I still notice a little erratic behavior. Next I cleaned the idle control...

    Range Rover Classic Year and WHY?

    I am looking into buying a Range Rover Classic (let me know if you are selling ) I have read people like the 95 Range Rovers the best because of the "updated" interior. I looked at one and I wasn't sure I liked the interior better. I would like the dual air control, but that is about it. Me...
