    Front Driveshaft Removal Help Greatly Appreciated

    Found that out the hard way Yeah I found out about the 9/16ths wrench the hard way. But I ended up replacing the whole driveshaft and most of my problems seem to be solved. I still get some vibration around 80 mph or a little above but not at 75mph any more. Seems to be speed related and not...

    Flashing (blinking) Odometer

    Battery Connections What can I use to take up space between the battery post and the metal clamp that you tighten with a wrench. There seems to be some extra space there since I switched to the new battery. But also the odometer started flashing after the alternator died and hasn't...

    Flashing (blinking) Odometer

    2001 Disco II SE with 90k A few days ago I had the charging system tested and was told I needed a new alternator and the battery is almost done for too. Upon stubbornly driving it again the next day the alternator went on me while driving. After getting it towed home it sat for about two...

    Battery Light On and Off

    Bad idea this morning So I had it tested last night and the guy at the store said I needed a new alternator. It was still running fine so my dumb ass decides to drive it to work today and of course the alternator died on the way. So now I have to change it on the side of the road 30 miles...

    Don't know what to do, weird putt putting kinda sound and vibration

    To 99D2 When I'm cruising at 35 and floor it, it seems to respond a little better but you can still feel the vibrations. I take the highway to work everyday so I get off the ramp at like 35 or so and then floor it sometimes and it vibrates the whole vehicle. Once I let off the gas and if the...

    Don't know what to do, weird putt putting kinda sound and vibration

    Yeah I'm gonna stick to the good stuff cause apparently it makes a difference after awhile. Does anyone know if theres a dvd or manual for repairs and maintenance like a haynes manual or something for the 01 Disco's?

    Don't know what to do, weird putt putting kinda sound and vibration

    This started occurring before I changed the plugs and plug wires. It just felt like a problem that would have been cured with new wires and plugs since it had 83k on it and I don't know if the previous owner changed them. I'm not sure what kind of wires they are but I know they aren't...

    Don't know what to do, weird putt putting kinda sound and vibration

    Please some advice would be great. I have an 01 Discovery SE with 83k on it. Recently it started making this vibration whenever I'm pressing on the gas. Kinda like if you go a really long time without changing your plugs and wires and its misfiring or something. I just got new plugs and...
