    2000 Disco II catalytic converter - left side

    Sorry, I didn't see your vehicle profile.... I would check the EPA's website and see what you can find out. You should qualify since your a 2000

    2000 Disco II catalytic converter - left side

    What year is your disco? I believe the EPA mandates a 10 year warrenty on ALL emisions equipment on vehicles. Not to sure about it, but it might be something to consider looking into. A stealer would have to replace the cats if defective.

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

    I'm not an expert but I would make a minimum 91 oct. a regular thing. If it is carbon, it will come back after you blow it out if you keep running 87. By running the recomended fuel it will only improve things and keep it running better and longer and more than likely less headaches even...

    2000 Disco in lockdown mode

    Same thing happened to me twice now. Mine is an '04 DII. Both times I got mine started but It still gives you the sunken gut I'm stranded feeling....:argh:

    I use a minimum of 91 Oct. LR's are know to be...well, ya know.....so I don't go looking for excuses for the LR to have a hissy fit.

    Engine oil leak

    I kinda thought it would reak havoc with the seals but I never overfilled and engine with oil before (I felt like a rookie all over again). When I change my oil I overfilled by about a quarter to a half quart at the most. I drained out the overfill the following day and got it back to the...

    Engine oil leak

    What leaks or what damage could occur if the oil is overfilled? When I mention overfill I mean by nothing more than half a quart.

    Power steering/ACE Fluid

    Well, I called the dealership so I'm off to them to get the PS/ACE fluid. It's 11 bucks....probably for a pint of fluid. I'm learning really fast that LR's are a love hate relationship...Geezzzzz

    Oil Leak

    It'snot the fill tube. I read jaak's post yesterday and checked my tube and it's good. The oil seems to be only on that cover below the filter/front of the engine.

    Oil Leak

    I change my oil on saturday and now I have a pretty good oil leak somewhere on the front of the engine. I did not over fill the oil and the drain plug and filter are dry and tight. I can't see that I did anything wrong. It never leaked any fluid until I did the oil change. I'm at a loss...

    Power steering/ACE Fluid

    I need to add steering/ACE fluid and the owners manual recommends Texaco Cold Climate PSF 14315. I can't find that brand of fluid so is there another compatable brand/type that I can use?

    I'm over in Lebanon (about 20 minutes east of Harrisburg) and we have a hunting camp down in West Virginia. I used to work with a girl from Butler. Nothing really related to your post, I'm just babbaling..... :)

    Synthetic oil

    Cool. I didn't think there would be any issues but understanding that an LR is a tempermental piece of machinery I wasn't sure. Thanks!

    Synthetic oil

    My '04 disco II is due for an oil change and I want to run Mobil 1 synthetic and I'm not sure if it's too late to switch from castrol 10-30 oil to synthetic. (It's got 52K on the dial). I change oil myself on all my vehicles and run Mobil 1 in all but I made the switch at around 20K for all of...

    Considering Purchasing a Discovery - need Help

    I bought an '04 Disco II back in Sept. '06 and I love the truck. It's the S model with hardly any bells and whisltes (The more bells and whistles the more there is to fix). I bought the truck after it came back from a lease and checked the carfax and all service records and I left the...

    Discovery Problems :(

    I can actually push about 300 out of a tank in my Disco but that is about the maximum. I try not to let her run below an 1/8 of a tank because you then run a chance of sucking dirt from the tank into the fuel system thus clogging up your fuel filter or worse yet getting a clogged injecter(s).

    Discovery Problems :(

    I also have an '04 Disco S (51K) and have the same exact things you have. 1.) Exhaust vibration might be loose cat guts or a heat shield. Start the truck, let it idle, chock the wheels and apply the ebrake (a rolling truck with you under it would F-up your day) and crawl uner the truck...

    Suspension Creeking Over Bumps

    I thought I saw this somewhere else on RWO but I can't find the blasted thread. I have a '04 D2 w/51K and I'm getting a creeking noise in the front and back suspension when I hit bumps in the road, especially speed bumps in parking lots. Just driving on regular roads with light road bumps and...

    Running lights?

    Bad bulb, bad ground, corroded terminal, loose wire....take yer pick. The only way to diagnos the problem is to pull the lens and check er' out. Sorry for the short answer but there are alot of reasons for non working lights.

    Rough idle/stumble

    My 04 Disco does the same thing. Seems to have a little stumble or miss between 35 and 45 MPH when held at a steady speed. Get it below 35 or above 45 and it runs great. It doesn't run that bad between 35 and 45 but you can feel it hesitating. 04 Disco II w/50K

    scratch in black plastic molding around wheel well

    Well, if you worried about the scratch because of the wife, I quess your excused. Your man card will not be revoked. LOL I bought my Disco II used and with a few scratches on her already. The scratches were a standard with that model. I can put more scratches on her and my wife will never...

    scratch in black plastic molding around wheel well

    If you took it off road, why are you stressing over a 3 inch scratch? If your worried about scratches that small you should keep her on the road. Trail riding is not ding or scratch proof..... I'm just making an observation and mean no disrespect.
