Hi,
Hoping someone can help with this one. I have an 03 Disco w/ 84k. No prior tran issues, warning lights etc. My wife was driving when she heard a 'pop' and immediately all foward moving gears where gone (D, 3,2,1) Dif. lock produce the same and it is as if it is in neutral when drive is selected. But, in both L & H reverse works fine. I dropped the pan to verify linkage and valve is operational and all looks well. No external fluid leakage is present and when drained fluid looked a little on the light brown side. All things seem to suggest internal tran failure of some sort but what? Are there any other checks before dropping the tran and either rebuilding or replacing? Also, if any one has removed the tran before any help, pics, steps etc. is greatly appreciated. One other note is when you do put it in drive and rev the engine a bit you can hear fluid gurgling from under where the shifter is located.
Thanks in advance for the help, looks like a nice rover resource here.
Best,
Rob
