I had the same symptons you mentioned about 2 years ago and turned out to be a bad inertia switch, would keeping 'popping' causing the engine to shut down and would crank but no fuel since the inertia switch cuts off the fuel. Would either have to wait 5 minutes or pop the hood and push the...
Do the Hazard Lights come on when it happens ? If so could be the inertia switch. If it's the inertia swtich it's on the passenger side firewall, push down on the top of it, the black 'button' to reset it, I had to replace mine, pretty cheap fix though. I don't know if a bad CPS will cause...
Makes sense, thanks for the explanation, I will start jacking it up and putting it in neutral next time I lube. I do lube the sliding portion every time also, I normally just lube until the rubber seal feels firm, but sometimes a little grease does squeeze out from under the seal.
Lots of Driveshaft posts in Search but I didn't see one specifically on my question.
I had to replace the zerk in the U-Joint on my rear shaft, the original DII shaft, because even with a new coupler the grease would just go around the zerk and not in the zerk. I replaced w/ a 6mm and now the...
DiscounTire did the same to mine earlier this year. I ordered these off ebay and have no complaints, all one piece so no cover to worry about and they look good too. Discount gladly reimbursed me the $137 plus shipping for these after they called the dealer and heard the outrageous quote of...
I'm not sure if DI's have the same inertia switch as a DII, but my '00 DII did the same thing and it turned out be a bad inertia switch connection. It died about 4X while I was driving, once going 65 on I-65 going to Chicago, not a good feeling. The switch would keep tripping and kill the...
Has anyone used Auto-Rx in their Disco ? Seems like it would be good to use for someone who is thinking of switching to synthetic from conventional, especially for higher mileage engines. I don't think this would solve the leaks but may dissolve all the sludge buildup.

Welcome to Discoweb rauster, most people on here are very helpful, it's a great source of info for your Disco.
I installed running boards about 2 years ago, I have a 4 & 2 year old and the boards make it a lot easier for them to get in and out. I got them from DAP, Inc. but the installation...
I've been very happy with the Ferodo pads front and rear and the Allmakes brand (made in the UK) cross-drilled and slotted rotors from British Pacific, very good price too. http://www.britishpacific.com/BPSite/LandRoverDiscovery/disco_cat_pages/disco2-5.pdf
Here's a link to a fantastic write-up...
There's a good write-up in the tech section - http://www.discoweb.org/slstocoils/index.htm
I haven't switched to coils, but I did replace my original air springs about two years ago with the Arnott aftermarket springs, roverconnection.com has them for $230 for the pair with a lifetime warranty...
I didn't see your post before you completed the job, but there is a good writeup in the Tech section on the trans filter and fluid replacement.

They are also pre-wired for a heated windshield. I have the glass coverage thru State Farm and when I had to get a new windshield because of a crack it covered a heated one. I ordered the dash switch from roverconnection, $13 bought the relay from the dealer, $14 and my local indie Rover shop...
I got if fixed Monday, found a place I had heard of but never been to before in the Denver area, LindenEngineering, good parts resource for Disco I and II's + RR's. They also repair Pinzgauer, see attached pic.
