    Engine Warning / Slipping Trans

    Hello, is there a dedicated transmission warning light in the dash or would any faults simply kick off the "service engine" light? I ask because I gave full gas from a standstill recently and I felt a half second lag along with what I would describe as underpowered slipping before the service...

    Re-attaching fender flare

    So in looking over a few posts more people are asking about taking them off! Hoping you all can help me put one back on... I read a post or two about two sided tape?? Doesn't sound very robust, but if that's how it goes, can anyone post a link to the product I need? And any advice on how to...

    D2 Fender Flares

    Hey sorry to hijack/restart this, but I'm in the same boat... How do you put a new flare on? Two sides tape?? I bought a used flare on eBay to replace a cracked one and really didn't think it all through before buying. I guessed I'd glue them on with something strong and thought this would be my...

    Mystery Horn

    So my wife was away the truck last weekend ('04) and was awaken by the HORN going off on its own. Not the alarm, but the horn in continuous, solid tone. She tried arming/disarming the alarm to no avail. She entered the truck, hit the horn and it stopped - but not in the way you'd expect, it...

    2008 Sport Supercharged Int Features?

    Thanks. I never understood the heated steering wheel... and I grew up in Montreal and am now upstate NY. Still, options sell I guess. Do they just bundle that one in with the "winter package?" (heated driver, pass, rear seats, windows and mirrors?) thanks again.

    2008 Sport Supercharged Int Features?

    I've seen photos of the steering wheel that has 6 buttons on it, others where it has only 5. Does anyone know what these do and what option is extra (or not included) between these two variants? pics attached, thanks.

    Bike Rack Suggestion for '04 Disco?

    Any recommendations? Looking for a simple, low-profile 2-bike rack. I bought the Thule T2 which is the new "style" of racks: it's hitch mounted, the bikes sit in cradles and it drops down to allow access to tailgate. Only problem, it does NEITHER with the '04 Disco's full size spare and...

    When do you change brakes?

    Well I changed the pads - and in fact the old ones didn't look TOO bad... But the rotors are for sure a bit worn. They buffed them up some but did not cut them down on the lathe which I know some people do. So if you put new pads on worn rotors, what good is that? I read that if you scrape...
