As you guys can tell I am not very knowledgeable in cars. But I am learning as fast as I can. super88, Yes, the throttle body has been a problem in the past, I have had the gaskets replaced already once. Upon inspection I can see red crud all over the seal and where the two hoses connect. The...

Update! Okay, so here is some more information now that I now what to look for and have another issue that may be related. 1) The sound only happens after the engine is warm. Everything sounds find until the gauge reaches the half way point (where it sits). 2) I have a collent leak. Or it...

I know this is the technical forum but I don't see anything in the for sale part of this forum. At this point I don't know enough or have the tools to deal with this sort of issue and don't want to waste any more $$ on this car. What would the best option be? Sale as whole? Part it out? It...

Howdy! My Disco is getting old and has developed a knocking sound. Only seems to happen after it warms up. I did some research on this issue and found that my Disco has a vin range in a oil pump defect. I recall having the oil light come on briefly while driving a few times. By briefly I mean...

Hello all. So I took my car in to my local shop (not the dealer) They found things wrong with the car, but nothing related to the clunk. I snooped around and found that the front drive shaft gives play, and I could make a clunk sound in what I think is called a transfer box (sorry, new to...

Hello all, I think I might be having a transmission problem, but I am not sure because I keep reading different things. Symptoms. 1) Can't maintain constant speed. Seems like it likes to down shift when it really should not. 2) When trying to maintain constant speed clunking sounds occur...

Howdy, My rover had its passenger side window smashed out (and then pillaged), I was wondering how hard it is to do the work of putting in a new window my self? -Zeek

YAY it is fixed! Turns out it was the exhaust flange. I took it to the rover shoppe, they fixed it up for me :) I really need to learn more about fixing my own car. Thanks guys for the help! -Zeek

:( Hmm, I hope it is not that, that looks expansive to fix! Is the car still drivable with that issue? The more I listen to it it sounds like clacking then ticking. I was next to a BIG MAC truck and it sounds alot like what I am hearing. roverMc, yes, I looked for stuff like that could not...

There is a metallic sound to it, but more like a plastic peace flapping and hitting something metal.

Its an 03 Disco with 58k mils on it. The sounds sounds like it cold be coming from under the engine, as I hear it best when I put my head under the car. I did just take my disco in to have the belt replaced because of a ticking sound that sounded like it was coming from the belt, and we did...

Hi again, I know I am the most retarded rover driver here, and often my post seem to cause an upset. But I again have another question. It rained hard in Houston the the other day, and I was out in my rover and took it through some high water. Maybe a little too fast. CES light came on with...

TY all! I replaced the battery and all is well now. I had the old one tested at Auto Zone and they said it was bad! No more green flashing lights on my dash! Thanks again! -Zeek

Hi Guys, Once again my rover has odd lights lighting up on it :p. So I wake up to go to work today and find that I have the S and M lights flashing at my face :( I used a code reader and found no codes. The manual said it means there is an electrical fault with the automatic gear box. I did...

Ok so how many quarts of oil does my 2003 Disco take? Also, I have added to my to do to have it changed every month now. (now that I work next to the place I trust to change the oil) -Zeek
