    '03 Disco oil pump issue

    Upon start up after changing the front cover, with a fresh fill of Valvoline 5w-30 high mileage, the engine sounds great. This truck did sit for a while last year and this year, only got cranked up and moved short distances as I have a work truck to drive daily. I'm really frustrated with this...

    '03 Disco oil pump issue

    Would any of these issues be RPM dependent? The light comes on at idle, but with just a little bit of throttle, it goes off. That makes me think it's not the pressure sensor itself.

    '03 Disco oil pump issue

    I used Valvoline 5w30 high mileage with a K&N HP-3001 oil filter. I'm leaning towards installing a mechanical oil gauge.

    '03 Disco oil pump issue

    Before you say anything else, yes, I know that '03's are prone to this issue. Now, on to my issue. I was receiving a low oil pressure indicator on my dash, so I ordered an entire replacement front cover from Will Tillery. Before installing the replacement, I opened the service panel for the oil...

    Disco II 4.6l front cover wanted

    I've already got a front cover gasket. I just need the cover itself. I appreciate all you guys help. Drillbit, I'm interested in the cover you have. I'll get in touch with you Friday about payment and shipping arrangements.

    Disco II 4.6l front cover wanted

    Any idea of the condition of the oil pump gears? I've put a gear set in my existing cover about 3 years ago, and it's losing pressure again, so I don't want to take a chance on the existing cover, and $600 is currently not feasible for a new unit.

    Disco II 4.6l front cover wanted

    I am in need of an engine front cover for a 2003 Discovery II with the 4.6l motor. The front cover is the only part I need.

    So what brush guards do you like for an '04 DII?

    http://rustysoffroad.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=rustys&Product_Code=3432120&Category_Code=bum_arb This is where I got mine from. I'm close to them just across the GA state line, so I picked mine up, but I paid local sales tax for doing that, which IIRC is about 8%. Shipping...

    Movies with Land Rovers

    Which is funny, cuz in the story that the movies are based on it's very specific about him driving a Willy's Jeep.

    Discovery 2 300 tdi engine swap.

    One thing I noticed that nobody else seems to have picked up on is the fact that the D2 with the 300Tdi swap done in the UK was done on a commercial model vehicle. Hence, that vehicle never had all the electronic wizardry that has been discussed being bypassed. I bet if you called York Land...

    Chattanooga Area, Disco tech needed.

    I'm not positive on this, but I'm pretty sure the testbook and all the other gear that goes along with it are upwards of $10000.

    Is this true?

    I live in NW GA right now, and we don't have emissions. Even when I lived in the ATL area, I never had to pass emissions, but I didn't drive the Rover then either.

    FS: '03-'04 DII A-Bar

    That is a great price. I sold my used one last month for $230 shipped. This will look great on somebody's truck.

    Can't buy Wipers! What the......

    Carquest. That's where I get my BLADES, not refills. They fit right on with no trouble at all. Cost me about $25 for the pair, and they work great.

    '00 D2 Front end conversion to '03

    I would assume that's paying them to do the work. It should be fairly simple to do the work yourself if your at all mechanical. I talked to a guy at Rusty's Off Road a couple of weeks ago that just picked up an earlier DII and was thinking about doing the same thing.

    04 wiring

    In my '03 SE, which I would imagine is exactly like the '04, my front fog switch is on top, then my rear, then my gas door. I would imagine that since you have an S, they just bumped the rear switch up one because you don't have the front fogs. If you had the front fogs, they would be on top as...

    What is the purpose of this?

    I ripped mine out of my '03 when I was doing my coolant flush. You can't even get to the block plugs with it in.

    Oil Pump Failure On A 4.6 Again !

    I replaced just the oil pump gears in my front cover back in August. Put about 5k miles on it since then. I don't have an oil pressure gauge, but my oil pressure warning light has not come on since I replaced my pressure sending unit. When I found my broken gears, they were broken but hadn't...

    DII ARB, T-Max, Hellas

    I already offered him $800 for the package and he counteroffered with $1300. He's also got it posted on craigslist somewhere.

    DII ARB, T-Max, Hellas

    Pics look good, let me know what you wanna do for price. As it stands, I can get a brand new bumper for $900, I've already got Hella's, and I can get a great deal on a brand new winch too, so you let me know what you think is fair and we'll go from there.
