    Worth it or a risk?

    Ok I need both catalytic converters on my Series I Disco. I came across magnaflows for $57 each on an ebay store, are these decent cats? Will it trip codes? Keep in mind, I do have emissions testing here in Western NY, so will it pass inspection come July? Thanks in advance, Danton

    clunk sound on bump

    Hi Folks, My '96 Series I with about 122k on the clock has a clunking sound when I hit a bump, i.e. potholes etc, at slow speeds. Is this a sign that the tie-rod ends are going? This is noticed on the right front and it appears to come from the lower end of the truck.

    ZF Transmission question

    Is the ZF Transmission driver adaptable? What I mean is do the shift points change depending how hard you are on the accelerator? I have a '96 Series I, and it sometimes shifts late from 3rd to 4th and sometimes 2nd to 3rd.

    What does this mean?

    I went to the equus website and popped in the code: P1138 and it came up with this: "AMFR Correction At Maximum Negative Value." In layman's terms, what does this mean?

    CEL on again!!!

    All right, this is starting to really drive me fits... My CEL comes on for a couple of days, and either will shut off or stay on... I will have code(s) sometime tomorrow.

    Brake calipers

    Howdy Guys and Gals, I just plunked down close to 560 bucks on replacing the front calipers on my Series I Disco. The truck has 116k on the clock. Is it normal for the caliper piston to seize? One of them on the right side did not move, and thus fried the pad down to the rivets in less then...
