Will, it is a difficult decision and if things don't work out selling it I will surely keep it. However, in PA, I am forced to keep liability insurance on every car. And, I cannot keep cheap liablity on one car and expensive liablity on another -- all cars must have the same. So, it is...

1997 Land Rover Discovery SE for sale Original owner, factory maintained throughout its wonderful life of 226K miles. Vehicle is in good condition and fully operational. It has been inspected and insured throughout. This vehicle has the Trail Package which includes: ? Running Boards...

I have a 97 D1 A/T with 200K+ miles. Recently it seems that when the vehicle attempts an upshift (I think mostly from 1 to 2 or 2 to 3) on occasion I hear a quick whining sound -- almost sounds like a rev-limiter type sound. I am assuming it is from the transmission but it is hard to localize...

It is a 97 D1 with no distributor -- electronic ignition (coils). so where would I find the sending unit?

Real quick question...where is the location of the temperature sending unit on D1s?

Which bolts did you tighten -- the 6 or 8 hex bolts on top of the plenum cover?

97 D1, 208K+ miles... OK, so where do I begin...I guess the best way is to let everyone know that coolant-related issues have been dogging me for, well, probably the last 50-60K miles. Radiators, Manifold gaskets, head gaskets, sensors, clutch fans, electric fans, heater cores, you name...

Wouldn't I also see residue on the exhaust/cats if it was dripping from the heater core in/out lines? The funny thing is that I believe I have had the intake manifold gasket replaced not too long ago. Perhaps it does need to be tightened down after the head gasket job was recently performed...

I have a 97 D1 with 200K+ miles. Recently I developed an intermittent coolant leak. For the past 60K miles, the car has been dogged with coolant related issues. Just about all parts of the coolant system have been replaced/repaired. I took it to the dealer for evaluation figuring that I had...

I did the short-term fix by cleaning the contacts, pinching the metal spades (contacts) closer, etc. The plastic on the black-wire lead (on both connectors) is melted and therefore does not provide adequate support for the spade. I have been unable to locate a new 9003 socket. A junk-yard...

Keith, Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, Idon't have an O'Reilly's where I live. I saw a similar part at a Pep Boys, but it had very small wires as you mentioned. BTW, what is shrink-tubing?

My headlamp connectors (both) seemed to be corroded and melting. Does anyone know where I can get thes connectors as a replacement. I spoke to the dealer. LR does not carry this part. They want you to change out the entire wiring harness for what should be a 20-30 min job. Any advice also...

New battery works. As for re-syncing it, I really did not make any conscious effort. I think I pushed each of the buttons one or two times and then it started working. I couldn't tell if the pusing these buttons did anything because I may have been out of range initially. 8+ years on a...

Got it. Thanks BTW, my battery is original equipment. Over 8 years old. Will I need to "reset" anything or just pop-in a new battery?

Chris, Thanks for the info. I'll scrounge up a new battery and give it a whirl. I could not find your post, however. Is it in the archives?

I have a 97 D1 with many miles (200K+). I recently noticed that when I unlock my doors using the remote, the exterior lights no longer illuminate for a brief period of time. The interior lights, do however, come on. After the doors are unlocked, if I press the unlock button again, the...

OEM gauge I believe.

OK. So I replaced the broken condenser fan and now I have an even more insidious problem. The temp. gauge seems flaky. With A/C and driving on the highway, the temp goes up. Turn off the A/C and the temp comes down immediately. Turn on the fan (blower) with no A/C and temp goes up. Turn...

Everyone, thanks for the inputs. PTshram, I do not believe (or want to believe) it is the radiator. The problem only occurs in hot weather with the A/C on. If I had a radiator problem, it would show signs more frequently with the A/C off. I tested the radiator's cooling ability the other...

Is it possible to fix the fan (new brushes, etc.) or does fixing it mean replacing it. I assume that the airflow should be front to back of vehicle so that the airflow does not interfere with forced air against the radiator when driving.
