    What is this wire/connector for (passenger door)?

    Hi, I have a 2004 Disco II that had a minor accident a while back. The body shop replaced the door but ever since, there is a buzz/rattle coming from the door panel. I finally got around to pulling the panel and securing it properly to stop the minor annoyance. However, while the door was...

    Aftermarket stereo install (w/ pics)

    I finally got around to replacing the tape unit in my '04 Disco II (who still has tapes?). Anyhow, I saw a lot of posts looking for information, so here's the brief, slightly illustrated guide on how to do this - retaining factory amps and wiring. I have an SE model with the Alpine tape...

    Unknown driveline sound - Disco II

    Hi, I have a new set of sounds emanating from under my 2004 Disco II that concern me. The first one is a light clunk (i.e. if the stereo is on, you won't hear it) that is noticeable when you are in top gear but only doing about 40 mph, and you let off on the gas. A minor similar clunk can be...

    One 16" alloy or steel wheel from Rover P38 or Disco II

    Hi - I gave up trying to find a mud tire 29" tall for my new (used) 16" rims. So now I'm looking for a spare 16" rim (any style) that you might have kicking around. Thanks, Rich Vancouver, BC

    225/75s on DII/Rover P38 16" wheels?

    Hi all, Sorry for yet another tire question, but I upgraded my '97 DI to an '04 DII, and now have the 18" Hurricanes with beautiful, new all-season, 55-series performance tires (that would be synonymous with crappy off-roading IMHO). I was lucky enough to find a guy who sold me his 16" alloys...

    Crossbars for '04 Disco?

    Ok, so after a search of this forum, I think I have the answer, but just want to clarify. I just bought an '04 Disco II; upgraded from my '97 Disco I. I had two types of crossbars for my '97; a pair of the "clip in" style from the original 3 that came with the vehicle, and a pair of the...

    Hi - just in case there is a Vancouver area off-roader looking for a Disco I, here is my listing. I've owned this 97 Disco for 9 of it's 10 years - I am thinking of upgrading to a newer model Disco II, and thought there might be someone on this board that is interested in my 97. As you can see...

    Gas gauge intermittent problem

    Hi folks, I recently had my fuel pump replaced on the 97 Disco I, and since then I have had a couple of occasions where the fuel gauge dropped to empty (with reserve light coming on) despite a full tank of gas. I have searched previous posts that indicate it might be a electrical contact issue...

    327 V8 for DI?

    My dad's old Chev has a very low mileage 327 V8 that I was thinking of salvaging... any thoughts on whether it would make a good engine swap for a Disco I? My engine is ok for now, but as will all of you, it weeps, and eventually needs some work. Thoughts? Rich '97 Discover Series I

    Best after-market rear bumper?

    Ok, so maybe "best" requires some qualification. I've got a '97 D1 with no off-road mods... ok, cosmetic things like lamp guards. And I got a deal on the winch/bull bar OEM kit from LR to mount my Warn. Oh, and beefier springs. And AT tires. And bush wires. But I don't have shovels, sand ladders...
