    a small puddle of oil after oil change

    This may have been beaten to death already, but here goes. 120K on the clock, valve cover gaskets are semi dry, no history of any major leaks so far. Went for an oil change and a few days later found a small puddle under the front driver side, not more than half a cup maybe, but still...

    Where to get juice for the backup cam?

    Long story short, my stock audio H/U is acting up, decided to go aftermarket. The new single din Kenwood I got has an IN for a back up cam, so I thought why not hook up a cam. Now, for anyone who did this, whats the easiest place to tap into the wire that triggers the reverse lights? Thanks in...

    Pass side low and high beam

    Cheers to all, and this may have been beaten to death, my pass side bulb is fine but it fails once and again. Fails = lights up in half the brightness needed, kind of yellowish, both lows and brights. I sprayed some contact cleaner spray into the socket, but it did not give a fix. If I tap on...

    16 to 18 rims: any improvement in HWY MPG?

    Cheers to all! I am contemplating an upgrade to 18 hurricanes, as my 95% hwy MPG still sucks at around 16 mpg (a refill is needed at around 350 miles) on mostly highway driving. I mostly do highways nowadays, and the only offroading I still do is cruising on the sand on beaches in NC, and...

    I know its been beaten to death, but just as a matter of sharing, I went 379 miles from gas station to gas station, on a 2001 Disco, mostly hwy, and the yellow light did not come on, the needle was on the last point before empty. I had A/C off for some time, and i am posting just because it...

    rough idle, arching behind the engine

    Hey guys, just wanted to run this by you all: just drove my 01 Disco, SES light came on flashing, noticed the rough idle and shaky running of the engine. Popped the hood and heard "extra" ticks, it is dark out, so I looked closer and saw sparkles near the firewall behind the engine, driver...

    Horn no workie on a 2001 for no apparent reason...

    Cheers to all: here is the deal, the truck was sitting without any use for a good couple a months (it was cold and very rainy here in DC). Started driving it just now, realized horn is not working at all. Fuse was blown, replaced it (in the compartment under the hood), now every time someone...

    WTB: Disco II 99-03 SE Front Bumper

    The bumper on my Silver 01'Disco SE got cracked when it encountered a snow pile... The stealer wants an obscene amount (over $450) for the replacement. My rig has working Fogs, so I am looking to get just the bumper (possibly with the nozzles on them). Thanks!

    D2 Serpentine Belt OEM with ACE

    Pictures posted! I bought a serpentine belt from the stealer in Rockville (Manhattan Jag-LR) but obviously, almost expectantly was given the wrong one as my rig has no ACE, so i need a short one. They wont take it back as i lost my receipt, so here it goes. Longer version belt, only fits D2s...

    I've searched a bit here and it may be I am on to a serious issue, please share if you know: Just replaced the serpentine belt and what i hear is a suddle grinding noise that seems to coincide with one of the pulleys rotation speed. It vanishes almost if i hit the throttle, but then again, i am...

    sorry, its another wet carpet passenger side thread: after rain in D2

    Help! Yes, my AC drains are clear; but I found water dripping on the pass side after we were hit with these kick-butt rains in DC (and the truck was not driven at all)! I found that the water comes out of the circular hole in the black cover below the glove box (the ceiling of sorts for the...
