    cold start engine noise

    2002 disco 170k miles on the OD. Engine normally runs like a top. It is well maintained but still leaks oil like most rovers do. As the cold weather in New England sets in, the cold starts were getting noisy. Sounded like a small rock bouncing around in the oil pan or possibly a loose heat...

    Fender bender - might get totalled!

    Update on this - They say the truck 2002 D2 w/140k miles is worth $3920.00. I showed them 15 months worth of invoices totalling 3500+ from AB, RN, DAP (damn! can't believe I spent so much) which they "will utilize 50% of the value"... I had no invoice for any labor because I did all the work...

    Fender bender - might get totalled!

    Wondering what is the best way to deal with this? Ironically - the 2002 Discovery was at a local mechanic to have the throttle body warmer replaced because it was leaking. They crashed the car into a wall while moving it around and caused damage to RH side. Headlight, fender, support for...

    DII died and won't start

    This is exactly right - once it cools down it starts right up - but it shuts down very suddenly after a few minutes of driving. I attributed the first time to some very wet conditions, but apparently wet had nothing to do with it. Stalled again on a gorgeous day 4 minutes from home. Luckily I...

    DII died and won't start

    DII died and won't start. Starter cranks just fine but engine won't start. OBD is throwing p0366. Is this crank shaft position sensor or camshaft position sensor? Any way to bypass to get home?

    Misfire when accelerating

    It's the coils, no spark on #4 even at idle. I had no idea the engine would idle so smooth with a dead cylinder but it does. I'm going to get ready for my ass-whoopin' and start changing the coils.

    Misfire when accelerating

    Thanks Bill - It's worth a try. Let me try to get this straight, the reasoning behind the MAF causing a misfire and/or rough acceleration is the MAF incorrectly calculating the mass of the air flowing through the intake (still within normal ranges otherwise I would expect other codes) then this...

    Misfire when accelerating

    2002 Disco 2 137kM Dealing with a sudden onset of three codes, P0300, and P0304, and a random P0303 after refueling from a Mobile Gas Station I go to regularly. For months I was noticing rough idle (no codes) on humid days and after rain storms, but once it warmed up, it would be fine. I...

    dirt bike carrier

    Ah - sweet setup. I've got the 450exc. Ktm makes awesome bikes. Thanks for the replies. Good to know the hitch won't bend off, I didn't think it would, but read on other forums about some RRC hitch just dropped off after a bump. It Must have been rusted through like a typical RRC. I'll...

    dirt bike carrier

    Anyone with a disco2 have any advise on transporting a dirt bike with those trailer hitch attachments? There are few models out there, which one is the best? The bike weights ~240lbs. I've heard stories about these things not working so well and bending the hitch on Rovers. What was your...

    coolant leak behind water pump

    Removing Timing Chain Cover on a Disco II 4.0 is not easy. I got the crank shaft bolt off, that's a piece of cake, the crankshaft pulley no problem, the oil pan? wtf! I just read this: http://www.landroversonly.com/forums/f40/how-removed-timing-cover-4-0-a-25124/ Now I realize I must drop the...

    coolant leak behind water pump

    Yea - I'm going to visit pops and his heated garage in a few days. I'll bring a new gasket with me and do it there. Have you done one before? Looks like the crank pulley needs to come off and a few other things. I read somewhere that a few oil pan bolts had to come out too. I'd hate to have...
