    Coolant in cylinder issue

    My 04 Discovery was registering a misfire at start up. My shop diagnosed a coolant leak in cylinder #6.

    Still tracking down coolant leaks.

    I've been smelling coolant lately and noticed the reservoir needed topping off. Looking around I noticed some seepage around the bleed screw on the T-connector. I tried to tighten it, but it's still leaking. In lieu of replacing the whole connector, I'm thinking it needs a gasket under the...

    Steering box or CV Joint?

    I'm hearing a knocking noise from the front end of my 1998 Discovery when I have the wheels in a tight turn. The knocking only happens when I am moving so I suspect it might be a CV joint. But I have never had a CV joint go bad so I don't really know if it is that or the steering box. Anyone...
