I've only had this 1999 Disco II for 3 months so I don't know it like I should. If anyone can help me out I would GREATLY appreciate it. Basically just trying to find out if I need to put a new transfer in it.
Here's the symptom, Driving in high range (transfer) there is a loud clunking that gets faster as you accelerate. It is louder under power and almost goes away if I let of the gas. If I put the transfer in low range the noise is gone and all sounds normal. I lifted up the rear wheels, started the vehical and put it in drive. Rear wheels turned but the fronts that were on the ground did not (making it a 2 wheel drive!) and yes still clunking and by getting under the car I can confirm it's coming from the transfer. I then took of the front drive shaft and of course now the vehical will know not even move confirming it's a 2wd instead of a 4wd.
I had it confirmed in my mind that it was cut and dry that I need a new transfer until reading tonight that the Disco II's have a ETC system that I know nothing about. Is it possible that I have a ETC problem or is it the transfer as I origally thought.
Thanks for your help and ideas...
