Just picked up my new to me 98' LE Disco. Overall a nice truck with low miles, but I have found a couple of issues -
The ignition key engagement is funky. You have to wiggle the key just right to get it to turn. I found a thread on a different forum for fixing this, basically involves grinding off the parts of the tumbler that are not being engaged by the key. Are there better options for repairing this? I can post the link if it is okay to link to other forums?
The front doors and gas door will not open with the key. Maybe the same issue as the ignition key? Or maybe the PO had something re - keyed. idk.
My wife will be driving this truck with our kids in it, I don't want her to have any issues getting in or out or starting it. Though she has figured out the ignition key and can start it easier then I can.
Any thoughts or suggestions on how to proceed would be appreciated.
