i am on my second disco. have a 95 d I that is pretty beat up, but still runs like a champ. very easy to fix....
now i have a 99 dII. so far i have dumped $2k into it the weak i rolled it into the driveway. and by $2k i mean that was the parts....i did all of the work myself...also not too hard.
to comfirm what my canadian friend said, my local shop guy said the same thing about head gaskets. that them failing on a dII is the stuff of urban (dealership) legend. mostly it is the valley pan gasket which mine was. and this was a fairly straight forward (scary) one day affair. the problem has been, that i will fix one code and three days later i get a new one.
now i have a p1884 and a p0102....and the 1884 requires testbook to say which one of the 8 problems it could be.
my slabs and ace are working pretty flawlessly so far (knock on wood). i like having the self leveling when i am towing, which the dII does like a champ.
