Hi guys - I just noticed a weird sound coming from my 2000 Disco in idle. I can only hear it from the outside of the truck. The idle sounds firm but there is a hydraulic sounding release of gas every 5 or 6 seconds. At the same time as the sound, the idle drops about 500 rpm or so then plateaus again until the next interval. The noise cannot be heard inside the cabin and I don't notice a drop in the RPM on the gauge when I sit inside and listen for it. Any ideas? Is this a normal release from my SLS? Not really overly concerned yet, just curious.

Do you have ACE?

Leslie - Yes I have ACE. I took a good listen today. Seems less noticeable but still audible from inside the truck. Also, it makes the noise while driving at a constant speed.

Normal sound from a ace/sls package. It is pumping fluids around and adjusting the sls while it sits there. |

That is reassuring. It didnt sound particularly nasty but just wanted somebody to verify it was normal. Thanks for the replies guys.
