In a nutshell, I'm illiterate with cars. This site has really made me wanna learn about my car, and how it works and how to fix it. I have a 95 Disco, and I absolutely love it. Where and how do I start working on it, how far is too far before i let the experts do it, and what are some basic recomendations? |

if you get bored look throguht the archives, there is a lot of stuff in there to read that can be very helpful. This site did the same thing to me, hell it stoped me from become a big posuer. I know about jack but am learning a lot through all the people on this board. |

I would suggest getting a workshop manual or Haynes manual at least. Start by doing routine maintaince and work you way up. Here's a good site with a maintaince schedule. If you feel uncertain or don't know what you are doing ask for help, you don't want to make the problem worse or you rig unsafe. http://www.robisonservice.com/servicedep/rover_advice2.asp#sched |

A lot of depends on if you can have your Rover out of commission for a while. You will always take longer if you are learning as you go. If you take 2 days to change the oil you may want to get help |
