I got my Disco at 62K and now at 66K I have developed a BIG oil leak. I am under warranty, so not that big a deal. My dealer says I need a new intake gasket and oil pan. I wil only pay $100.00 no matter what they do.

My question is this: is there anything else I should be concerned about or check into regarding this work? I have had good results with my dealer and tend to trust their judgment and quality of work, I just want to check with you guys.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

-Marc

Marc--

I just had both of those replaced last week, as well as my valve cover gaskets and a new thermostat. In addition, ask them to check your oil filter housing for leaks. My filter housing is leaking now. Maybe I did not notice it before because of the valve cover gaskets. That should take care of it.

Ask them to check for TSB on changes to inlet gasket fixings - there is one on adding bigger washers under front and rear clamps
