Evening all Hope all are well on this fine evening.
So not new to disco ownership but very much wet behind the ears when it comes to a D3, and mine is testing me that's for sure.
the vehicle is:
2008(58) discovery 2.7tdv6 auto
When i first got it after a short time when starting to get warm it would kangaroo be it in drive, sport or powershift the rev range drops and picks back constantly. this problem still Happens
. then i found out i needed two front lower arms, a n/s drive shaft and a n/s rear abs sensor. Since replacing this it now gets to 35mph and disables the HDC ,Terrain and ride height selection and it lower's itself all the way down. If i pull over switch the vehicle off and back on again it resets until i go over 35mph and it happens again.
The surging feels as though it has something holding it back then releasing it again and back to holding it back again the revs drop by 500-600rpm when it does this and keeps on doing it until 3000 rpm when it seems to even out and drive smoothly until the next gear change and repeats itself again also the Traction control system kicks in for no reason That i can see anyway.
So would any of your more clued up people have any idea as to why it doing what its doing when jacking it up i did put it into offroad height and left one of the doors open. I'm sure i've made some errors in doing all this but we all have to learn and start from somewhere
Many thanks
