Hi,

Bit of a tricky one to describe so bare with me.

Both me and the Mrs have noticed a slight juddering when our disco is under low throttle and is moving from maybe 2nd to 3rd or 3rd to 4th(we have an auto).
I've mainly noticed it when going up hill(slight or steep gradient)when the engine is under load on a light throttle.As soon as you put your foot down it clears.
This problem happens regularly.
The light juddering can be felt through the vehicle and not just when driving.

Thanks for any help.

Is it at a certain revs ? Ours vibrates at 1600 rpm, we suspect its a flywheel damping problem but not 100% and don't fancy getting the body off to find out just yet

They have cv's on the props but seeing as the props barely move ( independant suspension not live axle) they shouldn't wear

Thanks mate.

Its deffo a low revs,around that area and I feel its low throttle too,If you get what i mean.???????
When driving it feels like your riding over the tarmac grip areas they put before traffic lights and roundabouts,just a very faint judder.
Soon as you step on the gas it clears.

I'd still check for play in the props, engine mounts..i could be more useful if you sold it and got an older disco or fender

Still could be, not completely writing off prop vibration it's just a lot less likely but hey it's a landy everything goes wrong

Getting it up on the ramps at work on Monday so will have a good luck round.

Thanks for the help so far.

Placed an order so see what happens
