    Disco 1 my discovery 1 (1995) 2.0 mpi ticking noise..

    My 3.5 RR had a similar sound at 100K miles which was instantly diagnosed as a worn camshaft by the LR dealer which was replaced by them. Maybe it would be worthwhile if it is a cam issue to replace both, which I believe you engine has two.

    Discovery Sport Boot / tailgate
