Have you tried putting it in low range to see if it affects noise? and also see if it happens when reversing.

Hi hopefully this post will help people with a sticking valve. My noise was a loud tick when the motor was warm, it sounded like a leak or cracked exhaust manifold with a loud tapping. Because I occasional get a tappet rattle on cold starts (only 1 or 2 seconds) i thought i would try wynn's...

Hi its leaking from the lip of the sump in the small gap between the gearbox. There does not seem to be any space for a leak to come from anywhere else but the sump. Luckily its not leaking bad, thanks for putting my mind at rest with the above info, its really appreciated!

Hi no leaks at all another issue is the sump gasket was leaking so they replaced it but it still has a leak from the back of the sump next to the tranny. They are saying its the crank seal ?

Hi I took my 1997 3.9i LPG discovery to a LR independent garage due to some leaks. The autobox had a crack on the casing so the casing needed to be changed. After getting the car back I checked the level (in park engine running) and there was no fluid. It took 1.45 litres to bring the level...

What about my exhaust? YouTube - 1994 Land rover discovery 4.0L V8 MONSTER

Waxoil works brilliantly as long as you got rid of all the flaky rust before applying it. Ideally you should do the whole vehicle once a year around october time(before the council start chucking salt all over the road). I promise you if you do this your car will last a very long time.

^^^^^^^^Its been too long and wont let me edit it so i will just look like a prat, never mind i like being the forum's nooob.

You know what i meant, good spot anyway and have now edited it to say steel.;)

Seeing as you spent so much money on it, it must be in almost 100% condition so is it not better just to keep it. Thats the only way you will get value for money, by just keeping it.

I had the same problem on my 1990 discovery but when i bought my 1994 discovery the same seat fitted. I thought the belt would have been the same size but it was not, it was obviously longer.

Are you sure the reaction he's talking about is not aluminum corrosion. I had that on my discovery, rub the paint off and loads of white powder came off too but the aluminium panel was actually fine, if it had been a metal panel it would have been pitted badly. Then i simply resprayed and its...

People are so scared of buying jags and i dont now why. Since ford took over jaguar the cars have been really really reliable and you can source cheap parts for them too. My 4.0l sovereign 1992 did 25mpg and was 100% reliable. Cars these days are so ugly thats why i love the look of the...

Its different for me because i work at home, i think if i did'nt i would still use a landy as a second car. If i could only afford to run one car i would run a v8 with lpg kit because diesel is getting so expensive. But some lpg kits can be more trouble than their worth. Anyway off to bed got to...

Do the majority of people on here have diesels then and not v8's.

I am finally seeing the light.

I live around the wash on the lincs/cambs/norfolk borders and the countryside is flat but full of dykes, rivers and shed loads of water. Maybe i will get a kit i thought the v8 would be ok because the dizzy cap is high on the engine but i know you can screw the starter motor up because its low...

Is there a way round it for the V8...i mean to make it good in deep water?

Is there an initiation ceremony?

I thought we were best friends.
