the nipple on the underside of the tank probably has a crack in it. they do that as they age and if they are stressed by the hoses.

yeah. it's pretty rough. but, i drove diesel f250s and 350s for years and towed with them. if i never drive one again, i'll be just fine. i enjoy driving my Discovery even with it's limitations and i'm willing to work within those limitations.

i'm running the RTE 2" coils and Fox shocks, as well. overall, i'm happy with the ride quality. though, after doing a bit of towing with a heavy trailer, i did throw in some one inch spacers on the rear.

after doing a little more research and reading i decided to dig into the engine bay the other day. pulled the plug off the TPS and gave both ends a cleaning. i noticed the silicone(?) dust moisture seal was torn and bunched up and simultaneously realized the plug had come off far too easily...

pulled some codes today with the Foxwell NT. as I said previously, i cannot pull any codes with the Land Rover specific software but was able to with the generic OBD2 software. Stored Codes, none Pending Codes, P0500 Vehicle Speed Sensor A Permanent Codes, P2135 Throttle/Pedal Position...

came out from the grocery store a few weeks back to see a Grenadier parked directly in front of my '04 Discovery. it is a great looking vehicle in person. after seeing yours and pm's and seeing one in real life, i'm hoping to have one myself in the next year or two.

i'm still getting the restricted performance mode happening every 130-150 miles. the check engine light never comes on and we can get the LR4 to reset itself by turning it off and waiting 10-15 minutes. then in 130-150 miles it does it all again. will there be codes present even without the...

your temps look good. i had the same on my '04. i did the inline mod because i do some towing in the summer and it gets into the upper 90's in July and August here.

i replaced my knock sensor with a new one, erased the code, and drove. code came back, but i don't know when since it never threw the check engine light. still have the code but issues driving and get 12 to 12.5 mpg around town with a steel front winch bumper, winch, steel rear bumper, and...

1996 Discovery 1. picked it up for $3,100.00 in 2008. picked it up from a young medical equipment rep who had just moved to St. Louis from the PNW. he had had it maintained at a competent indie shop. it was the nicest vehicle we had ever had. leather seats, ac that worked. and, at that...

what year and engine do you have? i have 2004 4.6 that has always has a knock sensor code but never throws the check engine light. it runs just fine and i and my mechanics have never been able to figure out the issue.

replaced both MAFs and air filters today. started the LR4 up and it had a very rough idle that shook the whole vehicle. of course, restricted performance popped up as did the check engine symbol. pulled out the generic (not rover specific) code reader and got two throttle position sensor...

the LR4 went into restricted performance mode again last Thursday. turned off the Rover and let it sit for 10 minutes and the restricted performance warning was gone and LR4 drove normally. Friday the check engine light came on but no restricted performance warning. Saturday i plugged in the...

who is the manufacturer? I'm interested in the diff cover if it fits a D2.

my '96 had OBD2.
