    Coolant leak ('00 DII)

    I'm not concerned about the washer itself, rather I'm not sure about if it fell into that hose opening on top of the valve cover. Could that cause damage to the engine? Does that opening go straight into the engine block?

    Coolant leak ('00 DII)

    Got the kit yesterday and TRIED to do it myself before work today. Think I may have made things worse... Got everything apart alright and went to install the new gasket and heater plate, while trying to install new heater plate I dropped the bolt and washer. I found the bolt under the truck...

    Coolant leak ('00 DII)

    Awesome, thanks for the feedback. Got the kit ordered and will probably attempt to replace it myself. Had it happen a few years ago too but took it in to a shop.

    Coolant leak ('00 DII)

    '00 LR Disco II, 156k miles. Has been running pretty well lately. Drove home early this morning and didn't notice anything unusual about how the truck was running, and also didn't notice the temperature gauge being other than normal. When I got into my driveway and parked I immediately...

    Difficulty putting into Park

    Sorry, its a 2000 Discovery II, thought that was in my signature but guess not. Anyways, I just found the problem. A penny had fallen in there and was lodged in front of the linkage, partially blocking it from going all the way forward into park. Its pretty cool actually the penny is creased...

    Difficulty putting into Park

    Yesterday after a drive when I parked I noticed the shift lever did not want to go into Park. It works just fine once out of Park in all the other gears, but to put back into Park takes quite a bit of muscle and it just feels like something will break. Any ideas on the sort of things I should...

    abnormal tire wear?

    Well I just got two 245/75/16 General Grabber AT2's mounted and balanced on the rear. Holy cow, I probably should have replaced those worn Destination's about a year ago. The ride is immensely smoother and quieter, no idea it would've been that big of a difference. Most likely over the...

    abnormal tire wear?

    OK, well I really can't remember when they were rotated or how many miles since then. However, I'm sure that the uneven/accelerated wear only began since the last rotation. Maybe they had started to wear down more when they were on the front, but it wasn't enough for me to take notice or think...

    abnormal tire wear?

    OK, this is on my 2000 Land Rover Discovery. Firestone Destination M/T's that have been on the truck since SEP 2008, and have put ~36,000 miles on them. Have rotated them twice since they've been on the truck. Were great tires with little noise and relatively smooth ride. The last year or...

    Rotor screw

    Ok, thanks for the help. I'll blame it on trying at the end of a long day outside while it was rain/snowing. When out today on my lunch break and within a couple whacks of the impact driver with #3 phillips it was coming out.

    very uneven pad wear, what to look for

    Noticed a scraping sound at the end of a road trip last week. Wasn't sure what it was until a couple days ago. Felt the rear passenger side wheel was very hot, then noticed the outer half of the rotor was real rough. Took the pads out today and the outside pad had worn down all the way to the...

    Rotor screw

    Stupid question, that rotor screw has a normal thread on it right? As in lefty loosy, righty tighty. Struggled with it for 30 minutes, went and bought one of those hammer impact drivers and still didn't get it after another thirty minutes hammering away. And I also used a good amount of PB...
