    Busted Mirror

    A few days ago someone hit my 03 disco :mad: and drove off. They knocked the mirror out of the case on the passenger side, but it doesn't look like anything is broken. I think that I was able to get it clipped back in, but the mirror will not move left to right, only up and down. Is it not in...

    I've noticed that on and off the last few mornings when my disco is cold that it doesn't seem to shift into 4th gear on the freeway. Once the car warms up it fine. Any thoughts? Low fluid? Bigger issue :( ?

    forever black on exterior trim

    So I ordered some of the forever black stuff from AB to dye the exterior trim on my disco. Has anyone used this product before? Any tips or advice? Should I sand the trim around the wheel wells before I apply it? The trim feels like sand paper its so UV damaged.

    weird water sound

    So I've got an 03 disco that has a really strange sound coming from the passenger side dash. The only way I can really describe it is as a gurgling/sloshing sound. I hear it primarily when I first accelerate and then it seems to go away. Could it be a heartercore issue? I get good heat from...

    Check Engine light... quality of gas?

    Over the last month or so I've had my check engine light come on and stay on for 3-4 days at a time. I've noticed it when I had to fill up with lower quality gas and it seems to go back off when I've filled up again and ran a tank or two with v-power from shell. Coincidence? :confused:

    Tick/ knock

    So I'm getting a tick/knock out of my 03 Disco when I'm heavy on the throttle and not sure what it is. I had an exhaust manifold loose before that was causing a similar sound so check that first and all the bolts seemed tight. Anyone have any thoughts on what it might be other than that?

    CDL question

    Hey everyone I have a 03 Disco SE7 that currently does not have a CDL. (I don't think that was an option in 2003?) But I've heard of after market kits to convert Discos into an HSE. Does anyone have any experience with this? I really would like to have the CDL.
