    Considering dropping my own trany

    Hi; You don't mention your working conditions, ideally a hoist and a transmission jack would make this a fairly easy task.... If you have to (like i do) lay on your back under the vehicle in the great outdoors it will be difficult but not impossible to remove the transmission.... You mention...

    piston wrist pins cause a rapping sound when revving up and down quickly also do not discount worn connecting rod bearings, main bearings make a thud sound under load..... also remove the oil pan and check for pieces of broken piston skirts.......

    Stock Bottle Jack

    3 chimes, no lights, no OBD2 codes ???

    My Disco I has a multi function unit this is a white box plugged into the back of the main fuse panel, it controls a number of things like chimes and interior lights... I recently had to replace it (plug and play) Is there a chance your Disco II has this unit ?
