Wow, Ohh I love my Disco ohh so much!!

Disco was at the mechanic a month or so ago to change the crack fuel line and hasn’t been driven since arriving back at home.. Took it for a spin this weekend and it seems to Rev up to 4000, before it will change up a gear.... Any thoughts?

**The car is supposed to go off to be detailed, so I can get rid of this plague of a problem of a car.... Arghhhh

Is it a V8?, i guess its a slushbox, if so its not in 'sport' mode is it?, this holds gears

a dead or dieing MAF and cause bad auto shifting.

also check if it is in sport mode (M will be on the dash).

Don't you mean "S" will be on the dash? I thought the "M" is for "Manual Mode" in low range only...

So we drove the disco yesterday... I know we shouldn’t but we had to pick up hay for the horses!!

Car was revving up to 4000 again, however it then started working normal again and changing gears with no complications... We have decided to take it to the mechanic around as we don't want to mess around if it has anything to do with the gear box.
