Thread: What happened to your Discovery 2 today?

Just replaced both engine mounts and transfer trans mounts with genuine one's, much improved now and not trying to vibrate my teeth out but still noticed some harshness/vibration. I guess this is just how they or is there a little trick to setting them up.

Just arrived in Balranald! Getting over having to rev the auto on mild inclines. I doubt the rest of the motel enjoyed my turbo spool.... excuse to whack an R380 in when it comes out

rev the auto,, as in 3rd?

its brand new,, why wont it pull top?

No, reverse. Bit of a hump and the larger tyres mean it's not real happy. But I know the auto is slipping

Drove to Melrose

Finished the engine service. Tracked down the coolant leak. (water pump housing) Tracked down the oil leak (rocker cover gasket)

Fitted a new deep cycle battery so the HF will work. Shame my bloody Engel didn't get picked up by the freight mob and freighed here. The Engel that's filled with a new head unit, new headlight globes, all my tools, stove, overalls, tyre repair kit, etc.

New wiper blades, filled the washer bottle.
Found the lower ball joint boots rooted.

Trans service and rooftop happen tomorrow.
Not using the highly rated Transmax Z, it was double the price of Penrite's FS ATF here in the Alice. $98/4 litres.
As good as Transmax Z is, I don't think it could be twice as good as Penrite's best.
