crawled all over the disco d2 today as i do regularly to keep an eye on things & guess what.one of the bolts for the sump was gone...shine a torch up the hole& you can see the thread.
guess who changed the sump gasket not long ago under warranty?the dealer
they either decided to leave it out or it fell out because it was'nt tight

and they want me to return & pay for jobs to be half done....i dont think so.....anyway things could be worse...sump plug wasnt loose

there is a t in the vacuum line that runs to the brake booster(think thats what u call it)that has nearly rubbed through the large coolant line that comes from the expansion tank.in true landy engineering the t only has to be installed either an inch to the left or right ,there is heaps of room,and there wouldnt be a problem.

also....the fuel cooler is a small square block on this engine....does anyone know when or why they were changed?

you guys with later model td5s should check this(the t & coolant hose) ....could save some greif


cheers
