    try cylinder liners

    There is a common noise in the v8s where the liners have come loose. This happened to my less than 100,000 disco 2. If true it means engine out and machining of block for "top hat liners".
    Hopefully this is not the issue though...

    ive driven the car nearly 1000klms now and some how the knock has gone, it had to much oil in the sump(so i drained some) and also the breather was slightly blocked so i cleaned it out, dont know what the noise was but havent heard it in a while.
    she running great atm but using a little 2 much fuel.

    last tank i worked out i was getting 6.1 klms to ltr does that sound right?
    revs at 100k/hr was 2200-2300??

    So that's what, about 19L/100km. Not out of the question to get that although it depends on how you drive it, modifications etc.

    I would say about 16L/100 is about right for a V8 Disco, well going from the numerous discussions about it on here. I have heard of 25L/100km around the city in heavy traffic, but as mentioned it all depends on how you drive it.
