Hi and welcome!

My posts are short, because I'm not very good at typing!

Buy yourself a GAP IId - will be invaluable if you plan on keeping the car.

welcome aboard!

IID BT does almost everything except make a brew whilst you're using it, highly recommended by many on here.

High-flow air filter … I was going to do that but advised not to bother by Flack on here, who has done my last couple of services. Noisy and no improvement if I remember rightly.

Hello I'm not sure if I'm on the correct page to introduce myself but I will anyway.
I have joined this forum because I will be purchasing either a D3 or a D4 in the not too distant future and I need to do as much research as possible to try to dispel some of the myths and negative info I have read about the D3 or 4.
Currently I am the proud owner of a 1997 D1 300TDI which I absolutely love however I crave something a bit faster and more comfortable due to being 63 years of age.
I am a male truck driver and I live in the West Country.
So Happy New Year to all of you Thumbs Up

Welcome also

I don’t think there are that bad (hope I’m not proved wrong) but I’m hoping the benefits outweigh the negatives

United Kingdom 2009 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Stornoway GreyDiscovery 3
Hello from a new Disco 3 owner! Any tips gratefully received

Hi

Just bought a 2009 (May) Disco 3 HSE 2.7 TDV6 with 85,000 miles . I pick it up on Wednesday night. Never owned a Landy before although my Dad had a 101, a lightweight and a safari in the 70's.

I am totally green when it comes to car mechanics having always had Audi's and BMW's


Any tips or general thoughts when I first get it? Ive read through the forum and am a bit panicky about all the problems

Welcome BigNickUK

I suggest you check the service history carefully against:-

https://www.disco3.co.uk/gallery/albums/us...0miles.pdf

ensuring that belts have been changed; also search the forum for "Oil Pump" - my view is that if it hasn't been changed it should be, a fresh oil pump will enhance engine life, even if you are replacing an updated pump.

and generally read the WiKi here including:-

https://www.disco3.co.uk/wiki/Maintenance

and

https://www.disco3.co.uk/wiki/Known_Issues...05_Onwards

You haven't completed your profile, please do. If auto I would change the oil in the "sealed for life" gearbox.

Good luck.

Nowt wrong with a Jazz, cheap as chips motoring, suits what I need perfectly. Only thing I miss is cruise control. Sad
