So what did you do to your Disco today?
#3831
Changed the oil with Rotella T 15W-40 and one of those massive Purolator filters. All went reasonably well. Got everything done and buttoned up before that massive black rain cloud arrived. Got the filter and oil online from Amazon delivered to the house. That's sweet. Guess, I'll need to re-order as I plan to change the oil again at 500-1,000 miles. Then every 3,000 thereafter.

Filter L40316, 8 quarts. The truck takes 7 and you'll need to fill the oil filter before connecting. The filter took probably a quart. When I was done with the oil change, I had a 1/2 quart +/- left over. Also, use some cardboard or similar behind the oil filter when you screw it off. The cardboard will direct the oil into your oil catch pan and away from the surrounding truck parts. (Got that from another thread and can't remember who posted it.) When you remove the side mounted oil drain plug, the oil will shoot out sideways. So, if your catch pan is directly below the drain plug, the initial gush of oil will overshoot the catch pan. I had a fairly wide and open pan and caught most of the gush. Had it not been for the extra large size, I would have dumped a quart or two of oil onto my gravel drive before I could have re-positioned the catch pan. Fortunately, my Truck had been sitting for several hours and the oil that got on my arm moving the pan was not hot.
