Hello, I have a 96 Disco I, and was hoping to find out, exactly how much is required for an oil change. I saw the posts about the larger filters and the 15w-40 for the oil, but nothing about the amount needed...

Secondly, my rear windows work, but my front ones do not. I checked the fuses, they are all good. When I push the button for the windows, I hear a clicking of the relay on the ECU. I pulled it out a few times now, and all is well. No bad solder spots or anything. Where would you go from here?

 

With a large filter, somewhere around 7 to 7 1/2 quarts. I use a NAPA 7014, which is huge. You'd think it would take a full extra quart, but I use the dipstick determine how full it is and whether I need to add more or not. I want it near the top of the range on the dipstick, but not so full the rod ends are dragging in the oil or foaming it from windage. It's easier to add a half quart than it is to drain overfill. There's no risk running a half quart low while you check the level after it goes a few miles and warms up.

For the windows, I suppose you could pop the door panels and check out what's going on with the motors. Try wiring them direct to 12V. If they run, work back from there.

 

Yep, till it reads between the dots on the dipstick...

 

Welp, I guess I fried my meter this week somewhere along the line.... but, I am not getting any output for the front windows from the ECU. It fires a relay, but that's all. No actual outputs via the large connector... Is there a way to bypass the ECU in these regards?

 

I think you posted on the wrong thread.

 

I don't think so. It's the second part to my original post....

 

So I got the front Passenger window, and all the rear windows to work form front center console. Drivers side is still in-operable. I could use a suggestion or a way to bypass the ECU for the front drivers window... or the front windows in general...

 

Have you checked the switch for the driver front window?

 

I did swap out the switches. The switch is good. I'm just not pushing current through to the window. I don't know if it's not sending from the ecu, or if it is pushing from there and just not making it to the window.

 

Check the wiring between the door and the body. lot of flexing when you open and close the door . could be a broken wire.
