RE: 2nd Disco Already Giving Me A Headache
I replaced the battery and thought I was in the clear. Flashing M+S and this time when I tried to restart the flashing started with the ignition on but truck not started yet. Started the truck Flashing M+S and SES Light. Turned off restarted M+S off but SES stayed on. What next?

i would bet the light goes out on its own,,
also did the parts store sell you a battery off the shelf and did they put it on a charger to "top it off" before handing it to you? if not then did you put it on a trickle charger to top it off at home. some of those batteries sit for long periods of time on store shelves. it is a good rule to charge any new battery to make sure you are getting the most from new. i used to do this when i was in the auto parts biz. its good practice and assures you are good from the get go

I changed the oil in the truck. Then started it M+S off SES on. Let it sit for about an hour All lights off. Noticed my engine coolant is a tad low and leaking from a small tube on top of radiator right side facing front of vehicle. Any chance low fluid set off SES? Should I get the code read somewhere? Battery was not topped off but was stickered 1/09' I will connect it to my trickle charger tonight.

Tuesday morning truck started no lights. Let it warm up for about ten. Put in reverse and flashing M+S. Turned off key out restarted M+S off SES light on. M+S seems to come on when put in reverse. It has come on when put into drive but most of time when put into reverse. Ive noticed that when I change the gear lever into drive there is a moment where the lights on the shift lever flicker while changing gears so I try to make gear selection quick and positive. Does anyone eles gear selector flicker like this?
