second owner of a 95 disco, original owner took regular maintenance @ dealer, i'm not rich and don't mind turning a wrench. got the haynes manual but seems short on some topics. have replaced basic stuff, antenae, pads , rotors, fog lamps and tried to follow maintenance plan by the book. i have 125,00 miles and she runs great, was wondering if there are any particular isssues i might need to look for. have had her for a year and done regular stuff, oil, lubes and check fluids weekly. would enjoy any replys. thanks

 

Here is a list i put together awhile back of things to do to a high miler to keep her up and running, if you have any questions get back to me.
