Default Disco Quirks??

Fun miles so far, but here are some oddball issues:

#1: passenger door lock doesn't lock electrically, but will unlock manually if you pull the door handle release 2 full times,

#2: power steering and steering wheel "wobbles" at slow speeds, but firms up above 70mph,

#3: brake pedal has a lot of travel and then feels slightly soft/mushy during hard braking (needs new pads+bleed??),

#4: wind noise through the passenger window even though fully closed and door fully closed (weather stripping??).

Anyway, 165 miles today through bumper to bumper traffic commuting around.

1. We got same problem bro! Still have to check that also but nobody sits at back anyway.
2. Check steering stabilizer. Sway bar link and bushing worn.
3. yes, check pads and bleed.
4. Window weather seal went down inside door panel.

#3 could also be a vacuum leak.
