Default Disco is tough as nails
So this Disco was towed in recently. The customer was mudding, long story short.....it ended up at the bottom of a lake. 20 feet down. After about 3 hours they were able to bring it back up. We pulled the interior, changed all the fluids and a couple of control modules, and it started up. We still have work to before it is road ready, but I am impressed.

So far we changed the XYZ switch, BCM, and ECU. Not bad considering it was under water for three hours.
