quick question. is it ok for me to go somewhere else besides my local lr shop to get my oil changed?

 

YES!

 

Better yet, do it yourself. Just did mine yesterday and didn't even have to put it up on ramps. I slid under the front anddrained the oil out of the crankcase, then the filter. Took maybe 30 minutes including drain time. 6 quarts of Mobil 1 5w-30 and a K&N 3001 oil filter. Easy!!

Yeah, the Disco, or, for that matter most "true" off road vehicles have enough ground clearance to easily do an oil change without jacking up the vehicle. It is certainly more economical to do it yourself, and you can make sure (on the Disco or other model Land Rover) that you prefill the oil filter to help keep the oil pump prime on start up. Besides, with any Land Rover/Range Rover truck you should be very very familiar with all the lubrication points and capacities and check the levels from time to time on transmission, transfer case, differentials, swivel pins, etc..and don't forget to grease your u-joints and slip-joints.

 

Why not do it your self, learn what nakes your truck tick and save some money in the process.
How many miles on your truck?
