The car I traded in was a 1998 ford expedition with the 5.4 triton V8 and I was getting 10-12 mpg on a 29 gallon tank..... and now my disco isn't getting anywhere near 10 mpg and I barely get MAYBE 200 miles out of a tank. I got a call from my dealer saying the parts ETA is this week so I'll be taking a trip to my local LR dealer and let them see what's up.

LOL part time job is right! My local British Petroleum station LOVES me.
