Throttle body heater started weeping and my temps were climbing a bit. Not sure if the TBH leaking or the coolant cap so I bypassed the heater today and ordered a cap which should arrive tomorrow. If not, guess I'll look into replacing the radiator or the viscous fan next. Or perhaps I'm being to sensitive to temp fluctuations? I was holding around 203F in traffic and 198F on the freeway but now I'm sitting at 203F freeway and 208F around town.
Still slowly getting the green rover back together, hoping to fire it back up this weekend if my schedule allows..
On a more exciting note, I'm picking up a 1.4 t-case on Friday for the white one. Should seriously help the drivability as it will put me roughly at a 3.9 final gearing at the diffs. My stock t-case is starting to leak worse and pretty pumped to be able to not have any downtime while I seal up the 1.4 case and then just have to deal with swapping it in.
It never fails… whenever I let my wife drive my Disco to work she returns it with a problem. It’s either empty on petrol, the key is stuck in the ignition slot, 3-amigos or flashing M&S. This time she returns it and says the A/C doesn’t work.
Juke, I hear ya. Same for me. CEL on the dash that has never popped up before...or since (about 3 weeks ago). My car and my wife don't really like each other. Someday I will have to choose.
Luckily my A/C problem was an easy fix. She had "ECON" on. Doh!
This morning I drove with my wife to see how she drives Myrtle. Everything went well until 5 minutes into driving she stopped at a red light and the 3 bongs sounded. I now have 4-Amigos.

That is too funny my AC was doing nothing then I noticed that damm thing was on, yesterday no less
Charged A/C, oil/filter change and front drive shaft drop and grease time for the 03. Checked fluids, all good, checked codes, nothing but the deleted SAI codes, cleared them...so, shes good to go.
Had the ac charged at a shop or did one of the home kits? I have to charge mine!

Just did a auto parts refill/can charge, system working, just a little weak on the cooling end of things. It's normally a 12 oz. can low every season, so just a quick fill. If it were something more, then the gauges get brought out.
I know The Deputy is a seasoned mechanic, but for many others of you out there, be very careful adding refrigerant. Too much in the system can lock up the compressor and cause other problems, like the serp belt getting fried as it passes over the non-moving A/C pulley. Not that I ever did that ...
