Talking Hello From Virginia Beach, VA

I'm Rhyder, I'm 18, fresh out of high school, contracted to the NAVY, making more than the average american. Since I was barely walking I have loved and enjoyed cars. My mom has video of me walking our appartment complex car park naming off every car I could see "Buick Park Avenue!, Mercedes 190 E!, Ford F-150!, Mazda 626!" When I was able to form my own (bias)opinion about cars, I instantly took liking to European cars. Now today, 18, ready to buy my first car on my own, I looked at everything! VW, Audi, Mercedes, BMW and then..... found my love..... A Land Rover! Nothing could beat the unique look and feel of the Disco, I love the dual power sunroofs, I love the solid feel, I love it all!

I may have been slightly influenced by my families 2010 LR4 HSE but none the less, I feel I made the right purchase!

Welcome. Enjoy a download of the factory shop manuals called the RAVE, in links below.

Inspect front drive shaft, if original will need replacement or rebuild per our tech area, if it snaps you can loose the tranny. Heat gauge shows 50% from 130-240F, get a scanner to see real temps, and consider the 180F Land Rover thermostat upgrade.

All hands on deck for weekly under hood inspection.

Thank you!

My disco is a work in progress for sure, she's almost perfect.
