Hi all!!!

We are Nathan(nate for short) & Nikki. We are from Ipswich, Queensland, Australia.

We have recently purchased a 2001 V8 series II SE discovery. We have had a couple of small setbacks since purchasing it, but thank god its covered by warranty.... other than that, absolutely LOVE IT

See you around guys

 

Welcome. The front propshaft, if oem, is a problem waiting to happen. The U joints don't all have grease nipples, it dries out, the shaft snaps with very little warning, and tries to knock a hole in transmission. Rebuilding (write up in our tech area), or replacing with a fully greasable one, should be high on the list of things to do. You will "discover" that the heat gauge stays at 50% over a very wide range, using a scanner or Ultra Gauge will give you a true picture of coolant temp. Many owners have converted the oem thermostat to a 180F "soft spring" model, lowering engine temps about 10F across the board. The "RAVE" is the factory set of shop, electrical, and owner manuals; free download link below.
