I think this five can be happen with any car what use air suspension or just used on dirty or bad quality road, it sounds me a typical off road 4x4, EGR valve problem usual on all diesel, so all in all I like this car, want to be an owner
I have an LR3 with 133k. Never had any issues except replacing tie rods. I live in the mountains in Colorado and it’s certainly does it’s share of off road. Never had any of those issues.
Nice, lucky then I would expect but also guessing you take care of it. 👍😊 We see loads of road salt here during the winter so I think it maybe half the lifespan of any component that sits exposed. Colorado, snow country. I have seen some snowmobile videos from there. 😊

@@kviasen7603 Nope, haven't had any problems with them so far. Right now, we are back at the EGR Valve issue. Last time we changed them was in 2015.🙋♀️ Vera
@@LandRoverDrive I have a RRS 2006 (similar to the Disco) and the previous owner got the air intake for the air compressor to be positioned in the trunk so that it doesn't suck in all the dirt and dust from below the car when it's driving. I'm not sure if this will help the compressor live longer or not, but I do hope so :)
Thanks for the information, I'm looking to buy a Discovery 3 myself, in spite of all the known faults they really don't have many rivals in my eyes! I absolutely love the colour of yours, unfortunately over here (UK) they're almost all boring shades of grey, silver or black!
Thank you. 👍 Most here in Norway is also grey and black. It’s why I like mine in red even more as they are not that common. I don’t think there is a car quite as capable, comfortable and spacious out there. And definitely not within the same price ranges. 😊 I love it and will be driving it for many years. 🤙

👍😊 I’m jealous of that V8 for sure. I have change the upper rear control arm actually. Will maybe be in the next one. And the EPB module has jammed. 😅😅 So a good way on the next video of 5 things. 😊
Yes had some of those and electronic brake. However, the one that is annoying is error information 'Transmission Failure, HDC and Special Programmes not available, suspension lowered.' Seen lots of answers but here's what worked - first time Steering Angle Sensor - this was repaired with a plastic weld. The second time it was due to the Brake Switch. Still love my Discovery 3 - best and most useful vehicle I've had.
I haven't had those failures yet and hopefully it will be a while. I bought the Brake Switch and put it into my cars so it's now always traveling with me. 😂😂
I’ve had mine for 2 years a 2005 lr3 146k miles & the only MAJOR problem I had was the brake system failed so I had to install a new brake line but other than that I did have to change the drive shaft bearing but was kinda easy, my drive shaft link failed so my truck wouldn’t stay in drive but that was also an easy fix and the part was only $40 , and my motor resistor went but that was a $20 part and fixed all these myself so if you can deal with the small problems that come with these trucks often then you’ll have no problems cause the truck is a great utility vehicle if it’s taking care of but I just wouldn’t say failures but when they get a lot of miles things just wear so it should be expected…great video too
Thank you! It's seems like you have a good truck with only those issues. Brake lines are a bit fiddly but an okay job to do. The truck is a great "do it all" vehicle, and with no major failures it it's a blast to own. 👍🙂
True and I see your point. And with a heavy set car like the D3 you could argue that it would be expected. But good to know what to expect when getting one of these. 😊👍
Yeah, I totally agree. If you find a good one and maintain it well it will serve you well. I’m super happy with mine even though I have some hours in the garage fixing it. 😊 Good thing is that I know how to fix it if something would to go wrong out on a trip. 👍
Air compressor will not fail - the air dryer cap will because it has a design flaw where its molded into two peices and it will develop a leak. $70 for a alluminum cap on ebay and 30 mins of your time and you are sorted. I did that repair back in 2017 ;) - My 5 things list is, ash tray, glove box, air dryer cap for compressor, height sensors and parking sensors.
Air dryer cap is a good one, and yeah you could fix it. I drove too long with failure so I thought it was best to just to the replacement as I did not know the conditions of the piston and seals. With a new one I knew it would last for at least 7 more years. 🙂 Will try it out next time and do a service on the dryer it self. Ash try, I forgot that one... I have jammed it shut so have totally forgotten about it.
FWIW, our list includes the EPB, EGR valves, fuel filter, passenger seat airbag sensor, boot switch and the rear wheel hubs - which let go all of a sudden...
Hi Tim, I haven’t had the rear bearings fail yet, 😅, not sure how long they’re supposed to last. Mines at 235 000km now and still rolling fine. Air bag sensor and boot switch is not on my list either, yet. 😂 I have the manual release but haven’t gotten around to mounting it. Best, Simon.
I would not buy a vehicle from any company knowing all the thing that will soon fail, these items should be addressed before it leaves the lot, I am on the verge of buying a Land Rover but not not now, thanks for the advice.
I will cross my fingers. 😅😅 I would have loved to have tried the LR3 with a V8 just to feel the difference. Super solid engine so I think it would maybe be worth it despite the fuel consumption. 👍😊
I’ve not had the air tank or the centre bearing (yet). Maybe the air tank corrosion is location/weather dependent. I think air struts and front lower control arms are more common than air tank and centre bearing.
Okay, yeah maybe. 🤔 Location and road conditions probably has a lot to say. And usage I would think. Control arms is a given. 😅 Air tank is definitely a salty roads problem like all the other rust issues we see here in Norway. From what I have learned there is a bit of salt on the roads in the UK as well. I had a rock get between the tank and the chassis after off-roading and I’m pretty sure it speeded up the whole process. 😊
I have a 2008 RRS 3.8 tdv8 basically same car as the disco 3 and yes all the same issues. Owned for 7 years and so far I have changed EGR valves, prop shaft , alternator, 2 batteries, gearbox torque converter, front lower wishbones but NO problem with air suspension parts yet !😉 LOVE THE CAR THOUGH 😂😂💪……..air conditioner condenser has just failed!!🥴
Hehe, there is always someting. Converter, that is on my "I wish it will never happen" list. 😅😅 Would be an expensive fix here in Norway. 2008 RRS really looks great. TDV8 would have been a good upgrade for the D3.
Hey Steven, do the truck have a drain plug? I noticed there was a plug on old air tank but not on the new. Never drained or heard of anyone draining it on the Discovery. Min rusted on the inside against the chassies as a rock, from a off-road day, had jammed in between the tank and the chassies. But good point, why you should drain your air compressor tank as well. Thanks for watching! 👍🙂
All vehicles have wheel bearing failures, EGR failures, compressor failures. Not just Land Rovers. My vehicle is a TD4 with 182000 miles, that's not bad ,things will wear with age.
Bra video! 👏🏼 Men har du sagt A, må du si B, og sikkert C også! Kjør Part 2. Kan jo nevne bytte av oljepumpe ved regreimskifte, baklukeaktuator osv osv osv. 😅
Hehe, kan bli mange bokstaver til slutt. 😅😅 Har faktisk ikke bytte oljepumpa, men også usikker om jeg har forsterket type eller ikke. 😱 Bakluke har jeg ikke tenkt på. Ser flere installere en backup, mulig jeg må se nærmere på den løsningen. 😊
yeah your correct, but just to add to your list. #6 lower front control arms, #7 turbo # front and rear suspension bushings, brake lines, oil pump if old style, thermostat, gearbox, and electric handbrake and the front diff because of the old style diff breather filter.. apart from that should be ok, good luck, p.s love my discovery 3
Thanks for the info! I love my Disco too. 🙂 Some good points there. Check out my full review of the Discovery wich came out after this video. Has some of the things you mention. Need to check my diff breaters.. 😅
I have had issues with my Tie Rods- so many Tie Rods. But I am running Larger tires. I would say the tank is more weather dependent- I Live near Washington DC and it has been fine for me- Not much snow or salt. Overall, My front suspension is robustly fragile- I would imagine it would be from the larger 4.4 V8 and Larger tires (not to mention off-roading/minor rock crawling etc)-
Weather and salt for sure. I guess the bigger tires is a big factor too. My front steering rods has been on for 6 years now and is starting to fail. Rear tie rods has been on for 5 years and still working as it should. I run "origigna" tires size or narroer so I guess they would last longer. Rock crawl i would guess puts a lot of strain on the undercarriage componets duo to the tire grip, angles and V8 torque. 🙂 I envy that V8 for sure. 👍
I have had my d3 for 9 years and 4 of those things have failed. Not sure if one of the previous owners have replaced the hubs. The bushes on the suspension arms also go regularly.
Hi buddy and what mileage is your disco at before you start thinking of changing out your engine oil pump ? Saw on other TH-cam videos that the oil pumps fail on a 2.7 tdi landy as well
Hey, I’m just over 200k km and I’m actually waiting for a quotation for timing belt, oil pump and a water pump change. 😊 I’m not sure when it starts to fail but the best way to check is to measure the oil pressure against the original specs. 👍
If it’s not the EGR’s that is going bad and it’s when the driveline is under load it could be the torque converter. But with not have power I would probably start with checking the EGR valves.
no.5 wheel bearings? mine are an annual event thats for sure. seem to alternate left to right, so guess they last two years. overall though my discovery has been through its paces and owes me nothing! you get a good'n or a bad'en like all cars I guess.
There all services items I thought you where going too say crank snaps or main bearing spin blocking the oil supplies Or oil pump on 2007-2008 Lol oh well
Hehe, I’m glad those are not on my list. But good that you mention them. I’m making a “my worst fear” video so need tips on those. Crank is a given for sure, just hope I’m one of the lucky ones.
The EGR valve - just blank them off - no need to even remove them - blanking kit easy fix $25 on e bay - that's what everyone who knows does - who changes just one wheel bearing???
Hey Joseph and thanks for watching. 👍 Blanking is an option but I have two arguments not to. First one is the obvious one, it’s not legal. Personally I want to keep my cars legal. 😱 Second reason, if you remove the butterfly valve and you get a runaway engine due to turbo failure, there is nothing that will stop it. And with a automatic gearbox I don’t like it due to the safety aspect. 🚗👨👩👧👧 So to others on here, do some research before blanking the EGR’s. For later models, 2007/08 and 2009 you need to do more than just adding the blanking plates and removing the butterfly valve. Not sure about 2007, so check the docs. 😉 Also if you got DPF, the EGR’s are used during the regenerating process. 🤓 When it comes to the wheel bearing, the front right had just been changed by the previous owner so you will have to ask him. 😉 It was one of the points in the ad when I bought it. 👍
Yeah, for hard core rack crawl and offroad you could do that. There is a manufacturar who make full rocksliders that will cover that area all the way to the chassies. I have, not mounted yet, a steel cover for the compressor which will be going on this summer. The tank will take a bit of a beating but the copressor is a much weaker point.
I really read only the half of the sentece. I was not sure what was best, as if you put somthing that's sticky, will it only gatter more stones maybe. I think I will do some ekstra checks and see if there is stones in between the tank and the frame and maybe once every 3 years tak it down without removing the air line and inspect it and maybe hit it with some brunox and paint. 🙂
Hey, not that I know of, they used to back in the good old 90s I think. We don’t get any of the cool Toyotas here anymore. Just the boring cars. Land Cruiser, Prado version, and Hilux is the most exciting ones. You can get the Arctic Truck versions of the Hilux or LC, which is cool. 😊
@@LandRoverDrive yes, however after doing some troubleshooting I found that it was a corroded connector associated with the hatch release and a bad ground. After cleaning both things are working great.
Yeah, air suspension ads another layer of problems. But that said, I'm running with the orignal springs, if they had been coils they would have been rusted away or broken off by now so I'm not sure what is best. If you have a fault code reader you can reset most of the faults out on the trip if you would get some issues so I feel pretty safe. A blown bag is probably the main major thing or another major leak issues. 🙂 Overland build is starting soon. 😉
I always wanted a Discovery. My friend bought a 2002 LR discovery and it’s having a overheating issue. He changed to Rad, water pump and thermostat and it still overheat In short trips. I told him to get rid of it.
Disco 2 is not the best build that Land Rover did. The D3 is much better and the D1 is so much simpler. The D2 V8 has an overheating issues so the TD5 would be the better option I think. The D3 V8 is a rock solid engine and I wish I had that instead of the TDV6. 🙂
What would be the fun in that? 😂😂 When you get a brand bug I think you stuck in it for life. 😅 Would love an old Land Cruiser as well, 70 series, but one car at a time. 👍
@@LandRoverDrive I have quite a lot of black smoke on overtaking, sudden acceleration like a kick down, but not if I drive smoothly, power seems ok so not sure
Tbh you pick any other make of 4x4 same age and miles, and guess what? they have things that fail to, even the mighty toyota has its failings, the secret is to keep on top of the maintanence, you cannot run them on a shoe string budget.
Mines 15 years old biggest problem I have now is rust 😂 sills are the worst area not sure how am going tackle them they rot under that plastic cover even more so if side steps are fitted so if anyone is thinking of buying a older LR3 check them sills
I have side steps on my 07 model. I've done one side took step and plastic trim off and treated the sill with rust converter. I'd been waiting for the nice weather to finish the other side, but now it's here I've not had the spare time. I did the passenger side first as I was replacing the air reservoir so did it while the tank was out. Good luck with yours 😊
I have seen some scary pictures of the sills. Mine had side steps when I bought it but took them off so haven’t been running with anything since then. I’m going to remove the plastic and do an inspection soon and crossing my fingers that it is not to bad. I hope you get yours sorted. 👍 A good welder should have it fixed in a day I think. 😊
@@LandRoverDrive I have seen panels that you apparently weld over the old so the landy guy said who was selling them on ebay ? but not looked fully into it .And not seen anyone tackle this correctly on youtube yet which am surprised at as there is loads of the earlier LR3 still about and running and for sale . I have only seen the corrosion where the steps are fitted on mine I have to remove the covers and steps to see how bad it is arrrrrr
@@LandRoverDrive The passenger side that I did wasn't too bad at all really. Just a quick whizz with a wire wheel in my cordless drill on a couple of light rust patches on the sill facing me where the brackets must have attracted moisture and obviously the lower edges being the worst, but no holes or big chunks of rust coming away. Hopefully yours won't be too bad, fingers crossed for you 🤞
Yeah, I have heard many mention that. I had mine jammed on but that is fixed. I hope the unit will hold for a long time if I just service the hand brake mechanism. 😅🤞
All common wear failures on all heavy vehicles. Suspension A-arm bushings fail, just too heavy...especially the front, wheel bearings fail for the same reason on all vehicles. If you do get a flat tire, the winch for the spare tire can fail after a single use, it is complete garbage (should last the life of the vehicle). That bushing for the driveshaft can only be seen removing the heat shield. The drive shaft bearing if replacing the whole drive shaft, all parts are not created equal be cautious, and understand what you are ordering, FYI it is $300 -$500 for a shaft.
Yeah, something has to give, and bushings is a "simple" fix. Spare tire winch has been used only once since I got it, it still works but I had to tighten it up after a while as the wheels was moving around. I wan't to get a spare weel carrier at the back but cost a bit to much still. Don't remember the cost exactly for the shaft but I have a spare one laying around so I'm set for the next 3-4 years. The one I put on 4 years ago is still working as it should.
Discovery 5 is no better 88K k turbo fail 4k€ for new turbo only to be told I need a new engine to go with the new turbo 12 - 15k€ extra, want a 4x4 buy a Toyota
Oh no, I’m sorry to hear that. I don’t know the D5 at all but the turbo should hold a lot more than 88k no matter the usage. 200-250k I guess is what I would expect. 😊 I hope you get it sorted and a Toyota is definitely not a bad choice. 👍😊
Hehe, It comes into my mind now and again too. Wish I had the space and money to fix it up. But we will see what the time will bring. Another Discovery video just released. 😉👍
Why doesn’t Jeep or Ford or Toyota make a nice looking SUV like this? They all make them look like big ugly hatchbacks with sloped front ends and round back ends. What man wants a vehicle like that? I’m thinking of a Discovery but live on an island and don’t want to make so many trips to a mechanic. Guess I got to go with an old 4 door Wrangler?
Number 1 the air compressor should be serviced every 3 services its literally a 10 minute job to put new beads in and the rest is complete shit as there all wearing parts
I have more: suspension all around, bushings, air struts, electronics all over and the most expensive one: the engine. Thats why these things are dead cheap tpo buy compared to bulletproof Land Cruisers.
Hehe, that was a lot. My biggest fear is the engine and converter but crossing my fingers that they will hold. 😅 I haven’t had any electrical issues so far, known on wood. 😊 About 12500 pounds for a 2008 mod in Norway.
4.4 V8 by far if what I have read about it is correct. Only problem with it is it’s fuel consumption, it’s a thirsty engine. 😊 In Norway there are almost no LR3’s, that he the V8, almost all are Discovery 3’s with its 2.7 TDV6.
@@LandRoverDrive It’s been proven Simon, that over time a petrol engine vehicle will cost less to run including fuel costs. This is because of the extra maintenance needed with Diesel engines. Also the original cost of the vehicle overall is less. Sure, a Diesel engined vehicle might get you twice the distance with a standard sized tank and cost a bit less at the pump but it’s false economy to say a petrol engined car costs more. I will make a coffee now and await the barrage of contradictions. Cheers 👍🏻🙏🏽😷🦘
@@grahameroberts8109 Coffee in hand but I’m not going to contradict you. I have actually just learned this, in the past year, and it makes so much sense when you start to think about it. The petrol engine is a much simpler design and less things that could fail. We got discussing this when my father in law bought a new Subaru with the 2.5 petrol. Was strange to me at first but after some research it’s made sense. 😊
Hehe, yep, mine jammed on this year. Just got it fixed a month ago by manually unjamming it and replacing shoes and all the mechanical parts. 😅 Glad I didn’t need to get a new EPB-module.
Hehe, but I would say you were wrong. 😊 I’m driving on the original shocks from 2007, how many steel spring cars could say the same? 🤔 Remember the 2.7tonn weight. 😉 Air is actually super reliable if you service it. The reason for the compressor failing is my lack of services, and the air tank was me not checking it after off-roading and a rock was stuck between it and the chassis scraping away. So I will say it will fail on most cars because most people don’t bother to service it. 👍
Such a shame, carrying a Landrover badge, Landrover since 1948, it's just a crap SUV from TATA. Pose mobile for shopping, picking kids up. All farmers, builders etc who work a vehicle for a living and don't want any down time, buy a Toyota Hilux or Land Cruiser. That's why Toyota Hilux hold their value and these big daft SUVs don't, certain age, milage, just a barrel of grief. If you are going to have one of these, buy a brand new one, take it back under warranty, soon as that warranty runs out, bin it off.
Hehe I’m not going to start a Toyota vs Land Rover debate here. 😅 I love all, or almost, all cars, but with a hand of favorites and a brand in particular that I ended up on liking more than others. For a family car, a daily drive, a overlander and a off-roader all in one car the Discovery is really hard to beat. For a farmers work truck I would go for something a bit simpler and rugged like the cruiser. And I would definitely have driven a AT37 Cruiser, man that is an epic car. And I would not say no to a double cab 70 series. 👍😊 I would recommend getting a well serviced “TATA suv” that is some years old so that the major price drop is done. 7 years with the discovery and the price drop is about 130 000 NOK (10 000£) - Not bad for any car I would say. But I can only speak for Norwegian prices. 😊 Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍 Makes this channel more interesting.
@@LandRoverDrive Series Landrovers, 101 Forward Controls, Defenders, Toyota 40, 50 and 60 series and the Nissan Patrol GQ Y60 TD42 inline 6 (an engine that is the benchmark, getting rare now, as most get shipped to Africa) all my faves, I particularly like the new Landcruiser short wheel base van in black, steel wheels, modern yet simple smart design, utter reliability.
@@richardburns5925 All great cars. 👍😊 I wish I could own them all. I had to sell my 2000 Defender this year due to not having time and money to keep up with the rust repairs sadly.

Air dryer cap is a good one, and yeah you could fix it. I drove too long with failure so I thought it was best to just to the replacement as I did not know the conditions of the piston and seals. With a new one I knew it would last for at least 7 more years. 🙂 Will try it out next time and do a service on the dryer it self. Ash try, I forgot that one... I have jammed it shut so have totally forgotten about it.
didnt even talk about the parking break😅
great video!
Hehe, I got a whole series about it. 😂😂
FWIW, our list includes the EPB, EGR valves, fuel filter, passenger seat airbag sensor, boot switch and the rear wheel hubs - which let go all of a sudden...
Hi Tim, I haven’t had the rear bearings fail yet, 😅, not sure how long they’re supposed to last. Mines at 235 000km now and still rolling fine. Air bag sensor and boot switch is not on my list either, yet. 😂 I have the manual release but haven’t gotten around to mounting it. Best, Simon.
@@LandRoverDrive maybe too many boats getting towed...
I would not buy a vehicle from any company knowing all the thing that will soon fail, these items should be addressed before it leaves the lot, I am on the verge of buying a Land Rover but not not now, thanks for the advice.
Just need to learn how to fix it and you would be set. 👌😂
Alternator, I've seen a few D3's catch fire becuase of alternator faults. Luckily I have a D3 V8 so don't have to worry about engine issues :-)
I will cross my fingers. 😅😅 I would have loved to have tried the LR3 with a V8 just to feel the difference. Super solid engine so I think it would maybe be worth it despite the fuel consumption. 👍😊
love your videos btw
Thank you! Always great to hear and there is much more to come. 🤙 Simon
I’ve not had the air tank or the centre bearing (yet). Maybe the air tank corrosion is location/weather dependent. I think air struts and front lower control arms are more common than air tank and centre bearing.
Okay, yeah maybe. 🤔 Location and road conditions probably has a lot to say. And usage I would think. Control arms is a given. 😅 Air tank is definitely a salty roads problem like all the other rust issues we see here in Norway. From what I have learned there is a bit of salt on the roads in the UK as well. I had a rock get between the tank and the chassis after off-roading and I’m pretty sure it speeded up the whole process. 😊
With all it's gremlins I still love my 2008 Discovery 3 SE V8 🇬🇧👍
👍😊 Good to hear I’m not alone. 🤙 Jealous of that V8 😉
@@LandRoverDrive Thanks 😊 I do love my 4.4 V8. Don't think they offered the diesel engine here in the state's.
Almost the opposite here in Norway, mostly 2.7TDV6 and little to none V8’s. If I was to change it would be for one with a V8.
Thanks for the video mate. Wouldve been better if you mentioned how much you spent for those parts.
Yeah, will see If I can make a separate video about that. Don’t think I have everything but I have a bit of the parts orders and the work orders. 😅
I have a 2008 RRS 3.8 tdv8 basically same car as the disco 3 and yes all the same issues. Owned for 7 years and so far I have changed EGR valves, prop shaft , alternator, 2 batteries, gearbox torque converter, front lower wishbones but NO problem with air suspension parts yet !😉 LOVE THE CAR THOUGH 😂😂💪……..air conditioner condenser has just failed!!🥴
Hehe, there is always someting. Converter, that is on my "I wish it will never happen" list. 😅😅 Would be an expensive fix here in Norway. 2008 RRS really looks great. TDV8 would have been a good upgrade for the D3.
@@LandRoverDrive for the convertor, is there any way of verifying if it will brake? Thanks!
The reason trucks are supposed to drain their air tanks daily is to get rid of any water in the tank, that’s what causes the tank to rust.
Hey Steven, do the truck have a drain plug? I noticed there was a plug on old air tank but not on the new. Never drained or heard of anyone draining it on the Discovery. Min rusted on the inside against the chassies as a rock, from a off-road day, had jammed in between the tank and the chassies. But good point, why you should drain your air compressor tank as well. Thanks for watching! 👍🙂
All vehicles have wheel bearing failures, EGR failures, compressor failures. Not just Land Rovers. My vehicle is a TD4 with 182000 miles, that's not bad ,things will wear with age.
So true, a lot of things on here is common failures. Made a seperate video of all the things that has failed in the past 7 years.
Bra video! 👏🏼 Men har du sagt A, må du si B, og sikkert C også!
Kjør Part 2. Kan jo nevne bytte av oljepumpe ved regreimskifte, baklukeaktuator osv osv osv. 😅
Hehe, kan bli mange bokstaver til slutt. 😅😅 Har faktisk ikke bytte oljepumpa, men også usikker om jeg har forsterket type eller ikke. 😱 Bakluke har jeg ikke tenkt på. Ser flere installere en backup, mulig jeg må se nærmere på den løsningen. 😊
Og takk forresten. 👍😊
yeah your correct, but just to add to your list. #6 lower front control arms, #7 turbo # front and rear suspension bushings, brake lines, oil pump if old style, thermostat, gearbox, and electric handbrake and the front diff because of the old style diff breather filter.. apart from that should be ok, good luck, p.s love my discovery 3
Thanks for the info! I love my Disco too. 🙂 Some good points there. Check out my full review of the Discovery wich came out after this video. Has some of the things you mention. Need to check my diff breaters.. 😅
Funnily enough I’ve just had four of these done with the last month!!
Hehe, sorry for laughing, but what are the odds. 🙂 Hope it's working as it should now.
@@LandRoverDrive I did laugh when watching it! But yeah she’s running proper!
@@MainSpaceGIGS Good to hear! 👍🙂
I have had issues with my Tie Rods- so many Tie Rods. But I am running Larger tires. I would say the tank is more weather dependent- I Live near Washington DC and it has been fine for me- Not much snow or salt. Overall, My front suspension is robustly fragile- I would imagine it would be from the larger 4.4 V8 and Larger tires (not to mention off-roading/minor rock crawling etc)-
Weather and salt for sure. I guess the bigger tires is a big factor too. My front steering rods has been on for 6 years now and is starting to fail. Rear tie rods has been on for 5 years and still working as it should. I run "origigna" tires size or narroer so I guess they would last longer. Rock crawl i would guess puts a lot of strain on the undercarriage componets duo to the tire grip, angles and V8 torque. 🙂 I envy that V8 for sure. 👍
I have had my d3 for 9 years and 4 of those things have failed. Not sure if one of the previous owners have replaced the hubs. The bushes on the suspension arms also go regularly.
Still one of the best cars there are
How far has it driven? I change one hub at 100 000km and it’s still good and I’m passing 230 000km 👍
That's why the discovery 2 I drive has coil springs. Wheel bearings is normal.
Coils is a safe bet but they would have been broken a long time ago if I had them. Remember I’m running on original springs from 2008. 🤙😊
Hi buddy and what mileage is your disco at before you start thinking of changing out your engine oil pump ? Saw on other TH-cam videos that the oil pumps fail on a 2.7 tdi landy as well
Hey, I’m just over 200k km and I’m actually waiting for a quotation for timing belt, oil pump and a water pump change. 😊 I’m not sure when it starts to fail but the best way to check is to measure the oil pressure against the original specs. 👍
okay 👍
@LandRoverDrive Does it mean you have never changed the timing belts and oil pump? That's interesting
Thank you man...
I appreciate it...👌🏻🙂
You are more than welcome. 👍😊 Thanks for watching. 🤙

You're Truly a Gentleman 👌🏻
Thank you
Greetings from

Thank you for that. Wish you the best. 👍😊

🤗🤗
Thanks!!!!
Your welcome. 👍😊
The revs go up and down while driving. What could be the cause of this? As this makes the car not to have power
If it’s not the EGR’s that is going bad and it’s when the driveline is under load it could be the torque converter. But with not have power I would probably start with checking the EGR valves.
How about rear main oil seal on the diesel engin.
I haven’t had that issue, is it common? 🤓
Of a discovey 3 is making noise when turning like a gruu gruu noise whhat could be the problme
Have you checked the steering fluid level? If it's not that maybe the pump or the steering rack. :)
no.5 wheel bearings? mine are an annual event thats for sure. seem to alternate left to right, so guess they last two years. overall though my discovery has been through its paces and owes me nothing! you get a good'n or a bad'en like all cars I guess.
Every two years? 😱 Which brand are you using and are you running big wheels and/or spacers? 🤔 Mine’s been on there for 8 years now.
As is said in Australia : if you want to go to the outback, take a Landrover, if you want to come back take a Toyota....
Hehe, saw this now. Well, would be nice to see a 80 series vs the Defender touring test series for sure. 😊
theres a knock the happens sometimes when im going 15mph and finishing a turn, what could it be?
Hey, I'm not sure. Have you figured it out? Sorry for the late reply.
Good list but you can easily double it.
Yeap, easy.. 😅😅
Yes make more
Thank you Len. 👍😊 Appreciate it.
There all services items I thought you where going too say
crank snaps
or main bearing spin blocking the oil supplies
Or oil pump on 2007-2008
Lol oh well
Hehe, I’m glad those are not on my list. But good that you mention them. I’m making a “my worst fear” video so need tips on those. Crank is a given for sure, just hope I’m one of the lucky ones.
The EGR valve - just blank them off - no need to even remove them - blanking kit easy fix $25 on e bay - that's what everyone who knows does - who changes just one wheel bearing???
Hey Joseph and thanks for watching. 👍 Blanking is an option but I have two arguments not to. First one is the obvious one, it’s not legal. Personally I want to keep my cars legal. 😱 Second reason, if you remove the butterfly valve and you get a runaway engine due to turbo failure, there is nothing that will stop it. And with a automatic gearbox I don’t like it due to the safety aspect. 🚗👨👩👧👧 So to others on here, do some research before blanking the EGR’s. For later models, 2007/08 and 2009 you need to do more than just adding the blanking plates and removing the butterfly valve. Not sure about 2007, so check the docs. 😉 Also if you got DPF, the EGR’s are used during the regenerating process. 🤓 When it comes to the wheel bearing, the front right had just been changed by the previous owner so you will have to ask him. 😉 It was one of the points in the ad when I bought it. 👍
helpful
Glad to hear that! 👍🙂 It's the main reason why I make these kind of videos. 🙂 Thanks for letting me know. 👍
Such an optimist! lol
True 😅😅 Someone got to be 🤙😊
Is it not worth protecting the air tank with something like Lanoguard or rust inhibitor?
Yeah, for hard core rack crawl and offroad you could do that. There is a manufacturar who make full rocksliders that will cover that area all the way to the chassies. I have, not mounted yet, a steel cover for the compressor which will be going on this summer. The tank will take a bit of a beating but the copressor is a much weaker point.
I really read only the half of the sentece. I was not sure what was best, as if you put somthing that's sticky, will it only gatter more stones maybe. I think I will do some ekstra checks and see if there is stones in between the tank and the frame and maybe once every 3 years tak it down without removing the air line and inspect it and maybe hit it with some brunox and paint. 🙂
They sell Toyota 4Runners in Norway? :)
Hey, not that I know of, they used to back in the good old 90s I think. We don’t get any of the cool Toyotas here anymore. Just the boring cars. Land Cruiser, Prado version, and Hilux is the most exciting ones. You can get the Arctic Truck versions of the Hilux or LC, which is cool. 😊
ok soo where are the additional three things then??
Not following? Long time since I made this one. 😅 Wasn't it five?
WOW RED discovery3 very nice good
Thank you! 👍😊
Didn’t mention the rear hatch.
Hey John, did you mean the actuator issue? I haven't had that yet luckily. :) Will mount a manual release for it this year. 👍
@@LandRoverDrive yes, however after doing some troubleshooting I found that it was a corroded connector associated with the hatch release and a bad ground. After cleaning both things are working great.
i was planning to buy this vehicle but i changed my mind
It's not a car for everyone but I do love it and most who get's it end up loving it too. 🙂
What about the hand break?? My just start to scream!
🙂
So basically the only real problem is the air suspension :)
... and for overland build I'll replace it with coil springs any way :)
Yeah, air suspension ads another layer of problems. But that said, I'm running with the orignal springs, if they had been coils they would have been rusted away or broken off by now so I'm not sure what is best. If you have a fault code reader you can reset most of the faults out on the trip if you would get some issues so I feel pretty safe. A blown bag is probably the main major thing or another major leak issues. 🙂 Overland build is starting soon. 😉
the first thing that will surely fail is your check book....
First thing to do is to throw you check book away so you can't spend all your money. 👍🙂
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you! 😀
I always wanted a Discovery. My friend bought a 2002 LR discovery and it’s having a overheating issue. He changed to Rad, water pump and thermostat and it still overheat
In short trips. I told him to get rid of it.
Disco 2 is not the best build that Land Rover did. The D3 is much better and the D1 is so much simpler. The D2 V8 has an overheating issues so the TD5 would be the better option I think. The D3 V8 is a rock solid engine and I wish I had that instead of the TDV6. 🙂
So why not just buy a Landcruiser?
What would be the fun in that? 😂😂 When you get a brand bug I think you stuck in it for life. 😅 Would love an old Land Cruiser as well, 70 series, but one car at a time. 👍
EGR can’t fail when it’s blanked👍
True, but it can fail the car on MOT day. 😊👍
does your Disco smoke black smoke when you accelerate all of the sudden?
It can have some black smoke if the engine is very cold. Are you having issues? 🙂
@@LandRoverDrive I have quite a lot of black smoke on overtaking, sudden acceleration like a kick down, but not if I drive smoothly, power seems ok so not sure
@@Robert-uq3wc First guess would be the intercooler hose, but with no loss of power I would not bet on it. But it is worth a check.
Hello! Can you send me LR disco 3 2.7 v6 hse (automatic) service manuals?
Answered you on the other comment. 👍😊
@@LandRoverDrive can you please send it also to me? I tried to find it in the comments section but without any luck! Thank you for sharing :)
Tbh you pick any other make of 4x4 same age and miles, and guess what? they have things that fail to, even the mighty toyota has its failings, the secret is to keep on top of the maintanence, you cannot run them on a shoe string budget.
I totally agree. Gotta put some love into them so they will keep up with the usage. 👍🙂
Mines 15 years old biggest problem I have now is rust 😂 sills are the worst area not sure how am going tackle them they rot under that plastic cover even more so if side steps are fitted so if anyone is thinking of buying a older LR3 check them sills
I have side steps on my 07 model. I've done one side took step and plastic trim off and treated the sill with rust converter.
I'd been waiting for the nice weather to finish the other side, but now it's here I've not had the spare time. I did the passenger side first as I was replacing the air reservoir so did it while the tank was out. Good luck with yours 😊
I have seen some scary pictures of the sills. Mine had side steps when I bought it but took them off so haven’t been running with anything since then. I’m going to remove the plastic and do an inspection soon and crossing my fingers that it is not to bad. I hope you get yours sorted. 👍 A good welder should have it fixed in a day I think. 😊
@@powervolt748 Good to have one side done at least. I have done none. 😅 Need to get to it soon. Was it bad?
@@LandRoverDrive I have seen panels that you apparently weld over the old so the landy guy said who was selling them on ebay ? but not looked fully into it .And not seen anyone tackle this correctly on youtube yet which am surprised at as there is loads of the earlier LR3 still about and running and for sale . I have only seen the corrosion where the steps are fitted on mine I have to remove the covers and steps to see how bad it is arrrrrr
@@LandRoverDrive The passenger side that I did wasn't too bad at all really.
Just a quick whizz with a wire wheel in my cordless drill on a couple of light rust patches on the sill facing me where the brackets must have attracted moisture and obviously the lower edges being the worst, but no holes or big chunks of rust coming away. Hopefully yours won't be too bad, fingers crossed for you 🤞
parking break will also fail.
Yeah, I have heard many mention that. I had mine jammed on but that is fixed. I hope the unit will hold for a long time if I just service the hand brake mechanism. 😅🤞
All common wear failures on all heavy vehicles. Suspension A-arm bushings fail, just too heavy...especially the front, wheel bearings fail for the same reason on all vehicles. If you do get a flat tire, the winch for the spare tire can fail after a single use, it is complete garbage (should last the life of the vehicle). That bushing for the driveshaft can only be seen removing the heat shield. The drive shaft bearing if replacing the whole drive shaft, all parts are not created equal be cautious, and understand what you are ordering, FYI it is $300 -$500 for a shaft.
Yeah, something has to give, and bushings is a "simple" fix. Spare tire winch has been used only once since I got it, it still works but I had to tighten it up after a while as the wheels was moving around. I wan't to get a spare weel carrier at the back but cost a bit to much still. Don't remember the cost exactly for the shaft but I have a spare one laying around so I'm set for the next 3-4 years. The one I put on 4 years ago is still working as it should.
Discovery 5 is no better 88K k turbo fail 4k€ for new turbo only to be told I need a new engine to go with the new turbo 12 - 15k€ extra, want a 4x4 buy a Toyota
Oh no, I’m sorry to hear that. I don’t know the D5 at all but the turbo should hold a lot more than 88k no matter the usage. 200-250k I guess is what I would expect. 😊 I hope you get it sorted and a Toyota is definitely not a bad choice. 👍😊
I think often about your td5..............😥
Hehe, It comes into my mind now and again too. Wish I had the space and money to fix it up. But we will see what the time will bring. Another Discovery video just released. 😉👍
mine eats parking sensors
Hehe, Yeah mine have a taste for them as well. Actually going to mention them in the next video. 👍😊
Why doesn’t Jeep or Ford or Toyota make a nice looking SUV like this? They all make them look like big ugly hatchbacks with sloped front ends and round back ends. What man wants a vehicle like that? I’m thinking of a Discovery but live on an island and don’t want to make so many trips to a mechanic. Guess I got to go with an old 4 door Wrangler?
Saw this now, the Wrangler is cool What did you end up with? The new Land Cruiser is cool I think.
Wheel bearing😂 the car’s weight is 2.5 ton ofcourse the bearings will fail more quickly
😂😂 So I’m not wrong 🤗🤗
@@LandRoverDrive It’s normal wear, it’s not a problem it’s logic
CRANKSHAFT!!!
On my worst fear list for sure. I’m hoping regular oil changes will do the trick and keep it going. 👍😊
@@LandRoverDrive And replacing the oil pump regularly.
Number 1 the air compressor should be serviced every 3 services its literally a 10 minute job to put new beads in and the rest is complete shit as there all wearing parts
I hate to say it, but i never have serviced my compressor. 😅😅 Where do you get the beads? 🤓
I have more: suspension all around, bushings, air struts, electronics all over and the most expensive one: the engine. Thats why these things are dead cheap tpo buy compared to bulletproof Land Cruisers.
Hehe, that was a lot. My biggest fear is the engine and converter but crossing my fingers that they will hold. 😅 I haven’t had any electrical issues so far, known on wood. 😊 About 12500 pounds for a 2008 mod in Norway.
@@LandRoverDrive Whats the safest engine choice? I will trade performance for a bulletproof engine any day.
4.4 V8 by far if what I have read about it is correct. Only problem with it is it’s fuel consumption, it’s a thirsty engine. 😊 In Norway there are almost no LR3’s, that he the V8, almost all are Discovery 3’s with its 2.7 TDV6.
@@LandRoverDrive
It’s been proven Simon, that over time a petrol engine vehicle will cost less to run including fuel costs. This is because of the extra maintenance needed with Diesel engines. Also the original cost of the vehicle overall is less. Sure, a Diesel engined vehicle might get you twice the distance with a standard sized tank and cost a bit less at the pump but it’s false economy to say a petrol engined car costs more. I will make a coffee now and await the barrage of contradictions. Cheers 👍🏻🙏🏽😷🦘
@@grahameroberts8109 Coffee in hand but I’m not going to contradict you. I have actually just learned this, in the past year, and it makes so much sense when you start to think about it. The petrol engine is a much simpler design and less things that could fail. We got discussing this when my father in law bought a new Subaru with the 2.5 petrol. Was strange to me at first but after some research it’s made sense. 😊
6. Electronic parking brake.
Hehe, yep, mine jammed on this year. Just got it fixed a month ago by manually unjamming it and replacing shoes and all the mechanical parts. 😅 Glad I didn’t need to get a new EPB-module.
LoL 😆
I would say first thing get rid of the air ride and switch to conventional shocks and struts
Hehe, but I would say you were wrong. 😊 I’m driving on the original shocks from 2007, how many steel spring cars could say the same? 🤔 Remember the 2.7tonn weight. 😉 Air is actually super reliable if you service it. The reason for the compressor failing is my lack of services, and the air tank was me not checking it after off-roading and a rock was stuck between it and the chassis scraping away. So I will say it will fail on most cars because most people don’t bother to service it. 👍
Still have a working air compressor in-tank I don't need
Such a shame, carrying a Landrover badge, Landrover since 1948, it's just a crap SUV from TATA. Pose mobile for shopping, picking kids up. All farmers, builders etc who work a vehicle for a living and don't want any down time, buy a Toyota Hilux or Land Cruiser. That's why Toyota Hilux hold their value and these big daft SUVs don't, certain age, milage, just a barrel of grief. If you are going to have one of these, buy a brand new one, take it back under warranty, soon as that warranty runs out, bin it off.
Hehe I’m not going to start a Toyota vs Land Rover debate here. 😅 I love all, or almost, all cars, but with a hand of favorites and a brand in particular that I ended up on liking more than others. For a family car, a daily drive, a overlander and a off-roader all in one car the Discovery is really hard to beat. For a farmers work truck I would go for something a bit simpler and rugged like the cruiser. And I would definitely have driven a AT37 Cruiser, man that is an epic car. And I would not say no to a double cab 70 series. 👍😊 I would recommend getting a well serviced “TATA suv” that is some years old so that the major price drop is done. 7 years with the discovery and the price drop is about 130 000 NOK (10 000£) - Not bad for any car I would say. But I can only speak for Norwegian prices. 😊 Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍 Makes this channel more interesting.
