Another Newbie Question
Evening all again,
I've read a lot of comments on posts regarding having the belts changed on the Discovery 3 which our car has had done but for the life of me I cant remember whether it was imperative to get the water pump or the oil pump changed at the same time.
NJSSAm I Gammon or Woke ? - I neither know nor care.
2016 Discovery 4 Landmark
2011 Mercedes Benz SL350 (R230)
1973 MG B GT V8 - 3.9L John Eales engine, 5 speed R380 gearbox, since 1975.
1959 MGA roadster - 1.9L Peter Burgess Engine - 5 speed gearbox
Past LRs - Multiple FFRs, Discos & a Series I - some petrol, some diesel,
none Electric or H2 fuel cell - yet.
There are 10 types of people in this world: Those who understand binary, and those who don’t.

Certainly water pump, IMHO.
Some, not many, change the water pump too.

I’m sure that helped him

Iguana,
I was starting to wonder about NJSS's post whether I had missed something or not
Thanks for reassuring me, the water pump was replaced so that's one less thing to worry about at least
