United Kingdom 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Auto Indus SilverDiscovery 3
New owner

Hi all,

Just joined after buying my first land rover.

A 55 plate D3 with 120k on the clock Embarassed

So far i'm really pleased and can't wait to try it off road.

I am however getting anxious about certain noises, though having never owned a land rover, or even a automatic for that reason I don't know whether these noises are normal?! Anyway so far really happy with the ride and can see why they're so loved by people.

I will probably stick a post in the right section for mechanical help as there's one or two whines that i'm worried about, dealer has given me a months warranty so may need help identifying issues from you guys before that warranty is up!

Any advice for first time D3 owners? Shocked

Legally a dealer has to give you three months warranty so take your time.

Thanks both.

I think i'm just over thinking some noises, perhaps here isn't the right section to ask, i'm sure its been discussed 1000 times somewhere else on here but it's like a groaning when I take my foot of the gas to break to decelerate ?

Thanks for the heads up about warranty, I may take it to a local specialist to have a look over who might be able to back my corner if something is wrong!

Hi everyone,

Just about to take delivery (next week) of a 2012 D4 HSE in bronze. Its got RSE but no headphones or remote (from auction) so I've got a few questions to ask in the electronics section. No doubt a lot more questions about mechanicals in the future!

A friend suggested I get on board here as you all come highly recommended.

Thanks for having me.

Turkey 

Hello everyone.

My name is Emre, from Turkey - Istanbul. I'm about to buy a 2010 Discovery 4 and was looking for some information about the cars, so found out about this forum. I have some questions regarding the car as it will be my first time owning a Land Rover, hope I could prove useful as you would also to me- and also soon I would like to join your ranks as a new owner. It will take about a week for me to buy one , so see you guys in the "my cars" section soon.

Happy readings.

Hi folks,

Prospective D4 owner here, registering to ask a few questions and learn from the wisdom of the disco3 community.

Looking forward to potential D4 ownership with excitement and some trepidation.
