Disco II V8 mpg

<< < (2/3) > >>

Range Rover Blues:
If the V8 is on the later EFi, (is it THOR or Genimi :-k) it might be better, P38s were an improvement on the RRC so I'd imagine the Disco being the same.

Poor economy is an ealry symptom of cam wear/cam chain wear BTW.

I get similar (11-22) with no gas, autobox though  :huh:

Range Rover Blues:
I don't know if auto box makes that much difference, my sister's TDi is better than ours and hers is the auto.  Both our V8s are similar too.

Let's be honest, it's a LR, they'll never be economical!

Surely LR3 & 4's must be getting around the 25 (if not more) average  :-k
