Discovery II
| | Model of the car: | Discovery II | | | General comments: | I have 54K miles, the truck runs ok, it gives me 16.5 mpg on highway and 14..5 city. it rides very solid. during this past 2 years, I had to take it for repairs for a broken idle pulley (factory recall) and to fix the cooling system, leakage from the engine rear upper gaskets, brake sensor (could not take the gear box from P) also rear lights were inoperable. The truck is nice looking, and you can recognize one of them a mile away. the sound system is not what is shoud be for the price of the vehicle. andy honda civic comes with CD player, for LR it is extra. but overall, I give the truck an 7 out of ten rating. One thing dealers should stop doing is "glamourizing" this wagon, it is a working vehicle, not something for luxury. it is good for the country club, pulling the horse trailers, playing in the mud and taking the kids to school or shopping. it is just good transportation. To make the engine work to its potential, it is necessary to run 100% synthetic oil, K&N air filters and replace the
existing exhaust system with headers, high flow cat converters, and mufflers or resonators. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | high priced, dealers take you to the cleaners for any simple repair. | | | Previous car: | toyota 4runner, Ford bronco |
