Hi all, new to the forum but been on the disco one for a while, had a D3 on a 55 plate when the cam belt tension bolt sheared and the engine eat its self, so down to the question.. decided to get a rrs looking for around 09-10 with 3.0l as low milage as i can i have seen this.

I know from the past the the lower arm bushes wear, cam belt a must, on the D3 i blanked of the EGR is this all i should look for as well as a FSH? are the turbos an issue or just go for a well sorted pre 09, again road tax are they all £500+

Many thanks for the help in advance and im sure i will be posting silly questions.

Hi it seems the cranks can be suspect on the 3.0 if you search on here and disco3 but it is a bit hit and miss with no reason apparently for them to let go other than that pretty much the same as disco4 issues

You obviously didn`t watch When Teens Kill the other night about the Gumtree killers  Steve.

No must have missed that??

So having read through lots of posts, look at an 09-10 plate 3.6l v8 as getting a warrenty to cover a poss crank issue is a should i look for a fsh one or go for a sorted 2.7l?? Decision decision...
