Just bought a Landrover Discovery -96 V8 and very happy so far (my first LR)
A few questions has arisen as i'm getting used to the vehcile.
1.
When i was going to fill her up for the first time – the “fuel lock” was quite tight and as i opened it i could hear/feel that the tank was pressure equalizing by sucking in air. After this some smoke started to come out from the tank (felt quite warm) – would this come from the engine?
I just picked-up the car and i fitted ~75L in her so i suppose she was pretty dry....however
Shouldn’t the tank “equalise” automatically?
Also – the smoke coming out –what could this be? Anything to worry about?
2. The engine becomes very very hot when driving ~20min to work (outside temp of ~26) and with speeds of 0>60. The temp gauge looks on the panel, its just when i exit the car i can hear it being very hot (ticking and twisting) and can hardly put my hand on the engine hood.
Is this normal?
3. Few teething with the Central lock, but i've found a few posts on that with regards so thanks for the help on that.
Appreciate any members thoughts
Otherwise the car run’s very well and is in very good order.
Cheers
Klas
