What type transmission fluid goes in 1996 land rover discovery?

Sounds like you are in need of a transmission rebuild.

Hi welcome main problems are the abs valves causing the 3 dash lights (search 3 amigos online) a really badly sited compressor can cause air suspension models to fail giving the bags a slow leak the V8 is a solid engine but can have radiator expansion tank and cap failures
the other issue is electrics windows and door looms are problematic

Check transmission fliuid level.
Transmissions work by having proper pressures. If the fluid level is too low there will not be enough pressure to engage it in gear.
Then find your leak and fix it.

oil from the pcv valve going into your intake manifold will cause a gasket to swell. but it should not be to the point where it's noticeable. you should probably replace the intake manifold gasket at this point.

check the wiring connections from the battery to the solenoid to the starter. also check the ground from the engine to the chassis

Valora esta ayuda; buena suerte.

it is a green coolant from land rover it is ethylene glycol based coolant. mixed 50/50

check to see if them wires are of the gearbox solenoid you want get drive or reverse if its not connected.
