SOURCE: 1994 Land Rover Discovery oil light comes on after

My 1986 did the same thing, I droped the oil pan and found the oil pick up was almost completely clogged and the oil pan had 2" of sludge build up. I cleaned the pan and pick up, put it back together, flushed the engine with kero and now it has oil pressure and no oil lite.

SOURCE: transfer case oil change- 1999 Land Rover Discovery II

No need for a diagram, to drain the oil, there's a drain plug on the bottom of the transfer box, under the handbrake drum. To fill, the fill plug is about in line with the centre of the handbrake drum and to the left. I think both plugs are 1/2" square. Fill to overflow with Texaco Multi-Gear 75W/90R. Takes about 2L or so.

SOURCE: If the oil pump goes, is that a sign of my land

No just a sign of age. oil pump can be replaced. If you replace it before it goes out you will save the engine.

Oil light flickers and overheating

Sorry to say the oil light may be for low oil pressure, not necessarily low oil level. If the oil pressure is low, you are wearing out the bearings and engine parts at a very fast pace.

I have a 97 land rover discovery DS. How do I know if I need a new oil pump? Thank you

You need to check the oil pressure at the oil filter, why do you think you need an oil pump?

Oil pressure won't go higher after fixing all parts fan clutch radiator belt changing the oil with the oil filter & oil gasket still can not go higher the pressure the oil light stays on

It is possible the the oil pressure sensor could be bad.The next thing I would do if the light stays on is to hook an actual pressure guage in place of the oil sensor to get an actual pressure reading from the pump.If the pressure is low and doesn't rise when given gas then it could be a bad oil pump.But I would get the sensor tested by a local service station and then go from there.All electrical components can be tested in one form or another.

I have a 94 Land Rover Disco. Two weeks ago the check oil light come on, I checked the oil and it was full, I then checked all the other fluid levels, and they were fine. I then changed the oil, yet the...

either your pressure is low causing the light to come on , and dangerous to your engine , or the oil pressure sending unit is dead. It is just a small pressure switch that screws into the side of the engine block and reads the oil pressure. If the pressure is low , or the sensor is dead , the light comes on. Oil pressure sending units die a lot more often then oil pumps , and they are not expensive to buy , or hard to install. The hardest part of the job is actually locating on your engine. Its location should be easy to find out online.

Have you tried flushing the auto box oil through, and changing the filters? Could be low pressure causing it to stay low until the temp comes up and it expands slightly.

Oil Light Keeps Coming On

It could be an oil pressure sensor faulty, just giving off bad reading when the level is actually correct.

If you want to test the oil pressure sending unit, let me know. I can assist with that.

It could be that your engine oil pressure is indeed low -- how many miles on the engine?
