How To Use This Service Data: Introduction
Service data is designed to assist skilled technicians in the efficient repair and maintenance of Discovery vehicles.
Individuals who undertake their own repairs should have some skill and training, and limit repairs to components which could not affect the safety of the vehicle or its passengers. Any repairs required to safety critical items such as steering, brakes, suspension or supplementary restraint system should be carried out by a Land Rover Dealer. Repairs to such items should NEVER be attempted by untrained individuals.
