My Disco 2 has just hit. Milestone at 23 years old !

But you had better get some fuel in it if you want to make it really impressive:D.

I have owned her bout 4 weeks, previous single owner for 23 years bought and serviced it at Park Lane, London 1999. Did average 2500 miles each year and serviced and MOT’d on its anniversary.
Perfect inside, outside, and underneath

Confess I’m finding it difficult to navigate this site, or post a new thread, so I’ll do it here and hope someone notices it !
Weep from the Auto Transmission (I think, too far back for motor)
Managed to get under it (just !) but can find no level/fill plug.
What am I looking for and where ?
The larger circle ⭕️ show area damp with fluid, the smaller I where it appears to be worse and dripping where collected on pipes.

Then the green box top right, and away you go:).

Not sure when they did away with the dipstick on the HP22/24 box but its a right pain since they did. As I dont know the disco.
The front of the gearbox sump, you should find a similar plug to the drain you can see in your pics. If you take it out with the engine off, it will oil your arm and driveway so read up on the correct procedure on checking level and filling.

Ask in the disco section above and all you need will be explained:D.

I believe those pipe change to rubber at some point along thier route and they often start to weep at the rubber/connection.
Oil leak tracing really is best if you clean the whole area and check often to try and pinpoint it. A little oil goes along way:D.
