Hi yall, it's my first landy so i'll be needing some tips as time go's on, I have just bought a discovery td5 with the top spec its a really nice motor, can anyone tell me are thay prone to oil leaks if so were are the hot spots to look at? and are there any other things I should be looking for,

Thanks guys.
 
Welcome mate :)

Rocker cover gaskets fairly common I think, especially at rear of engine. There's s large tab in the gasket that's s pain to get seated correctly.
Other than that just check over generally, sump, front cover etc.

Fuel pressure regulators like to let go, l/h side of the engine as you look at it.

There's a good buyers guide on here, have a search and see how many faults mentioned you can find on yours ;)

Disco 2 is a great motor, get to know yours and keep it maintained you shouldn't have too many shocking surprises :D

Unless the rear chassis is rotten
