being proactive with the Discovery

Well I am going to try and be a bit proactive and change the parts on the car that is likely to die on me.
I know probably all of it Rolling with laughter but at least take a risk based approach.
Geoff did the gear box flush
NEw oil pump during belts changed
I have changed the rear lights because it kept going into limp mode, which appears to have cured that issue as no more standard bulbs.
Just ordered a new alternator from Steve at Advanced
Will have the EGRS blanked
Looks like the compressor is suspect from the posts on here so that is on the list.
Diagnostic tool

Is anything else prone to go more that other bits?

I thought about the EPB and intend to fit some new shoes and springs.
I forgot about the prop centre bearing, I do have a bit of slack in the drive train, when turning sharply at low speeds bit of a clunk from below. Thumbs Up

I have had one front wheel bearing changed on the OSF will plan to do the other side as well
