In conjunction with the new transmission, the Discovery 4 was also equipped with the 'Drive Select' rotary gear shift I had the D3 with the 2.7 and found it adequate for towing, however ended up having a ECU power upgrade installed, as I found it lacking in low down torque.

On the road it feels like it too. It’s even difficult to split the two on sound. The 2.7-litre TDV6 is very popular as well and the auto box is smooth too.’ ‘On the down side, however, the maintenance bills can be pretty high. Some of the problems involve the wheel bearings, the suspension components and air compressor. They’ve since released a modified compressor from AMK, though, which replaces the original Hitachi ones.
