So I have an 02 disco II and there is an oil leak that I think is coming from the valve gaskets... On both sides!  Not a huge leak but I was about a quart low this last oil change..  My wife was driving it when the service engine light came on..  it did not go off after I changed the oil though..  It has never lit up before.. It has about 85,000miles on it which most are highway.  Any suggestions??  Has anyone takeen it to a dealership to get it serviced??  Cost??  Thanks in advance!

You have a Service Engine Soon this is a emission control failure
light (Yellow light).
You can have it scanned at a Auto Zone for free this will let you know what needs att:

Awesome thanks alot!!  What might the culprit be?? I am changing my air filter with a k'n tonight when it arrives. I think the old one is pretty clogged, I shook it out and it was pretty dirty..

No way to tell but O2 sensors are about due.

Buy all 4 02 sensors from Atlantic British while on sale, $59 a piece is a pretty good price.
