Greetings. I'm new to Land Rovers and new to the site. Bought an '02 Disco II Kalahai about 4 months ago and a '98 Disco I about 2 months ago. The check engine light came on this weekend on the '98 right after I had it serviced at the quick oil change place. I think this is only a coincidence. They have been servicing the '02 since it was new and keep filters on hand for it. It currently has a tank full of mid grade fuel and has been running fine on it. I stopped by Auto Zone today to get the codes and it has a P0316. They also told me it said need plugs and wires. Any help with this code? I did put a bottle of Chevron Techron in today also.

engine misfire detected on startup (first 1000 revolutions) certainly an interesting code.
did you have them clear it? may have just been a hiccup

premium fuel only. Both of the truck.
If you want to do new wires, get the 8MM Magnacor wires. Don't use the OEM Bosch wires. You will be replacing them again within a year.

First start running the good gas, you will pick up nearly a mile per gallon and not carbon up your valve stems, which D1's are know to do.
Also if they are not using a factory filter, a Mobil 1 or a K&N 3001 oil filter, stop using theirs. Cheap oil filters let rovers loose oil trghe oil from the filter and pump giving you dry starts which can really hurt your engine.
