This 1997 Land Rover Discovery factory service and repair manual is built around this exact year, engine and trim lineup, so the torque values, clearances and diagnostic steps inside are the ones Land Rover published for your truck, not a figure borrowed from a nearby model year. It's written for the 4.0L V8 (VIN 2) gas engine, the powerplant code stamped on the block and referenced throughout the procedures.

Known issues on the 1997 Discovery. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers rear driveshaft couplings sold as service parts for this Discovery: couplings built outside the required engineering specification can show early joint separation, and if the resulting vibration warning is ignored the coupling can fail catastrophically, letting the driveshaft detach from the vehicle in motion with loss of drive and loss of transmission park function. The second covers the frontal air bag system, where chafing of a cruise control wire can overheat the steering wheel rotary coupler and cause the driver's air bag to deploy without warning, risking loss of vehicle control. Owners have filed 36 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind both systems are here.
From inspecting a rear driveshaft coupling for early separation to servicing the steering column wiring near the air bag coupler, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 1997 Discovery.
