Got my new disco pursuit last week and yes I have noticed the clattering noise..... and it is an irritation if I dont have the radio on. certainly when I test drove one last september (06) that noise wasnt there - so a bit disappointed. Not sure if the noise is normal or a problem with 08MYs. A number of you here have reported this issue but is there anyone who owns a 08MY and notices none of this clattering noise? If so I will get it checked by the dealer

I picked up my new Disco 3 GS auto last week , and having covered 300 miles, I do notice a metallic clatter under load. Its the 08 MY.
Having read this thread will change to BP or Shell for my next tank full. (First tank was Jet).
Not too concerned. Its a new engine, so I'll give it a few K miles, and just enjoy the car. Thers a lot to enjoy after all. I'llpost an update once I've filled up and used it! (BTW, trip computer tells me 29.9 MPG on its first tank, mixed driving).
