What did you do with your Range Rover today

[Datatek]

Today I finally got replacement under trays through the post, on they went to cover up the oil leaks. Can't see them, they're not there........

Don't worry, when the under try is full, it will once again drip onto your drive.

Anyone know if you can depressurise one airbag with diag? Save me hunting

 

[Grrrrrr]

Just pull the line?!

Does it have the brass nut and olive on it?

No idea.. it's all back together i just need to do up the tie rod bolt at road height.. for extra space i thought about driving the wheel up the curb the jacking as necessary

Anyone know the correct torque for the upper and lower control arms? I've replaced the lower (the one with the height sensor) but I'm seeing 2 different values, one with and one without a further 90 degrees

As long as the arms are bolted to metal and not aluminium carriers, I'd do them as tight as I can so the bush center pièce doesn't move under a hard movement. If they are aluminum carriers I'd be searching until I get the correct torque

I’ve only got torque sheet for l322 td6 engine.

My Foxwell does but the wire isn't long enough to reach you
Measure the hub centre to wheel arch on the side you haven't touched then jack the side up that you have. Take the wheel off and use another jack to get the hub at the right height, simples.

EDIT: I've only got Rave to MY2010

Not sure what you mean by "upper" theres only 2 lowers 1 forward 1 back.

I don't know either! It's the land rover term

Thank you! It's the front lower arm i wish they could be consistent in the naming!
And it's the torque with a further 90.. that's flipping tight

Also, the page i read didn't say to discard the old nut and bolt. I wish they would make up their minds

I think its partly because they know you have either cut it off or beat the crap out of it cos its rusted in place or its just a CYA on their part.
I replaced my front prop and found out to late that I should have used new bolts, I didnt and its still there after 3 yrs.

Maybe in this case its because its so tight plus 90 that its been streched and it shouldnt be reused.

It came out without help!

You can use head bolts 3 times.. probably being over cautious

Bought her a nice new R/H front indicator cluster. Checked, double checked, checked again and bought the correct one.




Only I didn't. I bought the L/H but it's ok. It can go in the shed until needed
