Could buy me fender for £5k never misses a beat starts on the button every time. Been tweaked with a 300tdi and had a total overhaul
i know this may sound daft...but how do you select the lo range ?
is it just the "low" button to the right of the dash by hazzards ?
im only familiar with the diff lock and hi lo range selector of the discovery, could do with a guide on it on these and how to fully test it ??
No idea on a manual, I'm afraid. The current owner should be able to show you though - or is should be in the owners manual which he'll probably have if it's as good as you say.
I imagine the dash will tell you when it's in lo range though.
If you get it dont forget the PICS !!!!!!!yes the manual is there, i did ask, to be honest he said im not too sure ive never off roaded it, same as he wasnt sure about the cruise control
thanks jerry all understood, my mot tester mate and range rover owner, is picking me up after work to take me up there and give it a good look over and il be driving it home if he gives it the thumbs up quite excited
hes recently replaced the air suspension for springs on his classic,and knows a fair bit about these having had lots through his garage so im confident hel give it a good mechanical look over
ive bought it and shes sat outside
mate looked it over and said its lovely couldnt fault it, all the air bags have been replaced at some point he said all the air bags look new and really good, had a good look underneath and checked the engine over and said shes a goodun and a bargain
cruise control works superb on a 8 mile motorway stint having cruise control on, the sound system is superb too,a lovely smiley drive home and very happy with it,it looks the buisness !!!
il give it a good clean tomorrow and post some pics
appriciate the help and info posted
also- im not sure if its chipped or what chip etc,but on the right hand side of the engine up in the corner, its got some sort of programmable tuning box thing, have no idea what and he wasnt too sure himself, its dissconected at the moment and it was on there when he got it, any ideas ? il post pics tomorrow and have a look through the history to see if theres anything relating to it[/quot
I would try to resist connecting the power box if thats what it is and so prolong the life of your engine and gearbox.They are not that slow once they are warmed up.:welcome2:
ive got an e30 bmw 325i sport for speed didnt buy the rangey for that, just to get from a to b in winter and comfort ,and preserve the bmw from salt and ice etc
would it just work if re connected ? spose i just out to investigate it somewhen and find out exactly what it is and does , i take it its not factory ?
but yes, i found it drives lovely as it is, feels more nippy and repsonsive than my discovery, and the manual i find it much better and enjoyable to drive with, is the bmw diesel engine in these better than the 300tdi engine? whats the differences ?
yes shes a manual !! il snap some pics of it, any idea what its likley to be/are there different ones/brands or all the same ?
superb enjoyable drive to work and back, cruise control on that motorway makes such a nice difference in terms of relaxing and easy on the feet
just having a morning cup of tea them im out on it to clean inside and out and take some pics
