What did you do with your Range Rover today

Had to cut the heads off the rear height sensor on the Bastid to get it off. Brass inserts in the plastic housing were turning . @RangeRoller dt has the same problem trying to get his off for me to replace my duff one.

I've cleaned up some earth connections 'just in case', is currently going to sleep, fingers crossed

I just spent the day getting mine ready for MoT tomorrow morning and the things gone dead. All stupid dash lights the whole nine yards. It’s on charge now so will see if that works tomorrow. Can’t believe it after taking the boot lamps out and turning the interior lights off to stop a drain while the doors were open.

1am and finally after charging the battery I find the battery negative connection has broken loose. I swear I checked it earlier. Reconnected and boom she fires into life again, all the onscreen errors are gone it’s as though nothing happened.

Thanks, she’s there now. Fingers arms and legs are crossed but I did have a good check over yesterday and everything looked decent.

MrGorsky's was a bit loose. I fixed it making a little copper sleeve to fit over the post from some pipe I had lying around.

That sounds like a good idea, some copper pipe will be sourced and fitted. Great tip.

Just passed her MoT, 12 months worry free motoring ahead. Apart from the little niggles that may arise from time to time. Hope everyone else has a good day I’m off for a drive in the rain, after I’ve walked the dog.

That gave out around the time 7 out of 8 cylinders had low compression.

Tipping it down today!

Might go out and play in the puddles

Another new spill pipe. I should have done the lot when I did the glow plugs, but didn't.

Sure is a great feeling when that ok ticket comes through

Hopefully fixed a leak into the interior light above the dash....
Pictures won't upload.... Shïtty Internet crap..
Oops it did??

The plate that supports the sunroof motor sticks out into the sunroof space and the water leaking past the seal gets drawn into it and onto the plate and then onto your bloody gear selector board!!!! Aahh.. Sport, no sport, sport, no sport.....
Then I saw this...

I nearly threw it out....

hef19898 · Oct 3, 2020

Nothing.

Maybe something is off, didn't even order parts today...

tomcat59alan · Oct 4, 2020

Just checked the anchors and that they haden't washed away.bloody rain.

Rubberknees · Oct 4, 2020

Just been checking oil, fluid levels, brake etc. Brake cap quite tight so lent over with pipe grips to loosen, as soon as I turn cap Beep Beep and another Beep. Panic what have I done. battery terminals ok, have I done something to fuse box. Go and see if car starts, gets to open door and notice all doors locked. What a plonker I always put keys in my pocket and as I have lent over must have pressed lock button and hence the beeps with door and bonnet being open. The old girl certainly likes to keep me sweating and have her little jokes

Just been out to see how many inches of water are in the footwell. Apparently none!!!
Instead i can see evidence it's been out on the pïss!!

Or more precisely the suspension is completely unlevel!!
