OK Landy Lovers, opinions sought! I have a lovely 2011 4.4 V8 L322 Range Rover with 108,000 on the clock and want to change it. It has always had a LR used warranty on it until last year when it clicked over 100k so it has never gone without! I...

Took my F2 for his MOT - passed without even a sniff of an advisory.

... of the wife or the car?

Look it up here (don't buy it from here - silly expensive!) https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/parts/index/hierarchy/id/4.55800.56225/brand/land-rover/

Fuel Injectors inside the rocker box are another idea in the same class, if it or its pipe/connection leaks fuel goes into the sump and dilutes the lubricating oil and you will know nowt about it unless you check the dip stick very often.

Yes. If its for ULEZ, the 4.0 is ok, but I think there is an error for a 4.6 as the numbers are stupid high by comparison and can't have been correct. Either that or the 4.0 is wrong and way too low. I don't think anyone really cared about Nox...

Hi everyone! I can't find a front axle cv joint that fits my 2004 Freelander TD4, 82kw, manual transmission. Is there a part number OEM that fits my car? Please see my old cv joint.

Today's bit of "Kevage" is a Henry Hoover in full working order. :)

Thanks for the reply and info my man. ECU is getting sent off to ECUTesting tomorrow, the more i look into the issues, the more it seems that the ECU is at fault. Atleast in a week or so ill have it back and well know for sure :) not to say the...

Quick update: Yes I can be bovva'd I have a dti and/or a digital vernier to measure how far the cam/pushrod/rocker pushes the valve down. :) I wonder if there is a table of "if it does this amount of valve opening then it means its an"XYZ"...

There is no easy answer here. It really comes down to how much money you want to spend and what your actual goals are. Now I'm no camper expert or overlander. Although I do go camping and do go green laning. Price is obviously the biggest...

The clutch bracket does indeed have a bracket for a microswitch (which is generally unused - I guess a legacy thing from earlier versions of the HDC etc)

Welcome! Apart from rust, rust and any more rust. Low mileage may imply a lot of sitting aroun so check age of tyres even if they look good also - but if well looked after despite no service records could be worth a look. Beat advice is to get a...

Got mine from here on t’bay: £49.99 with enough material to do the roof and the door inserts. Plus two cans of glue good for 120 degrees C (IIRC). 👍🏻

I have the possibility for a 2006 Td5 90 with just 50.000km As this would be my first defender, what would you check on the car? Visually... Technical... Bad thing : lookup in VIN database does show the car without any service record.

That isn't the reason why the military stuck with the 300Tdi. Come on have you seen how complex a modern tank or any other army vehicle (or aircraft is)!! Being simple had no bearing on it. As I understand it, the Td5 passed all of the military...

Weather today is terrible wind thick fog and rain so decided to do a bit of baking, cheese bread to go with home made tomato soup, and a bun to Finnish

Don't be so harsh on her. I'm sure she is lovely other than her dislike of the car, so don't get rid to quickly.

Another vote here for a 300tdi as the engine you want. but in tersm of the body style it very much depends on how much of a camper you actually want and how many of you there are. You can get demountable camper bodies to fit in the back of a 110...

No idea on recommendations but when a friend had his bulkhead repaired (foot wells and top corners) it was significantly cheaper to get a mobile welder to come to him and do the work than it was to take the vehicle to a garage. He then stripped...

She will be Mad when I tell her because she already thinks its a death trap and I can see me having to get rid of it, so I have started looking for its replacement

That is definitely going to be a problem once the door top touches the new doors seal, but currently we are not even that close! I did wonder that but I think it is just the photo. I had these apart to rebuild and replace seals and they sat flat...

I agree with wildefalcon sounds like could be the ignition I had a similar issue see this thread in case it is helpful.. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/not-starting-main-beam-indicator-stalk-connection-series-3-petrol.364984/#post-5034874

There shouldn't really be much pressure under the rocker cover, unless you have major problems with valve stem seals and piston rings. Anyway, it'll breathe out via the tube that goes from the rocker cover to the air inlet. TD5 ECUs do...
