I refuse to answer that on the grounds that it may incriminate me.

Not so much that, but rather remembering the preposterous negativity of the naysayers,
a monthly regime of running slaps would be fruitless on them.
Anyhoo, what colour gaiter did you plump for in the end?

I see what you did there, even though you may not have.
So after doing my first long journey in it I’m wondering if it’s engine related and not gearbox.
Travelling along a dual carriageway no issues if it’s flat. Going up a slight hill at that speed and the revs were bouncing between 2500rpm and 2600rpm but no loss in speed I had the cruise control on.
Got to a really steep hill on a dual carriageway were most small engined cars struggle to maintain 70mph my td5 discovery would drop to 50mph up it. The Range Rover went down to about 35mph it would then rev at 3000 it wouldn’t let me force a downshift. After it was very rough the engine sounded noticeably louder.
I have checked all vacuum hoses and none were split. I also replaced all turbo hoses as the old ones were looking sorry for themselves. I have not looked at what codes have been generated.
