Hi I am new to the site and hope that it will be able to guide me through the joys and perils of owning an L322 TD6 2006 MY. I believe it is an "unbadged autobiography" what ever that means. So far spent quite a bit on it including the required rebuilt gearbox. I intend to try and get it back to factory spec after the previous owner(s) changed many things.
I am having problems trying to work out the part number for the passenger seat cover, the existing one is ripped with a very poor repair. The build sheet says it is ivory/ivory/jet ex Oxford on the comfort seat. It is as it says ivory with jet piping and has the perforated leather center panels. Can anyone point me in the right direction for a definitive part number please

Guess not))
I suppose next stop is a dealer or perhaps just get a full replacement from "The Seat Surgeons" probably cheaper as well.

If it's an autobiography it's non standard so maybe a car upholsterers, they do it on wheeler dealers all the time.

Quite a few to chose from and which 1 is yours is any bodies guess.
Lrcat

Might be worth ringing some breakers.

But think probably the best bet would be a good car upholstory company send the old cover (so they have the right color style, and they can either repair of remake.

Thanks for the reply, having trawled through the forums and RR suppliers web sites I think your right. I guess I might as well get the interior renewed probably cheaper than going direct to land rover.

Yes - looked through the LRcat there and even being able to read Russian doesn't help as they do not give any details of the style((

Have you actually asked the dealer for a quote and part number. But expect it to be lots of beer tokens.
But if you had the part number it may popup in a search.

Not yet but based upon the prices for the comfort seat covers (not found mine) part numbers I have been putting it off. Some are asking £1,700 for the non- perforated cover. Dealer is next stop, but expecting similar/higher price from them. The interior trim people mentioned earlier have full interiors for the 2009 onwards at £2,800 fitted so think I will be going down that route after I have been to the dealer for a price. Would prefer original as that is what I am trying to do, but there comes a point when you are spending more than the vehicle is worth and I am over that point already)))
