For the VCU yes, but whichever model, new tyres on the rear and worn on the front will stress the centre diff.
Front tyres will always wear faster than rears?
Thats what comes with owning a RangieTwo new rear tyres. Has solved the dum-dum-dum-dum-dum vibration at low speeds. Has not solved my bank account

The fronts are both relatively new. Rears were over eight years old though (and an MOT advisory). Cor they were in a right old state.

Which is why I swap front to back every 6K miles.

Best add this to the list of growing jobs
Check under the plastic that runs along the roof to body sides. My son's had a crack in the body sealer above the windscreen.

I stressed and procrastinated for a year before Kev12 convinced me to just pull it out. Had it out, tarted up and back fitted in a day. Bit potchy at first but after you’ve done it once is real easy.

I just don’t have any space to work on the roof lining and don’t want the ‘38 minus the lining for eons. However, I agree it needs to come out, 1 to ascertain where it’s leaking, 2 to glue the saggy bit back up.

It will all store in the rear with the seats down. You will need somewhere dry to work on the lining before refitting though. You don’t wanna take it in the house the bobbly stuff on it gets everywhere

And that’s no sunroof!
Sorry couldn’t resist
Honestly it’s easy bud just need little patience.
The old stuff won't stay if you try and glue it back on

And some glues react with the lining and melt it. Ask me how I know

Martrim do kits with the correct glue.
If you want something that looks nice and well last.
The foam backing on the old stuff rots, which is why it falls away. Glue it back on and it just rots more

Depends if they got all the bobbly foam off. That’s the hardest bit.
