Fit bigger wheels & tyres and a lpg kit, instant rpm reduced/cheaper fuel. Change axle diffs what about the centre diff ratio as they dont match the transfer box, so what happens when you need to go faster eg up hill when you need higher...

Weight makes a big difference to economy. You’d save fuel by not being so full of ****

Leave then🤷

Yes, increased pumping looses.

You may be the first to find out kiddo. 🫵😎

Pulling a higher gear may actually impose more stress on the engine. a wider throttle opening needed to maintain speed, thus higher compression pressures. A lighter load and higher revs does no harm. The 2.76 diffs you say went with the 8 speed...

Might actually increase fuel consumption because even though the revs are lower, the engine may be working harder to maintain speed.

Cheers chaps. Over.

Suppose the responsibility is on me to ignore it then.

Right, I’m tired, so I’ll have to stop ignoring this for today and start again tomorrow

P0016, P0019: Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation (likely Bank 1 and Bank 2) That's generally a pointer to the timing chain skipped. Its especially common on those early ones. I'd be vaery waring of running it... one more...

you'll find a wiring diag here.

Bear in mind you might want a relay or two and a fuse before you burn your truck to the ground.

nothing, move along, nothing to see here

Jeepers Ali, we've all got to ignore it all over again now.

Last post five days ago! Looks like we're starting to get it! Well done chumps.

Thanks both, I had the wheel off yesterday and gave the drive shaft a pull and it was defo out, so gave it a good shove back in, heard the click and all was solid. Wheel back on, test drive and it's as though it never happened. Thanks for the...

I can't tell if you're talking about the Chinese version or JLR's new vehicles... ;) I'm VERY wary of the long term life of new Chinese cars... but no more wary than anything new from JLR, anyway.

Progress so far... Air box etc out of the way. Upper intake manifold off. Lower intake manifold, coil packs, fan, belts, pulleys, coolant hoses and rocker covers etc. Heads off. The problem cylinder, all liners look and feel ok for...

But not in your engine, Right? don't want to give him the wrong idea! 🤣 🤣 🤣

I'm currently ignoring that my L Series keeps immobilising itself. We don't lock the car but both times I've got in it today the little LED on the dash has been blinking and goes solid when I turn the key, I have to press the fob unlock before...

Dropped a drive shaft out maybe? 🤔

A crunching sound when moving the lever into Park is usually a sign of something disconnected downstream of the transmission output. It’s caused by the parking pawl ratcheting on the park lock gear, even though the park lock gear should be...

Tbh it is no bad thing. Letting the torque spin out protects the driveline to an extent The issue with the m57 is that it makes a lot of torque very low down I have put a pneumatic centre diff lock in but I doubt I will ever use it unless I get...

Disco 2's have traction control... The centre diff in the LT230 likes to destroy itself if it spins too fast/long :( If my Disco 1 wasn't such a ****box, I'd get Ashcroft ATBs front, centre and rear: Then it'd be like a proper AWD on the road...

No viscous coupling or traction control on the Disco? I guess limited slip diffs front and rear would help. Not sure how you'd manage the centre diff.

It'll be one very, very black line, with an LT230 🤣 All the power turns to smoke at the inside front wheel when accelerating on corners :( My Disco wears the front left twice as fast as all the other tyres, from lighting up when trying to pull...

Here she is

Lovely night in work in royal mail an area that noted for being a sweatbox😟 Only thing keeping me going was to ignore it. When all around you are speaking a foreign language I blank it. When I get back home to bed. I eventually ignored the din of...

I think this is your best cartoon to date. I think teacher would say "10 out of 10, keep up the good work". However...... Unless that was a spare pair, I speak for us all, when I say, thanks for not doing a full frontal on that one!
