I think the heated screen uses the same. In fact i think all yellow ones are the same regardless of the number. Someone may disagree. Swap out the heated screen one as I guess you're not going to use that this week.. see what happens

By the way, that's off a 99-02 Thor

Thanks for checking that out. I'll order a replacement one. Car still starts and drives, so I suppose it's not anything critical. I've not noticed anything stop working though.

It's a yellow one with R6L9 on it

I've just been out to take a picture of the fuse box diagram: RL10, bottom centre, is the one I'm missing. Anyone got a Thor they can double check?

I probably didn't get all the old oil out, I'll give it a run and check the levels again Fusebox lid shows a picture of an engine with an electrical bolt through it. Don't have a picture unfortunately! Imagine an EML with a lightning bolt. Next up.

Ignition key doesn't fit the glove box either, so hoping the door and glove box are for the same original key. Changed the oil today, was blacker than the night. 5L of fresh 20w-50 gone in. The old filter put up quite a fight. The garage...

Get ignition and door barrels from a breaker along with a key blade and swap them over, not difficult, I've done just that on my project car. Make a note in the service book that they do not correspond to the VIN.

I've just seen the price of the Mk3/Green receivers, so much for such a small device! So I've got a key which only fits the ignition barrel, and a door lock with no key. What's the sensible way forward? Replace the door lock cylinder with a...

Update: They pushed the car out of the garage and it started to behave normally again. Keyfob works and engine starts. Perhaps an issue with RF interference. It's now sitting pretty on my drive 😊 I'll have to check if I have the updated RF...

Luckily there's no risk of getting locked out because the driver's door has never locked properly. I've also got one of those inflatable cushions and a metal hanger just in case 😆 Ideally I'd like to get a new lock barrel and key (flip...

I don't live this way by choice, this car has a to do list from here to the moon that I'm slowly tackling 😆

Problem with pushing is there's a few ramps to overcome, and the guys at the garage were quite busy with other cars so I don't think they'd be too happy about spending time on mine now that I've paid the bill. I held the key fob right up to the...

Hi all, My 1999 has finally passed its MOT! But the garage said they can't start the car anymore. Dashboard says engine disabled. Was working yesterday, but not today. Dash and radio still light up, so don't think it's a flat battery. I've...

It is booked in with a LR indy tomorrow, just wanted to check ahead of time. Current MOT station told me it wasn't going to pass either way if it had no cats

Is this the right set of cats for a 1999 Thor?: https://www.dieselparticulatefilters2u.co.uk/land-rover/7009-land-rover-range-rover-46-01-97-02-01-catalytic-converter-bm90737.html

That's good to know. I'm back at square one then - assuming the MOT station won't fail it for missing cats, what's the usual process of diagnosing high emissions? I'm going to have them check the voltages on the O2 sensors today to see if...

Is it possible to pass the emissions test without the cats?

Failed on emissions I believe, no mention of cats in the results: Exhaust carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle exceeds default limits (8.2.1.2 (b)) Exhaust Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (8.2.1.2 (c)) Exhaust...

Thanks , I'll take a look. Here are the pictures, does this support what they're telling me?

Just been to the garage - they reckon the cats have been cut out and replaced with straight pipes. Pictures to follow later. If that's the case - please do share where I can get some replacement ones. Should the O2 sensors be pre-cat or post-cat?

Haven't heard back from the garage today (despite telling me they'd ring - classic). There's another garage a bit further which has all the LR diagnostic equipment, so I've booked it in with them later this week. Hopefully all will become clear...

It's at the station right now so I can't take a look yet - I did mention the lambda sensors, but they said they were '100% confident' the cats are at fault. They said they would have to change all 4 lambda sensors to be able to rule that out...

MOT station has just rang - they reckon there could be an issue with the cats. Said they sounded hollow when they tapped them. Is there a quick way to diagnose this?

Steel works must be fuming 😂

I've got an OBD reader but it's one of the cheapy/generic ones, what values should I be comparing with? O2 sens voltage?

<insert Port Talbot MOT failure on Emissions joke here>

Morning, Just took mine in for an MOT. It failed on suspension wear and emissions: Exhaust carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle exceeds default limits (8.2.1.2 (b)) Exhaust Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits...

Thanks! Been out today and drove about 20 miles total, all seems to be good so far. I did smell some burning from under the bonnet, maybe because the heat shields are off? I tried to check the coolant level when I got home, but now my bonnet...

Trailer lights.
