Hi, Sounds like you've got problems with the duel mass flywheel. It's a very common problem and is very well documented within these pages. Put a search in for duel mass flywheel and I'm sure you will recognise the symptoms. Cheers

Hi, Since returning from holiday towing the caravan, the engine sounds much noisier with a definite cammy tap to it. It is worse when cold but very evident on the move as if the tappets needed adjusting or a hydraulic tappet had failed. Does anyone out there know if there are hydraulic tappets...

Hi, Am finally fed up with the fan constantly roaring away on the Rangie so have ordered a new coupling which arrived today. Upon trying to get the fan cowling off it appears the radiator will have to be removed to get access, is this correct or is there another way, as reading through other...

Hi, I have recently purchased a twin axle 1600kg caravan which my L322 TD6 Auto tows without too much trouble. It obviously has to work pretty hard so I am wondering whether I should shorten the service intervals and change the ATF fluid every service. Would an Kenlow fan be a worthwhile...

Hi Duff, I assume you have pressed the parking sensor cancel button on the dash to no avail. Once you get over 10mph they should self cancel. I had 2 on the rear fail, you can usually tell because the face of the sensor is wrinkled where they have corroded. Mine used to bleat all the time if...

Well you certainly feel like you've been fooked after paying it out. Unfortunately the L322 has no additional port to allow a link to a laptop to access the EAS unlike the P38, so it's a main dealer job unless you can afford a Rovercom or similar. I spoke to the people at blackbox solutions...

Hi, I had the same problem a couple of weeks ago but I had no lights on the dash just the air suspension inactive message. Turned out to be the air compressor in the boot. £280 quid on ebay and 10 mins to fit but you have to get the motor back to a dealer to reset the EAS £88 plus VAT took em...

On the way home today from a very wet holiday in Devon, miserable kids and wife, caravan on the back, rain lashing down, M5 stop and start and the bloody windscreen wipers pack in. Managed to pull over under a bridge and check the basics, fuse ok, wiper not jammed. Then after 5 minutes all...

Hi, Apologies for stating the obvious but did you remove the alternator when overhauling the Heads and if so have you plugged the cable back in? Hope you get it fixed. Cheers

Wow £25k is a fantastic budget, I paid £12,500 for my 03 HSE with 60k miles so you must be looking at 06/07 cars. After driving a later V8 motor when mine was in for a recall I would try and either raise your budget or screw the dealer down on price and go for the better engine. Whilst the TD6...

Hi, we have a TD6 03 model and have got to say it's the best vehicle we have owned. Fuel consumption is quite high but that has to be expected given the weight and lack of aerodynamics. It will average 22 -23mpg around town but over 30 on a run. We have had a couple of niggling problems 1...

This sounds like the way forward on my L322 Diesel which has a sticky viscous fan. Where can I get an electric fan kit from? Cheers Ian

If you ring a local RR dealer and give him the Reg and VIN they should be able to check the car's history. There have been several recalls as far as I know, my 2003 HSE had to have a new diff at 25k due to misalignment but there was still an outstanding recall for alignment which I only found...

Hi, Has your car been in to the dealer to have the driveshaft alignments and modifications done as part of the L322 recall. Mine was done today. Feels much smoother, all vibration gone.

Hi Paul8725, Can't help much with the power loss problem, but can confirm the steering controls do not work unless the ignition is on. Is it Petrol or Diesel? I can only assume some part of the ignition system is taking the juice out of the circuit. Is the Battery ok? Hope you find the...

Thanks Rewmer have emailed blackbox and hopefully they can sort me out something. I guess the EAS kicker is the minimum I need, but looking at the site the one listed only caters for Classic and P38. Thanks again for the info

Hi, After having a few minor problems with my L322 TD6 and looking at the many posts in this forum, I think it may be worthwhile getting a code reader and faut resetting tool. Being able to reset the EAS would be the most important feature as I tow a caravan and if it failed again would leave me...

You can try some cleaner, can't hurt, made no diference to mine though. Any of the well known names should be ok wynns, millers etc. My injector failed at 68k, it will progressively get worse until the flat spot makes the whole car shake at low revs. If you've got the tools, changing it only...

Hi, i had exactly the same problem on my 03 TD6 last month. First thing in the morning the motor would be fine other than a puff of blue smoke on startup which smelt of diesel. Then if you reved it to over 3500rpm when the motor came to a halt in gear there would a slight shudder as you pulled...

Hi, Thanks for the reply. Have downloaded rave but can't open it. Can anyone tell where the compressor is located, I think I'll get it off and test it off the car. Well done wrxfifer I have been following your plight with interest, glad to see you got it going, just the suspension to do now...
