    Help! I've locked meself out!!

    Going to attack her tonight when I get back from work. Thought daylight would help me see how badly I damage the paint! Plus throwing bricks through my windows late at night does tend to get the neighbors reaching for phones!

    Got my first range rover and its all gone wrong

    Not at all mate, you'll be very surprised at the price of range rover spares. Datatek above makes cables to diagnose this sort of thing. Its so easy to use even the missus has reset ours when its had a moment! I would highly recommend getting one so at least you can post up fault codes etc and...

    Bluetooth OBD, anyone tried it?

    Ok, I shall use with extreme caution! Need to have a poke as I have yet to check if the RF is connected or not to be honest. I wouldn't knock the live data too quickly though, I've not got too extensive with it yet and admit I'm taking the finding with a healthy dose of salt but it has helped...

    Thanks saint. Just wanted to be sure and ask for some expert advice before just lobbing bits at it to be honest.

    Bluetooth OBD, anyone tried it?

    Sorry for the thread revival but is the RF really that much of an issue? Used one on my P38, no issues at all and the live data is very handy. That said it doesn't get used for long periods.

    Yet More Newbie Questions

    Not as far north as you (outside Edinburgh) but we wouldn't be without the range rover, its a struggle to get the missus to drive our other car as she loves it that much. They are quirky but as already suggested, buy as new as you can and buy diesel and you'll be fine. I warn you though, once...

    aligning axle and swivel hub

    Now you describe it like that Irishrover I can picture in my head how it works. I've dropped ZZR1200 a pm as well, cheers My plan now is to use a length of tube same diameter as the driveshaft, machine one end down small enough to insert into the output part of the diff then make a collar to...

    4.0 P38 turns over for ages before starting!

    Little update, Fuel pressure reg changed and proven MAF fitted... a bit better but still not starting straight away. Got to put her in for its MOT retest tomorrow then its off to Lauder and MSV faultmate guy! I'll keep everyone posted but starting to think its possibly a weak fuel pump...

    Stupid newbie question, drivetrain noise

    Problem solved! Passenger side wheel bearing was shot. Think the leak from the half shaft might have washed it out but its changed now and noise gone!
