    L322 tdv8

    Hi just to agree with the comments about the battery and also waking up the electrical systems. If you unlock the car but don’t start it it helps to turn the ignition switch to position II then off again that will turn off the screen and also by pressing and holding the interior light main...

    L322 Compressor

    Hi Graham, Looks like your compressor needs a rebuild as you have no output. You can choose to do it yourself there are kits on the bay, alternatively, get a reconditioned assembly complete, plug and play solution. If you are going to rebuild don't forget the air moisture chamber needs to be...

    Follow me home, turn on?

    Just looked in my 2005 handbook and it’s called “Headlamp Courtesy Delay”. What the hell kind of description is that anyway. I think “Headlamp Delay” would be fine, that way there would no looking over the shoulder for stalkers etc. Tricky. :p

    P38A Trench foot..

    As someone who has had the rear screen of my old company car replaced 4 times by Autoglass because they couldn’t line it up properly with the roof or the rear pillars you have my sympathy. Don’t let it distract you from doing what you do to the best of your ability even if your struggling to...

    Follow me home, turn on?

    It’s all the same thing, just a different name. Mrs Tricky has it on her Citroen and you simply turn it on or off via the media menu. If it’s on then every time the headlights are on when the ignition is turned off the headlights stay on for a selected number of seconds. Why Land Rover have to...

    Follow me home, turn on?

    Hi, just to say that my 2005 L322 fitted with Auto Lights is as you describe, when you turn off the ignition flash the indicator stalk to turn on “follow me home lights”. On vehicles without Auto Lights it is an automatic function when the ignition is turned off while light switch is still in...

    L322 Rear Seat belt leak

    Thanks for your post, I’m struggling to get the outer D Pillar trim off, it may have to get busted. I’m trying to avoid stripping out interior trim but may have no option. Going to try the hosepipe test today on the bumper mounting plate seals as they are in the right place and look a bit...

    L322 Rear Seat belt leak

    If only I could just change the boot seal but it’s absolutely not the case on mine. See this pic, the water trail comes down from the D pillar behind all the media kit emerging at the boot floor. Parts of the outer and interior trim will have to come off at some point to find the leak path. We...

    Great job, you should take time to enjoy that showroom finish before it gets muddy again. Tricky :cool:

    L322 Rear Seat belt leak

    Hi, you and I are on a similar quest. I have again gone to the car this morning to find 2cm of water in the boot. I find it inconceivable that my leak is coming via the sunroof as it all looks very dry up top but I need to pull the trim to see if I have a body seam or glass to body leak. I’ll be...

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    Been out Xmas shopping today, sadly spoiled by the discovery of 2cm of water in the boot. This is war, it’s coming down the D pillar N/S for sure and possibly also slightly less O/S so all the trim is getting removed this weekend to get this sorted. We’ve only had a few days rain so it won’t...

    Lazy Eye adaptive headlight

    Keep the faith. Mine were replaced as clear not electrochrome by previous owner and it makes me sad every time it gets dark, especially on the motorway. I have a list of “back to spec” jobs but they’re all waiting for those by chance opportunities to get the parts I need. Tricky. :)

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    My reality is that I don’t need a Range Rover or an other car as Mrs Tricky has one that starts every time you turn the key but I enjoy driving cleaning and tinkering. Perhaps I should grow up and stop playing with toys but if I do that I’d probably end up sat in front of the TV all winter and...

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    I agree, my whole family have bought into the Range Rover. This being my second after I rolled the last one is considered one of the safest places to be driven in our opinion. Add that to the smiles every time we go anywhere in it there is a serious risk that the only other drive would be a...

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    It would appear to be a common theme, my brother, my son and myself are all Jag / Daimler and Land Rover fans. Dragging our impoverished dependants along with us. Is there a Land Rover secret program underway? Spooky or are they just very spellbinding motors. Tricky :)

    It seems we are of the same mind. Why do we have Range Rovers? Tricky :)
