Also front left sensor - apparently?

I’d be up for that.

I also note that you are based in the nearest town to me, only a few miles away and it looks as if you are similarly afflicted by choosing to green lane in a p38! We could meet up and compare mods, and Nos of replacement rads due to viscous fan strikes while wading!

I had exactly the same issues. I used @Datatek ’s mod, (Thanks again for that), and added another cruise control switch to the dash which i wired in line with the fan so i can turn it off when wading. I don’t miss the viscous fan at all.

Also, forgot to mention that I picked her up from the garage the other day. New front left ride height sensor - fixed all the EAS issues - for now - and the ABS. Drives beautifully now. Well, apart from the wallowing and late gear changes, but that’s my own fault!

Drove her all the way to the tip and back. That’s a long journey, maybe 10 miles in total - and I hesitate to say this because it’s usually tempting fate - but she behaved perfectly.

I have the genuine LR removable tow hitch and i don’t have any problems at all, not with a trailer or bike rack or when empty.

It’s a 2000 model. Well, registered 2000, i think Model Year ‘99.

Worth a try. Ta.

You might wonder why i need a new inlet manifold. There is not much to go wrong is there? However, i think mine is plastic and the broken intercooler fixing bracket has rubbed a hole in it!

Yes. My old manifold has a change in the diagonal after the 3rd or 4th pipe, the new one i bought looked right superficially on t’ internet - but all the diagonals are the same. Bugger.

Thanks guys. I’ll give that a try.

Nope. She’s a psychopath. Stole a pair of pliers out of my hand while I was distracted the other day.

full size…

Ok, here is mine.

We should start a thread. Pictures of cute dogs in the back of Range Rovers. Here’s mine.

Today, removed the inlet manifold to get to the coolant hoses at the back of the engine and replaced the set of three hoses that connect the coolant fill tank with the engine. Went to put on a new inlet manifold and then realised it does not quite fit. Had to replace the old one instead.

Really sorry to hear this sad news, I valued his contributions highly.

I’m surprised no one commented that although it’s useful to have freed the nuts - it wasn’t required in order to check the ride height sensor. I spent bloody ages getting the wheel off then the wheel arch trim - and then I could not understand why I could not find the bloody sensor, then when I...

A Sledgehammer to crack a nut? The last mechanic to work on this was way over enthusiastic with the impact driver. Tried a torque wrench then again on maximum, then a tyre iron, then with a hammer, then a lump hammer, finally a sledgehammer! This is just to get the bloody wheel off so i can get...
