    Fuel Tank Recall

    Quite possibly, just off the phone with LR UK and they hadn't intimated that it was out of the recall period. The campaign was launched May 2005 and relates to vehicles that were by then already 12 years old so I'd assume there's a big safety element to it...

    Fuel Tank Recall

    Hi Guys, The weather has finally got it's act together and Summer has arrived in Ayrshire! Great news for my Rangey's electrics that have thoroughly dried out and started behaving! However, the recent heat has made the Classic present a new problem to me. When I walk to the rear of the...

    Rent A Ramp

    Hi Guys, Taken the plunge and forked out for a new set of air springs for the classic (all were perished and cracked). Only problem is fitting them. I've got all the tools but no access to a ramp (and don't fancy doing it with the car on axle stands). Does anyone know of any garages in...

    Crunching Noise On Full Lock

    Thank you, I should probably also have mentioned that the transfer box lever is stuck in neutral. I'll jack the car up and have a look at the bearings in that case :)

    Crunching Noise On Full Lock

    Hi guys, Finally got the LSE road ready and through her MOT *cheers* The problem I've got at the moment though is a sort of crunching/banging noise at low speeds when turning. It's a pretty nasty sound, and also sends a lot of vibration through the brake pedal. I was just wondering if anyone...

    If anyone is up in Aviemore next week, look out for the old black Vogue LSE. I'll be up skiing with mates and hopefully having a bit of fun with the Range Rover too. Alex :)

    Strange Air Suspension Fault

    Hi Guys, Now started work on my running restoration project, a 93 RRC LSE. When I bought it the air suspension was in hard fault mode and throwing all sorts of codes when connected to the diagnostic too. However, it would seem a Christmas miracle has happened as when I went to run the car...

    Scotland

    Pollphail is definitely worth a visit before it gets knocked down and turned into a MicroBrewery, I took some friends up there in my RRC a few weeks ago for some photography and it was pretty dang creepy. Luck had it that there was a film crew in at the same time doing a post apocalyptic movie...

    Alarm help!!!

    Thanks guys, it's a horn job in mine, but it looks like some tube has fitted a set of air horns at some point in the car's life, not quite sure if this has changed the wiring from the alarm to the horn. For the minute I've just disconnected the battery. But I think I might remove the...

    Alarm help!!!

    Hi guys, long story short, the alarm in my 93 range rover classic LSE is going nuts and I have no idea how to disable it and sleep easily knowing that it won't be waking up my neighbours during the night. Does anyone know how to make sure the alarm won't go off? Don't really care about...

    Classic Vinyl Roof

    Wow, small world isn't it? Bought it from a small car dealer in Edinburgh as I'd been after a Classic since my P38 died. Plan to restore it to it's former glory. 1992LSE, do you think your mate will have any further information on the car's history around? Any info at all would be massively...

    Classic Vinyl Roof

    Might just be the angle and the fact that it's sitting down on the bump stops. Here's another photo from a different angle. Alex

    Classic Vinyl Roof

    It's an LSE model, so 108in chassis rather than the normal 100in. Or do you mean it looks even longer than an LSE? :) Alex

    Classic Vinyl Roof

    Thank you :) it's a cracker, must have belonged to someone very wealthy back in the day. It's got a few little niggles that need worked on *cough* air suspension *cough* but I'm looking to get it back to best :) Alex

    Classic Vinyl Roof

    Thanks very much, I had a feeling it might not have been a factory option. Hopefully that doesn't mean it'll be impossible to find the right winder for... If anyone has any idea where I might be able to get bits it would be greatly appreciated. Cheers for the info so far guys, I obviously...

    Classic Vinyl Roof

    Hi guys, New to this forum and new to RRC ownership so please don't bite if this is a stupid question :P I've recently bought a 93 Classic Vogue LSE which has a full length vinyl sunroof. The winder handle for the roof appears to have been broken off at some point and I've been trying to find...

    Am I Insane?

    Hi guys, thank you for your kind welcomes and sorry for my delayed reply. Starting to get torn into the work, first thing to get some attention will be sorting out the air suspension, the car looks so sad on its bump stops...

    Am I Insane?

    Hi guys, First post on the forum as the proud new owner of a 93 Range Rover Classic LSE. Bought the car as a project and intend to do an extensive restoration over the next couple of years whilst at Uni. It's a good looking car, in black with the less common full length vinyl sunroof...
