    Range Rover Dementia

    Some of you my recall in the past I have suggested that perhaps my sweet little Rangie might be actually aware. albeit a tad demented. I have to admit that when I made that post, it was somewhat tongue in cheek. However, I took my Range Rover in to have some work done prior to it's MOT. The...

    One year later...

    So I have had my big beastie for a whole year now. and along came the time that we owners of slightly older vehicles dread. I am talking about the... ... Dah dah dah MOT time. I have made a a habit, nay, an art form out of ignoring everybody who told me that I was mad to have a Range. I have...

    LPG it works!!!

    One of the many reasons that I bought my Range Rover, other than the fact that I had the green wellies already and needed the car to go with them, was the fact that this particular broom broom had LPG. Well like all of us Range Rover owners, we love to do our bit for the environment, not only...

    As a matter of interest. Who here will be happy running their RR on E10 euro-fuel

    Range Rover Dementia

    True, but she wont like it! She will make a fuss until she realises it is okay. I have never been owned by a car before!

    Range Rover Dementia

    She is in a mood today. Yesterday I was investigating how to put the bonnet into the "service position". I don't know about you but I have a memory that I might have tried that with a young lady friend way back in the 80's when I was a bit more supple and adventurous. Anyway it did not turn...

    Range Rover Dementia

    I am worried that my Range might start wondering off on its own, start shoplifting or just get lost.

    Range Rover Dementia

    This may seem somewhat strange diagnosis, but i am beginning to suspect that my Range Rover L322 is suffering from a form of dementia. This is because of the other day. I had just driven to a well known outlet who I can not name but who's name rhymes with " Frewscrix". Any way, we had just...

    Full member. Ooooh

    Damn it all. You can't expect a FULL MEMBER to give rides to all and sundry!!! There are standards you know. I suppose if she gets into the boot...

    Full member. Ooooh

    So I took the plunge and invested a huge stash of my hard earned into becoming a Full Member. Ta ta tarra! ( That's a trumpet fanfare by the way). There are some who have followed my short, but lively time with Landyzone and have come to the conclusion that I am already a complete and utter...

    Bloody plastic.

    I have now been a member of the greasy hands, no fingernail brigade now for about 6 months. I have enjoyed the pleasure, and seen the dark underbelly of RR ownership. All in all the general consensus of opinion is that I bloody love my V8 gas guzzler. This is not always the case, such as the...

    Why is my wiring diagram naked and pouting

    I would like to thank you for your help in saving my eyesight and marriage. I have indeed found the wiring diagrams for my L322 and I am not in the SLIGHTEST BIT disappointed that it does not include any, no not one, scantily clad lady. NOT ONE!

    Why is my wiring diagram naked and pouting

    What on earth is going on. I was on my computerator innocently browsing, looking for wiring diagrams for my dearly beloved L322. I typed in the simple search " Wiring diagrams for Range Rover L322". I dont know how that can be mis-interpreted. It is not as if I had typed " Pictures of rude...

    L322 It's all going ( fairly) well. (so far)

    Winter is here and i am just beginning to feel slightly pleased with myself. Slightly, well I will come back to that. Here in the wilderness of Surrey, which as you may well be aware is one of the richest counties in the U.K, (especially in the borough of Surrey Heath) the roads are not known...

    L322 Dead battery/locked out fix.

    I had exactly the same problem with my crappy X5. I have decided to pre-empt the problem occurring with my Range, so I have installed an exterior "marine grade" 12 volt port which can be back fed with 12 volts to at least provide enough voltage to open the doors. I did this after finding a...

    Start you Bassa! Or, oh dear what could be wrong now

    Cheers! Pleased to say that I found a dry joint on the positive battery terminal that required me to cut the lead and remake the end to the battery. The lug was tight on the terminal, thus the reason I did not spot it immediately, but the copper inside the lug was corroded and obviously...

    Start you Bassa! Or, oh dear what could be wrong now

    Thank you all. This morning I was feeling a little under the weather, a combination of very little sleep and a cold meant that I really did not want to go to work. I decided that if the Range didn't start then I was going back to bed. That being the case I put the key into the ignition and...

    Start you Bassa! Or, oh dear what could be wrong now

    The damnable thing worked perfectly today, but I am going to get out the emery paper and grease and give the battery terminals, earth terminals a bloody good going over. Thank you.
