thanks :) Good idea, should have though of it (the more so since I've got the same problem -- misfire caused by bad ignition leads -- just short time ago with another car :o). Alas, no service book. Those are pretty rare here (Czech Republic) anyway... actually, I am yet to see one :(...

Hi Dave, thanks for the answer! Possibly. Short of bad spark plugs (which I've already told the seller to be so kind to check for :)), are there known causes with RR's? Anyroad, means I am right it is not normal, and that at idle, sitting inside with bonnet closed just by hearing/feeling...

Hmmm, another question for those experienced... As I am reading on the car, it seems '96 Range Rovers could be prone to the Porous Engine Block problem. Any way to check before I buy the car? Thanks for any info!

Hallo there, with some luck, I'll join you all rangeroverites soon (if so, I'll properly introduce myself and my car both in the appropriate forum) Though, I'd like to ask for some advice first, if you don't mind. Thing is, I am considering buying a 2nd-hand Range 4.6 HSE, of '96, some 90K...
