    405 Standard Vs long wheelbase

    Morning all, I was looking at a 67 plate L405 yesterday but hadn't clocked it was a long wheelbase. I wasn't really looking for long wheelbase, but its a good car. I don't really carry people in the back much, so am wondering if the extra length might be more trouble than its worth - any...

    2012 Range Rover 4.4 TDV8 using loads of oil

    I believe the garage who serviced it had used the wrong oil. LR changed the oil and it hasn't used a drop since. They are known to do this with the wrong oil and its the only explanation I can think of.

    Recommendation of main dealer Oxon Bucks Berks

    Can anyone recommend a good Land Rover dealer in the Oxon, Bucks Berks areas I have just had an absolute nightmare with Slough. Does anyone really rate Watford, Aylesbury, Ascot, Oxford or Reading? Sough just charged me about £550 to diagnose a blocked turbo oil drain pipe, despite the fact...

    L322 2012 Range Rover battery removal / replacement

    Cant seem to find this in a search, but i need to change the battery on my 2012 car. I have read about putting the bonnet in the 'service position' which seems OK, but on these late cars there seems to be a metal bracket at the front of the battery compartment which mean I can't get the battery...

    2012 Range Rover 4.4 TDV8 using loads of oil

    That's my fear, but i'm amazed the DPF could gobble up that much smoke when I'm hammering the throttle. Very strange, but the facts are the facts - there is oil going in and none coming out so it must be being burnt!!

    2012 Range Rover 4.4 TDV8 using loads of oil

    This one has us stumped. Using nearly 2l of oil every 1,000 miles. Absolutely no leaks whatsoever - in the garage for the second time yesterday and bone dry. Can not get it to shuck any smoke out of the back either. No signs on smoke around the exhausts and I have had people follow me whilst I...

    2012 RR Westminster heated / cooling seat not working

    The seatbelt light doesn't come on either, so I'm going wit the occupancy sensor for now. They don't seem that resilient do they . The ones on My audi's have never caused any problem, but each of my RRs have had problems. Thanks for your help

    2012 RR Westminster heated / cooling seat not working

    Guys the passenger seat on my RR neither heats nor cools any more. The switch suggests it is doing, but nothing actually happens. My local garage is happy the power is getting to the seat, but have said its a LR dealer job beyond that as its likely to be the element It struck me as both heating...

    iPhone music connection to L322

    I'm sure this must have been covered but I couldn't find anything. I've just bought a 2012 RR with a 30 pin iPhone connector. I imagined simply switching to an 8 pin lead would have been straightforward, but apparently not, the don't seem to exist - that just seems very odd! The phone pairs...
