I was asked on one of my videos if I knew whether or not the earlier L322 needed to be told it has had a new battery. It's down to 64% and a 4x4 specialist had quoted about £140 for a battery (pretty reasonable I guess for it being fitted) but...

I have an update on my 2007 Rangerover sport 2.7 diesel. I stripped down the top of the engine and replaced all four camshafts from a donor engine that had cracked its crankshaft. Comparing my camshafts with the donor camshafts I found that...

Take the plenum off under the bonnet and you'll be able to see the door motors move when you unlock the car, if it's one of those I expect you'll quickly diagnose it. Pull the rubber seal off, 2x 13mm nuts (yellow arrow) Vent door mechanism...

I'm confused, which car does the OP have? Evoque, Vogue (assuming L322) or the old Facebook Marketplace favourite "Vouge or Jeep" which frankly could mean anything on there.

i think you had the sequence the wrong way around

Drums in the centre of the discs. Exactly the same as my facelift 3.6 and I had no issue at all. I can't see that I'm doing anything different to what I did before or what is in this detail, Kermit's description or any video I've watched! I...

Why didn't you say that in the first place? 🤔🫣

That's what I'm trying to achieve yes. Not that it's urgent right now as I can't drive it until I fit the new air spring.

Appreciate it but I don't think it needed fixing; height sensor gives data, pressure adjusts according to requirement. More pressure=more height.

I did 20 years in insurance, the type accident you are talking about would be investigating mechanical failure by a police forensic investigation team in the absence of any other reasonable explanation and even if one old air spring failed...

I did the NSF one a few weeks ago and I did say at the time the other one's bound to go soon. So on that point I have to agree with you! I'm not totally convinced that they need to be changed in pairs really, manufacturers will always say...

On Saturday I changed the discs, pads and parking brake shoes as well as flushing the brake fluid. I also repainted the calipers while there ahead of the long awaited wheel refurb that it so desperately needs. On Sunday morning I decided to...

MOT passed at lunchtime. The tester had to block one side of the exhaust with a cloth to get a good reading for the emissions. The 4.4 TDV8 emits virtually fresh air, I am going to write to the DVLA with this evidence and I expect an apology and...

Loving these warmer lighter evenings. Did a quick service on the RR last night, (Oil, Air, Pollen, Fuel filters). MOT today and then this weekend will be new discs and pads all round, parking brake shoes, rear shocks, transfer box and diff...

Went take some pics of that stashed p38 I been thinking about. Building next to it has either been hit by a lorry or exploded, all covered in police tape, p38 is gone it’s just a space of no grass with two drag marks. Take it she didn’t survive 🥲...

There is one of those newish MG SUV type things around here and the owner has bought all the individual letters to spell out M O R R I S G A R A G E S across the bonnet. That's a lot of letters, goes almost edge to edge across it.

It is and thank you. Build #280. Had it 9.5 years now, still good fun too.

You'll end up with a white border around the frits (that is the official name for the little dots that join the black and clear glass BTW) and it'll look garbage like all aftermarket tints (in my humble but unswerving opinion of course). Factory...

Depends what he's driving. If he's just bought an L405 the Series lot might not talk to him!

Absolutely amazing work sir. Hat off to you on this effort. Long may you enjoy it.

finally here we are! not yet 100% but in the meantime it's on the road!! now I've disconnected the air conditioning compressor because it started to make noise, when I have time I'll disassemble it, the fabric of the headliner still needs to be...
