After months of faultless driving (from a L322? Yes, really!) had the flat battery syndrome twice. Seemed it was the headlight wipers not returning to datum. But in jump-starting flattened new battery seem to have lost the full remote unlock sequence on all doors that was working OK before...

As the mechanic said, his customers with any BMW M62-engined car are recommended to have an oil change every 8,000 miles. And, from my experience with all the furring up, breakdown of head gasket allowing exhaust gasses back into the coolant jacket, and the pressure effects of same on hoses, a...

So, after about 2,000 miles (Glasgee and back, etc) the Bong! of Gloom again. This time it was again heater valley connection adapter that was leeching. Me and mechanic could see that it was a very slight leech that showed as a red line dribbling down the drivers' side of the block past the...

Following helpful reply received from Tinley Tech: "That fitting [open brass-looking one in the pic] is the outlet should the pressure relief valve in the reducer open (a very rare if not unheard of event), some people leave it open, some put a length of hose directing it towards the ground and...

Thanks for that. BTW, I've had good results from Boston Motorcool for rebuilding rads, recoreing and the like. Prices reasonable too. Last one they did for me was an XJ6 series 1. They'll increase the cores (mine was a two but they made it a three) if you ask, Richard Dilley there on...

Any update? Any pics? I've got '03MY L322 with BMW engine (stop laughing!) Now I've had an engine re-build it seems to go fine. So am wanting to put back the '09 installed Prins LPG system. The reducer was bypassed to make sure LPG wasn't leaking into the coolant system and causing over...

Driving an '03MY L322 with BMW M62TUB engine (Yes! Really Vicki!)

Actually, now I've been driving around a lot in it recently ~ London - Peterboro, Glasgee, Berwick on Tweed, Tweedmouth, London: got up to 25mpg ~ and local trips I do like driving it. Haven't tried the transfer box across rough terrain yet though. Welp, it had to have the last laugh. Still...

Those of us keen to ask Vicki about how she was able to tell everyone viewing 5th Gear that the L322 with M62 was so wonderful, may have wondered where she is now: "Finally, I’m absolutely delighted to welcome a new addition to the Historics team. Those who came to our last auction in March will...

Don't think so. These are from a L322 with the BMW 4.4L M62 V8 Good luck searching...

That's a relief then. Wouldn't want to be thought of as rude https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/ranger-rover-vogue-l322-m62tub44-engine-parts.359591/ :p

First it wouldn't stay on with the mains pressure so I used a circlip. But that broke the plastic input. Haven't looked at it more recently as some decent Albanians have started working at Tesco's car wash (instead of the usual slop-on-someone else's previous dirty-water-with-grains-in-it...

Following engine rebuild have these parts For Sale as spares only: The heads don't appear to have the usual overheat divot between one cylinder and the next. But I bought a pair pre-skimmed. The crank isn't showing any scores at surfaces, but could probably do with a re-sputter. The timing...

Oh! Sorry about that...

Thanks for your encouraging replies... Still have to watch it for the Lambda sensor, air suspension pump thermistor / sensor (?). Have ordered up the rear disks, will check fronts when the rears are done. Then it's onto flush out / change brake fluid. Can you remember whether there's any...

Mechanic saw them fibres showing hanging out so changed them as had to go to Euro Car parts (still open in Peterboro) anyway for a battery (translation: has trade a/c there) Disks will be at their lowest possible useable thickness by now at 116k IMO (always assuming they hadn't been changed...

I thought there was some Adaptation routines included in iCarsoft? Could've sworn I'd used them last year sometime? Mebe I'm losing it ... You? Losing it? Bwa hahahaaaaha! And since when have you have had 50 likes from those old fogies you hang around with in that forum? <crack!>...
