    Winter tyres for a Range Rover?

    Used All seasons for many years and figured people who wasted their money on winter tires were daft( drove a big 3/4 ton Ford 4x4.). That is until I actually bought snow tires. I was converted in about 10 minutes. The softer rubber and differentiated treads make them superior to M&S. Studies...

    New diesel 110 help

    Get a compression test. Look at maintenance history, if you can. Colour of oil? Cold starting? Exhaust colour? Caution is best exercised before you buy. If its running hot, run away. LOL. Its easy to check actual temperature with those little infrared guns.

    Well, hi-lift jacks, they’re ****ing mental

    Are Hi-Lift Jacks dangerous. What else would you call a device capable of lifting your vehicle 3' vertically and enabling you to tip it over to get your vehicle over to get it out of deep ruts? Try getting under your car to jack on an axle when the axles are resting in mud. So, Jack alls...

    Electric Fan?

    Fitted electric when swapping from 2.5 NA to 300tdi. Kit came with fan. No noticeable difference in performance as i had no benchmark, but theoretical improvement in MPG. Apparently it requires a few hp to turn the fan so it makes sense it will affect fuel economy.

    Head tightening sequence - Elring or Haynes?

    Old-school shop teacher taught me Centre out in spiral. He said because it doesn't set up stresses between bolts which can lead to head warp, or cracking.

    Pulled for going too slow on the motorway

    From what I understand on a divided highway with two or more lanes, Right is the SLOW lane and, Left is for passing, or for those driving faster. If truckers complain about having to pass surely they are capable of passing a slower moving vehicle. In no way can this speed be considered a hazard...

    Gearbox crossmember removal

    My Defender was not welded, though an ex MOD vehicle. It was very tight but I had a small sledge and pounded on it, after removing bolts and it came out reluctantly.

    Dynamat noise underbonnet on Defender

    I used the garbage roof flashing stuff. Did interior floor boards up to tunnel. Additionally replaced boot rubber and replaced the foam gasket around the shifter. As well, did under the hood. As stated above I'd say a 1/3rd reduction in noise. Have yet to do door panels and roof. Its a pickup so...
