What do you call a Micra with two exhausts? A wheelbarrow!! :hurt:

LOL!! Slow and silly!! Micra Slower and ???? Range Rover Vogue So, be honest...which would you choose?

:hysterically_laughi

Yep, very true. When I first got my RR I thought of getting it chipped/remapped, but decided against it very quickly. I'm fortunate that: If I want to go fast I just jump in the wife's Mondeo ST220 (it used to be mine, but it now has her private plate on it!!)! If I want to go really...

+1 on that Datatek!! I get 26+mpg on my L322, just cos of the way I drive it. Smooth and gradual acceleration, reading the road ahead, no sharp brakeing and accelerating. I always have to laugh at the people who say my Rangie must slurp fuel like there's no tomorrow, then are well surprised...

OUCH!! 390Nm Engine...340Nm Gearbox ... + Performance Chip(??Nm) = Overstressing!! One eventual outcome, heartache and empty wallet!!

I will admit, the ZF box is a lot stronger than the GM box, that's why they put a different box on the 4.4 V8's. The doozel RR's should never be driven like the petrols, which is what we all want to do!! Power without the fuel cost!! I am 100% for preventative maintenance, which is why I have...

Gearbox rebuild is no peace of mind, simply because the cost of RS2000CUSTOMs 'preventative maintenance' was the same as rebuilding the gearbox once failure has happened. Do a gearbox oil and filter change and get whoever does it to look at the 'old' oil. If there's a lot of bits or (worse...

Bin lucky as managed to get a vgc second hand rack from ebay, checked it out before getting it fitted and it's mint!! Labour charge cost £250.00 for fitting all the parts!! Got my local indy garage to do it, as they're the best bunch of guys around!! 7.5 hours labour in total (included fitting...

+1 cheers for the info, it's deffo worth sharing. There are so many common parts used on diferent types and makes of motors that can be swapped around, so if it can save us money it's definately worth a plug!! P.S. welcome to the (expensive!! LOL) land of the Range Rover:welcome2:

Just picked up the girl after the replacement of the steering rack, track rod ends, lower steering column and flexible coupling. Took the rangie out for a test drive and what a difference!! She feels like a new motor, smooth and silky steering, responsive and no more clunks, cracks or wobbles...

Wonder if they have fixed the broken HDC switch lever, if you look carefully you can see it's been snapped off!!

The roof antenna came in on the 2005 update, when they went to the denso satnav. It's the easiest way to tell whether the L322 has the BMW or Denso system. I think it has something to do with going to the fibre optic system? Correct me if I'm wrong. Anyhoo, wonder if Wheeler Dealers...

Got a second-hand steering rack off fleabay, just taken off the old track rod ends and put new gaiter boots on. Gonna replace my current rack, as there's a bit of steering play. Replacing: Steering rack, putting on new track rod ends, new lower column assembly and new flexible coupling on...

I don't use mechanical car washes after I had the drivers headlight wiper arm bent and the wiper blade torn off from using a mech washer. Do the car by hand now, much safer.

Wheeler Dealers talking BS about the age, it's deffo a pre 2005 model L322. Look at image 10 carefully on the website promo, it has a pre 2005 BMW satnav unit, not the Denso touchscreen system fitted to the 2005 update models which came out at the end of 2004 (54 reg models onwards). Also...

Glad to hear it's sorted. For the TV, do a google search for digital tv module for the l322, if you've got the touch screen sat nav (which you should have if it's a 2005 model l322) you can just get a hold of the module to plug in in place of the old analogue module. Can't remember the site...

It's more than likely some 'scrote' has smacked the lens cover with a stone, or a small hammer, and put a hole in it. Apparently it's a common thing in cities/urban areas. The little barstewards think it's a larf causing damage like this, with little chance of being caught in the act, as the...

Yep, it would be a useful exercise and pics would be good. I had to replace a rear light unit on the drivers side when I bought my motor last year, as some little 'scrote' had broken the plastic lens cover (smacked the cover with a stone and put a hole in it). I know a place in Newcastle than...

Just given her a full clean inside and out, and fitted my new OEM Range Rover Rubber Mats. She's lookin good now, until tomorrow when the pigeons in the trees above the car park have finished ****ting on her. Bastards!!
