Yes I should have cut the pipe for sure but I didn't know any better at the time, it had the bags on from when I bought the car. I would strongly advise anyone to check the connection on new bags before fitting and if it has this type of connection don't bother because if you ever need to...

Something like this you mean?

I have no idea why they didn't just pop out, very frustrating, I was cursing yesterday :mad:. Maybe its because it had this nut type fixing, this isnt my bag because I had to smash it off but its representative of the connection it had on my rear bags where the pipe went it. Even when I had...

These are the bags I've ordered (Dunlop), not Britpart so hopefully they fit without an issue as thought Dunlop were fitted from manufacture of the vehicle? They haven't arrived yet, should arrive later this week, I just wanted to get the old bags removed in preparation for when the new one's...

Yes cant change things. As you say I will have to cut past the raised collar as the pipe up to it is now no good. Then will have to hope it can still reach. If not I will have to order some pipe and repair joints. Thanks for your help/advice, I appreciate it.

Believe me I pushed very hard and with various screwdrivers and pulled hard on the pipe it would not budge, I spent a good 30 minutes trying on both sides. This wasn't a one try and then give up job.

So after successfully replacing one of the blend motors yesterday, today I started on what I thought would be an easier repair replacing the rear air springs as the back end keeps dropping overnight, removed the timer relay, front stays high the back drops down. Anyway, how wrong I was thinking...

Changed the blend motor today, took me a while but glad I decided to do it. As you said Datatek no need to remove the dash which was a relief, managed to access it after removing the instrument cluster. New blend fitted and now it all works as it should, no more stuck on demist. Thanks to...

Is it a job that can be tackled alone or do you need two people to get the dash out? Never attempted anything like this before but willing to give it a go over the next few weeks if the weather improves!! It will probably take me a long time to do because I am no mechanic but hey its got to be...

Ah ok so distribution blend motor then, take it its not easy to replace then?

Hi all, need some guidance please. The direction control buttons on my heater panel don't work, the heater is stuck on demist mode so only get air to the windscreen. If I press the button to select face or footwell distribution nothing happens, the heater continues to blow the air on the...

Thanks its not the washers I require its the nylon spacer that goes underneath the washer, the spacer is obsolete, just trying to find the dimensions of it.

Sorry to fire up an old thread but its the only one I can find which references this nylon washer/spacer (RVL100040) which is fitted to air suspension compressor bracket stud. Tried to order one from the local LR Retailer but told its obsolete. Does anybody know what the dimensions are for...

Thanks to all for the advice, I think I no which battery to go for now :)

That is the plan, but as some people have stated previously I dont think its possible to completely switch off the immobilisation system (not on GEMS anyway, maybe different on EDC) but if I can get EKA/passive immobilisation switched off that will do for me. Thanks for all the replies and...

I am sure there is more to passive immobilisation than what I am going to quote here but I believe the feature will automatically immobilise the vehicle when the ignition has been turned off even if the vehicle has not been locked with the key or remote handset. As I said sure there is more to...

Thanks but I don't think the filter is available as when I try to add it to the shopping cart it says out of stock

Don't really want the immobilisation completely system switched off. Is it an easy job to remove the ignition barrel as guess the passive coil comes as part of the ignition barrel lock? It must slide out the column somehow as Land Rover sell the ignition lock as a separate part, just need to...

I think its something to do with the passive coil not working as if I lock the car with the key and then unlock with the key after putting the key in the ign it should start but instead I get the message engine disabled press remote.

Vehicle is a 1997 V8 GEMS. The other week I went to fuel the vehicle, once finished I locked the vehicle using the remote handset and went inside to pay. Came back outside and no response from the handset so opened the car using the key but couldn't start the engine so ended up getting a few...
