    L322 Front and rear windscreen heaters not working

    If you want to test the rear one quickly, you can take a multimeter and test continuity across the screen from each side and then measure the voltage at the screen. For the rear, you don't need to strip anything down, just put the probe on the heater element on the passenger (left side of the...

    Gearbox service

    I used Dartford Transmissions when I had mine done. It was at the peak of the fuel/oil prices at about £585 all in. They did a flush on it too so you end up throwing away about 3l oil once you've run it up and then dropped the pan to change the filter. That was a ZF6 and a couple of years...

    L322 Turbo Actuator stuck?

    When I replaced mine I bought them from LR, Couldn't find a set of silicone ones in black for the 3.6 but I thought they were very reasonable at about £106 for the pair from the dealer. Yous should be all good for a while now.

    L322 Turbo Actuator stuck?

    If it's a 3.6 they are parallel, the 4.4 has a sequential setup.

    L322 Turbo Actuator stuck?

    Or a split manifold. What is the rest of the of error on P023D? Is it a boost correlation issue? That will be different to the 4.4 as the 3.6 runs the turbos in parallel not sequential so there's a different algorithm for it.

    L322 Battery Drain

    Do you need to code the increased battery size on a 2004? Not sure if it has BMS at that age, if it does though that could go some way to explaining why the batteries aren't lasting couldn't it? I expect the car is too old but perhaps someone with knowledge on the earlier ones could weigh-in...

    L322 Battery Drain

    We do get pedantic about the "petrol" thing though. It's petroleum spirit and it's a liquid so calling it Gas just seems wrong to us :) Opens popcorn to watch the debate from here... Already regrets mentioning that!

    L322 Battery Drain

    Post #1 first line says 2004 HSE. That'll be a 2004 HSE L322 then. Not sure what difference it would make to any of us if it were petrol or diesel but as the OP said he's in Massachusetts I'd suggest it very unlikely to be a diesel leaving us with the most likely option of the 4.4 Petrol V8...

    L322 Battery Drain

    What was it charging at? A friend of mine had an alternator that had a failing rectifier in it, it would show as charging at around 14.4v and then spike to almost 20v every so often. It's probably worth checking that you're getting a consistent voltage when idling and get someone to rev the...

    L322 Battery Drain

    The Autozone guy has never seen an alternator then! There has to be something wrong with your battery here though. If you drove it for that time and it's charging correctly you'd have to have the biggest current draw to kill it in the time you were in the shop! At rate of discharge you...

    L322 2011 L322 Xenon headlights not moving

    Neither of my facelift Vogues have had this feature but the 2008 Vogue SE did. The SE would adjust the lights up and down, then go slightly cross-eyed, it was quite cool I guess. Never noticed the difference in normal driving though.

    L322 Battery Drain

    I don't know if I am reading this correctly so forgive me if I am missing something here but I'm wondering about your test conditions on the battery drain. The later L322s are brutal on the battery due to the number of things that liven up when you unlock and open the car so I expect you'll see...

    L322 TD6 lost all drive

    It does rather sound like the gearbox has failed. I've heard they are the weakest of them with the 5 speed. My only experience similar was with an Old Ford Scorpio that drove seemingly perfectly all the way to work one morning (around an hour and 35 miles), went to reverse into a parking space...

    Disco 4 (LR4) Fuel guage issue

    Thought I'd better update this thread to explain what happened here. After removing the tank and checking all of the connections, sender operation and wiring back to the the Body Control Module and being unable to find a fault, we considered replacing the BCM. Whilst having GapIID plugged in...

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    Had a new rear screen fitted as the heater elements mostly didn't work and the rear wiper had done a fair bit of damage to it. Not at all thrilled to find the spoiler resting on the roof without so much as a cloth to protect the paint or the ivory parcel shelf being used as a work bench even...

    Disco 4 (LR4) Fuel guage issue

    I'm looking for a bit more help here please. We've had another crack at it this weekend and we're still no closer to finding the fault but perhaps understand it a little better, so, here's the current situation. Drained the tank down and removed it. Done a continuity check across the wires...

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    Our 2013 D4 has an AGM battery from the factory and is coded as such. My 2011 4.4 TDV8 vogue also has an AGM battery and that is correct too but my 2010 3.6 didn't, that was a normal lead-acid battery. I would suggest that you have now fitted the wrong type of battery to the Discovery, put the...

    Make sure you replaced it with an AGM battery and you updated/reset the BMS

    L322 stuck in park and handbrake stuck! Coolant Tanks also?

    I think you'll find there is a handbrake release in the boot, pull the right side trim out to expose the rear fusebox and look in towards the front of the car near the top of the wheel well. There's the emergency filler cap release with a plastic handle (I think) and the handbrake one also...

    Speedometer in km/h

    Change the fuel computer to L/100km and a KM/H speedo appears in the bottom of the speedo. It's in the handbook. I've coded the MPH one input mine full time but you can see where it is here
