Hey Guys... If you plan on replacin ya crankcase filta, take a
look at this on fleebay, only £16,95 posted!

Genuin part to...marshallmotorgroup( 4551)



Got me one ordered

Problem with this is it looks like it's the filter only & not the valve unit which can also block up. Duckworth will sell you the complete unit for £26 inc. postage.

12 quid + vat from jimmy edwards in chester!!!

How to post

Oh no... Dunt say iv fook't up again!!

Can i by tu valve unit seprutly! cuz i god it ordrd now!

Not sure if it can be ordered seperately, but suspect not. Try fitting just your filter & make sure there's no excess crankcase pressure (Apparently removing the dipstick with the engine running & seeing how far up the oil is forced is the test though I've never tried this). If all appears ok, leave it & replace the whole unit in 12k miles time. Best of luck.

Seems a bit tight to me that main stealers for LR are still flogging old type when they must know new one is available.... mind you maybe not knowing some dealers. Some struggle to understand plain english - no sorry sir you need a new engine because you have got a puncture mentality!

right moving on - gear box oil next and play hunt mtf94 or whatever it is!
