Yet another who jumps in with not so much as an introduction....

'Hi my name is X and I live close to blah, I currently have a Y with a fault so I have come to you with a Q...

(Insert groveling for help here)

I know LZ is the best forum for getting help and I promise to pay it forward when I have it fixed so it can help others and I can try and be a helpful member on the forum to help others and lend a hand....

(More groveling to be inserted here)

Many thanks for you help

(Insert mild humour here to prove the poster can take and give a light-hearted joke)'

Range Rovers have been in production for over 40 years (1970 the first was sold IIRC) and during that time many variants have come, gone and still linger....

It would be helpful to know a bit more:

Classic - If so what year, engine, configuration etc
P38 - If so what year, engine, configuration etc
L322 - again as above
L320 - need I repeat myself?

A location could help too, as there may be a local landy owner willing to kick the tyres and point at things knowingly for the princely sum of posh biscuits and mugs of tea....

Jumping straight in with a question is a bit like trying to get yer end away with no foreplay or expensive dinner first....unless you live in Essex, when all it takes is an Escort Cosworth, a burn round the local Tesco car park and pack of B&H...!!!

Dumb question time part two..... Range Rovers have aerial connections to the side windows??

Cheers

 

[Chrisfrain2007]

Aerial is built into drivers side rear most window, some have both sides, but can't remember why they have 2

Diversity...

The radio checks both arieals and selects the one with the stronger signal...

Helps to keep a good signal in built up areas!!

Yep absolutely. I think the more teccie reason was that it helps to reduce multi-pathing when signals bounce of buildings n stuff.

 

[Saint.V8]

^^^^^^ errr....what he said...

You mean signal refraction

 

[Saint.V8]

Errrrrr......

 

[classic kev]

Dunno? I only remember seeing a reference to multi-pathing which I suppose would amount to the same thing. At the end of the day the two aerial system helps to prevent fuzzy reception of FM stereo signals which is about as much as I want and need to know coz I is fik.
