Thanks for welcoming me to the forum guys... currently downloading the manual.
Anyway there are a couple of things that need sorting on the car but what can you expect from a 12 year old car. so any help would be great particularly with the bumper question..
1 - the rear bumper has become wavy / plastic distorted warped. it has not had a shunt or bang or anything but it just appears to have gone wavy. problem is it is rubbing on the lower section of the back door and rubbing off the paint. i was hoping to apply heat to it and flatten it back. thoughts / fixes? is this a common problem?
2 - Some of the lighting to the climate control does not light up but i have been rangerovers.net for that well described solution - so will be attempting.
3 - Passenger side door lock does not actually lock - the pin does not go up or down but when you open the car with the alarm on it still does set the alarm off. you can hear it rattling when driving but the p/o did make me aware.
4 - how easy it to remove the light gaurds at the back? and if i did would it leave holes in the body work that need filling.
5 - p/o added new modern radio in but now the radio does not have reception - how easy is it to hook up the areial etc (never messed with car radios before - total virgin!!).
6 - if i wanted to replace the original range rover decals laettering to the bonnett / rear etc - how easy is it? where can i buy the chrome letters at a good price?
7 - rear wiper does not release washer fluid - front one works. do they have seperate bottles or could it be a motor?
sorry to ask so much but still new and very excited.
thanks guys again
