Thank You

Big thank to to Rod (?) from Bebbington in the red 110 who stopped when my
RR decided to reject the recent heart transplant by dumping it's ATF from
the g box.
Nice to know that if a bonnet is up, the old Land Rover code still applies
to Range Rovers as well! I think the Grizzly tires might have helped though!

Cheers Mate

ah, but they may have silly niggling faults, but they rarely actually stop.

clutch fluid got low on mine. dunno why, yet. I've topped it up, will see
if it goes low again. It's about to have gearbox swap, all being well, and
I was thinking of replacing the clutch and possibly the lever which can fail
at the same time. p'raps I'd better order a slave cylinder as well...

When I had the same symptoms it was indeed the slave cylinder.

I'm not sure if this is one of the ones with a clutch release arm that's
prone to fail. Will have to look into this.
