What did you do with your Range Rover today

Filled it with my kit and drove her 300 miles home. She didn't skip a beat as ever.

Having a once over noticed small water leak from the bottom of the water pump
One ordered and also tensioner pulley all over the place

R rover 4.6 1999 anyone got a spare going cheap
Temprature staying at 12 o'clock used about 1/2 ltr in a week doesn't always drip

Possibly just the gasket rather than the water pump itself - cheaper to replace.

dropped my rangie off for its gas conversion at leyland lpg ,hope they do a top job feel lost without it up the drive.any body had any dealings with them at the gas place.

If I'm going to change the gasket I might as well change the pump peace of mind i think

Also has anyone has any dealings with bi gas LPG system mine working ok but I think it needs a service

Make sure you get a new pump with a metal impeller rather than plastic (which britpart have) if you like having peace of mind.

It's coming from adventure 4x4 it's a stc4378

Replaced the leaking 4th Injector, no more diesel smell and Injector light no longer flickering on and off. Got back from test drive to burning brake smell. Rear caliper sticking so now on axle stand with wheel off waiting to have a bit of time to investigate!!! Promised to take other half and daughter to the shops this afternoon!!!

Mot and passes with no problems! So treated it to all the oils and a wash

Any excuse to avoid shopping LOL

Picked up my 18" Hurricans from the garage after having the new Nexen Rodians fitted. (Thanks Wil) Swapped the wheels over on the car and took it to the car wash.
Very happy with the Rodians so far, excellent directional stability, as good as the 16"'s and very quiet compared to the Goodyear Wranglers. It feels strange after the tramlining on the old tyres, I had not realised how bad it had become.

Gave fitting my nudge bar a go. Turns out they haven't supplied the fitting kit. Which is less than useful. Going to have to try and fab something. Pain in the arse.

More than my life would have been worth!!! Got back then got under the arch to sort it out.....took longer to find the copper grease than to do the job!

Took it for a trip to the Norfolk broads didn't miss a beat the whole way there and back and averaged 32mpg not bad.

Changed the engine oil in the lovely sunshine today, shell helix hx7 with half a liter of Lucas oil Stabiliser - Purring like a putty cat

New set of NGK Platinum plugs in mine & oh boy, have they made a difference! So smooth on idle & seems to have more poke at low revs.
