Personally I stayed away from the supercharged Jag on the assumption the normally aspirated was less stressed and less work because you don't have to remove the supercharger to get at stuff. That said it never seems to need any work.

4.4 jag motor wasn't available in l320 sport

Are front ARB drop links an easy job on the l322 or is it the usually body off/engine out jobby that needs speshul tools?

If your current ones are even slightly rusty just go straight in with a grinder and cut the nuts off. The Allen key counter hold tends to round off

Thanks. It looks like they should just be a straight swap without touching anything else but thought I'd with an ask.
Notice the pdf says remove wheel AND tire.. that's a relief, i was just going to remove the tyre but sounds like a lot of hard work for nothing

I'll get a pair ordered then! Meyle HD sounds like the way forward, never heard of the name though.. £15.99 each off island.. ill want 4 new nuts i assume as well

I would have thought they came with nuts as the "sheet" said discard nuts

, But as yours is a 2012 i would expect them to be pristine condition and rust free

.

But certainly ask them and get nuts, JLR have a habit of saying "discard nuts/this/that" as a cover arse when in reality they should just say "replace as its going to be rusted and FUBAR"

I've used meyle for various things on various cars, always good stuff

should come with nuts

Thank you guys

I'll get an oil filter too as that'll be due before too long.. need to make the order up to get free delivery

kermit_rr · Jul 21, 2023

Wonder if i need a fool filter.. I've not done it and don't know if/when it's been done, I'd rather do it now than in winter (, currently a mahle one) so maybe it's been done

I've done the fuel filters on the P38's but the Transit has a test button on the filter. The filter has been in there 14 years now to my knowledge and still tests OK.

Anyone know which bit is the bluetooth antenna? Think mine is broked

backinblack · Jul 22, 2023

I think it's inside the bluetooth module not external. Why do you think it's broked?

One of the strips in the back window is visibly broken, it's not one of the heating elephants either.
Reception is rubbish, I've tuned it in and at best you get broken garbled bits. Sometimes you'll get a few minutes oyf you're lucky. I know it's not the broadcast signal because other cars and my home radio pick it up just fine with a small indoor antenna

The strips in the back window have nothing to do with Bluetooth as far a I'm aware but I could well b wrong.
