What did you do with your Range Rover today

Had a little road trip in the Japanese mountain side... 443km back and forth and still have 132km left of Range (YEAH!). Also ordered a Fuel Valve Purge from BritCar

Bit fiddly but actually took less than 20 minutes.

Got the first piece of "piano black" back in place. Looking good so doing the rest of the car.

Let the fun begin!

Got mine through the MOT at the second attempt, Yeh!! It had failed at its 1st attempt on a worn RHS rear upper outer bush, so I got that bush replaced on both sides to be safe via our trusty Land Rover dealer in Belfast. Came in at a reasonable £194 + Vat all in.

just bought front door lock and rf receiver

Driver's side is most difficult to do as you have an extra connector for the key you can use on the driver's door. When taking mine out there was a piece of metal in the way (on the motor) preventing me from undoing one of the connectors. I noticed on the replacement latch this piece wasn't there plus in the DIY guide they mention sawing it off. I just bent it out the way to remove the connector. It will be obvious what I'm waffling on about when you go to replace it.

Courier charges to you are £75+vat

f**k that! :lol:

Put the glass back on my mirror... because some bastard pulled my mirror the other way and tried to break it (actually it works better now, so I must have put it in wrong last time lol) but anyway that not the point!!!

went in to the stealers today (with my l322) air susp.inactive showing on dash, I wanted to know if there were any updates 0n software he said no but the compressor was the fault quoted me 811 quid to do the job (you have to laff dont ya.

Yes you do. Mine told me £280 +vat for 4 UJ's! Said they are "better quality than any aftermarket parts".

£800 for a compressor is a **** take compressor is only £300 so £500 fitting for a push fit pipe a multi plug and 3 bolts .

Have a look for the Wheeler Dealers thread some body does a repair kit for them.
