My OBD reader is iCarSoft and it is great. For my specific model of L322 none of the OBD readers or the SSD computers can work on the suspension settings. I spent 2 weeks researching which one to buy. Only the gap tool can do what I need, or a...

I did not imply you let the box get low on fluid, or state it was you, or blame you. You clearly said in the other thread it was low when you bought it, and was going into limp mode. You indicated (not stated) that you were looking at used...

Just hadda cool baff to cool down. Left the baff room door closed because the sun is about to hit the window. Nice and cool in the hall. Upstairs ok but downstairs is coolerer.

On the Discovery thread part of the forum there are various work-arounds that peeps have done to keep the torque convertor in lock-up. I have been tempted because it comes in at just about the legal max on A roads and, as you said, drops out for...

And DIRECTLY after that I said... "But my major concern is running the engine for a long time on a highway at a higher RPM than necessary." Do you have any more gotcha questions?

That's not exactly what Phil said but I'm not going to argue the details with you. Differential changes may have an effect on the gearbox but that will be on every gearbox not anything unique to my specific gearbox. You asked me a specific...

As you can imagine we, not having air con in the house, have become quite good at keeping the house cool. We close windows and curtains when the sun is on them but open doors and windows that are in the shade, which means the north facing side...

Exhibit B.

Yes but as the tailgate is closed and the opening mechanism does not release, then how do you get the tailgate open???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!

I looked at your PDFs. While the gearbox has those two sensors it also has information about which gear it is in, the road speed of the car (from the ABS), the throttle position and the RPM of the engine. I'm not surprised that the eight speed...

Indeed, the square labelled U must be the relay that controls the huge current that an underfloor eletric system uses. And yes, the B or 8 in the box must be the bimetallic bit that changes the switching according to the surrounding temp. So...

As it happens, RRPhil suggested your gearbox was probably on it's way out due to running low on fluid for a while before you bought it ? Mine was a simple question with no ridicule, hidden banter, mickey taking, etc. Just a query because...

Ta mate.

"To get the latch assembly out you need to get the door open." Yes but as the tailgate is closed and the opening mechanism does not release, then how do you get the tailgate open???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that what happened was that when you asked me that question I had already had a lot of nasty condescending comments and I was done being nice. I probably thought that you were asking me for stuff that was not relevant, as a way of...

Another gotcha question!!! You guys are ridiculous. What does that have to do with the topic that I came here to answer? Let me teach you a little trick, when you drain your gearbox in order to change the filter you see how much fluid comes...

Did you rebuild the gearbox yet, or just assume it was low fluid ??

G-wagen, but again heck of a cost.

My loft is gleaming now. I’m just in the process of spraying down everything with a Dettol solution. I’m not the biggest fan of Dettol smell but it’s an improvement on smelling like burnt hair on a turd. Problem is I go up there, spray and come...

No you don't, because I only comment here when I see the little red alert and then I read the next idiot comment. You personally don't live rent free in my head because I don't even know who you are. But given that you have continued to come...

Has anyone got any S3 fold down side steps in the parts box. Come on there must be someone who thought swooping them for Lara Croft Tomb Raider tree sliders was a good idea.. @kermit_rr ?

Oh but I do. 😉

The overnighter (booze cruise) is the only one I can recall ever being available.

If any of you has just started with the presumption that I wasn't an idiot then this whole discussion would've gone a completely different way. My comments are in response to how I was treated and that is a reflection of the people here, not me...

Oh you don't remain rent-free in my head, as all of you idiots are just a big blur to me. One of you said something to imply that I actually remember who says what. I just look at the comment, see how dumb it is, and then respond, while...

Is there only one ferry from aberdean to shetland per day? From wot eye see's this be correct.

Nah, I’ll just remain rent free in your head. Whilst you clearly survive on pay per word. 🙄 You have a good day now. 👍🏽

Actually the person asked me a question that would take 10 seconds to find on Google and I suggested that they look it up because it was a question unrelated to my question. They wanted to know all of the gear ratios for the L322, and they also...

Had a look, a bit tatty but usable, anyone want them make an offer, pictures later.

I am restoring my 1970 series 2b SWB from scratch and wanted to ask if I should sandblast the axle by securing the Diff rim somehow? Or to take them out completely? What are the precautions for both front and back axles. Thank you!
