Adrian Flux have just pulled some magic out of the bag so at least bringing the camper home feels a little more realistic.... bless them

Does it make me more brave that it's a 4.0 that I daily drive to work and isn't on LPG ?

The only useful advice i can give is to take it to a mechanic that knows Landrovers. If the garage that did the clutch will do the extra work for free then no loss i guess, but if you are going to be spending more money find a landcover mechanic...

RAC called out and diagnosed clutch were slipping, Off to garage and had Fly wheel, clutch, and he said he had to fit bearing. Drove home struggled to get gear which were fine before but presumed it was me getting used to bite on clutch, but temp...

Warm welcome 2008!

Last week, I listed my 2004 Jag XJ6 on our NZ auction site and someone made an offer which I accepted. It's amazing how people buy cars without looking at them. I never met the guy - all done on the phone and electronic banking. And now, he is...

Looks like quick release clamps for netting down bags or similar to stop rolling around. Note from the bend of the prongs going to a frame off angle to stand proud. Wild guess 🤔

Guessing they are after market tie-down strap anchor points. Off a roof rack perhaps?

Hi everyone, Could anybody help me identify these 2 parts? They are from a Landrover. Made of metal with a plastic screw top. it also slides. I feel like it is made to secure stuff but I really don't know. Thanks in advance Sarah

As far as i know its only tornado thats able to "tune" the bosch ECU's. Without doing the cam its virtually pointless to tune the ecu. But these engines are good ones to learn on, they still quiet simple and there is a huge amount of resources...

It's probably overkill, as the engine is extremely quiet no tappet noise or the dreaded liner tap, more to do with preventative maintenance. However I am at 122,000 miles. Since this car has been hidden away for a few years this is something...

Some here, tempted with the ‘auto’ / max torque one myself...

I would have thought so as a cam change will effect the characteristics of the engine on it's own. Thread carefully as the factory engine would have been to a spec. suited to the model. Remember Newton's third law :rolleyes:

I drilled and helicoiled the studs on mine years ago, not a bad job just awkward access. Dewebbed mine and drilled all the holes bar two slightly oversize, plus used nuts with built in washers that would allow it to shuffle around a bit in use...

FYI for anyone not done it and curious, if bolt snaps in head and you can’t get molegrips on it to twist it. Your choices are, stud/bolt extractor set, drill a pilot hole in the bolt and use the extractor head which should hopefully unscrew the...

It's an easy job if the studs don't snap or damage the threads in the head.

Ah, sorry. I thought you were going to have the lighter on a separate switch (like mine is). Re-read your first post and got it now. perhaps a feed from the ignition (so it is def off with the key out) then going through the high beam switch...

Get a multimeter out and find the 12V live at the ignition key? Run a line from that?

Bloody thing wouldn't post the first two times in the What Did You Do To Your Range Rover thread. Said parsing error. Third time must have ended up here. Bizarre.

Don't forget my costs include the equivalent of Pickfords packing a decade of house / and unpacking in the house in the UK 3 months later.... some yes - some no - I sold a Discovery 4 after 10 years and 100k extra km and got more for it than...

But could you replace it like for like 🤔. J

Kenyan car prices are high, you might get more for them here, than they would be worth in the UK?

Ha - outside Nairobi near Rongai - karibuni :-)

Hi CMR, where in Kenya? I'm north of Nanyuki...

Hi all, Kenya for the moment - I built my 90 soft top 4LV8 on here last decade - now thinking of returning to Yorkshire with my latest 110 overland truck if I can get it insured. Nice to e-meet you all.

Sometimes in life, things don’t happen quite how you want them to. It is how people respond when this happens, that counts and from the PDF Jake attaches, he seems to be polite, and offers as much information as he can (in the snippet), offering...

Hello, Jake here - Ashley, you're right, I didn't respond very quickly but I thought I'd share the conversation at it seems a little miss represented here. (of course confidential details hidden)

i think what i'm trying to say is the what-ifs.. but call me paranoid. a fast first start is critical is critical in this case, you dont want it coughing/spluttering for a min while it warms up when you need to be bedding in a new cam.. for the...

if its e10 petrol, that goes off much quicker and means more 'off' fuel per litre of liquid

Thanks Mark See below the link to the knocking sound.
