Like I said, you people throw out insults but you don't have any facts.
Literally telling me that the gearbox will not go into fifth gear when it has a manual function that can be moved into fifth gear.
But then finding it offensive when I...
My concern is RPM and having the engine doing less constant revolutions over a one month trip. Obviously driving constantly at 5,000 RPM puts more wear on an engine than driving constantly at 1,000 RPM. That is not something that I need to debate...
I agree but if I look at the torque curve for my VANOS equipped engine it will be OK.
I posted the torque curve earlier on here.
Here it is again to save you looking for it.
I'm not playing the victim, all of you people crying because I won't listen to your dumb ideas are playing the victim.
Don't you get it, none of you have the answer to the question that I asked so instead of admitting that you don't know what...
I would assume so but the problem is that the oil is coming out of the gap between the solenoid and the transfer case so I have to know the parts to buy before I pull it apart otherwise the car cannot drive and I need it to be able to drive.
It...
I have an enormous amount of mechanical experience but I don't really care to justify it to you. I don't know anyone who doesn't understand that a lower RPM for many hours is better for the longevity of an engine.
I am not talking about an...
I used to live in Portugal and I drove a Renault Cleo from there to England 10 years ago, so I know the trip reasonable well.
I will visit a friend in Belgium and a friend in Switzerland on the journey so the ferry is not an option.
I will also...
Maybe you should've read a little bit more because I need to know if the diff will fit and everyone seems to want to talk about everything else.
People keep telling me to just do it but there is no point in just doing it if it won't fit...
I don't think you would believe anything that I showed you. Which is why I said I wouldn't waste my time answering your questions.
The 2.76 diff exists, which is all that matters. Who cares which car it was put in? I just need to know if it will...
Google search "l322 diff ratio 2.76".
Answer in the attached image.
Time spent 30 seconds.
(I already said search the diff ratio on google but I guess you did not do that.)
Like I said before, RRPhil had actual knowledge and was happy to give me that knowledge, on another forum, and admit to what he did not know. Whereas you people have no actual knowledge and yet spent yesterday lecturing me as if you were geniuses...
And I have said maybe 10 times that there is no point in me JFDI if I do not know if the diffs will fit when somebody might know the answer and can just tell me.
I have no rush to do this job. I am not going for several months. I may not even...
Amazon are awesome with returns so if I got a fake one I could just return it.
I will wait to hear back from iCarSoft and the other people before doing anything more.
It has been raised up for a year and it has not caused too many problems so I...
Somebody might know if the diffs fit or not which is why I came here.
I stupidly thought that I could just ask a simple question and get an answer rather than getting attacked for asking a question.
Don't worry I'll leave this place to people...
And obviously because I have not done it myself I have come here to ask for advice from someone who may have done it or who may have knowledge even though they have not done it.
As you are not either of those people I have no idea why you came...
BMW did not look 23 years into to future and know everything about my current 150k miles engine when they chose the ZF5HP gearbox and diff ratios for the L322. Haaaaaaaaaaa.
This is laughable. They upgraded to a ZF6 then a ZF8. If the ZF5 was...
£200 and a few hours to change the diffs versus how much money and time for an LPG kit when I said that my MAIN concern is the engine RPM and not about saving money?
Higher revs needed, just put the transfer box into low range.
I have 20 inch...
The wait will be over when someone who knows if the 2.76 diff will fit into my 2002 Range Rover L322 or not answers the question. Or if someone knows of some other technical mechanical reason why that diff cannot go in my car. As opposed to...
Why would I go and buy two differentials that might not fit when I can just come here and ask a question that somebody might know the answer to? This has nothing to do with my gearbox, it has to do with my engine. I don't understand why you think...
I don't know what you are talking about. The L322 is one of the most modified Range Rovers available. People put manual gear boxes in them, coil over spring suspensions, raise them up, change the wheels, reprogram the engine computer, make the...
Leave where? This forum? The place where I came to get answers about the ability to change over the differentials, which has not yet been answered?
Are you the only person that can answer this question? Are they not other people that might see...
I meant 1,500. That is not high. It is not low. It is what it is. But 1,100 is lower. That is a fact.
I have a 23 year-old engine in a car that has probably had a little maintenance in the 150k miles that it has done.
I will not spend the time...
Thanks, I understand. It looks like there is an internal rubber seal that is not just an O-ring. That could be where the leak is coming from.
Also there might be a gasket that is not shown in the picture of the replacement solenoid, which could...
It's a common design which I see a lot on bus air brake components. It'll be a thin O ring. If you ccn slacken the 2 halves and get in there with a sliding vernier it should be possible to get the internal diameter. But without that measurement I...
I can literally see from the picture that the internal O-ring is not circular.
Maybe you should have a look at the picture.
If I wanted to just get in there and do it then I would not have come on this forum to ask questions about it, I would...
I emailed iCarSoft about that issue.
We shall see what they say.
I also emailed a company in England that sells a lot of diagnostic equipment that might know if the V3 works on my car or not.
