    VCU is it ok ?

    Has the VCU ever been changed? U may only be 2wd if u have a Beaumont VCU on there!! There should be at least a little tightness on full lock. If none then get off road and test ur 4wd!!!!!

    Will have a closer look at the set up in that arch soon. Its an older one...... 2004 facelift Sport.....Only went for it because of the BMW unit. Its on 78k which I thought was dodgy but it checked out.....It was a demonstrator for 2/3 years.

    Yeah It has had a filter but I gave it to a specialist which turned out to be a mistake!! Can I buy the cradle and lugs to get it secure? I think the other pot is a sedimenter that collects water residue doesn't it? Is that webasto rare on a Sport then?

    Yep I do have that little exhaust pipe thing.....Think I had a similar thing on my X5. no the car was stationary and I got my head in the arch and could feel it a little through the plastic arch lining. I think all the clips and brackets are broken in there and its all pretty loose. Perhaps...

    Hi Graham I am just about to buy one of those ones you have. Is the pipe bit the straight bit thet is on the opposite side to the piece that looks like a tap????? Is that so you don't have to put a screw/ballbearing in the pipe then?..... Why do some have a hole then? Is that so the Light...

    Lol..... :0) I am planning to change all the hoses for silicone ones and will do the EGR at the same time I think. I will have to get some instructions on the EGR blank mind. I have been looking at them on eBay. Is there any particular one to go for?

    Great stuff. I love Landrover products..... (With the exception of that RRS that blew its turbo in less than a week). Does the EGR removal throw up an engine management light then?
