I was going to buy the Laser tool about £400 which is specially designed for the Range Rover as I want to make life easier for myself. Always buy the best parts I can get . The mot isnt due until spring so gives me a bit of time to save up. Will go through as many components as I can replacing...

When I bought the car I drained them and replaced the fluid. Will recheck them tomorrow

So removed rubber tread from side steps derusted where necessary painted them with matt black rustoleum and then on the underside covered the new paint with black stone chip. Have now fitted them onto the car. Replaced the nearside hub and front driveshaft oil seal. Greased the nipples with my...

Driving along I can hear a whining noise but not when I use the accelerator. I greased all my nipples today . Would this have anything to do with it? Sounds like it's coming from the front. Thanks as always

All sorted . Bought a new torque wrench to ensure the correct tightness. The loctite was to secure the hub carrier bolts . Replaced the axle oil seal as well. Next job is to take it all apart again to do the ball joints. :eek: Had some quotes in the region of £600 to do all 4 outer ones and a...

I order mine from http://www.shop4autoparts.net/. I got a new hub rather than a wheel bearing . The only thing is you don't get a replacement hub nut. I noticed that when I took off the old hub the driveshaft is easy to get out . My one has a slightly damaged oil seal so have ordered one of...

This will be my next big big step as I've got coils too. Spoke to a specialist and he said he has got every confidence in the air system .

Removed the old hub tonight. It all came apart quite easily but the hub flange had seized to the carrier. Loads of wd40 and loads of walloping and off it came. Fitted the new hub but will take it off again as I will change the driveshaft oil seal as it seems a bit deformed. Ordered new genuine...

Thanks for that will ring them in the morning. Prefer to get a hub complete rather than faff about beating things to pieces and wasting time and money

Sorry. P38 4.6 1998 20" wheels fitted

I thought these cars couldn't be sold on due to security implications and they were destroyed. I could be wrong though.

When I fitted my new wheels I rocked them to make sure they were seated properly before lowering the car . The nearside front the wheel was firm on the hub but the whole hub moved. When driving it does get quite twitchy on the steering and also the abs and traction faults are displayed. So had a...

Cheers Can it be cleaned easily?

Hadn't used the rover for a couple of days, took it out last night got to a junction went to pull away and the revs just dropped then picked up again . Any clues? It did it a couple of more times then sorted itself out. I've fitted new plugs and leads but don't know if it was running on gas at...

Today was spent putting my new brakes on the car as follows, Brembo rear discs, pattern front discs (Brembo out of stock) , new pads all round, new caliper sliders all round as most of mine were seized, new disc fixing screws and then the 20" Range Rover Sport diamond finish alloys with genuine...

Bought a replacement front bumper painted blue as my plain one was damaged so spent a few hours rubbing it down ready for all the painting processes. Also fitted replacement headlight mounting bracket. Waiting for brake parts to come through.

Hi Thanks for the replies, pressed brake pedal 35 times to make sure then had to loosen my lpg body to get to the brake pump then removed the 3 nuts holding it down and twisted it so I could get a 22mm spanner underneath. All sorted now.

Been busy lately, fitted the replacement brake accumulator then made a start on changing the discs and pads. The brake disc retaining screw heads where all butchered so had to beat them off and so far have found 3 seized caliper sliders (still have a rear caliper to take off), so have ordered...

Thanks for the help . Will pump the pedal and swap it over.:)

Need to change the brake accumulator. Is there any special precautions to be taken ? Is it under any pressure. Thanks
