Fitted wiper linkage clips to stop the arms popping off

Once again @Alibro I'm very impressed with what you're doing here. Adding bespoke coded devices is next level stuff.

Skynet's coming

I popped to my local tried and tested breakers today to get a hazard light switch. The illumination has failed on mine and I CBA to strip it down and solder in a new LED (or what ever is involved) so for £2 or £3 I thought I'd grab one from a scrapper. I managed to get a switch (don't know if it...

I've often found that despite a broken cable and utterly chewed up mechanisms, operating the switch for a bit allows some slack to then slide the glass down by hand. In my most recent regulator swap I even had to press the switch up for a couple of seconds to do it, despite the window being...

Have a look at RAVE. I would have thought that the instructions for setting it up correctly are in there. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/rave-disk-maintenance-manual.260227/

Nope, it gave me the passenger side! The driver's arm stopped at the up position and the passenger side kept going! Clips were ordered from the car park I was sitting in straight after my post this morning so hopefully they'll arrive tomorrow. To be honest I've been expecting this to happen at...

Gotta love LR ownership. Just driven back from a successful retest and the car celebrates by doing this in the pouring rain...

Yep. They have spacers on but it'll be down to where the LR technician drilled the holes for the lugs as to where they sit when ever they were fitted. Both of mine touch the lenses on the side that they fit into the grill, although I had to modify the NS one a couple of weeks ago as the lugs had...

The Turtle Wax stuff I have got claims to also seal the headlamps to protect them but I'm sceptical so I will get some clear coat in due course. Now that I've got the siezed light guard fixings off and will be replacing them it'll be easy to whip the guards off and do a second polish before...

I'm definitely willing you on with this one Arctic. Keep fighting the good fight.

So I started the job before seeing the advice above but I managed to drill off the heads without melting the plastic. I drilled a little bit at a time, taking advantage of the brisk wind to cool the bolts. I then managed to manipulate the rivnuts out of the wings carefully as there is just...

Yep, it's the two screws holding the guards on to the wing that are the issue. All four of them! I guess they have rivnuts or somethig on them. The headlights will be staying on the car but the guards really do need to come off for me to polish them properly. Hopefully I can get some pliers or...

Yep. Just got to try and get the guards off. The fixings just turn!

Took it for MOT. Failed on headlight image on both sides. I must admit, the lights are cloudy, and there is condensation in them.

Yep, they should. There are a few threads on here about sorting them. My hazard light switch illumination has just failed. I'll probably get a replacement switch from the local scrappy though as although you can replace the LEDs, it's a bit fiddly for me.

Popped back to get the wheel alignment checked. A minor bit of adjusting and we're running straight and true

Today I investigated the propshaft vibration I was experiencing at 55+ mph. I whipped off the front half and found that the front CV joint was pretty rattly. Eureka I thought, that'll be it. Went for a quick spin with the rear half still on and the vibration was still present but slightly less...

After all of the mechanical goings on I did a frivolous cosmetic upgrade today. Badly faded grill and tailgate handle badges replaced with shiny new black and silver ones

I don't think so but I wasn't there to see them do it as I had to go to a site meeting. They didn't need to do the rear though. There is still an everso slight pull to the left but I think that's possibly road camber. Difficult to say though for sure.
