    Location of 1991 3.9 efi starter motor relay?

    Thanks Kev. Have ordered a replacement starter. Figure that with all the deep water / mud, I will need one sooner or later even if I can get the old one to work. Now just need time to try a swap.

    hunting, no throttle response, backfire :-(

    If the MAF or TPS have failed, these would cause misfires. Other issues likely secondary to poor running of engine / alternator.

    Drinking oil

    Smoke after warm idling could point to worn valve guides. Not sure if these engines are susceptible to that though.

    I got time to look under the lower dash panel today. The relays were in a slightly different order but can only assume this is because the car doesn't have the heated front screen. (I found the leads marked L I S and W as per the RAVE diagaram, with S leading to the yellow starter solenoid...

    Thanks for the information and yes, you're correct, it's a Range Rover. I'll edit the title thanks. That's a bank of relays I haven't spotted so far. Will have a look tomorrow when it's light.

    Hello all. Hope Christmas was good. I'm in a little bit of a hurry and have a starting issue..... always the way :confused: Car has been running well and starting on the button, even with the off road abuse it's had recently :) Luckily, I was most of the way home from a great day's...

    Steering Guard selection

    Thanks Rob. Sounds like sage advice. Don't want to spend ridiculous amounts but figure if I go with steel rather than aluminium, should be able to handle a bit more abuse.

    Steering Guard selection

    Hi All hope I'm not flogging the proverbial horse here, but looking to fit a steering guard to my 91 Classic. I think, on price, I've narrowed it down to one of these two but open to suggestions: JC736 - Steering Guard Range Rover Classic and Discovery 1 RHD/LHD with Jacking Points and...

    1989 RRC - what is the rocker switch on the steering column?

    Haha. Will have to fabricate a click collector next, they might be valuable!

    1989 RRC - what is the rocker switch on the steering column?

    That was my first thought when he asked, although it doesn't appear to be for that. On my 1991 vogue I do have a push button in that location to open the fuel flap. I.e on LHS of column on RHD car. Mystery remains! Cheers

    1989 RRC - what is the rocker switch on the steering column?

    A friend of mine has a 1989 RRC vogue 3.9. This is LHD and from the Greek market. He has a rocker switch on the LHS of his steering column that looks to be factory. It has a 1 and 0 on it. When pressed, there is apparently a click but he can't figure out what it's actually doing. Is this...
