Hi does can anybody tell me where I can buy a replacement cv boot for the ird to vcs shaft? cheers Glen.

I fitted one of these kits about 2 months ago , its really easy especially as I have lpg so the pump isn't buried below the spare tyre.Its the best £25 ive spent on ebay .Yes it is the same (wabco) pump as the A6 allroad. I fiited one because I was fed up of having to have the suspension reset...

Hi could anyone tell me it I can run my L322 with no ac belt . The bearing on the front of the compressor is on its way out and whilst I am trying to either source a new bearing or another compressor I was think to remove the belt before the bearing lets go , probably at the most inopportune...

If your pump is knackered in a knackered don't despair as you can get rebuild kits for them now . I did mine last week. It cost £25 and once you have it out of the sound proof dome it takes about 15 minutes to fit. My pumps was back to full strength once I had the fault cleared. I got the kit on...

The seatbase sponge doesn't have the heating element moulded into it . I can't workout how to post the scan into this reply but if you send an email to [email protected] I will send it too you by reply. One other tip I was given was make sure you disconnect the battery because of the seat...

I can answer my own question . There must be a lot of L322 out there now with sagging seat bases . I bought a new seat base from the main dealers (yes you did hear right) for £45 including vat . In the LRO International mag issue 7 2011 they show you how to fit it (ok its a dico 3 but that near...

Hi Does anybody know where I could buy a new sponge seat base for my L322 as mine has done the usual and no longer supports on the side that you enter and exit the seat . I am looking for a supplier other than the main dealer . Thanks.

Hi , my 4.4 v8 L322 has recently had an oil change and since then when I start it in the mornings its very tappety for a second or so and once when I started it when it was warm the oil light took so long to go out that the dash warning said stop engine low pressure but was ok when restarted ...

I agree they have a crap rating . I bought my l322 in march and it has a set fitted to the front . I replaced the rears with wranglers as they were worn out . The Iotas have performed ok so far and that includes so heavy rain work as well . I don't suppose they would be up to much offroad and...

Its all about standard fit stuff , like vogue has sat nav , wood trim, heated steering wheel , built in telephone (early ones you have to put sim card in dash somewhere)and different alloys as standard where as with an hse you have a different dash (entertainment bit) unless it has satnav and...

Hi Bemble Yes , as I come to a rest I can feel a slight jolt in the trans and then its smooth and creeps or stops as it should . The trans feels really good apart from this it changes super smooth and really quickly. Cheers Glen

hi Bemble Thanks for the heads up on the fill level . when I say "drop into neutral" I mean when you pull to a stop at say a junction you can feel for a fraction of a second that it doesn't want to disengage the box as if its still wants to pull forward against the brakes . It's not reving or...

hi my 2002 4.4 seems to have trouble dropping into neutral if you pull up quick which gets worse when its hot . i have had the trans oil and filter changed recently if this has any bearing on it . I only got it in march so not all that familiar with it yet , could someone tell me how I check...

Here's my 2 pennies worth . I run an L322 converted to LPG . Its a prinz system fitted in Feb 2011 by Alternative Fuels , river road in Barking Essex . Its my third system ,1st was a prinz in a E200 merc (very early sequential) and 2nd was a bygas in a Grand Voyager (also fitted by alternative...
