Hi there Thanks for that - and good plan!! I actually re-installed the Sat Nav software. I contacted the guy who supplies me Sat Nav software and he provided an older version so I could roll back. I then re-installed my original software and hey-presto - all in English again! The software...

Hi there There is no noise, so it's definitely not engaging. If the unit itself were faulty, would it not come up with a warning on the dash? I also tried resetting the transfer ECU by following this: 1. Turn the ignition key to the on (first) (not start) position. 2. Press the gas pedal to...

Herefordshire, nearest dealership is Hereford Land Rover.

Hi there Very odd... On my it does not say 'set' but instead (from memory) it says 'Config' - and there is defo no option for language in the menu!!! I called LRUK to ask. They advised that there is a "proceedure" - but that I would have to take the car to a local dealership (and pay). I asked...

I've called LRUK and they are getting back to me. They have to relay a message to techincal, and then they call back. very polite and professional, but I know the reply will come back "do it on the head unit", and then I'll need to explain it's a mk4 and so needs to be done outside of the head...

Hi guys I have a 2004 RR L322 4.4 V8. The low gear does not seem to be operating - at all. The switch is on the gear surround (as you know!!), so I popped off the gear surround to check that the connectors underneath were connected ok, and all was fine. The other switch on the surround (hill...

Also, I have the Hawkeye diagnostics scanner, but there is no option to change language there either.

Hi Guys A strange one for you... I have a 2004 L322 RR 4.4 petrol. About a year about I upgraded the Sat Nav to a MK4 unit with the 2011 maps. Now, 2-3 months ago a mechanic did some work for us and disconnected the battery. And ever since then the on-board messages that come up on the green...

Hi Guys Sorry for the delay. Sorted now, but wanted to let you know in case someone else with a similar issue comes up... Yes, Gyro, to answer your questions. It's the 4.4 petrol. No, EVERYTHING internally dies - so yes sat nav screen goes off, all interior lighting - absolutely everything...

Thanks for that - it looks like the battery and cables are the first point to check - so I'll do that when I get home! Has anyone here actually ever experienced the exact same problem as me before. or heard of it? Many thanks! Lion Heart

Hi there Thanks for that - I'll have a good look tonight when I get home!!!! I think the battery is fully clamped - but I'll take a good look and check the cable condition also. Where is the engine earth bond/cable, as I'll check that as well (once I know where it is!) Can I ask a (silly???)...

Hi Guys My personal car is a 2004 L322 Range Rover - and I'm having a starnge issue with it that I hope someone will know the cause - or maybe even experienced the same/similar issues before. For reference, I had a 2010 headlight conversion done about a year ago - but I don't think it's...

So if the diff does not struggle when under uneven load, what would cause the bumping noise/sensation when turning corners at slow speed? It gets worse the harder the steering is locked over. Also, wheel alignment is probably different from tracking. Wheel alignment measures the wheel at lock...

Yes that is correct, but the diff transfers power to the wheels based on those angles being correct. So if one wheel is mis-aligned before steering it will still be misaligned when steering and so the diff will start to struggle. In theory at least. So yes, wheels are at different angles when...

Yes, the wheels must turn at different angles, 100% correct. The tracking is adjusted by the track rods, and these do go out of alignment over time (otherwise you'd never need to get tracking or wheel alignment done). And so I think (although someone else please feel free to comment!!!) it's...
