No problem my mate. Are the seals sat flush with the outer casing or set back. Landrover had a habit of setting seals into some casings by 4-5mm and then some sat flush with casing faces🤔

It looks fine it's just doing my head in Thanks for replying Mark

Just measured it at 5-6 cm which translates to 50mm so they should be enough.

What's the sealing face like on the shaft? Is it scored and if it is can you rub some emery cloth around to smooth it out. If you can get a finger nail in a score line it may be needing to be changed😬

À good question, get in there lad and measure them. As a rule, any bolt length should leave at least 5mm sticking out of the nut once it's tight👍

Which bushes did you use in the end? Yes brute force is the answer, on the upside along as you greased all the bolts it will come apart easy enough next time.

All sorted. Replaced the a frame bushes, bolts, and the rear fulcrum. I have come to learn that heat, angle grinders, and more force than you think are required. All good fun!

If they've rotted, some heat, oil and a good pair of mole grips. Or cut the buggers off with a grinder👌 Then cut and make the old bolts flush and drill then out to fit bolts if you're using the part again 👍

Evaporate Fixed.. ta

From the supermarket. Pour some in a bottle with equal parts ipa alcohol and distilled water and use that on a microfibre cloth (the water so it doesn't evaporate too quick and streak)

evaluate?

Long live the Blessed P38 I says. ;)

Amen to that 👍 👍

Original fronts are slightly out of phase. There has been a lot of energy spent arguing about this over the years, Here's the longest one I think. It's a ripping yarn of logic vs Wammers...

SDD might do it, but never tried because I don't have an L322. You could get an LR Nav screen & temporarily revert to that to configure the car. Then put the aftermarket radio back in, although I wonder if that's what's causing the issues ??

FYI that page is in the Audio & Nav guide after the owners manual. RAVE All Models version that includes early L322.

Alright, I got it to run, so will leave this for future generations wasting a week just like me. Step 1. Key to pos 1. Step 2. Negative battery off for 5 mins. Step 3. Negative back on. Step 4. You will see it turning on the dash without asking...

I don't know why it does it either but it does. When it is in that particular unhappy place the windows, stereo, EAS, wipers don't work and the steering is so heavy. It only lasts for a couple of minutes and then all is good.

Hey all, so update from the frontline... The ECU is with the specialist, having the immobiliser delete done today and should get it back Monday/tuesday... fingers crossed!!!

As far as chain stretch goes, my method is no different to the DTI method, it just allows a more accurate setting.

Could be the matrix inside is breaking down. It can affect running too. I blew MrGorsky's out the back and all over my lawn by flooring it! Yours is twin exhaust? @MrGorsky had sone fun with getting exhaust parts the right size. A certain...

Thanks to all. Finally got the problems solved. Front sensor was an aftermarket new one that didn’t work and ended up putting a Wabco second hand one in and worked. The other problem with the inlet valve open circuit was an internal failure of...

You're developing an ignition switch fetish young man😜

Dodgy ignition switch maybe?

"Main control screen switches off, aircon fans stop working and only warning messages that come on are "camera" and "blind spot". All stay off for a few minutes then come back on. Have also noticed the steering has become heavier recently"...
