    Replacing an ancillary/auxiliary belt on a Freelander 3.2 petrol

    Thanks Nodge68 for your reply. I think there's more room in the TD4 engine bay. Anybody who works on the Freelander 2 that you could recommend near South West London?

    Replacing an ancillary/auxiliary belt on a Freelander 3.2 petrol

    Hi all, Has anybody (or their mechanic) in the UK replaced the ancillary/auxiliary belt on the 3.2 engine? My LR2 has just done 103,000 miles.

    P38A V8 GEMS Rocker Cover queries

    Hi, First up please: What metal are the rocker covers made of? When new, were they painted or coated? What's the best way to strip old coating and get them looking good? Are the ones from Rimmer Bros any good? thanks (in advance) for any replies. Alan

    P38A Tailgate lock failure

    Thanks all for your ideas. Now does anybody know how to get inside the tailgate bottom from inside? (The carpet trim buttons are at the bottom covered by that plastic plate!)

    P38A Tailgate lock failure

    Thanks RangeRoller dt I'll check that out. However the button movement seems normal - just that there's no click of the solenoid

    P38A Tailgate lock failure

    1997 Range Rover P38 4.6 HSE Hi, I thought I'd bought the gremlin-free P38. Everything worked, didn't eat batteries etc. Until today when I went to unlock the tailgate. Pressed the button, reassuring noise, the top opened, pressed the button again for the bottom gate, nothing. The spring...

    DSP problems on '03 L322

    Thanks for that – will apply the elbow grease. After all, the unit has been in there since a LR master technician bolted it in 16 years ago!

    DSP problems on '03 L322

    Hi Silver Parrot, I removed the 8mm bolts. The mystery unit moves from side to side. However the DSP won't budge. Is there another bolt or am I missing something?
