    I do also wonder, if the diffs are that rusty, what are sills & arches like under all the plastic bits !!

    Sounds like the ECU is forgetting what height you last set it to. With the height lock switch on, it should remain at the last height after switch off & when switching on & starting. Does it have the standard timer relay or the 4-pin fudge to...

    Time we opened a book on this. My odds on anyone on LZ knowing the answer to this exact question..... 1000 to 1. I reckon 157,213 to 1 assuming only one member knows the answer, and the OP will know one day. Or should that be 157,214 to 2 ❓

    Yes we like comment from each other even it's not all correct, but it does lead us to try different things. Topics frequently go off-topic but we simply accept it. As you noticed this forum contains much banter, scarcasm & information (some...

    You could try calling Ashcroft Transmissions & ask them ?

    All I can say is JFDI and report back. We all now know it’s not about fuel economy. Nuff said & I say again JFDI.

    Personally I would like to have LPG easily available as one of my P38's came with it installed. There's far few places these day where it's available, plus whoever originally installed mine either never got the certification or it got lost...

    This is getting fun. Maybe the op will give up & try elsewhere, or actually do it & present the results ???? Maybe the diffs will fit or not . . . .who knows ? Will the engine last longer . . . .who knows ? Will many of us buy an L322 that...

    It can’t roll that much. When out of sync Nanocom or testbook puts GEMS into learning mode. It then learns next code from BECM. If it rolls it can only go from 1 to 65534. FFFF or 65535 tells GEMS to go into ignore mode. Either the F-out...

    If we’re not careful this could end up like the “please ignore” thread in the freelander section

    Btw don’t buy a CR-Max on Amazon. Lots of fakes. I’m in Langley near Heathrow. Not CIA.

    I have the Icarsoft CR-Max which apparently uses the same SW as the V3 Land Rover Version, but covers all most cars. Never tried it on an L322 though cos I aint got one. Works well on my Merc C180 & both Freelanders. For my P38's it shows...

    BTW, just for a laugh, I googled the amount of energy required. Surely burning that amy energy in petrol is gonna put the same strain or wear on the engine regardless of rpm. . . . . .but I'm not the right scientist :cool:

    You're always gonna get comment (some good, some bad & some scarcastic) on this forum, but often good info based on extensive knowledge & experience. If we assume the engine uses more fuel when it working harder (regardless of revs) & producing...

    Also at 70mph, surely lowering the revs from 1300 to 1100 is not gonna save much petrol ? Rememer you need a certain amount of energy or fuel to keep a brick shaped car rolling !!

    When you say "it drops to entry height", do you mean it stays up overnight, and then drops to Access or Standard when you start the car ? If so it's not a valve block issue.

    At that price you don't know if the diffs are for sale because they are old & noisy, or how they have been treated.

    I use a set of four 3 ton stands like these, although for most jobs two of the car wheels are on the ground with blocks holding them from moving. Quite stable with either the FL1 or my P38 on them. Wouldn't touch or trust those ratchet...

    Depends on the Cam profile, but yes does need checking & doing. It's whether the heel of the cam is same or lower than the standard that matters. All the guides I have seen requires the tappets to be empty of oil & the gap about 40 thou with...
