Don't you understand that I'm not actually having a logical discussion with you as to whether you work for somebody or not?
I am just responding to a personal direct insult that said that because I am self-employed I must be a horrible person...
Haaaaaaaa!!!
Yes my 23 year old Range Rover is uniquely different to BMWs from the same era even though they are using BMW running gear!
Even though the engine in his BMW is a higher displacement version of my actual engine, and his car is from...
Except I have said so many times here that I am not towing and I am not putting a roof rack on and it will just be me and my dogs.
So for my situation it is a great idea, which I explained in the other forum.
So you ignored my explanation in...
I do not need to post pictures of differentials here that I can see have identical mounting points to then have other people here tell me that they are identical.
If somebody wanted to see that themselves then I already told them what the...
The information here is available by searching previous articles.
Any new questions will be attacked for being stupid even when it is not.
So I will not waste my time asking any new questions here, but I still have access to all of the previous...
Just responding to dumb personal insults with laughs. I will continue to do this until it stops being funny. Each day I think I will get sick of doing it, but each day I find the new pathetic insults and gotcha questions still funny!
And I am OK laughing at these guys.
I am not laughing at you because you gave me valuable information.
I literally only glance at this forum for five minutes a few times a day, to see if those guys have finally shut up, or if they are still...
Actually, on another forum someone said they had done this to three cars and it worked out great for them on all of those cars.
And someone knew someone who did this on a car and it worked out great.
So that is four cars out of four that it has...
Please don't waste my time, I already got the answers to all of this, maybe three days ago, and I'm not interested in telling anybody here how this works out.
The question regarding the possibility of this working has been answered twice, on...
Haaa!!!
Thank you for being such a pathetic loser.
Yes, you are right, every person who has their own business only does it because they can't work for less money while being told what to do all day long by somebody else.
Now here is an...
Actually I'm laughing at all of you guys every day given how wound up you all are about somebody asking a simple question.
Just think about this, if no one commented to me with their gotcha questions I would've stopped posting here a long time...
Not retired, work for myself.
I am from an age when swapping parts on a car was easy without computers.
But I keep up with the times which is why I have an OBD reader and why I came here to ask questions about my planned change.
You are right it was the seventh word, it was the first sentence that ended with it.
That fundamentally changes everything, oh wait it doesn't, it makes no difference, and here we have another gotcha comment.
I don't know if you are mentally...
I was not offended by one word, I was offended by a whole series of attacks over several days by many people.
The point was that the belittling started from the very beginning from the very first word.
If that word had been the only thing that...
I could get into that whole thing, buy a laptop from eBay, buy cables, download software etc.
But why would I invest that time when it really just needs someone with the right system to fix it in 10 minutes?
Almost a year ago I was talking with...
Storey Wilson does some cheap software for the early models. Later ones are canbus and use his 4Dcan software. Trying to remember what he called the earlier software. Needs a laptop and cable though.
I did have it on my laptop but the laptop...
I am not really sure why you keep attacking my OBD reader when it is one of the better known brands and there are many videos on YouTube with Range Rover enthusiasts in the UK using this brand with great effect.
Yes it is not the top of the...
You said: "If your diffs new diffs fit physically."
I have enough reason to believe they will fit based on the information that I have received here and another places.
You said: "Your torque converter will spend more time out off lockup."
The...
Thanks. People drive at 1,300 RPM at lower speeds for long periods and have no concern for the water or oil pressure. If it was running at 500 RPM I would consider that fact, but it will be running in a typical rev range.
I'm not going to scrap it immediately. Maybe in a few years time when I leave England. On my one month trip to Portugal and back I needed to not break down and therefore I would prefer to run it at a lower RPM.
I mentioned oil pressure and water pump for cooling. I don't know if it will be an issue but it is something I would keep an eye on in case it becomes an issue. I'm not a motor engineer, I am a tinkerer and I am well aware that these things are...
My gearbox did not have a hard time, it had about three days of missing gear changes on a 10 minute drive, and then I stopped driving it, found the leak, fixed it and filled it up again.
I was not offended by it. But have a look at the second comment. Then the third comment, the fourth comment, the fifth comment, the six comment etc.
But if you want to call it banter then everything that I have said back to you guys is just...
I'm not driving it there to scrap it on this trip, instead I need it to make it all the way there and back without any problems. I have stated repeatedly that this will be a return trip.
It may be another few years before I leave England and at...
I will leave England for somewhere else in Europe and I have three dogs so I will need to drive to my new home.
I will take my current car there and wreck it.
Unless somebody wants to come and buy the car from me and drive the car back to...
I have the o-rings and I will tell you how it goes when I do it.
On the seal I contacted a distributor of SKF and they think that they can help me.
I am waiting to hear back from them next week before I do the work on the car.
