    Carrying spare parts in your Landy

    Sleeping bag, food, water - for me.... Jump leads, tow rope (to help others :) ), bulbs, fuses, tools (socket set etc), coolant, 5 litres oil (engine), windscreen washer fluid, belts, filters (oil, fuel, air), plus the usual spare wheel etc. Probably a few extra's as I tend to throw useful...

    electrical smoke!?

    Yes indeed, it is very true. Electrical smoke is very expensive, the more you have, the more you generally have to pay to put it back in it's containers (or buy new ones) :D

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Dreamed of what I'm going to do to it when I get back home next week ;) Not that kind of dream ye dirty barstuards. I have to replace the rear hight sensors for the air system. The links sort of rotted away :mad:

    Land Rovers and L.A.

    I was in San Diego and Santa Clara a few years back when they had snow the first time for something 40 years. I haven't laughed so much in years. They are totally unprepared and the drivers have absolutely no idea what to do with half an inch of snow on the road. People sliding off the roads...

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Ride got a bit lumpy on my way home today. Found one of the air suspension ride height sensor arms hanging loose as the bush was perished. Bugger. :mad: Other side doesn't look very good either :( Ah well, more money down the Land drain. I love me Landy.

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Just spent 2 hours under my Disco 2 getting to and cleaning the connector for the xyz switch on auto box. Didn't help :( Ordered new xyz switch, they are damn expensive these days. Should have bought one 3 years ago, they were 170 squids then, genuine Land Rover as well. Ah well :rolleyes:

    Never thought i'd hear it!

    Unless it's a v8 with all the leccy boxes and an intermittent crankshaft position sensor. 30 miles - stop - wait 2 hours - 30 miles - stop - wait 2 hours..... Nothing showed up on diagnostics either. Argh... Very frustrating (and long) night that was. Love me Landy's.
