Hi all. I am going to drive a 1974'ish 3door V8 Rangerover from Kenya to Oxford starting next November. I have a nice example, just need to know if anyone has any suggestions for mods etc that I should get involved in. Don't have much money so will need to keep it cheap. So far have done...

Thanks guys. I am guessing it is about 1974 but not sure. Will drive it back to UK and begin the process of finding out, registering and.... TAXING!:eek:

:rolleyes: Ok. Read a lot about how to tell how old a Range Rover is... but can't work out the age of mine. Chassis No 35730305 Eng No 35527103 I am living in Kenya and about to overland it back to England and hopefully register it. Hoping it is tax exempt! Thoughts?

Thanks. Will fit a fan. Thought that would be best. Have seen both blow and suck versions available. Any ideas which is best for a classic without A/C? Suggested brands. Kenlowe I know are good but are v expensive! Any other ideas or improvements people can suggest. Just need it to keep moving...

Hi all. I have been on this forum for years but recently moved to Kenya. After 1 year with a Nissan Patrol I found a 1974 Range Rover headed for the grave. Have saved it and after rebuilding the 3.5 V8 it is brilliant. I just love it... but there is a problem. My 75 KM drive to work accross...

It says on the sticker on the front slam panel. Can't remember but mine was done by the guy doing the aircon system at work!!!!! He does cars on the side! Sorry I can't be more specific!!

I have put the motors and the whole heater unit on e-bay if anyone wants it! I have taken out passengers side. Please get in touch if anyone needs help fitting... it is really easy!

Replying does not allow you to see the thread written!!!! so I will have to try to remember what you said... The servos are not transferable from one side to the other. Mine was stuck on cold, but the replacement I got was set to hot as it happened. I have sent you a personal message if...

How timely. I logged on this morning just to post a new thread about how to replace the motors without going through the full landrover dash removal or the complex one suggested on this site. I have a spare working motor by the way! Basically, the passengers one is really easy. Remove/lower...

Not too bad. You have to take out the intercooler and then it is a bit fidgitty but took me about 3 hours in and out. I am no mechanic but a pretty competent DIY car man! Then it was just a question of getting it regassed. Becareful when taking out the condensor that you do not loose the o rings...

Great help thanks. I have added the K Seal to the coolant and we will see. I checked it tonight and the top hose seems pretty hard! I left it for about 10 mins and checked again and still very hard. Could the cap be faulty? The pressure seems far too high, should the cap not be letting go! I...

Well spotted! Disconected pipe and loads of suff come flooding out. Then with a drill bit by hand drilled out the rest in the tiny expansion bottle tube and with a wire cleared out the tiny hole. In checking, let it run for 10 mins, already hot and when released cap very slowly loads...

E-Bay is the place... I paid £100 for the condensor and £25 for a dryer. Cost me £65 to get the system re gassed.

P38 owners.. min's a 1995 176000 miles with engine overhaul at 122000 miles. I am sure you have all seen this before, but for my sake can anyone help! The coolant level is dropping quite quick, about 1 pint in 100 miles. There are no bubbles in the expansion tank and no deposits in/on the...

:rolleyes: Looking at buying an american import series II Disco. 1999 T 4.0 V8. Should I have any concerns about the car? Are parts the same... it is RHD. Need urgent replies if any knows abouit these things.

Thanks for the reply. You may well be right... but it only started happening a few weeks ago. We use to regularly run it very low... my wife drives it!!! The starting problem I am positive is recent. If they are all doing it... which sounds very true... I would love to trace the cause. I am...

:( My P38 1996 DSE has bubbles in the fuel line after the filter. It is a b**ger to start when left for a few days with a low tank of fuel... but when above 1/4 of a tank there are no bubbles and no starting problems. When nearly empty it can even stall under heavy driving! The lower the fuel...

Many thanks. I will get crawling under it! It is the factory fitted one, it displays on the message board on the dash. My 4.0 Had it as well. I think they all have it. I have searched wiring diagrams and have found nothing! Much appreciated!

Does nobody really know how the trip computer works? Please help. I am about to spend a fortune at main dealer!!!!

I bought it last week! Hard to testify to the operation over 10 years in someone elses ownership. It is not a DT. Any helpful comments?:)
