Alive Tuning custom remap. Alive have dealers around the country who can send an electronic copy the map to Gary at Alive and he can send back the map which the dealer can then put on the engine ECU. Durham4x4 are one. Another chap near Inverness. I can do it as well.

Are you sure it is coolant and not green dye leaking from the air conditioning evaporator?

It's interesting that Land Rover are still updating (the now obsolete) RAVE. I tend to check every now and again to see what is what now as opposed to then. The Power Steering fluid hasn't changed, but there was this addition (in the GTR/TOPIx) to the ACE which certainly wasn't on any of the...

Paddocks are cheap for a reason. I get calls every week from people asking for a quote on parts. Then, when I give them the bad news, all I get is grief for it being 'more than Paddocks'. :doh:

If your suspension is standard at the moment, the Koni Heavy Track dampers may work for you. If you have non-standard (Arnott airspings, low profile rims or polybushes), then the ride will be too harsh. The best way to get the p38 ride right is go Genuine or at least OEM. There are 2...

You need a special tool to insert the nylon bushing.

On the engine management side - no. As far as I am aware, I don't believe the Thor engine can be modified. Just the earlier GEMS or the Lucas systems. If you wanted to raise the torque, firstly make sure the car is running properly (i.e. the sensors are working, HT leads are working) and...

I'll put my enterprise on here as well then: www.westsomersetlandrovers.com We cover West Somerset and East Devon although as we do engine remaps in conjunction with Alive Tuning, we tend to get customers from further away. We also fit Sky-Tag GPS trackers and are also a distributor for...

I believe the fuel quantity sensor is part of the pump and is not a service part. Another injector pump is required I believe - Is that right?

Sounds like the garage wanted to avoid doing the work and priced it accordingly. I know that customer satisfaction should rate highly, but supplying your own shoddy parts to start off with puts you in a poor position with any garage. The relationship works both ways. You should always ask...

It's telling you it is fuel related and hard to diagnose without T4. It could be the fuel quantity sensor failing, or the fuel temperature sensor. These is a trick to test the fuel temp sensor involving cooling the pump with cold water via a hose pipe. If it starts immediately after cooling...

Use a good quality 15w40 semi synthetic and change it every 6,000 miles along with a new filter.

Your 2000MY is a Thor engine. These can't be chipped unfortunately. I've had a set of performance Tornado chips in since about 2005. You can make up a mile to the gallon or so with them, and power delivery is slightly better, but to be honest, you may be better initially spending the 800 on...

Don't have the SRO number handy, but the part number is WJN000030 for the whole unit. VUB503950 is the non return valve kit. You may also want to put a new WJN500110 in there as well as that part is servicable but not really needed.

Fuel could be leaking back via the fuel filter unit non return valve. I've had one of those recently. The unit the fuel filter screws into has a valve and O-ring. Once these start leaking back, the pipe fills with air and you have a car which won't start easily. Won't show any other signs...

You'll find most advertising cats and stainless systems are selling Double 'S' manufactured systems. There is a lifetime warranty on them provided you have the MOT inspector/garage stamp the paperwork Double S supply with the exhaust. They are looking for exhaust mounting rubber failure. If...

That's the case as I understand it. Chances are the work was done during a normal service, but you need to make sure the later part number is on the invoice.

Hello mate. Have you found out why the ZF failed? Has it failed or is it software/electrical etc.. Anyhoo, I'll offer £50 for the thing.

They are weak. They aren't a ZF unit like all other auto Range Rovers. I think LR must have been having another 'accountant moment'. Chipping an M57 engine is usually why they fail.

Actually forget that. It's not a recall. It's a Service Action for 2002-2006MY L322. Steering column tilt mechanism upgrade - A028V3
