Will have a look at the plugs this weekend, cheers for the info.

You know what, a LR database of tools needed for particular jobs would be very handy, perhaps Landyzone should start one.

I have two hopefully simple questions which I hope someone might have come across before. 1. After changing gearbox oil and filter on my 2000 DHSE I refilled with engine running and went through the gears filling up at each stage and then back through again. When I looked back under (with fill...

Did mine at the weekend. Points I came across 1. Close eyes when removing the protective cover over the gearbox or you'll get a face full of dirt. 2. Find yourself a T27 bit to undo the nuts holding the filter on, other wise you'll be hunting around for a hour trying to find one and...

Well I don't have to but for peace in the house and a happy wife, a few hours of pain can be endured

Cheers for everyones help with this, have managed to get 2 tickets and so will be able to play with my car for many weekends to come with the extended brownie points this will earn me.

Wembly 4th July

Ha ha, no not yet, they're going for like £250 - £300 a pair which I'm reluctant to pay to see 4 blokes prance about the stage but it should win me a years worth of brownie points if I can pull it off.

An interesting and rather long day spent lying on my back looking at the underneath of my car. Started with engine and radiator flush and while that was heating up did the pollen filters which looke3d like they had never been changed. Then dropped engine oil, gearbox oil and front diff...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does this

Oh I forgot, driving off the drive this morning and the front reg plate fell off, lol

I plan to dump the f'in coolant all over the drive tomorrow and replace with lovely new 50:50 antifreeze coolant (least I think 50:50 is the mix). Would have been more prepared but got everything delivered to my parents as was going up by train and so couldn't check till i got here, oh well...

I was told that the older 2.5's should not have had fog lights fitted as it affected the air getting to the transmission cooler, I think they realised this in 2000 and started fitting fans to the transmission coolers, this is what someone told me anyway.

Emergency passenger ejection system for when they start moaning

Thanks for that, lol. What I meant was, is the deisel a 36mm nut like the V8 or different, you can never tell with LR what added complications there maybe. Was also wondering if need some sort of specialist flat spanner.

So ordered lots of bits and pieces to give new car a through service, car was in manchester at parents so jumped on a train this morning ready to do the following jobs over the weekend: 1. Air filters 2. Pollen filters 3. Fuel Filter 4. Drain gearbox, fit new filter, lucas atf and...

Help. I've got to remove this tomorrow along with intercooler, radiator to replace oil coolers. Question is wiil a big 36mm spanner work on the diesel version as well?

I paid £4k for my 2000 reg with 151k miles. Parkers reckoned a good one (which I think it is depsite a few niggling problems I'm sorting) on this sort of mileage was worth £4,800 but guess it depends what someone will pay. You'll probably find some a lot cheaper than this but if you're...

Friend of mine simply fitted adjustable shocks and is now far better through the corners

I'm changing the ATF cooler and pipes, autobox filter and aft, engine oil and air filters this Saturday and will be flushing the radiator as makes sense to do at the same time. Got RAVE at the ready but any hints or tips would be useful. Printed off a few threads about clearing airlocks...
