My MOT is coming up, and I am probably looking to need a full set of new tyres to do it properly. My question is should I just replace the tyres on each ranging from £100-£190 per tyre, or should I buy a used upgraded set on ebay then sell my old ones. I think this may be the cheaper option, and...

good advice thanks for that. I will try a little petrol in with a full tank and see. Just drove it a minute ago, seems like the uneven revs go away when warm I expect it is a sticky injector. However, what are the symptoms of the low pressure fuel pump dieing?

Just drove home from the gf's. Noticed it was a bit lumpy on start up. Then pulling off at about 1500 rpm the engine seems to be lumpy. You reckon this is a sticky injector or low pressure fuel pump related?

Well I suppose time will tell! I am not an expert at all, so don't really thing I should be telling one what I think is best for an auto gearbox. Thats great saint, hope this will mean an end to your problems. Looing back my car did judder at around 45/50, like it couldn't decide which gear to...

He said it would be a waste of money as he can do a high pressure flush through the oil cooler to remove any possible swarf. He has supported this with a warranty so he must be confident. 30 years in the game must count towards something!

I didn't discuss the finer details with him as I was pushed for time. But that included removal of gearbox, reconditioning of the box and torque converter new oil, flushing of ancillary parts and refitting. I think that is a very good price. Hows your gearbox saint? Behaving itself post fluid...

The beast is back! Hooray! Picked her up yesterday from Solihull- really nice chap- Ken from Transmission Technology. All in £1300.00 (inc. VAT.)! We discussed the need for a new oil cooler and pipes to which he said it would not be necessary- a proper flush would remove any debris. I have taken...

I'm really into it. Sat in one at Riders Land Rover- It's a really nice place to be. The tdv8 powerplants are something else...bloddy amazing. Although the price of £95k did make me choke slightly!

I'm having the td6's done at Transmission Technology Solihull, they were the most reasonable by far & come recommended

We should start a club for L322 gearbox owners with issues... I am sure we would always have good numbers. Or a rescue fund for that matter :doh:

look like its going up to transmission Technology in Solihull- they come highly recommended, and are a lot cheaper than anyone else it seems- evens allowing for transportation!

Hi all Anyone know of a reasonable car transportation service who could take my 02' Rangie up to Solihull in the next couple of days? One way, car has lost drive and is going up country for transmission rebuild. Any help much appreciated. Sam

Thanks will, I will ring him tomorrow. I think I did get a good price on the car, anyone hazard a guess on what its worth with the Gearbox sorted? I suppose its a good selling point!

Yer, your right there pal! Just need to get in sorted now. Toying with the idea of selling it as it is- and cutting my losses, I paid 7.5k 6 months ago, it would probably get 6k now, just a thought

Yer same as mine deasy, I think it is just extra strain put on the battery- heater, heated seats, glow plugs all needed a lot more in the cold, which spooks a sensor when starting up. When I drove mine for half hour, then parked up and started again- I had no problem.

Thanks dogsbody, I will have a look now. Obviously the thing is going to have to be trailered up to whichever garage.

I had this Deasy this week before the gearbox went, I believe it is caused by poor current from the battery. Try trickle charging it over night (don't leave it connected obviously)

Unfortunately I haven't been been able to get hold of Bill today, phone just keeps ringing. Anyone recommend any South West auto specialists? Help is much appreciated.

Nice drive that...

So if I bought that one on ebay from your mate bill, I would also need to source a new LR oil cooler, pipes and oil? Plus find someone prepared to fit it. Is the actually removal and fitting of it a pain? How many garage hours?
