Got the old girl back today...GEMM have really done a good and very thorough job :) running like a dream! :) New timing chains/guides/tensioners/oil separator/water pump/hoses/drive belt/Vanos units cleaned with new seals etc, etc...two full invoice pages detailing all the parts!! Think...

Thanks Saint.V8, the car has been a bloody nightmare...over the last nine months it has needed new radiator, new alternator, major gearbox service now all this...has really put me off Range Rovers, my last seven vehicles have all been P38s, diesel and LPG engines which I have really enjoyed and...

Quick update.....turned out to be timing chain guide/s breaking up and noisy Vanos units. Has now been with GEMM 4X4, Larbert for nearly ELEVEN weeks! New chains, guides etc. fitted and both Vanos units sent for ultra-sonic cleaning. Running perfectly now. Asked them to renew MOT.....still...

Thanks holidaychicken, I honestly wish I had kept my Overfinch P38 now, had it for nearly three years and apart from one nasty bill it was very reliable and a real pleasure to own! The L322 is definitely better to drive but the bills are proving to be too much...real shame! I will update the...

Thanks for the replies. It's away today on an AA Relay truck...didn't want to risk it! GEMM 4 X 4 will assess what's required. Will update the thread when I know. Away to smash up the piggy bank (again) :)

The L322 woes continue! 2002 4.4 with lpg conversion, showing 98,000 miles. Started the V8 the other morning and noticed a horrible rattling noise! After a few seconds when the revs reduced it sounded like a diesel engine at idle! I've had some erratic idling recently. I am now left...

Thanks guys! Got CHECK NUMBER PLATE LIGHT and CHECK REAR LIGHTS messages today...nothing wrong with rear lights or number plate lights! Will have a look at connections etc tomorrow if snow stays away!

Thank you very much for your suggestions. The lighting problem has been there for some time on a very intermittent basis but became significantly worse following replacement of the alternator. I will check the items you suggest and report back.

No, not yet. Out in it again tonight and the fault is now intermittent. With dipped lights engaged the main beam lights are flickering on and off. Previously the main beam lights were engaging with the dipped lights all the time but not to full brightness.

Had the vehicle our last night and the lights were back to normal, working as they should......but......this morning back malfunctioning! :mad:

Rimmer Bros have confirmed. As you say, the current part number is YWC500282 (not sure where he got YWC000500 from!). So, i need used part number YWC000540 which was previously installed in a Vogue with xenon headlights. I'll let you know how it goes. Many thanks, once again.

More confusion! The LCM I am looking at in my vehicle appears to be YWC000540 but I am now advised I need part number YWC000500 (by Rimmer Bros). YWC000500 does not look anything like YWC000540.....can anybody clarify please? Hope this makes sense :o Thanks again?

Thanks again! When you say 'like for like' are there two types of LCM? One for xenon and one for halogen?

Thanks again, removed and looks ok, no signs of dampness. I know this has been covered in other threads but I would just like to be clear. If I fit a 'known to be working as it should' used LCM what will the effect be? I have read about the 'tampered with' dot and the mileage recording but...

Thank you, found it ok. How do I remove it? I can see one bolt at the bottom of the unit but is there one at the top?

Thanks guys, where is the LCU located please? Cheers

I have a 2002 L322 V8 Vogue with xenon headlights which has developed a problem. It quite difficult to explain but here goes! When I switch the dipped beam on all is ok, however after a few minutes the full beam light on the dash illuminates. If I push the lever forward the blue light remains...

Tried this but ended up with a blank display, thanks for the suggestion.

Only downside seems to be the satnav has no vocal instructions. I have tried the volume adjustment but no difference. Is this to be expected? Thanks again.

Many thanks Lyndasbottom, plugged the blue connector from the TV module into the satnav and the display is back!!! Missing from the menu is the TV option now which didn't work anyway. Everything else is as it was including the satnav. I assume from this that the TV module is fecked. Thank you...
