It took the full 1.5L when it was filled again.

We changed the transfer case and diff oils on mine a few weeks ago. Diff oils came out absolutely spotless. Transfer case dropped about 200ml out as opposed to the 1.5L it should be holding! :eek: I spoke to a specialist about it, and he reckons 1 in 3 are coming in with the same amount...

Gearbox oil EVERY year? Good effort! :cool: Think I'll be doing the same, to be fair. :)

If you've got an iPad type device, look for an App called Outside Maps. An absolute must for the Greenlaner. Then go to the top right and select the OS 1927-1947 version of the area. Hours of browsing.

What are NFU like when it comes to heavily modded Landies...? AF were the only ones who would touch mine 3 years ago.

And if you're having trouble with swollen chrome caps that the Rangies suffer with, pay as much again for a set of stainless nuts... :D Land Rover with Alloy Wheels

Check your fuses. Mine cut out at traffic lights once - cranked but wouldn't fire. Turned out to be a 10A fuse. Changed there and then and carried on without further bother.

I've just discovered the joys of a FBH with Timed Climate and remote fob. Ultimate neighbour envy and smugness generator. :D

I've driven both. The 3.0 SDV6 diesel was fantastic. Very smooth and effortless. The 5.0 SC petrol was refined violence at its absolute best. Utterly amazing.

I'm personally a fan of this method for a FULL auto gearbox oil change. It's certainly a similar route I'll be going down when we do mine in the next week or two. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsdPAadc9fY

As above, full transmission oil change. Transfer case, diffs, gearbox.

Price drop to a more realistic £50. :D

I'd say a decent set of standard size ATs wouldn't go amiss.

:clap2:

I knew somebody who put a set of really low profile (scrap) tyres on a set of 16" wheels in order to get it in his garage etc. Worked a treat for him.

I'd also suggest a bad earth given you've already changed the starter motor. Definitely worth checking the earth strap.

Glad you sorted it. :)

I've heard of people in the trade getting it for as low as £48 for 80L. But I'm not in the trade...

Squirt some WD40 onto he shaft and work the wheel left/right until you get bored. Also, make sure you put the securing nut back on - just a couple of turns, otherwise when the wheel does finally give, you'll be ****ting yourself in the mush at one hell of a force... :D

And a £55 PA membership fee to divide between your purchases. :D Either way, it's still damn cheap and equates to £0.75ppl vice £1.00 per litre in most shops.
