Just fitted one to my 300TDI, tightened down to 40 nm, the rechecked all the bolts again before doing the double stretch. Followed the sequence as per the Range Rover manual. Incidently the double stretch was easy apart from having to do all 18 bolts twice. No problems. I have used these gaskets...

Hi, I just use a pair of side cutter, and grip the screw housing and twist left & right the it should snap the jub clip and come off.

No probs went through every year for 3 years after I did away with the cats. Then a diesel came my way and I couldn't afford both.

I removed the cats on my 1993 Rangie 3.9, got the down pipes etc from Rimmer Bros. The pipes had the ports for the Lambarda sensors. They still need to be there to keep the ECU happy. My MOT tester told me that if it's fitted with cats it has to be tested with cats. When we put it through the...

Hi all After looking at the Paddock hg and the one that I removed they look like one of the same. My one had blown between cylinders 2 & 3 and eventually into the water jacket. Not sure how old this gasket was, I have had the vehicle over 4 years and tow a 1900kg caravan. Have now got OEM...

I have one of those on my diesel classic, I believe the correct term for it is a Harmonic Damper. If its not covered in oil then you have a problem, a Land Rover isn't a Land Rover without the odd oil leak. Alan

In my house the jury is out on anything other than a Classic, we started off awith a 2 door V8 that became a diesel after doing 240,000 miles on the V8, we then went to a B reg 4 door V8, then an E reg ex old bill V8, then an L reg Vogue SE V8. But our tug for the last 4 years is a 94 M reg...

Loverly looking car DaveLee 13. I do love the V8, but these days I run the old oil burners. If I had a bottomless bank balance I'id go for it. Good luck Alan

Thanks for your advice Mjltigger Will be in touch with LR dealers tomorrow, and get them to send me one. Didn't want to find it blowing again when towing the caravan after carrying out all that work. Alan

Hi Rodney All the electrics ECU fuses and relays are under the drivers seat. Its a case of unscrew the grey cover on the seat base next to the door, all the fuses and relays are screwed on to the frame, the wiring loom slots into the ecu, there are some connectors that bring the power in from...

Hi Rodney I had to change mine over on the qt due to the system packing and a week before my MOT, I was told that the system thought the compressor was running but on further inspection there was not current from the ECU (which had no stored faults) The question is are you going back to air...

Hi All I have read this post with great interest, the head gasket failed on my Rangie 300 TDI. I was going to fit it today until I had the sense to read this thread. Like the rest of you I purchased mine from Paddock at £9.95, it looks ok with the cylinder rings look clean and shiney. It...
