Hi all I have a 51 plate Westminster which is in many ways a brilliant car. The only shame is they fitted it with the 4.0 block... should have been a 4.6! The engine at the moment, apart from a rocker gasket weep, doesn't get hot, uses no water or oil and sounds as sweet as a sewing machine...

Hi Guys loads of views on this - and threads too - but is there a definitive diagnostics tool that you'd recommend for a 2001 (51 plate) 4.0? I'd like access to as much as possible in order to read/reset fault codes and set up things like HeVAC after replacement etc. I hear BBS are the last...

Hi all I recently purchased a 2002 Westminster. The SatNav computer was missing from the boot and the PO informed me his garage had blown it by disconnecting the battery before it had powered down so all he had was a blank white screen. He'd just not bothered replacing it, apparently, but a new...

Thought I'd share this as it may be of use to some of you although it's probably a unique failure only ours had! However there is a cautionary tale here regarding LandRover and stealers. In 2009 we bought a brand new L322 TDV8 Westminster with extended warranty which was and still is a simply...

Good morning all I have a 1995 RRC vogue with very worn out manual seats. I've since procured an entire SE soft dash from '94 which is comedy rotten but has an immaculate leather interior. My loom comes wired for the heater elements in the leathers, but not the motor functions. Now, I...

Hello all Quick one - what screws fit the upper tailgate? I'm replacing mine and the originals are currently in there so will need drilling. What size screw is needed to screw the upper hinge to the frame - or what part number etc? Thanks!

Hello all I have a ridiculous theory I'd like to run past your collective minds, and it is this: The climate control system on a D2 is a stand alone ECU, temp sensors internal/external and solar load sensor and a HeVAC panel wired to an aircon compressor, fans and the requisite pipework...

Hi everyone - posted some time ago and had a couple of responses but the issue persists. Any electrical experts out there, your help is needed as it's a mystery to me. If I can hit it or torque it, fine. If I need a multimeter... not so much. 1995 300tdi RRC Vogue with the following bastard...

Hi all I have a replacement ally frame for my venerable rust - sorry, soft - dash. What I don't have on either the rotten one or replacement is the sealing strip that sits on the bottom of the top tailgate. Anybody know where I can get my paws on one, or what would make an adequate...

Hi all I've just fitted a far better head unit to the car to replace the mid-line Clarion radio cassette. I know there has been a bit of chatter around this topic before, but I just wanted some clarity. How can I make the factory sub and little amp in the boot work with my head unit...

Hello team - bit of a long one, this, but really hoping somebody can help before I do my absolute nut and or pointlessly rip apart the car. Pretty sure I have a bad earth problem - it manifests itself as follows: Headlights flicker and pulse - not dramatically, but enough. When I flash...

Hi all - I've a '95 soft dash which is exhibiting some odd symptoms. Thought I'd ask you collective wisdom before starting to dig. The battery light is always on when you start it up, usually goes away when you give it a blip of throttle, although sometimes it can take up to 30 seconds of...

Hello all! Long time reader, never a poster. About time I changed that! I have a 1995 'N' reg 300tdi RRC Vogue which is the subject of an ongoing, rolling, rebuild so will no doubt be posting here a great deal. Any thoughts I can give based on years of bleeding knuckles, expense...
