Spot on advice, thank you very much,

Looking back over previous posts, oil leaks come from several places on the transfer box. Mine looses most of its oil over several weeks so it looks like it's transfer box out job. But everything I seem to read says take the auto box and transfer box out together is the best option, but on my...

Thanks Discool. I will just use the one from the left. You are spot on, I never use MW or LW myself.

No its definitely for the FM ariel on the left hand side window. It's the highline version. It is exactly the same shape as the main ariel plug but slightly smaller.

Am in the process of replacing my factory fitted radio with a pioneer DVD/usb/Bluetooth replacement. Having removed the existing radio, there are 2 aerial connectors, one small one (FM from the left hand amp) and one standard size plug (for am/fm from the right hand window). Can I connect the...

I will be draining my D2 auto box this weekend, providing we don't get the forecasted torrential rain. I understand that when draining you usually get about 4.5 litres out and need to do the oil change again in a few hundred miles time and that is my plan for my box that I actually replaced...

A heat gun is an excellent way of restoring the trim. Search on uTube, I'm sure there are a few videos about how to do it.

I think a search will list a previous similar problem. I am sure I read how to sort out these seats a few months ago. I have had to drop and then raise the seats a few times to get the catch to release so you can raise the backs.

^^^ Sounds like you need a nanocom or similar plugged in and brake bleeding procedure followed. It's the only way to do it properly if air is in the system.

Er, it is headed by the words "introduce yourself" who are you? Where are you? What do you like or not! Tell us about you and what Landy you have, then maybe you will get some excellent advice! Try, it works.

:welcome: If you have a Landy, you need the landyzone! Great people with great knowledge, but don't be surprised if you get a little bit of ribbing, they enjoy that sort of thing on here! :D

Thanks Dave, I think I am going to follow your advice and add it to the 12 monthly service. I certainly don't want to be replacing the auto box again it wasn't cheap although Ashcroft's did give excellent service

Thanks thebiglad. 18 inch wheels on my D2 ES auto seem to give me less of a turning curve from what I remember on one with 16 inch wheels. I suppose there was a sound reason why LR put 18" on mine.

Morris oil added! Thanks all. Now happy to go ahead and change the oil this weekend.

Would changing to 16" wheels cause issues with the speedo etc?

Any suggestions on a good quality ATF Dexron III. There are several different names like Comma; Granville; Miller; Castrol etc. don't want to change the auto box oil on my D2 and put crap in it but also, I don't want to pay more than I need to. Thanks in advance.

Thanks everyone, great advice.

I changed my oil the day before yesterday. The sump plug on mine is reset and I could only just get the socket onto the plug. There is no way I would be able to get a pair of mole grips onto it. I know that the thread had been stripped a few years back and Rockingham Landrovers replaced the...

Thank you everyone for the sound advice. I shall be changing the oil next weekend, i have the sump gasket, filter and o rings all ready to go, just got to get 5 litres of ATF Dexron III.:)

Ok, read lots and lots. Some say "DONT do it", others say "yes, change the auto box oil regularly" year before last my flexi plate gave up the ghost wrecking my auto box 30 miles from home! RAC got me to my indi LR garage and a exchange box ordered from Ashcroft's and fitted by my garage all...
