Right, no sniggering at the back! Some of you may know from my previous posts about my gearbox trouble in auto mode. Basically it juddered and freaked and well, to be honest, wasn't a pleasant experience hence why it spent most of it's life in the smooth as silk manual mode. After a bit of...

It was bound to happen, it was my fault for creating a thread entitled "I think my luck is finally changing". Enjoying the euphoria of finding the rear quarter leak and hopefully fixing it, searching endless adverts for changing my wheels, I finally felt like I was the one in control of this...

Now I don't want to tempt fate as such but things are going great in my "up and down" ownership with the Rangie. If anybody is keeping up with my desperate pleas for help and moaning about leaks etc, you'll notice over the tone of my last posts that things are, well, okay. I seem to have...

They're not my cup of tea as I love the pain of L322 ownership but if you're into the Classic, then this looks a beaut. Not sure if the price is right as I know sweet FA about them :) Land Rover Range Rover 3.9 Brookands Limited Edition 5dr

Now all the big jobs that were beyond my control are out of the way (gearbox not included but I consider being in control of that!), the only thing I've not been truly happy with on my Rangie are the 22 inch wheels. I love every other mod the previous owners have done but I've always thought...

As of a few minutes ago (yep it's quiet at work at the mo), I finally found the source of the leak in the rear quarter that been playing havoc with all my expensive amplifiers and sat nav!!! I'll try and post a pic later on but it's on the rear pillar that meets the top half of the tailgate...

Despite the excitement of our first holiday away in three years, the thought of leaving my trusty L322 on the drive did fill me with dread. However all I came back to (I say all, it's a bloody nuisance) was a flooded rear quarter (still trying to find that flipping leak) which knocked out...

A couple of my recent posts were about my dodgy audio. One day the CD wouldn't work and a slam of the bonnet brought it back. A rather rotund chap I work with got in the passenger seat and that brought the tape player back! As a few of you pointed out, sounds like a dodgy connection or two...

than I thought. If you remember my thread about the diff going on the 8/12/14 and getting it back on the 23/1/15, it was mighty powerful emotive reading but besides the locking up of the diff due to no oil, it must have been making me use more fuel as well! I suppose that makes sense as if...

And if so what do they do? I was doing my tri weekly engine management fault clearing (nothing major for once, thinks it's a misfire one day, cruise control sensor another - all works!!!) and while I was sat there I was having a play with the other sections and I noticed expert user sections...

Dropped the car off this morning for the brake pad change on the front so thought it would be a morning's work and I'd have the car back by lunchtime. No ...... A call from the garage a few minutes ago and that feeling appeared back in my stomach and then whammy .... good news. The pads...

Now I know it's no biggie but I had to laugh at this one. After all the past bits of alternators, front diffs, 16 hour labour charges and then the handbrake repairs the other week (just got bill for that one £543 inc VAT - I'm actually re-reading that piece of s#'; thread again as it's getting...

Just to let the forum know that I'm getting better with my new All Comms so if there's a member who needs help in the North West with a quick plug in, I'm here to help. Just drop me a PM :) PS That's assistance by the way, too many crumbs on my keyboard

Hopefully the pics will work and you'll be able to see everything if I've done it correctly. Sadly it's rained since the wash and the polish so the old girl isn't quite as smart as normal. Please don't be offended that I've blanked the number out as I don't want anyone stealing her as you all...

I promised a while ago to put up some pics of my darling Rangie as it would be nice to show you all what you have been helping me (and supporting me) with over my recent woes. So my question is, how does a northern noob like me put a piccy on here for all to see? And when I say how I mean...

To start trusting your L322 again? After my recent troubles, I'm currently into day four of trouble free motoring and that feeling of dread is starting to wear off but does it truly go away!!! I had a chance of a 50 mile round trip on Monday night and I wimped out and took my wife's car...

You won't believe this but I just spent the last forty minutes giving you an update on my car and I went to submit the post and I'd timed out! So here's the short of it which should save you a lot of time. Got car back 23rd Jan. Worked for a few days. Brakes/handbrake went 28th Jan...

It's December, t'is the season of jollyness and all that and Monday the 8th got off to a great start. A trip to the postie to pick up a missed special delivery from Saturday for a replacement sat nav unit that I obtained through one of the greatest acts of generosity I've ever received (you...

Now anyone who has had the, ahem, pleasure of helping me out over the past few weeks of Rangie ownership will know that my L322 relationship has had it's own fair share of ups and downs due to me not knowing what I was really taking on but this new post should make you chuckle. If you...

As you know I love this forum and I love talking Landies and I wasn't going to whinge about this next little problem but I thought what the hell, someone on here will know a quick fix won't you? Please? My sat nav didn't work work when I got the car (mk 3 cd based one) and after a bit of...
