Afternoon all. Just thought I'd post that my mainly trouble free old girl has had enough of her present water pump so she squealed a little and then shredded the fan belt. I wasn't sure what it was but the alternator light came on and the power steering went so I pulled into a small residential...

Afternoon all. I suspect my old girls got some water ingress somewhere and when I'm driving in the rain she splutters and then everything fails on the dash (hdc inactive, air susp, all the lights) and I'm without power. It happened just now on the motorway but I got her over to the hard...

Driving down the a13 towards Southend this evening to go to a friends party I was at the 40mph avg camera works area and I spied this little 07 car weaving in and out of the traffic, I was doing bang on 40 and clicked the cruise off as he came belting up behind me, he swerved into lane 2 and got...

Morning all. I got an Air Suspension Inactive error on the dash last night, I've plugged in the Allcoms and it says: Articulation Validity Fault. When I cleared it all was good when stationary but when I took her for a quick drive the error came back. (My understanding is it's a hard fault...

Afternoon all. I just wanted to sing the praises of H20 car valeting in Car Park B of Stratford Westfield. I've got a lovely looking 03 l322 that I had titivated earlier this year. To be fair her interior was amazing but the idiot that had her before had turned her into an 'Underpigeon' and...

Hey up gents. Just had my old girl in for a quick pre-winter 'Service A' service with the chaps at LRR and wanted to sing their praises. I asked around on here for a recommendation based around my location and these guys got some warm comments. I've used them for a major service, all...

Hey up folks. Here's an odd one. (Another odd one that should read!) The parking sensors on my old girl seem not to work. There's no fault showing on my allcomms and my Uncle's just had a look with his snap on system and when he was in the diagnostic he could see the distances from each...

Well. I got my coolant temperature issue looked at last week at the garage (lrr.co.uk) along with a service etc. She's going back next week for some bushes / roll bar / suspension / tracking bits and she was to have her transmission serviced. I got 4 new tyres on her yesterday. Friday I was...

Hey everyone. Got the old girl back from LRR (london range rovers lrr.co.uk) and they've done a good job on her with a few things on the report which she's getting done in fortnight. Before I take her back I need to get some next tyres on her. She's got 4 different ones on her and there's...

So. I was out in the old girl over the weekend, drove up to kings lynn and back to London and she was a dream to drive (other than the shimmy I've covered in another post but I just stayed at 68 mph and she was as smooth as anything.) Anywho, it was quite warm on Sunday and I had the air con...

Hey folks. I've got a shudder / shimmy that comes from the nearside front wheel when on the motorway if I go over 70'ish. I don't think it's tracking / balancing as I can't drive through it. The shudder / shimmy gets worse instead of disappears. There's also quite a 'clunk' comes from there...

l322 2003 4.4 Vogue So. I went to the restorers / bodyshop with a few final bits and pieces (new rear lights, passenger cup holder) for them to fit so I can finally take the old girl home tomorrow. She looks mighty fine. However.. (Isn't there always a however!) Whilst I'd been driving her...

Hey up folks. Getting my old girl back from the restorers mid-week and wanting to take her in to have a few niggles looked at. (There's a shimmy / judder from the nearside front wheel at around 70 and the serpentine belt driving the ac needs replacing.) I'm no good with a spanner so I'm in...

Got an intermittent HDC inactive and read quite a lot of positive reviews about the All Comms product. Hopefully the bus will be back from the bodyshop as the unit arrives! :)

Could do with some help please. Went to open her just now and she won't comply. When I put the key in nothing either. Any ideas? 03 L322 Petrol.

Morning all. My temperature gauge seems to have a life of its own, I'm not losing any coolant, the oil's nothing but oil coloured and there's no 'cream' in the cap / dipstick. The pipes aren't too soft or too hard (not that I've got a gauge in my arm but you know what I mean!) and I've just...
