Hi all On cold starts our TD5 D2 (with ace and air con) has a loud high pitch squeal for several seconds. Driving off it continues and gets louder with revs then it’ll stop for the rest of the day. Is it likely the fan belt needs tightening? If so can someone point me in the direction of some...

Hi I’ve a 1992, 3.9 V8 auto RR classic, it had its head/cams etc rebuilt a couple of years ago, I brought it out of winter storage last week and it seems to have a tapping noise under load which increases intensity with loaded engine speed. It’s smooth and silent when idling, also when cruising...

Hi all I’ve taken the sump off my 1982 Series 3 which has a 2.5 NA diesel (no engine number available) but has red painted sump / block. The Haynes says to use gasket or RTV but not sure which on mine, there was a gasket on it but it was leaking (could have been many years since it was...

Hi all Im looking to fit an overdrive to the 1982 Series 3 and before heading to ebay and the like, does anyone have a working one that they're happy to part with (sell) knowing it'll be going to a good home and help save my hearing on longer drives! Thanks Simon

Hi I’ve cleaned up the seat runners on the S3 which had tarnished sections but wondering what the ‘coating’ is on the runners which has the slight goldish colour compared to the usual steel colour under it. Is this something that be bought or recoated? Thanks Simon

Hi all, happy new head (19j 2.5 NA diesel engine) So pre Christmas I replaced the diesel return pipe and cleaned the ‘filter’ on the diesel feed pipe that sits in the fuel tank. It started first time after this and ran happily. This morning it wouldn’t start, cranks nicely but seems no fuel...

Hi all A few weeks ago had to jump start the S3 which was fine but coming to do it today connecting the jump leads and got spark from the negative connection which was unusual but then once connected saw smoke coming from the near side depths of the engine bay. It has a 2.5 NA engine. Can you...

Hi The lower front air dam spot/fog/driving lights on my 1992 RR Classic (Hard dash) do work for a second or two but then the fuse blows. It is the correct fuse rating for the slot but not sure why it keeps blowing. Its A6 in the dashboard fuse diagram. The spots are aftermarket but no damage...

Hi All Ive a really good tow bar (I think is a genuine LR one) that got removed from my 04 D2 18 months ago, I went to put it back on but there are only the 2 long bolts with it (I presume the garage cut the others off), the picture shows the ones Im missing, been searching for a bolt...

Hi All Im off to see a 1991 RR Classic at the weekend, I've watched multiple youtube videos and websites about how to check for rust but not much out there on key / basic checks before buying from a mechanical point of view. I've got a Disco 2 at the moment so know a bit about the things to look...

Hi All I've a Haynes Disco 2 Service/Repair manual which came with a digital copy on their website, the Range Rover Classic 1970-1992 Haynes manual doesn't seem to have a digital version (specific interest is 1991 3.9 V8). Have I missed something, or does anyone know of a PDF/Digital copy...

Hi All Got the D2 stuck in water yesterday, luckily not deep, but about 6" above the bottom of the doors. As a result, the 'underlay' of the carpets, the 1" thick foam/sound deadening is sodden. 2 questions as sure Im not the first ;-) Lifted as much of the carpet as I can without going full...

Hi All Recently changed tyres from 255/55/18 to 255/60/18 on my D2 and the old rear spare wheel cover no longer fits. As the alloy is a bit scruffy I want to cover it up again, but cant find a larger cover to fit the new tyres. Any ideas of custom covers or places people have bought previously...

Hi All I've recently acquired a second hand SLS 'plipper' for lowering the back of my D2 which Ive been keen to get hold of to make loading easier. Has anyone re-programmed this (without the barcode) - I understand there is a way via the internal 6 digit code on the chip but not sure which...

Hi All The radio headunit has stopped working in my 2004 Landmark D2, but there is still power as it lights up as it should but the LCD display is blank and it will not provide any music. There's a nice chap selling a headunit which looks the same on marketplace but from a 2000 D2, does anyone...

Hi Just driven about 200 miles along the motorway and noticed the rear boot especially on the spare tyres cover small spots of oil. I know it has a transfer box leak at the moment which is enough to leave small drips on the driveway, so, is it likely that at motorway speed this oil is blowing...
