    Do I sell or repair? Range Rover 1999 4.0 V8 SE

    The car needs to go tommorow! I am willing to accept £1250 from the 1st person who turns up with a trailer to be able to take it away. I need a working car for monday or basically I lose a well paid job, so realistically losing a couple of grand on this car at the moment is my only option...

    Do I sell or repair? Range Rover 1999 4.0 V8 SE

    Well yes, in theory it SHOULD leave me with a fault free car, but the way my has been going these last few weeks I'm very doubtful.. I dont suppose there's any other way of diagnosing a slipped liner without taking the heads off is there? I'd love to keep this car.. but I just dont know if...

    Do I sell or repair? Range Rover 1999 4.0 V8 SE

    It may not be slipped liner or block problems, but once the heads are off and if there are any other problems then I cannot afford the repairs... so its a bit of a gamble, sell for £1500 and buy another cheap car, or pay the garage to put it back together costing £1500 and coming away with a...

    If coolant is landing here, where's it coming from?

    what if the aircon's off? i've got the heaters on full heat to help the bleeding of the air in the system... so would it still leak?

    If coolant is landing here, where's it coming from?

    ermm.. well its just water in there at the moment, as it overheated, and had trouble stopping it from overheating.. then come across this leak.. i think it does stop after 5 minutes, so is that just normal? water draining out from aircon? so this could be a seperate issue from the...

    I'd say your best off testing the stereo in another car to check the on board amp actually works... or your saying you got an rca adaptor? RCA's are ment for hooking up seperate amps are they not? Fitting a non standard stereo requires one of these Land Rover Discovery & Range Rover ISO...
