I am considering purchasing a 2001 discovery 2 with 135000 miles. It has the 4.0L lump in it and is going for $4000. I don't do a lot of miles but I am worried about the miles (not high for US standards - my Jeep has 225K) given the checkered history of these engines. Would you take the gamble...

I'm heading to London on Saturday (16th Nov). I have a spare baggage allocation (32kg) if anyone needs me to transport something. PM me with details etc.

Hi guys I have an opportunity to pick up a '95 4.0SE for less than $1000. The car looks clean in and out with no obvious faults other than it wont run. It will start but stalls almost immediately. The guy selling it believes that it needs a new fuel pump. What do you guys think?

So at the moment I am on the lookout for a new rangie. The choice over here is somewhat simplified. You can have either a 4.0L or a 4.6L. No doozals ( not that I would ever stoop that low - sorry Datatek :D) and the highest trim I have seen is HSE. There are some really good examples of both...

Came across this ad earlier today. Certainly not overselling it.... http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/3187195827.html

Not sure if anyone has seen this already but on my recent travels to the Middle East I stumbled across a .PDF version of the Range Rover Workshop manual. I had been looking for such a thing for some time as RAVE only on works on a windows PC and I use an Android tablet for most of my online...

Both rangies sold this weekend. Really sorry to see them go. Only 2 Cherokees left. Hope the new owners have as much enjoyment as I have had. Fingers crossed I will be able to find a nice one when we get to sunny California. Packing company arrives tomorrow.....:(

Just some info really for those of you that need to replace your front door locks. Over the weekend I repaired my front door locks which had burnt out motors. I didnt fancy forking out the 2 x £130 for new locks so I set about trying to find a replacent motor. All searches failed - you can get...

Was heading home and came across our local ford in full flood. Got my mate to do the photo honours. At the other side was a dead Disco. Who says P38's are afraid of water. Mind you when I saw the photos I thought I was mad.

Guys My EAS whistles everytime the system vents air. Everytime I stop my arrival is announced by a couple of peep peeps. It like driving Thomas the bleedin' Tank. I changed the exhaust silencer but this made no difference. Removing the silencer altogether just changes the frequency. My guess is...

Guys I want to swap the instrument cluster on the '99 for one off an earlier model. I just want to make sure that the mileage is stored in the becm and not the actual cluster so I keep the proper mileage. Anyone know the answer? Thanks again JT

I plan to change the blend motors in the wife's '99 this weekend. They need doing before she goes to her new home however I seem to remember something about having to get them calibrated using a T4 or similar. Can someone please clarify what is actually required. Thanks.

Coming back from Manchester this afternoon over the Woodhead pass. Pulled out to overtake a truck, floored the accelerator but nothing explosive happened. She dropped 1 gear and gently accelerated me towards the on coming car. Scared me ****less. Tried it a few times over the rest of the trip...

When i got the 1999 car it came with an after market Pioneer radio which looks crap now and probably did when it was new. Anyway I would like to swap it back to the factory model but not sure who the OEM was for that model year. The CD changer in the back is also a Pioneer so has the previous...

The wife's '99 just passed the MOT with only 1 advisory for a O/S rear Tyre getting close to the limit. The other 2 are due an MOT this month as well so fingers crossed I score a hat trick. :) Strange new non certificate they give you now. Just a print out on regular paper.

OK well that was me. Last year when I replaced the brake pipes I also replaced the brake hardware on the rears including new calipers, housings, discs and pads. Brakes were fantastic until a few weeks ago when I started to get a judder when braking from 50mph or more. It continued to get worse...

So as some of the more eagle eyed amongst you might have spotted I was offered a job in California which I have now accepted. Start on 1st May so busy trying to prepare for the move. Anyway I love my P38's and it will break my heart to sell them and so I have decided to try and pick one up when...

I am toying with the idea of fitting a CB to my Rangie but was wondering if it would mess with RF receiver? I don't have the latest RF receiver as yet so would this be pre-requisite purchase?

Recently I have been driving the wife's car (Thor) due to a couple of minor issues it has had. I have noticed a big difference in the drivability between the Thor and my '97 Gems. The Thor is nimble , responsive and light on it's feet whereas my Gems feels heavy and sluggish. Also noticed that...

Hi guys My jobs today were to grease the props and UJ's on all the cars. I also wanted to adjust the hadbrake on the wifes '99 4.6. I noticed that on the rear UJ where it joins onto the handbrake drum all 4 bolts were loose - very loose. I have tightened them up but was wondering if this is a...
