I need to get some leather dye for the drivers seat in our L322. I can get it colour matched if I have the name and/or colour code for the leather. It's a 2006 model in Zambezi Silver and it has the grey leather with charcoal trim. Can anyone help with the exact name or code?

We bought a 2005 L322 back in February and shorty after we got it I noticed a slight knock from the front suspension. It has been off the road with gearbox issues for 2 months (I know, almost unheard of on one of these!) and driving it again over the past couple of weeks the knock seems to have...

My daughter and her fiancée have a 2010 Freelander TD4. On Saturday it started to flash up loads of warning lights and the dash would occasionally loose power completely, with the instruments shutting down. I put a code reader on it and got a number of low voltage codes, as well as a few...

Had this come up on our 55 plate TD6 today when my wife was going to collect her Father from hospital. She stopped the car and called the RAC. The patrolman read a fault code on the gearbox which apparently related to a valve but he did say that it sounded like it could be an electrical problem...

I am after a handbook for a 2005 L322 Range Rover. It is a face-lift model with the touch screen navigation and the TD6 engine. Glen.

The silver handle on the cubby box in the centre console was loose when we bought our Range Rover. How is it supposed to be attached to the metal part underneath? There are a couple of plastic pins in the handle that look like they attach somehow to the metal part. I tried Araldite yesterday but...

Has anyone found a spray paint finish that is similar to the foundry finish on the interior trim in the L322? I want to re-paint the rear trim on the centre console o match the rest as closely as possible. Looking online it appears that the Tamiya XF-56 is a good match but it is only available...

I am trying to get a spare key for our 55 plate Range Rover which only came with one key. The dealer wants £290. I have found someone who can do it way cheaper but the cost will depend on whether it uses EWS, or not. Apparently the later ID46 system without EWS is easier, and cheaper to do. The...

We have just bought a 55 plate TD6 Vogue to replace our old TD5 Discovery. There are a few minor bits to sort out on the car that I could do with some advice on:- The passenger's cup holder is reluctant to come out. I can carefully prise it out with a screwdriver and I have tried spraying it...

Our TD5 Discovery is getting rather old now, so we are looking at buying a 3.0 TD L322. Are there any common faults to look out for? From what I can gather the auto'box is weak but the BMW engine is pretty reliable.

I was towing a digger today with our TD5 and the car was behaving fine. I unloaded the digger and started to head home with an empty trailer and the car started to make a knocking noise from the rear. I pulled over and noticed that the O/S rear anti-roll bar link had popped apart. Pulling back...

Our TD5 has had a vibration at between 70 and 80 MPH for a couple of years now. When it first started I found some wear in one of the UJs on the double cardan joint on the front prop. I replaced this but it didn't help. As I hadn't replaced the needle roller bearings in the centre of the...

Can anyone give me a link on how to do the wiring modification? I have done a search but some of the links that I have looked at on here in the past don't seem to work anymore. Thanks.

A friend has just bought a 2003 1.8 Freelander which he is very pleased with, except that the power steering appears to be rather stiff near to full lock. The fluid was a bit low but he has topped it up and the problem is still there. Apparently the engine idle also drops a bit at the point...

The three amigos have been coming on intermittently on our Discovery 2 recently, so I borrowed a Snap-on Solus code reader and got the following:- 134 shuttle valve switch electrical failure. I cleared the code, checked for engine fault codes, then got a boing sound and the three amigos were...

What's the easiest and cheapest way of getting a spare key, with remote, for our 2000 TD5?

We are probably looking to change our 2000 TD5 Discovery in the next 6 months or so and my wife would really like a Range Rover. The question is, whether to go for a Td6 or the TDV6 Sport. I am guessing that the BMW engine in the Td6 is probably more reliable than the TDV6 as it is...

There is an oil leak around the alternator area on our TD5. There are a few drips on the underside of the alternator and on the auto gearbox pipes running to the oil cooler. It doesn't look like ATF though and the top of the alternator is clean. I need to get it cleaned off and check it...

The air suspension on the rear of our Discovery seems to be behaving strangely. When we first got it about about 6 years ago the o/s/r air spring failed and was replaced by a local specialist. My wife used the car quite a lot yesterday and when I went to go out in it this morning the...

Our TD5 needs a bit of money spending on it, so I was thinking of doing an EGR bypass along with all of the other bits (new shocks, steering damper, front propshaft, fixing the leaking sunroofs etc.). I fitted one to our old E46 BMW 320d which had a stub on the side to which the pipe from the...
