Update:- The guy that recovered the car starting working on the vehicle without telling me the problem or the cost. He said before he recovered the vehicle that if it were the transmission that he had that exact one in stock fully reconditioned and i could have the car back in 24hrs. The man...

To be fair i don't know, didn't try holding it in Park, no codes came up on the dash when it happened which seems odd right ? I have it in a place now but they have behaved in a way that makes me distrust them completely. I am looking to take the car back however need a place to take it too. If...

Hi All, I have a late 04 L322 4.4v8 and it went off with a bang over the weekend. We were 4 hrs from home :) I believe it has to be the transmission as it was a loud snapping/breaking banging noise followed by gears grinding. I put the car into neutral and the grinding stopped. Can anyone...

By No means a nightmare, we are in between houses so internet wasn't available at the new house where the rr was. Never less I watched a you tube vid on my phone of a chap doing it and there was no mention of a special tool being needed. He implied it was two swift taps of the shifter and walla...

Anyone heard of this code reader or used it ? Looks good. LYNX DIAGNOSTIC HANDSET FOR ALL LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER MODELS | eBay

Thanks for your help, It was definitely a relief to have the engine light cleared :) I have since had a bit of a saga which included doing a rad flush and snapping the knob to the drain valve off just after I had opened it enough to leak ! lol. I bought a new rad but spent hours trying to undo...

Perfect, good man :)

Thanks, read that before I posted the thread. It sort of backs up the mechanic at the dealers really.

I can pop over to you for sure, my local guy doesn't even have that sort of kit so the only other option is the stealers ! When are you about ? maybe pm me your number and I can arrange a time that suits.

Yeah the guy from the Land Rover dealer on the isle of man said it was bad and especially because they were ally motors. Hi implied you would be shortening the life of the motor significantly as a result. After these few replies I think it not as big of a deal after all. Did you flush yours...

I am literally 2 miles from LHR

Dec 2004 range rover 4.4 v8 vogue Hi All, I was recently in the isle of mann for the tt and one morning my rr said check coolant level. There was a mechanic 20 yrds away so I was in luck. I rolled it in and he topped it up with 1.5-2 ltrs of coolant. He said hope you have a leak because...

Hi All, I am after recommendations for a good Land rover specialists in my area. I have a new rr and cannot get anyone to return calls regarding a service. I have so far tried Sayers in Bedfont and they must be too busy as for weeks I cannot pin him down for a service. I am in Feltham tw13 and...

Ok thanks lads, you have told me what i needed to hear to stop my heart over riding my brain. I will start looking at toyotas :) take care all.

I am a bit gutted as i longed for one for thirty years, is there a particular model that seems to be more reliable than the others ? Surely they are not that bad, how can they be so expensive if they are always breaking down ? Call me crazy but i still may buy it. problem is the wife read all...
