HOW I SAVED ON MY LAND ROVER INSURANCE IN 2024!
Sorry but never buy an SUV like a land rover with a 2.0 engine. They are made from chocolate and are suited to the evoque even in the evoque they aren’t brilliant. I’ve had many land rovers and there’s always problems but allways get the v8 diesel. The engines are strong or the v6 in the other discovery’s
thats stupid they can always follow you when you driving and pick your signal
Hi can anyone help me please? My land Rover discovery sport HSE 2019 is been with a problem since February so my garage had a look at it and said that they wouldn't touch and that I should take to the Land Rover garage as this were common problems with that engine. So I took to Land Rover and the only date available was at the end of may and they advised me to not drive the car, so the car has been in my garage for 3 months and finally I took to Land Rover at the end of May, a week later they have called me saying it was the stretching timing chain, so they fixed they went for a test drive the engine light showed again and this time some dpf issue and when they were opening to get that fixed they found out a major issue with the turbo. I asked if they could do something about because it's a common issue with the car and they said they would contact the manufacturer to see if we could claim for the repair as it's not my fault, the jlr replied saying that they would only pay 20% . I'm so frustrated and in a such bad place right now that I don't know what to do , 20% its not enough they are asking me more than £7,000 I don't have warranty because when I bought the car a year and half ago I thought it was a reliable car as they are so expensive. I've worked so hard to get this car, and now it's been 4 months with no use . Any help to how do I make a complaint to JLR and ask them to help me more, please ? Thank you
The only thing stopping me from buying a pick up truck is my local tip policy. They don’t want vans or pickups but its fine in a equally sized suv though. So obviously im looking at suv,s.
The no claims bonus is definitely used able on a van. I went from a car to a van and my no claims wasn't affected
Thanks for the interesting videos, it helped validating my decision of purchasing 3.0 petrol instead of the diesel version, despite the insane mpg!!! 1.Do you happen to know where was your Raptor manufactured/assembled? The information on the web is very vague - I'd assume South Africa or Thailand? Couldn't find anything clear about a Ranger assembly unit in Europe. 2. Did your Raptor come with the remote start and/or FordPass? It would be interesting to see a video on the topic, not too many out there. All in all, may you enjoy it to the fullest and looking forward to watching your Raptor journey!
Just don’t like to much Technology in any car .. it’s expensive if it goes wrong I love my LR3 it’s basic it’s great to work on the new Defender is typical of a Chelsea Tractor I’d be scared to death if I took it off I Road a 4x4 meant. to be Drove
3.2 ford ranger are the one to get better for towing
What about a pease of shower gasket that would stop the rattle on that back glass, and it's clear so it would not catch your eye also, it's waterproof 🤔
Hi I'm thinking about getting one as I've always wanted one, and I've had my VW Caddy Maxi for 10 years, so after spending £4k+ recently on repairs, I want a more basic vehicle. I love my Caddy, but because of the 5k miles a year I do, a lot of hot and cold cycles have put things under stress e.g. broken electrical cables (£700+ bill, mainly finding and getting to wiring loom to repair it). As for your ECU, someone's been in there obviously, so what was the quality of parts they replace, how long ago was it done and who did it? THE ECU is basically a computer, and remapping it is only tweaking the software parameters, which is like an update on a phone, pc, games console, etc. and they don't go bang afterwards. Everything will break due to age eventually. Making it of higher quality materials would make it last longer, but at least it's reparable.
Better o f with a 6 cylinder. Tow Better Had these 4 cylinder turbos Crap
Great video , I guess there is no replacement for displacement ! Just a note when hooking up your red break away cable don't just loop it round the tow ball as if the hitch came of there is a chance the break away will come off too . There is an oval hole on the frame of the tow bar to click the clip through . Was thinking of replacing my Audi Q7 4.2tdi with a ranger but as I tow a 3000kg trailer everywhere for work even the larger engined ranger is well down on my current 340 bhp
They are shit, in the wet, they boost up and loose traction in the arse end, even when towing. When turning from a standing start they just loose traction on the inside wheel. I sold mine, they might be popular, but in my opinion are rubbish, including off road, they struggle, all show & No Go.
Out of interest are you in the UK with a euro spec pick up?
I am kind of person who want keep things as is as long as it is not needing repairing or replacing. I dont mind bit of dents and scratches and pint loss. They give character. But I want all mechanical to be as perfect as possible. I dont mind oil leak. But those rusty chassis must be cleaned inside out in summer and paint and coating! Need to do good seat sponges ! I have not done mine yet as UK money is way too high for AUD!
RAF blue, galvanise as much as possible, black truck bed canvas but leave the cab intact. I have “speedliner” in the rear of my 90 truck, it’s a raptor coat, very hard wearing and grey in colour, looks very smart and subtle too.
Portofino Red! Rarely see any pick-ups in that colour, and done properly it's a lovely colour :)
6:00 What a great transition.
One thing to add is when you put the gearbox in reverse, the backup camera turns on automatically - as it should. But, when you switch back to drive, the front camera view does NOT come up. The whole camera just disappears which is quite odd.
CZL000030 replacement window felt. 5 minute job, makes a massive difference
Brilliant thanks for this and the part number! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Sadly watching these hoping to pick up advice. '21 plate Discovery 5 D300 sitting in a Marshall's Dealer carpark since the end of Feb due to a seized engine within the warranty period and JLR having no parts.
LR Parts / Masai offer a fixed rear window for a 110, not sure if that would fit the back? Alternatively the Frontrunner Gullwing window may also work. Colour wise, I think you can’t beat a Marine Blue, with white roof and heritage grill & bumper.
I suppose the parking brake issues relates to the RAPTOR being actually quite old in its design etc. If you’re on a hill brake, then Park is belt and braces. Re your car, and I must respect that it’s your car, I really don’t like them. I’d prefer another LandRover. I’m aware of all of the issues you have experienced but the Raptor is a commercial vehicle morphed into some sort of MPV. I bet the ride is heavy. However it’s your choice and I hope it is enjoyable…. Ford service departments…. Well they’re all poor in my experience.
I would save some money with the cappings and get them sand blasted and galvanised, just done it myself and its come out really well.
I would stick with a factory colour scheme, OK your not considering selling yet but at some time you will be. The chassis looks good, as usual I would use Kurust to treat rust surface areas (wire brush the worst off first) and then coat with Corroless black chassis paint. Then you can use your Dinitrol on top of that. I would recommend 3125 HS as it is a light brown colour and doesn't coat everything in a horrible bitumen coating that other rust preservers do. Glad your not considering using Lanoguard again, as this only works on pristine condition chassis, not the sort of trucks we end up buying. There is a reason it only takes a short while to spray on. Using Kurust and Corroless will take many hours to do properly, there's a good reason way this method is superior.
I would go for a truck like that I would just use android auto i have a Samsung and I hate apple
I never ever buy a Discovery 5 I would get a defender an older one
That MPG in city or highway?
At least ya'll can still buy this!! My dream bike and they dont sell it in America since 2021! I cant find a stock new 2021 or at least one with super low miles almost new. Also I want to buy new 2024 model but only available in Europe and Middle East. I want vivid black. I want it so bad man!
Land Rover light green from the series 2a /3 era with Limestone wheels & roof. 👍
Brookland Coach works on Insta have some stunning classic colours. I would personally go for a powder blue colour with some matching steel wheels and galvanised bumber
I have a 2004 TD5 Defender in the lovely Oslo Blue colour, I would recommend. 👍
How are you coping withe reduced speed limits???
Seats. Like the s111 ones but black leather rather than vinyl
In keeping with the ER sticker, Royal Claret paint with cream wheels and roof would be classy
I've recently had a full soft top heritage conversion done on a 1986 90 pick up. Went for a non LR colour of Agate grey. I'm selling it here if you want to check out the colour for ideas. neneoverland.co.uk/listings/land-rover-defender-v8-90-soft-top/ Looking forward to seeing the progress of this project.
Hi Doc, My current Defender was Corris grey, I have had it sprayed Corris grey and Santorini black like the last Defenders that were made, I think they were called Autobiography Defenders, really looks cool but a modern look. I had a Suzuki LJ80, I sprayed it ‘Westminster’ blue with a matching blue mohair hood, it’s a really old colour that all the government cars and royalty cars were sprayed, it’s a block colour, very deep. If you need any photos I can show you. I had the hood made by a marine outfitter in Portsmouth. Kind regards Tony
Leave it original - over restored examples do not turn heads like one with its patina. Every dent, scratch etc is part of a Land Rover’s unique history.
phoenix orange
Married, 2 kids, clearly a successful cosmetic surgeon, various project cars, where do you find the time??🤣🤣
Tonga green? Definitely green
Looking forward to following the build mate! I love the chalk, white, grey colours that Brooklyn Coachworks have built recently - something I was tempted with when I was deciding how to paint my new project 90
Yay landrover videos again! 👍
Is the clear fluid leak brake or clutch fluid?
On my 130 Tipper and my Td5 HCPU, I removed the rear window unit and had a plant glass glazer fit a one piece window, firmly bonded in place…. no rattles ever!
If the dripping stops its empty. Needs topping up
