Does anyone have a maintenance schedule for the L405 - and the TD6

Thanks for the pic of the missing book. I have to admit - I like working on my RR. I am a new bilateral amputee and cant tell you how therapeutic it is to get back under a car. Anyway - land rover knoxville recommended 8K. I agree that synthetics are the difference. Interestingly, some vehicles with longer service intervals use a large amount of oil in theory giving a larger reservoir of detergent. The TD6 only holds 4 qts. Just my thoughts ... the oil discussions on discoweb seem to never end.

No problem, and yeah if you enjoy doing it then by all means go for it!

I used to drive my L322 to Knoxville from NY a lot and LR Knoxville makes me miss our local LR dealer's store. A few years ago they got rid of the LR only store (with all the theme decorations, test hill, high ceilings, etc) and combined it with Volvo & Porsche in the same, soulless, bland building.

Most "discussions" on Dweb never seem to end........Too many ego's for the servers they have there. I gave up posting stuff, after getting *****ed out by Mr Right All The Time for not doing exactly what he said to do, regards an axle swap. Love how some idiots think they have a right to tell you what to do with your time and/or money.

synthetic oil isnt the end all be all solution even though its great... it still accumulates grit, metal shavings, and moisture. also like previously mentioned different weights will keep the vehicle prime in diff temps. i run different weights in the winter vs summer. i am convinced the schedule they provide is great for breaking a vehicle down just in time to buy another one before you actually need it. i dont care how sexy the oil is, im not waiting 15k miles to change it on a 100k+ vehicle , especially if you own..... id rather spend a few bucks up front and keep the car fresh than try to stretch it and pay for it later when the car is worth less. just my opinion =) i am on my 2nd oil change at 16k miles and i even had a hard time waiting that long
