    Does anyone know how reconnect the parking brake lever? That gold thing (1) doesnt fit back into place on the lever because there is a rod (2) that runs through to the parking brake press button. I cant figure out how to put it in right. RAVE instructions were skimpy and unhelpful.
  2. Range Rover Classic
    Picked up a farm 1990 range rover (non-running) that had been sitting for 15 years. When I took it up with the tow truck I noticed the rear wheels are locked up, front apparently is still spinning, which is strange because the handbrake or transmission brake is positioned before the transfer...
  3. Range Rover Mark II / P38
    Just picked up my P38 about a week ago I figured the brakes needed to be replaced based on the pedal feel. I confirmed this by taking one tire off the front and found the brakes to be good, though to myself "old fluid?", then took one tire off the back and found dangerously little pad left on...

    Hi All, I was curious to know if the parking brake actuator could get damaged while replacing rear brakes and rotors? I brought my 2011 RRS to have the rear brakes and rotors replaced. I was quoted a fair price for the brakes and gave them the green light to go ahead. A day later, they called...
  5. Range Rover Mark IV / L405
    Hi guys, I own an RR L405 from 2014, today i got an error (yellow) on the display saying I need to calibrate my hand breake. Any idea how to do it? Thanks in advance.

    Currently have 20% left in the Front, and 15% in the back. I live in the Bay Area and have been quoted at a ridiculous ~$2300 using OEM parts for all 4 from a Range Rover mechanic. Other generic brake shops have quoted me in the ~$1700 - $1900 range. I am ok using the OEM rotors if they are...

    Are there any "better" Brake pads to buy than the factory brakes? I need 4 new brakes and the dealership quoted $2400 for the full kit and kaboodle. FYI I have 30kk miles on my 2015 RRS Supercharged and this is my 2nd brake change I need. AKA third pair of brakes going on the car. Jay

    Hi all, I have read a lot of threads regarding the retrofit of the bigger Brembo brake calipers that are standard on the supercharged/autobiography/SVR L494s. In case you haven’t read elsewhere, they are indeed a bolt on upgrade. Assume this is similar if not identical to the L405 as well. I...

    Morning Guys, Can any of you Gurus tell me from the attached photos as to whether the above recall has been done on my car? Landrover say it was done but I'm not sure, I thought if done it should have 2 pipes going to the vacuum pump, not one? I have the bubbling in the pipes/servo and a hard...
  10. Range Rover Classic
    I am looking for some pointers on removing a 17mm bolt that sits right below a brake pipe on my 91. I am trying to remove the bracket so I can keep the pipes and hoses attached when I lift the caliper off. I cant get anything in the tight space and with the coil spring being right there. Any...

    first post .. always awkward... I think I am in the right place but my wife has a 2008 LR RR with the 4.2L Supercharged engine. Dealer quoted me > $500 for the pads - front and back. When i search on the 'bay or @mazon or whatever I find the pads for a fraction of that. Does that sound right...
  12. Range Rover Mark III / L322
    Yesterday after a sudden brake the ABS and Brake lights came on my car, I stopped the car turn it on/off and they went away just for a short while. The brakes, rotors and sensors were changed less than 3000 miles ago. I started the cat today and turn the wheels lock to lock left and right the...
  13. Range Rover Mark II / P38
    I was told today by three different vendors that the steel brake lines are no longer available for P38. What size steel line and fittings do I need for P38? Any sources in the US would be appreciated. I know where to get the tools for bending and making flares, but I need the actual raw material...
  14. Range Rover Mark II / P38
    Left brake stop lamp is always on just a little bit - park/headlights off, brake pedal not pressed - that lamp is slightly lit, just slightly. Generally can only tell it's on at dusk/dawn. Figured this might be a side effect of a possible factory hack to get the third brake light to work, but...
  15. Range Rover Mark III / L322
    Hi Guys, A couple questions regarding the brakes on my 2011 Range Rover Supercharged. I need to place an order w/ RockAuto for some other parts and thought I might as well order some brakes pads (and rotors) to save on shipping while I am at it. So here are the questions: What type of pad life...

    I've got a 1999 range rover 4.0 SE just wanted to know if anyone has ever had this brake issue. Brakes were working fine and one day I noticed brake fluid on the ground. Looking under the hood it appears to be coming out the top of the resivior. I can sit in the drive way and pump the brakes all...

    Problem-- Lost all brake fluid out of front right caliper. I think this has caused some sort of proportioning valve to block off the brake line to either that wheel or the two front wheels. Still had brakes but very low pedal. Now it can't be bled and pedal just goes right down. Anyone...
  18. Range Rover Classic
    Gentlemen, Sounds odd, but when I depress my brake pedal the tachometer on this '95 RRC goes to zero. When I take my foot off the brake, the tachometer returns to the correct RPM. Starting the truck with foot off the brake, the tach is normal. Sounds as if the brake circuit is shorting the...

    Hello folks, I've an issue with my brakes, in the last 12-14 months/12.500 miles I had to replace both my front brake discs on my RRS TdV6 (MY2007) 7 times, because they were warped. I know that brakes are an issue, especially on the TdV6, but that cannot be normal. Normally brake discs should...
