fun

Another fun outing in the dunes with the club :)

It’s been mostly a good vehicle but the frequent dealer service visits to address hvac, infotainment, and basic quality control/build issues kinda soured my first-time Land Rover product ownership experience. Perhaps I will return and give the brand another chance one day. We’ll see...

Well, seeing as we are on the West Coast for the near future, I bought a very nice low mileage Ford Windstar as the "Dog Van" to do shore based excursions (Still on the old lifeboat) This was fine until we got on the LA Freeways.........In the 30 years I have been away, they have gone stark...

As I close-in on taking delivery of a '15 Supercharged V8, I thought I'd ask if there are any small or large, I guess, things you think are great to have. From the perfect floor mats to fuzzy dice...or not (I have to draw the line somewhere). This Rangey has every option package except adaptive...

Ok, not tech savvy and screwed up my first post! I have always fancied a P38 Range Rover but was always put off by their reputation, but not beiong afraid of getting spanner rash I decided to get one. I sold a motorbike I had in storage for 27 years and went out and purchased a 1997 4.6HSE...

Hey guys, I've been having a lot of trouble with my 1990 refusing to kickdown while attempting to climb hills. All shifting seems normal while driving downhill or on flat ground. However, as soon as I attempt a hill, the rover refuses to kickdown unless I do it manually. I realize that this...

You all were so very kind to help a few months ago when my BECM was on the fritz. AFter sending it to Martin to get it sorted (many thanks to him and those that referred him) - the mechanic said the vehicle is still overheating and he believes the cylinder head may be cracked - or in need of a...

So I got my Nanocom today, and this evening calibrated the motors on the HEVAC system, reset the TPS to 0.6 volts at idle, set the idle air to 22 steps when warm at idle, reset the adaptives, and wow, such a delight to drive now. Now I can fix all the gremlins that have been bugging me...

at the end of november, the original compressor in my 2006 RRS finally went belly up. lasted me 151k. indy shop replaced it with a new hitachi unit from AB. yes hitachi because i've got the RS sliders and the new AMK won't fit. dec 31: loaded up the RRS to spend NYE in lake tahoe. full sized...

I have not yet had one of those days restoring My 2002 RR so I was due. I Installed new valve cover gaskets yesterday , put back on the air intake and a few other parts and called it a day. Had an epiphany last night thinking about the small metal inserts , located in the gaskets that the...

I had seen a question about how well the RR would work on the beach so, I figured I would do some research while I was on vacation. I am happy to report that it works very well. I deflated my tires to 22psi, from my normal 35, and used the Sand setting on the Terrain Response system...

We got 10" of snow yesterday and I thought I would post a video of the roads I drive on my daily commute. The roads are dirt and there are some decent hills. The video doesn't show how steep they are very well, but the RR handles them fine. Unfortunately, I did not have my camera when I drove...

This is a fun deal... https://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/the-one-essential-tool-you-need-to-never-get-stuck-while-driving-off-road-161437597.html

so after pretty much a 3 month long rebuild on the motor with EVERYONES help on here. esp Martin so thank you again. ...I'll thought i would add to my trial and errors to be educational with a little humor. but this one wasnt too funny. so rebuilt done, trans fill done, 6am after an all...

The Rover did great. This clip was at the Turtle ridge off-road park.

I decided to take the doors off of my 2005 Range Rover for a day. There's just 6 bolts on each door and one connector to the wiring. Took about 30-45 minutes to do with another person helping. I bought a $10 mirror and it fit into one of the hinge holes. I took it down to South Beach and a few...

Pics....just want some feedback. Maint is first but fun mods are second.

Hey, hello from Milton Keynes, little place north of London, just got my first P38, no major issues to report thus far, several small ones, hopefully. All I've done thus far is remove the light grills and the side steps, like to keep things simple asthetically, looking at swapping out the 19's...

So we have been running our AC a lot. Hot and humid in NC during the summer. Now on start up the AC blasts air that for about 3 seconds smells like dirty laundry. It's very noticeable and not normal. I am assuming some water may not be draining out of condenser or something is going on in...
