starting

Hi all, I’ve had my 2007 Range Rover Sport for almost a year now and I’m beginning to question the starting technique I was told to do by the previous owner. He was adamant that I put the key into accessory and wait for the “System Check” message on the LCD screen to disappear before turning it...

Although I'm not sure exactly what "it" is. * So I recently bought an 03 HSE from a sketchy gent for cheap. He said it had been sitting awhile, needed a new battery, no problem I brought my own to pick the rig up, it started & drove home beautifully. Bought a brand new replacement battery per...

A friend told me about this product, he has a Rav 4 with similar cam advance gear rattle. The system is basically an accumulator tank that fills up with pressurized oil when the engine is running. When the engine is shut off, pressurized oil is trapped in the tank by a check valve. When the...

Ok ladies and gents I need some help. I have an 04 Range Rover that died on me the other day mid drive and had to have it towed. Now whenever I turn it on it runs for about 10-20 seconds and just dies after. The codes I pulled are P0506 and it says p0171 is pending. I spoke with one LR tech that...

Last weekend I changed the entire exhaust system on my Gems 4.6 – I’ve been having long running over fuelling/lack of power problems, so I changed the exhaust just in case the nasty old lashed up system was impeding air flow, and choking the car. At the same time, the Lambdas have been swopped...
