I empathize with your increased lack of resources based on being in hawaii.
You're on Oahu though... Surely there's some part outs in Facebook and Craigslist classifieds now and then?
Ummm Errrr No.
In fact, its one thing to get parts here with extraordinary shipping rates and then a whole other issue to have anything done to any Land Rover. There just ins’t the love for Land Rovers here that there may be elsewhere.
We have 1 dealership here and they are complete thieve. Then thee are the few Indy mechanic, I’m counting like 3 maybe 4 on Oahu and even them you will very quickly realize are not exactly top notch. I just had the D2 sent back to one shop 3 times because the mechanic did not repair the valve cover gaskets properly at an $810 bill.
Living here is lovely, but getting anything done is another story.,
