Having lived in Tulsa know at least there would be little rust on it.

Have similar situation with a ‘96 4.0. Takes about 15 seconds for my tick to go away at startup. On occasion I get a tick after engine warms up and driving. Mine is a lazy lifter that will loose pressure. Comes and goes. Eventually will need addressed. Nice Rover. GLWS.

Exactly.

In all the 52 years of legally driving and owning more vehicles I can remember I’ve never owned a brand new vehicle that needed a new engine on initial ownership. So what if it is a brand new engine being built in a brand new factory? Its called manufacturing Quality Control and proper up front...

For gawds sake. It is 2020. They spent how many years “developing” the new Rover. And then advertise how much testing has been done on it for reliability. Sorry, don’t buy it will be worked out. There are just too many electronics to accomplish what?? And yea first year may have teething issues...

Probably none as it was a bored-out version of the 4.2-liter that was used in that era Jags.

Just as a fyi, you can always add a ARB locker to a LR3. It might open up your search.

It takes forever to get a good reputation-it takes minutes for it to go away. Great call. Look forward to reading the install sheet - RTFM😁

Thanks!

With Winter approaching, the Rangie will go into hibernation. Thought a good project would be to make sure all the ground wires were in good shape. Does anyone have a list of where they are all located? Thx in advance.

Yes, agreed. Yet guess it depends on what you want as the end product. I still have the OEM Range Rover Waterproof seat covers and on occasion I put them on and while they do a great job just don’t like the feel. Realize they are not the same as those being discussed yet seat covers are just...

As an alternative get them redone at local upholstery shop? With new foam and rubber diaphragm you’re back to new!

That looks like a more up to date concept. We were in Brasil in 2006 so technology limited. Great application though and thx for info.

When we had our 110 in Brasil the insurance company insisted a LoJack be installed on it before issuing a policy. Can’t say I blamed them as we were living in São Paulo. Sucks getting a car stolen.
