    rover shop in philly

    Yeah, I'll have to try the guy in Doylestown since it's close. I do most work and will have the computer soon, but some bigger things I can't tackle. I also haven't found any of the dealers in the area to be good. I'd also definitely go to Treasured(I know Trevor's parents) or even to...

    Upper Intake Plenum Bolt Size.

    Yeah, got a few from the dealer overnight. In the meantime(Thurs night), I picked up a piece of rod, turned it down on the lathe to the bolt size, and threw threads on the ends to basically make a stud. This worked for my wife to drive around on Friday. I was getting a P0307 Code on Cyl 7 on...

    Upper Intake Plenum Bolt Size.

    Anyone know off-hand what size the upper intake plenum bolt is for a 2000 DII?? These are the long bolts at the top - 4 of 'em. I need to replace one and wanted to see if a hardware store has them on the way home tonight. Local dealers(2 of them!) don't have them in stock! Thanks!

    Shuttle Valve Switch Failure

    Had the same issue with our '00 DII last Fall. Somewhere there is a procedure to measure the resistance of the switches that are under the modulator. You disconnect the multiplug at the modulator and measure for resistance. In my case, there was no continuity, so I ordered the switch...

    DII Vibration during shifts.

    Have been driving for a few weeks now without the front driveshaft. Replaced rotoflex and things feel tighter, but the shudder around some shifts is there occasionally. It has gotten better, but it's still there. If I do a manual change from 1-2-3 the shudder never seems to happen. The...

    DII Vibration during shifts.

    I'm trying to figure out now if I can do a flush myself and see if that changes anything. If I'm under the trans and the engine is shut-off, I can hear fluid flowing back into the trans sump. Don't know if that means anything or not - I'm not that familiar with an auto box(manual and...

    DII Vibration during shifts.

    Have driven for a day now without front DS. The vibration is still there only not as noticeable or frequent. I may try removing the rear DS(and replacing front!) - wondering now about Rotoflex. Or just replace the Roto since it's not a big deal. The driveline does feel a bit "loose" and...

    DII Vibration during shifts.

    OK - locked CDL and removed front driveshaft. Quite easy actually! Drove for about 45 minutes with normal speeds and some stopping and starting. Didn't feel the vibration at all during shifts or normal driving! The driveshaft still didn't have noticeable play in it when I removed it. What...

    DII Vibration during shifts.

    Never mind about the breather - just found a pic in the CDL tech area.

    DII Vibration during shifts.

    So, the front driveshaft on its way out would cause an issue between/during shifts?? I've seen the messages about it on the board. Will look up the 10mm CDL-wrench and remove the shaft. I have it on my lift now... Searching around the tranny, I found an unconnected breather line. On an '00...

    DII Vibration during shifts.

    Trying to diagnose a vibration during shifting. - 2000 DII, auto, 140k miles - Vibration started a week or so ago(according to wife - I don't drive if often). Took to dealer for trans service - I didn't know there may be issues, so I didn't ask. - Vibration seems to last about one second...

    2001 Range Rover HSE.

    The Rangie is now located at my parent's house in Hilltown, PA, just off Rt 309 - gets a little more exposure there. My wife's Disco is now our hauling and trailering vehicle, although this Rangie wasn't used that much. I'm running around in the regular car now. Garage build has begun, so I'm...

    Nobody Knows the Troubles I've seen...

    Forget the 24" - this baby's ridin' on chromed rail-car wheels! You should see the looks on faces when I'm chewin' up the road with these bad-boy wheels. Maybe I better change them out before I run into suspension problems.....

    Nobody Knows the Troubles I've seen...

    If you want to get a newer P38 with all that stuff already fixed under warranty, I'll have my '01 HSE up for sale in about a month when the new car arrives. There should still even be an extended warranty left on it. Those problems don't sound too bad for a '96 - for a truck that "old"...

    MAF meter/sensor cleaning

    I also recently cleaned the crap out of our MAF on the '00 DII. We had a CE light on and the dealer tried to blame it on other stuff(long story). So I took it out and cleaned it(didn't take the sensor out of the housing and deal with the "crazy screws"). Used a LOT of the CRC cleaner and also...

    Bases Closings

    Yeah, the Willow Grove "possible" closing will affect us. Our building(Motorola) borders the base(get to watch the airshow and practices) and I sometimes go flying with a friend out of Willow Grove(mostly T-34's 'til they were grounded). I just hope they don't build a d*v*l*pment or W*l-M*rt...
