    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!

    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...

    Dealer "Fuel System Service"

    We had both our '00 DII(68k mi) and '01 RR HSE(53k mi) in to the dealer this morning for a few small items. They suggested we get the Fuel System Service, only $190, to help clean things out. We've also stayed on schedule with maintenance on both. Sounds like they disconnect the fuel pump...

    Another bad dealer experience...

    Yet another terrible dealer experience: Back a month or 2 ago we had the '00 DII in to have the windsheild checked(defroster lines not all working) and a CE light on. Our LR extended warranty would pick up the tab for the windshield, but they claim the CE is due to a bad MAFS caused by a...

    Anyone have a new/newer MINI?

    I know there are other "boards" out there for MINI's, but I wanted to see if anyone here has experiences going from a Rover to MINI. I'm looking to purchase an S - new or used. How about any dealer experiences and how they compare to LR dealers(better I would assume!)?? And, how easy are the...

    EAS - Rear sagging on flat surface.

    Just had our '01 HSE in for some warranty work and one issue is the EAS. When sitting on a flat surface, the rear tends to sag almost to the bump stops. This happens overnight and is more pronounced during the cold temps. On one occasion after the RR sat for a few days, it took almost 10...

    LR Audio System Issue.

    On our '01 RR HSE, we've been experiencing some audio quality issues. With regular music CD's, there is crackling noises at almost any volume level. This seems to occur at near voice frequencies. One of the more "common" CD's is Radiohead's Hail to the Thief. The first dealer I showed this...

    Stutter under light throttle...

    We've been having a light stutter under light throttle with our '00 DII. Seems to happen around 40mph as it approaches 45mph with only slight pressure on the pedal. It's been happening for quite some time and the dealer hasn't noticed it. Now it seems to be worse than normal. I've even...

    Crackle in Audio on '01 HSE.

    I've been experiencing crackle in the audio system on our '01 HSE. This is the "better" stereo and nav system setup. Seems to come from a narrow frequency band in music and can easily be heard in all speakers, even at low volumes, on songs such as the 3rd and 4th tracks on Radiohead's Hail to...

    DII CD Changer/Player Skipping.

    The CD player on our '00 DII has started to skip or have trouble playing tracks. We've tried a few different CD's and it doesn't seem to follow the CD. It's been getting worse. Can these players be cleaned?? If so, how?? Any other ideas?? Thanks! Jason. '00 DII. '01 RR.

    How long do shocks last(and how to check?)?

    How long to the shocks last on the newer Rangies?? I have an '01 with 37k miles and it's feeling like the shocks may be tired already. How can you check without pulling them out?? At the LR dealer where I bought the Rangie, the service advisor told me that the newer Range Rovers don't have...

    EAS Operation on the road on a '01 RR.

    I've had quite a bit of work done recently on the EAS system on our '01 HSE. However, when comparing this system to my '95 LWB, this newer vehicle seems to do a lot more correcting of height under normal driving conditions. The vehicle seems to correct the height even when hitting a bump in...

    Rotors stuck to hub/flange on '00 DII.

    Just finished the driver's side pad and rotor replacement on the '00 DII. Now, after removing the screw and caliper bolts on the passenger's side I cannot break the rotor free from the hub. I'll soak around the lug bolts and center area overnight with WD-40 and try again tomorrow. Seems like...
