• Oil change

• I found the C1 professional very difficult to source. Some online places stock it in 1l containers, I don’t think I could find 5l. I think it’s because the dealers will buy it in drums and the 1 ...

• Intermediate Oil Change. Reset or not?

• I’ve started doing an intermediate oil and filter change between dealer services at 6months / 5000 miles.
  
  It was recommended by the techs at a local LR engine rebuild workshop when I asked if the ...

• Wet carpets

• Perhaps something we could all do with being on the lookout for. I’ve seen a lot about the older range rover drains rotting and leaking but I didn’t think the discovery suffered from similar drai ...

• Why hang onto your Disco 5?

• The question was why hang onto your Disco5 and this was my answer.
  
  The car has and does everything we need it to, despite some other peoples bad experiences it's been reliable (so far, who knows to ...

• Why hang onto your Disco 5?

• I don't think it's full of contradictions. I'm aware you've had a particularly bad experience and therefore you'll have an emotional response to someone suggesting perhaps they are not that bad.

• Why hang onto your Disco 5?

• It's interesting to see the different opinions out there. I'm surprised about the number of people who say they wouldn't dare run a LR outside of warranty and who are still paying for extended warran ...

• Yes I’m the same. I put the 22’s back on for July/August when we tend to take long road trips on lovely smooth European roads. I found the 20’s and then 19’s feel progressively more ‘boatâ ...

• I picked up a set of 5x 19" Defender wheels - almost new, with almost new continental tyres on ebay for £250. I think someone had taken them off a Defender pretty much straight out of the showr ...

• No steering assist in 2025?!?

  I think it's the same group of people I've spoken to about the dreaded crankshaft failures, just under a different 'brand'. They we ...

• Looking for used buying advice

• Get insurance quotes, you may find the older one is significantly more difficult to insure due to the cut-off for retrofitting of security improvements.
