    AC condenser repair/replacement

    Noticed my AC wasn’t working last week, bought a can of recharge today after work and can hear it leaking out. Found a pinhole in the condenser. Thought I’d try a little flux and solder on it tomorrow, then fill it up with the recharge can.. any harm in that? Nothing to lose I figure. If not...

    New Land Cruiser

    The full size IRS is an upsized version of the midsize, which is an upsized version of something off of their sedan platforms. It works, but it wasn’t engineered for a truck to do truck things originally.

    How bad is the 5.0?

    I think most of the coolant pipe issues I’ve seen are from out west. Maybe the drier climate rots the plastic sooner.

    How bad is the 5.0?

    The “no warning” timing chain skip goes against everything everyone has ever said about the timing chain. Which is that is clatters for a LONG time before letting go. I’m also not believe the sudden coolant pipe disaster issue either on later trucks with the updated pipes. I’ve spoken to a...

    I have to pick up a new one, I have a 40L Anker but it’s MASSIVE.

    Nice write up, I really like the basic-bitch LC over the GX but I haven’t even seen one in person yet. still have a lot of life left in the LR4.

    4.0 V6.

    Yea, they got three chains too. One in the back, two up front. My mom’s 03 Explorer rattled on startup for a loooong time but never really had any engine issues. Sold it with 190k on it.

    4.0 V6.

    The SOHC V6, which is the one in the LR3 and used since the late 90s is an interference motor. The older OHV version is not.

    Old timer thread got me wondering, what Rover got you onto Discoweb?

    I'm a bit younger than most of you folks here, but Rovers were definitely my "taproot" into cars. I would go to work with my stepdad when I was a little kid on days when there was no school but my parents had to work, and on the way there we had to pass Land Rover Glen Cove and it was my...

    2011 LR4 Restricted Performance Mode

    I had a dirty MAF cause a restricted performance condition. Had to clean it 2-3 times but I eventually cleared the code. Get new air filters, too.

    New Land Cruiser

    I love his videos. The base model makes a lot of sense, but, no sunroof, no third row. $55k buys a lot of 93 and LR4 parts.

    INEOS Grenadier

    I had OX lockers in my second XJ those were baller. Pull cable, locked. But you had to route a steel cable into the cabin.
