I've picked up my new (to me) 2006 4.2 SC now and I want to make sure it's got the best chance of being reliable. I've picked up a few jobs that need doing already and I've made a list of a couple of jobs that I think should be done (based on reading these forums). Can you guys comment on my list? It's on 93k miles with a FSH.

To fix:
Reverse camera - Replace with 2010 item.
Slight clunk at front on full lock when shifting between D and R - Identified as track rod. I'll sort this at the weekend.

Preventative maintenance:
Replace supercharger belt
Replace transmission cooler, filter and flush/replace fluid
Drain and replace coolant
Check SC waterpump is wired the correct way round

Anything else that I should do to it? 2006 FFRR 4.2 Supercharged Vogue SE
2007 Honda S2000
2008 Aprilia Tuono Factory

Change oil in front and rear diff and transfer box 2014 5.0 Supercharged Autobiography & 2015 3.0SDV6 HSE Lux Discovery 4
2005 4.2 Supercharged Vogue SE & 2011 3.0SDV6 HSE Discovery 4
2002 4.4 Vogue
2000 4.6 Vogue
2010 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE
2009 Freelander 2 TD4.e 2009
1992 Mercedes 300D
1986 Renault 2.1 Turbo D
1976 Morris Marina 1.8

Maybe check the rear washer/wiper for leaks/signs of leaks by removing the plastic trim at the top of the tailgate ( you will be removing this to do the camera anyway) . If there are any water marks on the plastic, it would be a good idea to replace the nrv and carry out the seal repair detailed elsewhere on the forum

Put it in your garage and remove the wheels!
