Fitted a dual battery system to my TDV8 L322. Cleared the inspection due message while I was at it.

I have my new China entry lights mounted at the front today ...
Let's see how long they work.

Ah well car back and rested after its wee jaunt .... 90 all the way and never missed a beat , now just need to get all the dead flies off it .....  ====================================

"Open Mike Night " sounded like a lot of fun until i found out i was going to an Autopsy

I replaced a 20amp fuse in the boot for the cubby power socket. Then I fixed the non working rear washer after removing trim, removing water hose, checking water was flowing then ..... attaching the nozzle or my car tyre compressor to the plastic lug where the hose went and blasting all the out of it.

Hose back on and hey presto it works perfect! I must dig up the thread and add that as a solution, you don't have to remove spoiler just pop off interior trim  09 TDV8 Westminster, Mariana Black, Rear seat entertainment, hatch bag and 2 slobbery mutts

Went up to West India Dock and did a bit of sightseeing via DLR then dinner dockside.

fitted a replacement headlamp wiper motor , swapped the knackered headlight washer pump with the rear washer one , then had one of my brake pipes under the passenger side burst ,both the pipes are totally rotten as well as the rear one which crosses over between sides, managed to drive it to a mates to get sorted tomorrow.

Mrs D wanted a bookcase and bought it local, so we went In the FF......rear seats down tail gate top up and now I'm squashed up front nearly kissing the steering wheel cos the front seats had to move forward just so this thing fitted inside! How do people live sitting so close to there steering wheel while driving beats me, I hated been this close to it. If it dont work.......burn it!

If the IId tool cant fix it.......burn the FF.

If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser!

If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !!

Put it through an MOT, had to change both front suspension arms to pass but was not too hard on the wallet, unlike the upcoming gearbox rebuild..... Tom

Put her into my local indy to get the gearbox oil and filter changed and two new front wheel bearings fitted.
I've had a bit of vibration through the steering, hoping it's just the wheel bearings needing replacing, but getting the gearbox serviced at the same time (done 40k miles since last g/box service).

Got the EGR removal kit, fitting it tomorrow  2005 Range Rover Vogue with Supercharged Accessories
