L322 '57 plate 3.6TDV8 Starting/Starter Issues - Resolved | |
So my trusty 103,000 mile 3.6TDV8 L322 ignition is becoming progressively more temperamental. When the issue started, I'd have to insert the key, wait for the glow plug light to go out, attempt to start, nothing happen, remove key, repeat two or three times before she would start. Tonight it took 9 attempts.
I know the transponder is working because you can here the locks retracting when you hold the key fob near the ignition switch so all good there. I'm guessing its the ignition switch itself that's at fault after a few hours browsing the various threads on here.
Looks like a new lock costs about £100, but my question is how difficult is it to fit? My RR is the facelift model which has the key on the front dash below and to the right of the Satnav screen. Has anybody here changed their switch and if so, how big a pita was it to do?
