NEXT QUESTION !

I have searched the Wiki and threads etc and have a deployable steps question

My previous L322 had Deploy Steps

My 5.0 S/C does not have steps but does have the roof switch

My question is

Do any L322 have switch and wiring pre-fit or could my 5.0 have previously been fitted with Deploy Steps ?

I will take off the steps from my bost L322 and use them again and be a great bonus if the wiring is already there

I will put over a garage pit and see if evidence of wiring or fitment marks 2009 - L322 5.0 S/C Autobiography

Oooo look what I just found !

Certainly looks that way

Just hope whoever removed the steps on my 5.0 (for whatever reason) didnt cut the wires from floor to steps

Thats a nice little job for next week

So I’m looking at at 5 supercharged soon so thought I’d subscribe to check on your progress….

How you finding it? Is the drive good? Do you get 20mpg ever ? Does the 2009 have flappy paddles?
My Disco will make way for the sc if I’m brave enough….

Enjoy it and safe driving

They drive like any other fatty, just a fair bit faster, we did 5,000 miles to Spain and back and it did 20mpg sitting at maximum allowable speed, 70-80mph, usually got 15+ in normal day to day driving...

Yes it has flappy paddles but the gearbox was always better than me in deciding which gear to be in so never used them...  Pete

Can someone please take a pic similar to mine of the lower trim on the bumper showing which part/s are missing

Thanks in advance

p.s grill badge is on order

Your towing eye cover is missing. Here's what it should look like:

The part number you need is LR018350. They're about £100.

Front trim now present and correct

No flappy paddles 59 plate

Returning 13 MPG round town

Lovin how it gets down road

I do not keep an eye any longer on miles left in tank or MPG
I simply run till tank reads half and then fill it back up

If you haven't got a GAP tool (and don't plan to get one), get someone with a licence or full diagnostics to turn on your "angel eyes" daylight running lamps like I have on mine. By default they're only on when the automatic headlights are on but can be set to be on all the time. 2015 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 SDV8

BooHoo had to spend some money today !

Drivers front linkage assembly for the deployable steps I have "borrowed" off my TDV8 was totally seized and cracked

New frame/linkage LR004810 ordered and motor assembly removed ready to be installed in new linkage

Ah well at least thats the first and only spend in a month of 5.0 S/C ownership !

Oh and just a bit of petrol lol lol lol 2009 - L322 5.0 S/C Autobiography

Into 3rd month of ownership and 1st fault hit today !

ALTERNATOR

Battery light goes on and off as expected but voltage when running only showing as 12.6-12.8v

So enough "charge" to keep light off but not enough to actually charge battery and run vehicle

Thankfully not getting bad prices for either a recon or new unit 2009 - L322 5.0 S/C Autobiography

Pretty sure it has a smart alternator that puts out what the battery needs, not necessarily full power...

I'm not near the WM at the moment so can't check... Pete
