| Mine does it as well, I took a short video of it. Sounds like turbo flutter or turbo chatter to me. Back in the day when I used to modify cars this is the noise my turbos made if I didn’t run a du ... |

I’ve looked and I can’t find.
I would like a pull-out roller type parcel shelf for my L322, no one seems to make one. The standard folding arrangement seems pretty rubbish and is too bulky.

I had a good think about how to tackle this, as I don’t own a lathe, and its hard to find some of these small fittings in stock, from sellers that wouldn’t have me waiting weeks for delivery.

That’s a nice solution. I don't own a lathe unfortunately.
I have been and had another look at the fitting that has snapped. I've cleaned it up and a 6.5mm drill bit is a snug fit in it, so I thi ... |

So today I attempted to fix the broken water pipe by fitting a threaded barb fitting, with mixed results.
I ordered two sizes, 1/8 bsp to 8mm, and 1/8bsp to 10mm. The pipe was far too loose on the ... |

Yeah I bought the new style gaskets, so fingers crossed.
With regards to sealant I notice some people say use nothing on them, some say just use oil, and others say use a gasket dressing of some s ... |

I decided to use the nice weather this weekend to change the gaskets in the oil cooler.
I was told this job had already been done when I bought the car from a Land Rover specialist independent de ... |

Finally got an update on this. I've fixed the noise!
I'm investigating an oil leak so thought I'd have a proper look to see if I could find anything amiss whilst I was down there.

| I have the same charger as you. It will output a steady 7amps at 13.6v. Therefore if your battery went flat in a few hours, it was likely weak already, and the draw from the car during that time was ... |

I just used a simple cable tie, you can't actually see it, I've pulled it down a bit to take this pic for you. The connector itself tucks up behind the gille so you can't actually see it normally.
