| Thanks guys, yeah, I wouldn’t dare use that kit if it’s in fact Chinese made, but I was figuring feedback would be interesting. And indeed the 5.0 V8 is known for chain problems (well, problems wi ... |

Hey gents,
Just picked up a 2010 FFRRSC Autobiography in Galway Green to add to my fleet and was gearing up to replace the timing chains, guides, tensioners and variators (they aren’t making nois ... |

Hi gents,
Recently discovered the lower glove box light switch on my '09 HSE was letting the light inside the glove box remain lit, and therefore draining the battery after a bit. I've ordered a ne ... |

| Thanks Adrian, I had a feeling it was going to be the whole strip. And I agree it’s pretty expensive new. Looks as though it’ll be a trip to the breakers yard for me! |

LHey all,
Wondering if anyone can tell me if there’s a part # for the small piece of trim at the forward end of the roof gutter on the passenger’s (US) side. It’s an ‘09 HSE. See photo in m ... |

Greetings from the States gents,
Hoping maybe someone can shed some light on my HVAC problem I’ve got with my Rangie. If it matters, it’s an ‘08 HSE with the Jag petrol N/A 4.4 lump.

| Thanks mate. I've gone and ordered new ball joints as well as arms just for precaution since my rig has almost 200K on it. |

Gents,
On my FFRR, an '03 BMW V8 model, and I notice a few things with the front end;

| Probably no mods, I prefer them lock stock, but my main concern is if it's becoming a 'bucket of bolts' at that mileage. My '05 FFRR (and previous '03) had about 110K on them when I launched both of t ... |

| Zeroing in on an '06 S/C FFRR with 130K on it. What's everyone's opinion of the longevity of a blown L322 with this kind of mileage already behind it? Assuming the previous owner(s) stuck to the 7,500 ... |

Those clamps are called cobra clamps.
Probably so because they'll give you a nasty bite if your pliers slip off of them  |
