Hi All,

I replaced the front to rear brake pipes on my 2011 TDV8 last year. When I removed the nearside front wheel arch liner this rubber 'filler' piece fell on the floor. I popped it to one side to fit later as I couldn't figure out where it went.

Can you advise what the codes on the piece are - 'tis a bit hard to read them in pic.

Usually the part no. is embossed on the art and one can identify its location from that. Ron B. VK2OTC

Hi Ron,

Long time, hope you're doing well? Think we last spoke on the Aulro forum when I lived in Perth, now in the UK again.

Had to get my magnifying glass out to see the numbers myself, they are:

BH42-02457-AB

Also has a shorter code of R80FA embossed on it as well.

I've googled those numbers, but to no avail. My machine with Microcat on it has gone up in smoke and I've moved over to the dark side and bought a Mac!

Thanks in advance,

It appears to be LR part no LR022713 but where it fits is not entirely clear from a search. John

when you remove wheel arch liner looking up is FBH and there is pipe going down, the piece go around pipe and itis held in place with wheel arch liner . 2012 TDV8 Black Edition

I saw a post of a similar item somewhere, it was a safety bar to be used when removing the full size spare wheel, there was a strap that bolted to the bodywork behind the spare. When you wanted the spare out you engaged the other end of the strap to the lock recess of the lower tailgate then lower the tailgate, the strap tightens lifting the wheel up. The solid plastic gizmo is then fitted to the lower tailgate preventing it closing. Hope that makes sense, have a look at your spare if the strap is there then that's what it's for.

Thanks for the reply's guys. I think I've figured this out especially once the part number was cross referenced. I'll take a pic to gauge response on whether this is where it goes, as it's still not clear from the parts catalogues...

** Update **

Given the shape of this, and the fact the part number cross reference identifies it as a wheel arch "insulator", I can only think it fits here:

Hi Jon

Reviving an old thread here but this may help th next person that finds themselves in the same position.

I had my arch liner off recently and like yours this part just fell to the floor.
Given the shape of it, it can only properly go in one place. Unfortunately yours is not correct.

See my pic below. It fits round the FBH exhaust pipe and goes up to the subframe, it makes sense when you look at the shape of the cut outs.

Thanks James, really appreciate the reply.

The thing is - Being a rubbery material, won't it melt / burn if it's in contact with the FBH exhaust?
