My first 4.4 tdv8 project

Hi everyone,

Here’s my 2011 vogue se I purchaced 2 weeks ago with faulty air suspension for a little over £7k .. went to have a look in oxford , happy with how it looked and it had the right story to go with it so drove it on the trailer and dragged it 160 miles home with my truck. Fast forward to now its all fixed and I’m on the nc500 for a week Cool
Cars just clicked 154k , full history including some pretty pricey jobs ( New dpf , new rear adaptive dampers , new alternator , front belt and pulleys ) all within the last 30k . runs sweet and I even came across an alive tuning invoice for a tame remap.

It’s se spec with adaptive cruise and ivory interior. So far I have fitted 1 rear bag , level sensor , 2 front arms and 4 part worn cooper AT3 £290 fitted 7mm tread Thumbs Up The rear tailgate needs some love and a couple of other minor marks .

Next up is gearbox service and look into the intermittent water in fuel code I get every 5 times I turn the car on also seen the brake pipes advised on last mot so then may turn into a pain..

Anyway here’s some pics I’m looking forward to gaining knowledge and sharing experiences with everyone on here !

Looks like you fell on that just right, bargain price really +airbag & height sensor. Is the roof tent mounted on standard cross rails or do you have a full roof rack under it?

Although it's three years older (and a 3.6), I got mine for next to nothing as a dealer trade-in, needed about £600 to get it running normally with another £600 of 'improvements'.

We couldn't go camping with a roof tent - the dogs wouldn't allow it!.

May well see you around Derby... Wink

England 2011 Range Rover Autobiography TDV8 Santorini Black

Great little project, I've just picked up a 2011 AB 4.4 TDV8 that needs a few tweaks here and there to run smoothly. Certainly is a vast difference in driving experience compared to my 2004 Td6. Tom
