Yes, definitely the Disco 4 for me.
The FFRR has really poor storage and not that well thought out in comparison to the RRS.
I like the way the RRS seats fold completely flat and fuss free as we ... |

Despite reading and studying this entire thread, the top tailgate release switch will NOT come out no matter how many people say it will just pop out!

For sale; my much loved RR Sport TDV8. Selling due to expanding family and needing a little more room in the boot.
Meticulously maintained over the last couple of years by myself and have spent a sm ... |

Hi mate.
I changed mine for 45 profile tyres after reading favourable comments on here regarding the ride quality.
I have to say that it is marginal at best and you would be better off droppin ... |

The aforementioned misfire was finally traced to a faulty injector on cylinder number 6. It finally packed up and had to be replaced curing the odd symptoms mentioned at the beginning of the post.

Hi all.
Hopefully not too daft a question but, is there any difference in ride quality between the 05-09 L320 and the 2010-2012 facelift? Particularly at lower speeds.
I'm only refering to the ... |

Hi RRSTDV8.
I've not experienced the problem at any other speeds despite trying to make it happen.
The road in question is a dual carriageway and steep, the inside lane is used by trucks lumberi ... |

Hi iforland.
I've had the inlet manifolds replaced a year ago as one had a slight oil leak.
There are plenty of steep hills with which I can put it under load but, none manage to induce the afo ... |

Hi all.
My 09 TDV8 has a very intermittent misfire or fuel starvation problem. I've had the fuel filter changed and codes read a while back, I think it came up as a pressure drop in the fuel supply ... |

Hi Garry.
My car is a 2009 pre-facelift so the original RRS. I wouldn't doubt for a second that something so simple couldn't be done to the D3 as they both share so much in common.

As indicated in the quote, in the later D4 equivalent RRS you can adjust for different size tyres by using something like the IID tool etc.

Hi all.
Is anyone running 255/50 r20 tyres on RR Sport Supercharged (or similar) 20" alloys? These are the same size as the D4 or L322 running on 20" rims.
