Second Problem!!

My bro's brother in law was round yesterday (Sunday Night) and he worked at the L/R factory for abit and he spotted a few things that are wrong with my car

1. Air suspension dropped on the left side right is sitting higher up
2. Rear left passenger door has dropped not shutting properly
3. Rear left passenger wheel arch fallen off (know about that anyway)


Don't tell me all part of the L/R experience Mad Exclamation Exclamation RRS TDV6 Gone but still around

Sorry to hear about these problems Jay. Panel gaps and fit is sonething LR notoriously suffered from in the past. I read an article a few months ago testing a RRS vs. new ML and they commented on the alignment and panel gaps in that.

By the way, does your mum secretly work for a LR competitor?

Is she in cahoots with Kam to upset all the LR owners by putting gremlins in our cars electrics and pretending bits just fall off due to poor build quality? Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award Sad

What body part are we talking about here? A wheel arch to me is the metal body area that is part of the shell of the car, are you talking about the plastic trim section?

If so, it sounds like the A pillar issues MDP had, where the fixings are not strong enough and break or pop out. L319 D4 HSE

Right got an update on the Air suspension


Called in at the L/R the other day to get them to look at the wheel arch took a few pics off the car sitting on the drive at any angle before i sat off

The engineer (nice chap) came out to look at it said that we need to book it in to have a look at it. Went in to book it in and order new wheel arch trims told me they will call when the parts are in and they will book it in to do the arches and look at the Air suspension then. 4 Days later i call THEM and the guy Say's yes sir the parts are in W****r

Took him about the suspension the earliest they can book it in for is the 8th of May told him that will do for the arches but can you look at the suspension before then little c*** said no that's the only day they have free at the mo to lpook at it and if I'm not happy call out L/R Assist Mad Mad Mad


So did call them out Very helpful girl on the phone did not p**s me about with it being an import she called he back after about 10 mins to tell me that someone will be out with in the hour he was here after about 30mins


Nice guy forget his name now anyway he hooked his laptop to the car and couldn't find anyproblams with the car after about 15mins then he had a look at the height of witch the car is sitting at

Front Left @ +4
Front Right @ -6
Rea Left @ -10
Rea Right@ +8

So the car is not sitting right at all and it's not just the left one it's all of them Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad RRS TDV6 Gone but still around
