Mate, which poor dealer is going to get the pleasure of this visit?

I still think we should go to a central point and listen to each other’s cars.

I suggest the home of the legend because its central and I'd like to visit it!

Any other suggestions?

Or anyone interested in meeting up please PM me or post your name and rough location below then we can meet up in small cells. BMW 535d
Landcruiser VX 4.5

Ok sorry for the delay.

The parts changed on my car were:

2x Anti roll bar stirrup bushes

Part number RVU50011 @ £6 each!

First time round they changed the ball joint. No luck. Still sounded like an old cortina.
Just went in again yesterday and they changes the bushes.

Success. No more noise. Forgot what a nice ride the RRS is when everything is working.
Thanks for your postings.

I just wonder how many more owners have had a wrong diagnosis from their dealer after taking their RRS in and complaining of knocks from the front suspension. only to be sent away because the dealer has wrongly blamed the Dynamic Response system, when all along it is these basic mechanical parts which are at fault.

I HAVE THE SAME F..... NOISE FROM MY SPORT SUPPER CHARGE ITS BACK TO THE F..... DEALER 3X IM OF! - THE CAR SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINE IS ABOUT TO DROP OUT HAS ANYONE HAD A RESULT WITH THIS AND WHAT CAN ANYONE RECOMEND I DO BAR ROLL IT OF BEACHY HEAD!!

If its the same noise, then I recommend printing off this thread and going to see your dealer with it - and I dont mean just shoving it in front of their noses - I mean offering it to them as something to look into

Hope that helps

In particular read Umberbob's earlier posting within this thread of the two Technical Bulletins that LR issued to their dealers and take a copy of these to show your dealer - and take notice of what the Voice Of Reason suggested about how to work with your dealer to obtain a result!

How did you go on at the Nelson Garage? I would be inerested I have the same probs.
