I did the job today and fitted the new sensor, as well as a pipe that I managed to split taking it off.
It's all good and running fine.
Just for info'. It can be done by raising the car to off roa ... |

| I suppose it's possible that a pipe could have inadvertently been knocked during the work, one of the jobs was new transfer box oil, although I'm not sure if that's close to the sensor. I'll have a lo ... |

Sods law strikes again.
I had the car in at Range Rover World last week for all of the transmission fluids to be changed, but on the way to France from Lincoln I got a check engine lamp just after ... |

I tried to carry out some CCF changes using SDD V165 recently but it just wouldn't work.
I got a Gap IID3 last week and within minutes I acheived what I wanted. |

Thanks.
At first it seemed a bit complicated, but as the heated steering wheel came with everything attached, it was a breeze, albeit needing the Gap IID and the clock spring.
I forgot to menti ... |

Another update with good news.
I decided to get a Gap IID3 from the chap in York and after obtaining the full CCF from the chaps at Gap, I had a go at activating the paddle shift.
Suffice to say, ... |

Maybe try a Jag indie as the 5.0 Supercharged XFR's had tensioner problems, it's the same engine.
Good luck. |

| Engine to body earth poor connection will definitely cause a starter problem. I'm not saying it is that but it's worth checking if you have had work done. |

I had similar on an XFR, it was the battery on it's last legs, a new one sorted the problem.
As yours is a 2018, if it's the original battery, I would replace it as normally they only last for 5 or 6 ... |

You will probably find that a main dealer will say it cannot be done as they don't do retro-fits.
I did mine a couple of weeks ago, a 2015 L494 and it was an easy 30/40 minute job. No coding requir ... |

As I mentioned in my retro-fit of a heated steering wheel, the new wheel has paddles, although they didn't work.

Thanks RRS, seems I'll have to keep cleaning then. I do tend to give the camera a wipe with my thumb when I walk past it.
Cheers. Les. |
