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.
Need to buy new tyres and ... |

You can clean most of it off with steel wool kept wet with soapy water prior to using a back to black product. (I'm talking only about the scuttle panel at the bottom of the windscreen).

Michelin Diamaris 4X4 has good rim protection as well

Continentals have good rim protection walls.
The ones I had on my wheels that I just sold were very good.
Hi Pinnacle.
Which Conti tyres did you have? |

No, they are full on Winter tyres. Whilst they have M+S rated tyres, I don't think they have a genuine "All Season" tyre although no doubt someone will correct me on this

Then very strange that you are experiencing a harsh ride with a new suspension. I can’t point my finger at anything else but then I’m no expert.

I run 255/55/19, no issues here at standard pressures of 36R/33F, but at towing pressures of 42R/38F it is a little harsh so I drop the back down as soon as my heavy load is finished with
