Discovery 4 Sat Nav reset

Wow!!! What did I find? Help me figure this out.
It is a restrictor for the PCV system, It is designed to control air/oil vapor getting into the intake manifold, I don't know the side effects of leaving it out if any, I have seen a few vehicles with it missing..- rally3

LR4 "Smart" Charging Charging Strategy
The known issue of headlight dimming has been with non hid lights and it is when the heated windshield is automatically turning on and off, Land Rover changed the programming on later models to combat this, the voltage fluctuation from the adaptive charging is not a sudden change, so it should... -

Pentosin CHF202 is the equivalent to factory power steering fluid, and should be much easier to find as most late model European cars us it. -

change of 4.4 l on my LR3 to 5 L or 3L
Same reliability as the 4.4, I worked at a LR dealer from 2001 to 2016 and never saw a 4.4 or 4.2 SC die of natural causes (all were either overheated or never had the oil changed....) The Sport and FF RR had more problems than the LR3 may have given it a bad rap ? -

change of 4.4 l on my LR3 to 5 L or 3L
Or just swap in a 4.2 Supercharged from a 06-09 RR Sport ?, same trans and engine mounting points, same generation engine management system, They did change the final drive ratios to make it feel quicker, similar HP to the 5.0. -

Jump start short + puff of smoke = charging sys. fault
There is a small wire that runs from the positive terminal to the battery monitoring unit on the negative post, that wire is most likely burnt up, I thing it is a fuseable link type wire. -

No Worries, :smile: The 03-05 Range Rover used the older 5HP, everything before (Except the Freelander) that used the 4HP
