Fan switch replacement. Where to find switch?
I do not want to replace the entire a/c and heating control unit if I do not absolutely have to. I consider this a challenge to me from Land Rover. The switch is stuck on 4...fan not running, of course. It stopped working when it jammed in that position. I took the dash apart, lots of fun...- Jeff Discos

Front left wheel bearing, 97 D1. Heard slight clicking noises some time ago, only when wheel is at or near full lock. Recently the noise has become much worse. I believe it is the wheel bearing.

Okay, so I have a knock coming from something in the suspension I think. It is really more than a slight knock.

manifold bolts/antiseize lubricant
Always use antiseize lubricant on the manifold bolts? Oh, apparently LR recommends antiseize lube/grease on the manifold/head mating surface. Is this the exact same stuff as used on the spark plug threads and manifold bolts? Thanks- Jeff Discos

There is a refrigerant leak in the rear air circuit, in the low pressure pipe that passes just above the rear left tire. I finally found the leak, YES. I was afraid of having to send it to an A/C specialist. The leak is at a connection. It will be easy to disconnect, as the pipe has been...- Jeff Discos

Tps
I thought about titling this 'Problem with TPS reports' but then not many people would have looked. ;) The usual Office Space movie joke. This is my TPS, right? See first attachment. It looks pretty screwed up to me. Undoubtedly the previous owners didn't want to replace it and just...- Jeff Discos

Strange. It happened twice while at the Pismo Dunes. Both times I had just hit a big bump, but I don't think I even got the tires off the ground. Pulling the key out and restarting the engine reset the lights. That was the only thing that could reset the lights, hazard switch had no...- Jeff Discos
