    Water Pump #3 145,000 Mil

    Wow, so many water pumps! Yes, I was referring to the cross-over pipe. Sounds like the genuine Land Rover pump is the best of the worst. Thanks for sharing! Question which cross over pipe is better aluminum or plastic?

    Reversed jumpers on 2013 RR sport - now won't start

    Well how stupid can you be? I was using my 2013 Range Rover sport to jump another car and did the unthinkable and swapped the cables. I did not realize this at first and the Land Rover was running when connected, after 20 second the Land Rover shut off. I then saw the cables were reversed and...

Now today (second day) it did not happen at the beginning but after 10 minutes after starting the car but went away agin after about one minute? Does anyone know what this is and...

    Wiper blades

    The only problem I have with the dealer is the outrages price. If I remember correctly it was over $200 for the wiper blades.
