    2011 North American V-8 compression test- help needed.

    Well, this was not what I expected. The compression was over 180. The bore scope showed no damage I could see. Almost by accident I found this. The electrode gap was about .080, and the insulator had broken and was covering the center electrode. All plugs were worn like this. I installed...

    2011 North American V-8 compression test- help needed.

    My 5.0 non supercharged started missing on a grade. Engine sounded rattly, found cylinder 7 missing on scan. 118K miles. The timing chain had not been making any bad sounds up til then. The engine actually sounds ok now, except for the miss on number 7. I would like to do compression and...

    Low frequency vibration? Only while towing.

    I had two shops evaluate it with seat of the pants driving. Both agreed it was the transmission, after eliminating engine misfire, mounts etc. I agreed to a teardown and inspection of the unit. The pump damage was found then. They did a complete overhaul with updated parts and a new valve...

    Low frequency vibration? Only while towing.

    Fixed the problem. Internal transmission oil pump bushing rotated in housing. Just $$$$$ and it's ok.

    My 11 Range Rover had the same symptoms...it turned out to be low freon. The climate control system did not work if the system was low pressure.

    Engine Management Fuses

    Can't really help without a schematic. If it blows with ignition off it probably connects to a always hot buss direct to battery.

    2016 Range Rover Supercharged Gear selector

    Usually a combination of screws and very tight clips that require that you pry harder than you like to release. Suggest you find a manual or video of you model before trying too hard.

    No bass

    If you have the GAP tool or similar, malfunctioning speakers or amplifiers will set a fault. My '11 Range rover shows bass speakers in both front doors shorted. The others are fine. I actually never noticed an issue.

    Charging L322 when locked?

    I will remember that. Also useful if the cable breaks.

    Charging L322 when locked?

    Any luck? I'll look for a way in. The release cable runs along the right fender so I don't think you can access from the grill

    Low frequency vibration? Only while towing.

    One reason I bought a Rover was to travel comfortably, have off road capability, and tow a boat or trailer. Well 2 out of 3 ain't bad. Went for a 300 mile trip, towing a 3200 lb trailer. Went fine, and cruised at around 60 MPH. As we arrived, I noticed a tremor in second gear while...

    Transmission (6HP28) drain and fill

    Plastic pan should have a plug. Search a bit for proper procedures for fluid fill. The required temp is not very hot. Only open fill plug with engine running!
