    Doors won’t lock with door switch?

    The key was in the car, car was running. Doors were unlocked, I hit the lock button and nothing.

    Doors won’t lock with door switch?

    I just tried to lock my doors with the lock/unlock button on the door, and they won’t lock. They do unlock, but lock button does nothing. If I push the lever above the door handle the doors lock. It’s not a big deal, but I’m wondering why they don’t work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oil leak?

    I'm just waiting on a couple more things to come in, and weather to warm up a bit before I pull her into the garage and get it done. I miss driving it.

    Oil leak?

    When I saw the two different procedures in the shop manual, I had to investigate. The luck I'm having with this truck already that would be icing on the cake to not have the INA Chain.... Here is some info that was given to me by someone that has tackled this job already: Jaguar changed the...

    Oil leak?

    As I am getting everything ready for my timing chain install, I realized last night that there are two sections in the shop manual for the 5.0 V8 Petrol Timing Chain replacement. One for INA and the other for TSubaki. After doing a little searching I found this: There were two types of timing...

    What oil are you using?

    Oil leak?

    Yes, preventative from what I’ve read about the tensioners. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oil leak?

    I see some people replacing the tensioners and guides, others the tensioners guides and chains too. It is my understanding that the tensioners had some issues, but what about the chains themselves? Why would someone go in that deep and only change the tensioners / guides? Sent from my...

    What oil are you using?

    I don’t know how much truth there is to switching oils and then leaks showing up, but I think that might have been the case with my LR4. I’m not sure what the shop that sold it to me put in it, 1600 miles and it’s a leaker, big time. I was able to get service history to see what was used for the...

    Voyager Rack Ladder Nightmare

    It sad how many company’s are selling a product that’s powder coated with no prep work underneath. Thing is, the companies most likely don’t finish these, and just send the raw materials in for coating. Most of my steel gets blasted, phosphate dip, epoxy primer, and then the color coat. Regular...

    Oil leak?

    I’m planning to do the whole timing chain kit, so new chains, guides, tensioners, valve cover gaskets. I’ve read enough forums to know I should just change the chains while I’m there, some say they stretch, and with 125k on the clock why not. As for other accessories, water pump for sure...

    Oil leak?

    I haven't given it a proper cleaning / degreasing, but I guess that is a mute point considering I have committed to the Timing Chain / Guide / Tensioner Replacement. Even if I found a leak that was an easy fix, these things need the timing chain addressed anyway. Check out this pic of the...

    Oil leak?

    Sitting here ordering parts to tackle this job, I can’t help but think there is something else that is leaking. This whole thread started with what was a few good drops on the driveway, but it quickly progressed to a lot of oil leaking. It’s been parked till I get to it, but could a leak that...

    Oil leak?

    Ok, so for the timing chain kit, where is the best place to get the kit? I was thinking Atlantic British?

    Oil leak?

    Oil leak?

    On another note I just changed the vacuum pump seal, super easy. Took me maybe 10-15 minutes. The old seal didn’t seem too bad, but I did notice it was much harder than the new one. Fingers crossed that I fixed one leak. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oil leak?

    I just ordered one from Atlantic British. Figure it’s probably best to have one in my hand before I do it, especially if it’s a rubber seal, and nobody has ever changed the oil via the drain plug. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oil leak?

    In the shop manual it just says discard sealing washer and install new sealing washer. No mention of a part number. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oil leak?

    I am thinking about doing a conventional oil change (using the drain plug) while I have the belly pans off. My only concern is what type of seal is on that drain plug, copper crush washer? I have a box of assorted copper crush washers, just don't want to pull the drain plug and find out I don't...

    Oil leak?

    When I started this post I was going to replace the vacuum pump, as I suspected it to be “one” of my leaks. It wasn’t in stock at the time so I just grabbed a new gasket. Things have been busy and the LR4 was parked until I can get to it. I still think it’s strange how I drove it all the way...

    Thousands.... I hope t was closer to the 2,000’s than the 4,000’s.... I hear you on the injector issues, indys and dealers don’t finesse it like doing it at home. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What oil are you using?

    I bought one of the oil evacuators from Harbor Freight, think its a "Holt". When I tried to use it, the rubber adapters were such a hard rubber I couldn't get it onto the tube under the oil cap to suck out the oil. What model evacuators are you guys using, and are the rubber connectors a soft...
