Ingeniboom
Chris is always anything but quiet, and today was no exception, while we do fix 2.0 Ingeniboom engines, we dont like them much ๐
He is always the man for an ingeniboom replacement ๐

New turbo for this Ingeniboom today for one of our dealer contracts, Ryan seems to love doing them, so he can crack on!
Burst balloon!
L322 with a burst front air bag, Wurzel due to the lack of ramps today... all 7 Full... decided to do it on the floor ๐ช
Good effort by (caps and t shirts available separately ๐)
Condemned by Landrover!
Such a shame when the main dealers Condem an engine to the scrap pile, when in less than 2 days work it can be running sweet again!
Gav doing Gav things ๐ช
It's a sad day...
Our L322 4.4TDV8 At nearly 250,000 miles this has just killed its passenger side turbo, looks like it'll be parked up til we have time to give it a good overhaul, new chains, guides, belts, idlers, turbos and a new set of front bottom arms.
May even treat it to a bit paint on the back arches, boot lid and a Dinitrol UK ๐
Then all good for the next 250k
Who says there's not a good Range rover engine! We swear by these TDV8 lumps if serviced.
L322 Range Rover Owners
Twinning!

Northern Powergrid what is going on, 3rd time in 1 week, let's hope this time no computers are fried ๐ ๐ ๐
Tippex timmy strikes again!
New Timing belt fitted at Landrover dealer, and then thos happens.... all for the sake of removing starter motor ๐
It may not be linked, but every cam pulley snap we have seen has always been timed up with a tippex mark, not using the correct pin kit.
As always, commentary from lapit ๐
L322
In all of their forms, timeless shape, can go anywhere and look good, at home in a housing estate, or a country estate, and drives soooo well.

Interior is lovely, no lights on the dash, drives very well.
Will take ยฃ3950 with 12 months MOT and a Service through our workshop.
This will also come with 3 months warranty backed by us for any mechanical failure.

Rear steer Range Rover Vogue
Introducing the 4 wheel steer L322 Vogue, highly capable at getting into tight spots, but does appear to have a mind of its own, little uncontrollable at speeds in excess of 10mph, think what's best for this is a fresh rear subframe with a fixed set of back arms ๐
How awesome!!!
Was good to see an extremely local 6x6 Discovery headlining the front page of Land Rover Monthly it's a good nod to the owner how well it's been built. We've followed his build for a long time now and it has been epic. A true craftsman and fabricator ๐
Dinitrol car -
Chassis all done now too, time for the rebuild, see how far it's rebuilt in the morning, 10pm finish tonight.
Treating it to some new goodies while rebuilding it ๐
Dinitrol UK
Something a little Royal...
So today we learnt something new!
In 2008 There was 9 Discovery 3 2.7 TDV6 HSE's built in G4 spec but in Champagne Gold delivered to Tom Archer-Burton, commanding officer in Prince Harryโs regiment, the Household Cavalry, to do the EXPEDITION BURNABY BLUE, Prince Harry to joined the trip from Botswana, through Namibia and South Africa to Lesotho.
This is one of those 9, given to us to give it some TLC, maybe it was the Royal car, maybe not. Who knows, who cares, all we know is it's been a trooper in its day and done a good job.
If you know more about these cars, feel free to tell us, we do love a bit history to the cars โค๏ธ
Come see us at LROLive on the Discovery 3 & 4 Owners Group stand, we will be taking along The Bali Blue 5.0 charger and by the looks of it, all of the MDRS workshop team will be there too!
Someone's kindly put a square round our stand so we can find it ๐
New engine!
Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 back up and running with a new engine and turbos ๐ช
On to the next after a 40 mile road test ๐
Beautiful ๐
Dinitrol UK treat Discovery 4 underbody now looks brand new ๐
4.2 Charger
This one came to us with a partially stripped engine, badly attempted rebuild. Purchased this way by our customer.
A good used Engine sorted, installed, then found immobiliser issues in the bcm, this now sorted, re-coded and calibrated whole car and it's now all good to go again ๐
New Engine day for this one.
Gav doing Gav things.... freshly rebuilt 3.0SDV6 into this Discovery 4 with a pair of new blowers too ๐
Be back up and running tomorrow ready for client collection

Dinitrol update...
All sand cleaned off, Nearly all picked back when I done this video, then rust converter to apply to underbody and coat up.
Chassis been for clean and de grease, when Wurzel is finished underbody, he will crack on with top side of chassis.
Final part is done when it's all built back up and he can get at the bottom edge of chassis ๐
The timing tension snapper 2.7 TDV6 split last night, was repaired and done by lunch, but unfortunately we've had no Internet and phones today, so couldnt post til now, somehow the power outages have caused damage somewhere.
Quick top end rebuild on this D3 timing belt snapper tonight for another garage.
Hopefully get this out n back by lunchtime tomorrow ๐ electricity please stay on ๐
Bit of a slow start to the day with power outages... but Wurzel got the Dinitrol car all masked up to save on the overspray, chassis out in the morning for a pressure wash and dry before it's treatment which will hopefully get rid of all the sand ๐
While that's out he can coat up the underbody ready for rebuild ๐ช
Half the desert on this one to clean off ๐
Old old old school
So we had old school Defender the other day, today we have the great great grandad of landrovers in for a good check over and fettle up.... 1967 88 inch
We had to road test it ๐
Powercuts
Unfortunately we are suffering powercuts today, so things are running slow, we are doing what we can between them.
However phone lines are struggling and so is Internet.
If you need us, drop us a message and we will get back to you ASAP
