Interesting reading this thread.
I purchased some replacement LED's for the dash but found them to be very directional and they do not light up everywhere they should. I changed them recently as p ... |

Quick question - a request for a description and / or pictures of where the jack, tools, bracket etc. go under the passenger seat, adjacent to the vehicle battery.
Mine was removed as a speaker was ... |

Apologies if this is random, but I remove the viscous fan in the winter. Left at idle the engine cools, but stabilises about 60 degrees when it’s 0 outside. And therefore heat in traffic or waiting ... |

The search goes on I guess... :-/
Any update from you, ob1c ... |

So updates from me ...
I collected my LR today as it had been in the garage for the 80,000 mile service (as a reminder it has done 47,00, so this 12 month service was time-based). All fine and als ... |

Hi Phil - just read your reply also.
I noticed your point about the oil thermostat being visible only by removing a hose. When I popped in to the garage recently to got them to check mine, I don't ... |

Not a stupid question at all; I guess if we can't get a resolution to the core issue, this would definitely be something to try along with the other various 'band-aid' fixes.
