    Expedition Portal Project: 2008 Range Rover Sport

    Thanks for the link, I've never been able to track down a metal version. For what its worth, in the 65k on my '08 I've only had to replace the rear hatch actuator. Everything else has been normal maintenance.

    GAP Tool Nav on Move Update

    Yeah got that far, but I think it only shows production firmware. I updated to the new 3.0 and it doesn't show anything more than that. I'll kick them an email and see what's up.

    GAP Tool Nav on Move Update

    For those with Gen 1 hardware how the heck do I get the special beta firmware? Oh and where can I download the alternate PC interface? I swear sometimes I can't find a thing on that website.

    2015 discovery sport

    Man some people need to let the past be the past. Look at the state of ALL the traditional offroad platforms: LandCrusier, Prado, 4Runner, Cherokee, Discovery, Range Rover. They are all running IFS and some IRS. Can't fit large tires, lots of plastic, too many electronics, etc. . Only things...

    2015 discovery sport

    Lets just clear this up for everyone . 3 families of vehicles: Luxury = Range Rover, Leisure = Discovery, Dual Purpose = Defender. . Discovery and Defender are now more than just models - they are model families. . The Discovery Sport is the first in the family of "Discovery". It is not the...

    2015 discovery sport

    That is true - I guess my real worry is long term reliability - Turbo heat and plastic don't go together, need to get back to the trubo and you might was well replace anything around it as its going to snap off when you try to disassemble. ..... But I'm not sure I care about the long term...

    2015 discovery sport

    My wife really wanted an evoque but too dang small. This is right up her alley and she's spent the last couple hours 'building' one. Now I just need pricing details to see how much the packages cost. A little disappointed there isn't a NA V6 option though. Not sure I want a turbo 4 in a...

    1996 Disco 5 Speed 4.3l Vortec engine

    Dang too bad it is a 96, OBDII plug in required around here. If it was a 95 it would be a done deal :(

    2010 RRS HD??? Rear locker

    Ok now my comment before applies - don't do it unless you want to rip your airbag

    2010 RRS HD??? Rear locker

    Yup you are right - my excuse is a 3 week old newborn and 4 hours of sleep :) Body you would be fine except extending all the components (brake lines, steering shaft and who knows what wiring doesn't have enough extra slack).

    2010 RRS HD??? Rear locker

    Body Lift (or any real mechanical lift like air bag spacers) = bad news with the Air bags It changes the geometry of the front a-arms and can cause the upper a-arm to contact and puncture the air bag.

    2010 RRS HD??? Rear locker

    I'm not so sure guys - on the LR3 you can have the rear lock symbol without the vehicle having one - again this is the LR3 and may not carry over to the RRS in the LR3 world the only way to know is to put your eyes on the actuator on the side of the rear diff.

    Look what I saw in Leadville!

    Awesome pics. This is definitely the same vehicle. In the 2nd picture you posted you can see the faint outline of where the convoy plate was. Also if you view the high res version from the 2012 pebble beach you can also see the outline of where the plate was. So somewhere along the way it lost...

    Look what I saw in Leadville!

    Google searching didn't find any other photos online. I've sent a message to the guy that took that photo to see if he has any more. . It does look like there were some nice rovers at the show - it is sitting next to a nice 2dr RRC . EDIT: I got out Chris Bennett's book on '94 and compared...
