There will be others on here with much more experience of towing, and in particular of towing heavy loads, but I have tended to use low ratio only if I thought the car was having a bit of a struggle ( ... |

supershuttle, what you describe sounds like the gear change software fault that has been the subject of a technical bulletin by LR. The problem is that on a downshift/kickdown the lower gear does not ... |

If you are almost only doing short journeys might the P400 PHEV be suitable? Have a look at the Harry's Garage videos on that 405, which seemed to work well, and also economically for him (he does ha ... |

Kendal, the first step is to check if your car's VIN is in the existing LR recall range. A LR dealer can look this up on the LR system for you. If it is then it would be a case of getting the car to ... |

Since 27.3.18 - £12,835.89. That includes a set of winter tyres, but not the spare set of wheels as I bought those when I had my 2012 WM. Not too bad on a per year basis. Depreciation will be abou ... |

This prompted me to look at the German version. The ZF FAQ page talks about "Getriebespuelung" which I would translate as flushing rather than rinsing. They make the point that one should ... |

When booking my 6y service (61,000 miles) I asked about gearbox oil change and was told that LR's schedule was 100,000 miles. I might aim to get it done at the next service, so maybe 75,000 miles. |

They will tell you it is normal and nothing to worry about (see ownerinfo.landrover.com, Exterior Lights). My L405 lights have condensation regularly in colder weather and that is what LR said when I ... |

It depends a bit what you mean by "overlanding". If you have TETs and similar in western Europe in mind then I think both would be OK. Both are wide and won't like narrow/overgrown trails. ... |

Hmm. I tend to put two in the back and the other two on the back seats (with covers) where they have to overlap slightly. If doing that the dishes of the wheels should face the rear seats as otherwi ... |
