It's the design output of the transmission.
Yes, a transmission will take more torque than the design specification, but why take the risk?
If the vehicles had the 90 transmission, I'd understan ... |

Dynamic mode in the Sport adjusts the damping etc.
Sport mode on the transmission module just puts the transmission into Sport mode. That's why in the Sports, you have to select both Dynamic mode a ... |

Are you sure they are scratches and aren't fractures in the plastic? The rear light clusters have been known for the plastic to get brittle and split.

It's actually quite easy to splice into the feed and add a generic aftermarket unit which you can Tigerseal/Sikaflex in a similar location to the existing camera. You'll also find you get better quali ... |

On my 2011, the glove box was actually wired to the interior light fuse, which was actually wired to something else labelled entirely different to what the manual says.

SDV8 is every 16,000 miles, so on many vehicles no reasonable owner is going to get it done like clockwork every 12 months if they've only done 4,000-5,000 miles that year.

By the sounds of it, it's a vehicle you're interested in purchasing, in which case you shouldn't hold servicing items against the seller.
Regardless, main dealer would charge you silly money and it ... |

Just go with Opie Oils - can get all the parts on there including the OEM, and they are a reasonable price across the board.
You can also get Petronas 5000 FJ oil which has the relevant JLR approva ... |

I would totally expect to still have to pay, because at the end of the day, they have done the work, and engines are complex things - it's not necessarily straightforward to diagnose.

Conincidentally, when I locked up tonight, my car also did a fart! Clearly needed a relax after travelling 250 miles, laden trailer in tow.
