Fair enough Graeme. I've been considering putting 275 45 20's on which works out -7mm diameter. 275 55 20's are +47mm and would have expected more speedo error than that. Thanks. |

Did your 09 have 20" rims and does your friend's 07 have 20" rims? Even if they were both 20" the difference in ride of different tyre brands can be significant.

Can you securely tie a small magnet to some string and drop it down the hose? |

Thanks for that chaps. I've had a look on the Allbrit parts diagram, and I think I may have some of them fasteners hiding in the garage somewhere. |

I want to remove the plastic sill covers on my 2011 TDV8 Autobiography to make sure no rust is forming. I can see the pins that need pulling underneath but I don't want to snap anything on the top pie ... |

Thanks for the comments. Just out of interests sake, when I had the gearbox oil changed at a ZF specialist, when I tow the caravan they advised me to use the sports mode when going slowly through vill ... |

Well done you. A man after my own heart. Someone who can look at something and come up with an idea to make it better. Not many people left these days with a bit of ingenuity I'm afraid. |

Thanks for the reply mate. The compressor only runs occasionally. Obviously longer if I've lowered it myself and it needs to refill to raise it again. The front end lowers by about 50mm and the back e ... |

My, new to me Range Rover 4.4tdv8, seems to have a suspension problem. Apparently it has just had a new compressor fitted. I've noticed on just short journeys with speed no faster than about 40 mph, w ... |
