  • Range Rover Velar – Upgrade Tacho

    Hi, next week I pick up my used Range Rover Velar (BJ 2019). The vehicle corresponds in almost all points to my ideas – except for the speedometer, which is unfortunately analog. I was a bit surprised because I thought this model always had a digital speedometer. Do you know if it is possible to convert it to a fully digital version? And if so, do you have tips on where to make this professional? Here also photos, please note – only as example there is no lack of coolant . Thank you in advance for your feedback! ??

  • First car – Defender ?!

    Hello, I’m going to be 18 years old and I’ve been talking to my father about my first car. My father has always wanted to have a defender, and for me he’s actually one of my dream cars. For us, only the 90’s is possible, because the 110’s simply too big. I’ve already got quite a lot of information about defender, but I have a few questions and I think there are some things that can help me. Well then I’ll start now. I like the “classic” defender quite well, but I think it’s even better if it looks more modern. My ideal would be a black one, with darkened disks and everything so that it looks so “bad” to me. See picture! I know that it’s so expensive and as first car for me is not questionable. I’ve thought about buying a used car. (I’ve already found a good one that cost about 15,000 euros) and I’ll be able to compare it to myself even so much that it’s a good one.

  • When it comes to driving comfort, there are still a lot of things in the Argen as well as with the service partner of the brand Land Rover

    Since the 28.07.15 I drive an Evoque Diesel with 150 hp and Automatic. In the meantime the SUV 7500 KM ran and used 7.4 L diesel with mixed driving mode. At the handover one missed the tire truck from 3.5 atü to normal 2.5, the vehicle was not clean. On the rims still residue of sticker remains which could only be removed very hard. After the first kilometers on the highway ( straight and wind still ) the car moved to the left. When driving straight ahead the steering wheel was so slightly inclined to the right. The workshop we meant the steering wheel a little bit and then the whole thing worked out. Far missing the error was not fixed. After a further 3 weeks I got an appointment in which the track should be adjusted but now I have already driven over 5000 KM with a wrong adjusted track. The error in the track was admitted and fixed. Customer service looks a bit different in my eyes after all! So far so good. The vehicle is awarded with the very uncomfortable suspension but even my DBK 200 Bauj is available with an excellent off-road option.

  • Disco Sport: Do Dachreling + Box without Side Steps make sense?

    Hi, I’m close to my order and I’m thinking about ordering the Side Steps. The background is that we need more storage space for the holiday than the trunk provides. So I’m going to order the roof rail and a roof box. Since the car is now quite high and there are railings, carrier and lower shell of the box, the loading height is probably at 1.90m. For me (1.80m) that would be somehow chargeable and unloadable, but nice is something else… :-/ That’s why I thought about the Side Steps. I’m just disturbed that the ground clearance is greatly reduced. On the other hand, little children are certainly looking forward to the steps when boarding? Does any of you happen to have a DS with roof rail and/or side steps and can post his experience? Greetings, Hauser

  • Discovery Sport Configuration -> Help Looking for

    Hi, would you need help with the configuration Discovery Sport, we are having a hard time with the configurator: “Must has”: Td4 – automatic – 7 seats – leather seats – Navi – park sensor vo+hi – hands-free system – seat heating vo – heatable windshield – headlight cleaning system – normal climate – multifunction steering wheel – middle headrest 2. seat row – glare automatic I notice that in the configurator the winter package is not to be combined with the 7-seater option. The S-equipment variant cannot be configured with leather seats in the configurator (which was possible with the Evoque at least at the dealer). I actually wanted to upgrade (like the Evoque the pure version) the S-equence according to my specifications, but does not work. How would you configure? Stefan

  • VW exhaust scandal and Jaguar/Land Rover

    “Jaguar/Land Rover Germany (JLR): Jaguar Land Rover does not use any equipment or software to manipulate emissions. The legal requirements for vehicle pollutant emissions are carried out within the EU after a test cycle under normal laboratory conditions. On the basis of this test cycle, all Euro 6 diesel vehicles on the market have received a Euro 6 approval certificate, signed by a representative of the approval authorities. Jaguar Land Rover has committed itself to developing the latest technologies for petrol and diesel vehicles to reduce emissions and meet all global standards. “Extract from car-engine and sport…… But here JLR only refers to Euro 6! What about our Euro 5 Discover’s? sunny Wiesn Greetings from Munich ibirider

  • Range Rover Sport MY16 HSE Dynamic

    Hello together, On the equipment variant HSE Dynamic, which I preferred, Land Rover apparently made two unsightly optical changes to my terms during the new model year: While it was typical for this equipment line that the accents are kept in Gloss Black, it is now stated in the price list: “Einfassungen der Fogleuchten und der Abzugöse in Corris Grey”… I suspect, with the inclusion of the towper, the underrun protection should be meant (skid plate), right? I have only found two photos of a model year 2016 on the internet so far, as it looks like, is only the underrun protection at the front and back in Corris Grey… Fortunately, if the entry in the price list is actually wrong here !!! Basically I was inclined to order a vehicle in Santorini … A light grey plate in the bumper should look pretty stupid in this way How do you see this? And: Does anyone already have experience with the exchange of Skid Plates? Best regards!

  • ViOil cover lost Range Rover TDV8

    Hello all, I have unfortunately lost the oil cover of my Range Rover TDV8 3.6 liters. At Ebay I bought the one: https://www.ebay.de/itm/134443523032 Unfortunately it does not fit! It is a screwable cover. But the stub has nothing screwable. It is simply smooth. Can someone maybe find me a link from the accessories? Thanks for the help!
