Thanks for the reply Gren. The crush tubes are still there strangely. Iβll have a go at tapping it back flat. ππΌ Cheers, Matt

Afternoon all, For the first time since having my 2015 90 from new I have removed the NAS rear bumper step in order to give the rear crossmember a good clean and waxoyl. Upon removing the bumper step I have found that Land Rover have tightened the step up so tight the corners of the crossmember have been crushed/dented slightly. Any idea if and how I could remove the damage in each side without taking the crossmember off? The 1st of the 2 photos shows the gap between the washer and bolt head The second photo shows the bend on the crossmember looking up from the left rear mud flap area Cheers, Matt

Good evening ladies and gents, As the title suggests really. This morning I discovered that my 2015 90 had a flat battery due to me leaving the interior light on for 4 days π. To get it charged up again I removed the battery from under the seat and hooked it up to a trickle charger for 8 hours. The 90 now starts fine and on the turn of the key. However, the engine management light is now being displayed on the dash. I imagine this is due to me removing the battery and reconnecting it. Could one of you knowledgable people please tell me if this would cause the light to come on and how I can resolve it? Many thanks, Matt

Thank you for all the replies. If I'm honest I hadn't even thought of the fire risk side of things. I'll see how it copes over the next 6 months as we go through the colder side of the year and then decide if it's worth getting a charger. Thank you to all who have replied ππΌ -

Perfect, I'll get researching them. Thank you very much Peaklander -
Good evening all, I am after some advice please regarding a trickle charger for my 2015 Def 90 XS with 14,000 on the clock. Since starting a new job I have purchased a second car as I am now commuting over 60 mile per day and do not wish to run the mileage up on my 90. I have therefore put a limited mileage of 2000 on the LR and will probably only use it every 6 weeks for leisure use. In between uses it is stored in a dry garage with an electrical supply available so I am considering using a trickle charger to keep the battery on good condition condition and to prevent it from not starting. Can any of you recommend a good trickle charger and advise on any other areas I could look at to take care of the LR? Many thanks, Matt

If your after good quality look at Flatdog. I haven't got tree sliders on my 90 however other things I've ordered from them seem to be excellent quality and their product knowledge/customer service is outstanding. Even calling them for advice without buying anything seems to be no problem with them. ??

First 12 month service at 6000 miles - LR or not LR?
Wa02ger replied to Wa02ger's topic in Defender Forum (1983 - 2016)
Thank you all. I'll be contacting LR and trying to play one dealer/stealer off against another to see what the cheapest I can drive them too. Once again, thank you and happy Land rovering -

Yes, providing the parts fitted are JLR parts then it will continue to be under warrantee. -
Afternoon all, as stated in the title. My 2015 90 is due for its first 12 month service and has done just 6000. The bit that is troubling me is LR want Β£480 to service my vehicle. I am therefore contemplating taking it to a Land Rover specialist. My question is then does anyone know/recommend a good specialist to take it to near Coventry? Many thanks, Matt
