  1. How many miles can you put on a 4.6 V8 before cam belt needs replacing, what do Land Rover suggest, is it a D.I.Y job,does the engine need to come out ??
  2. Anyone know how to remove radio from a 2002 Vogue, I want to get into the back to disconnect it, no way am I going to disconnect the battery again.
  3. ok, finally got my 2002 vogue up and running, one small problem,getting the radio working,switched on as per the book,but instead of the word ' code 'in the screen i get the first radio preset number and by pressing all the buttons they all appear one by one, but no sound,tried the tape,it toggled between side 1 and 2 rejected the tape and accepted it ok but would not run and obviously no sound,any ideas out there, i tried all the fuses. Godzilla.
  4. In my previous topic, ' battery change 'I explained how my alarm system was locked up, I would now like to know if I can tow on 4 wheels without selecting transfer neutral, as I cannot do this with no electric, transfering the vehicle 100km. on a lorry will cost almost what it's worth here in France, the french do no like big petrol engined,right hand drive, English plated machines, if I can tow, what distance is the max ??
  5. My problem is, I have now found out, is because when I needed to charge the battery,I only read that page,which says nothing about switching the ign. on and off then disconnect within 17 seconds, this is only on the change battery page which I had not read,I am now told by Range Rover that it must go to a dealer to reset the alarm system using their computer, this is very difficult here as my nearest dealer is 100km. away and to transport a 2.8 ton vehicle that distance will cost more than it's worth out here, any ideas would be gratefully received, davidwhite@sfr.fr of on the forum, Cheers Godzilla/
  6. I am interested in ripping out the system, since I bought the vehicle 4 years ago, second hand it has been more trouble than it's worth and there is no way a French thief is going to steal an old, non diesel,right hand drive,English plated,R-R, but I have no idea what you mean by needing a 'testbook T4,or bb msv with extra module sw' could you please enlighten me on ; davidwhite@sfr.fr or on the forum. cheers.
  7. Tried that,unfortunately it did not work, it actually says in tha handbook that the handsets cannot be re-synchronised if the alarm is armed,and this is the problem, is it normal for it to arm on reconnection of battery ? I've tried the EKA but no joy,I think this is where the problem is, the door latch that is, it's probably sending garbled signals, i've had a look and it's a hell of a job to check the contacts, I don't suppose you know of anyway to dump the alarm system,it's really not needed here in France,nobody is going to steal an old non deisel right hand drive with English plates, I could happily live without an alarm, thanks anyway, godzilla, davidwhite@srf.fr
  8. I Have a 2002 Vogue on which I have just installed a new battery, but now I cannot disarm the alarm and imobiliser, as the battery is installed it is armed, I have tried the emergency key access code several times,no joy,I have tried resynchronising the handset using the key in drivers door lock method,no joy,I have been in touch with a dealer to check the E.K.A is correct,it is, I am out of ideas,can anybody out there come up with something, apart from calling out Land Rover as I am in southern France, everything worked perfectly prior to the battery change.
  9. I have 2002 4.6 which has less BHP and torque than my 2.7 diesel citroen, is there any way I can get more get up and go from this engine,without spending a small fortune ??? Godzilla. at dizndave@aliceadsl.fr
  10. My 2001 4.6 Vogue automatic has developed a ticking sound underneath, after about 3 0r 4 miles I get this ticking from underneath, about 2 per second, if I stop it still ticks in P or N and does not increase in frequency if I rev the engine, I have checked for anything loose and banging about, but found nothing, any ideas out there, Godzilla. at dizndave@alicesdsl.fr
