Crikey…..this channel brings out the ‘inner mechanic’ in me I didn’t even know I had!! I swear it’ll go wrong at some point but so far so good 👍 Great videos
Amazing work your knowledge of the car really shows! you put RR dealer shops to shame her in Northeast! many times i have give them indication what the problem might be or they spend hours billing to try this or that and never find the real issues.
Thanks alex. Just replaced mine thanks to you. Had to deviate slightly a bit. Looks like the previous mechanic got the bolts backwards. So had to get creative. KEEP THE VIDEOS COMING. WHERE YOU BEEN
Hello Alex can you provide me with information where I can buy the lower arms for the front for my 2016 Range Rover please great videos on how taking all apart
Hi, great wideos, but why do you not use a proper Nm with torque wrench in Your work? All this wiggling stuff have some planned data from producer of car or manufacturer of parts for longer and better work (and future services). Is the problem is the torque wrench or the leak of data about proper Nm?
Would have been nice to explain the symptoms and troubleshooting to pinpoint the problem. I know in this case, it is visual. Most of the time, it is not and we do not know how to confirm the root cause. We can't crawl under the car while it is being driven.
Excellent vidéo and explanation ! Why do you suggest locking the suspension at access level ? When jacking the car, the wheel remains on the ground anyway.
Just did these on both my 2016 Sports. What an absolute pain in the rear when trying to remove the ball joints (front and lower rear) because they will seize into the bearing cups. Land Rover does not sell the cups, so be careful. Has to use a press, because it appears those 36mm nuts have to be torqued to 214 ft lbs. Also, replaced the bearings on 3 of the them. A normal bearing removal kit on Amazon will not work, as the bearing outer size is about 97mm. The kits have the sleeve ring that is exactly the same size, so you can’t press them all the way out unless you can find a sleeve ring that is about 105 mm outside diameter so that the old bearing can slide through it. The bolts to the frame appear to be 75 ft lbs ( control arms). The sway bar to frame is 80 ft lbs. the steering ball joints is 52 ft lbs. Caliper retainer bolts are 98 ft lbs. caliper trainer bolts are 26 ft lbs. Hope this helps!
Hey Alex, I was wondering if this instructional video can be applied to the same job on a 2016 L494 Range Rover Sport? I have found it increasingly difficult to find L494 RRS info =\
Love the videos man. I have a 2014 l405 supercharged v8 w 73k miles when’s a good time to service the timing chain and air suspension. Everything is working fine car was always babied and maintained.
Awesome videos! I have a 2014 supercharged that has what I think is a parasitic battery drain problem. Every time it sits for over 4 hours the low battery indicator comes on. They have changed the alternator ,and the batteries twice. They still can’t figure it out. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks in advance
My front driver side it feel a little be of shacking while driving over 65 mile ph also I can feel a movement on the same side while putting the vehicle in drive or rivers. Is like the cv axle have some sort of space. My vehicle have 34000 mile only I am a second owner
@@rosethioune7732 I do not know where you could rent one from. But you can buy it from quite a few places, its about US$300.00. There are other makes you could look at that might be cheaper. But the easiest job is with the right tool.
Hello Alex my 17 Land Rover Range Rover is shacking from the driver side tire! Vehícle have 36,000 miles only also I feel a clunk went I put the vehicle on R.
Not true! It’s the same on those vehicles for the same generation. The previous generation is a complete PITA. I am about to do this job in a 2014 Range Rover Sport, and the suspension is identical to this video of the Range Rover.
Good Day! Pls I loosed and removed the two back brake callipers to compress them as the new pads wasn't entering, after fixing them back and bleeding, the brake pedal goes flat at first and comes a bit hard after several pumping but still goes flat when left for few minutes, had tried several means of bleeding, even changed the brake master and ABS Module but still having same brake failure. Kindly help urgently. Sorry it's a Range Rover 2014 Autobiography and all the jobs where done without me activating the maintenance service mode or can it be the cause?
False. I ordered Moog replacement lower control arms to replace the original with 130k miles for only $50/side. Our RRS has been very reliable and the wear items have been very inexpensive. Stop with the lies.
@@JetFire9 NOT A LIE PAL…I have owned 5 Range Rovers over the corse of 10 years. Although I really love Range Rover, they were not inexpensive to maintain. I was fortunate that I had a friend who owned i independent Land Rover repair facility, but if you had to take that car to the dealership, you better bend over.
I have a grinding sound when turning and my control arm needs replacing as the rubber has a whole and no Grease. Do you think that might be the cause of the sound? I didn't notice anything grinding or touching. That is the only thing I see wrong on driver side.
I assume you’ve had this well fixed by now, but usually that is the transfer case. Because this is an electronic transfer case, there was a TSB released in which it needs to be reprogrammed or ‘updated’ by JLR. This is combination with a fluid change usually makes the noise go away. Hope this helps you or someone else!
To verify I am speaking of the other control arm in front of the control arm in the video that you switched. The one that has a ball joint right under the cv boot
Hello thank you so much for video. I have questions where should rent the tool Ball Joint Separator Puller Extractor Removal Tool 204-793A fr Land Rover Jaguar
Hey bro, I was wondering by any chance you know what can be causing my issue I'm having with my 2014 Range Rover L405. I'm randomly getting this clicking/popping noise when I'm turning. It's only coming from my front driver side. I've already change both the lower control arms, and cv axle but noise still there. ;( Any help would be appreciated! Link to my video clip of noise: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GL_sI1hdKTc.html
I have been driving these RR’s for a little over a decades now I mean from the 10 to 21 the best ones were the 2012 models Sport Supercharged. 14-17 were alright but not as trashy as 18-20 they have the worst Suspenssion systems ever at 9000 miles on the dash it feels like crap driving it as if the components are about to fall off. No more Range Rovers they are the worst SUV’s
