I fitted MORE Cheap, Quick Upgrades to my Range Rover L322! 

And with a well-placed Basil Fawlty quote, too! Always a winner! 😀

Cheers Jimmy!

I think these are LEDs already aren’t they?

Cheers Jerry! How's your Rangie going?

Hey Sam, I had to get my air compressor replaced recently. I wasn’t brave enough to attempt it myself. Thankfully I have a good LR Specialist near me that is way cheaper than the dealer, but still does a great job. For fun stuff, I got a rear ladder to put on. I’m a bit nervous drilling into the body, but one of these days, I will get it on. I am getting a Service Required message on the dash. I purchased the iCarSoft LR 3.0 scan tool to hopefully clear it. Thanks for checking in on me.

They're there for function (reverse lights and work lights), and I don't think they look bad.

Did them in the previous upgrades episode. €30 from AliExpress for the same thing 🤙

Go for it, what’s the worst that can happen? 😈

Hey Steve, cheers for the comment! Regarding the camera - mines actually ok in the dark now - but only because of my super bright reverse lights! Before that, it was more or less useless.

Glad they’re enjoyable! If you have look in the video description there is a link to my Amazon affiliate page. I’ve got lists of useful items on there - including the trim tools. Cheers!

Glad I could help! It's amazing how cheap and readily available all these bits are. I did try them in the rear doors and as you say the angle isn't right for them. When the doors are shut though, they project onto the rear passenger floor (a distorted image, but still!).

Cheers! It’s actually something I 3D printed. If you’re interested, I’ll send you a link to the STL file!

@@SamsMotors Yes please. I have a nephew who is into 3d printing 👍

@@tramptruck4859 here you go… www.thingiverse.com/thing:1725308

@@SamsMotors Thanks

Cheers! Glad you enjoyed it! Mine do the same thing. It's just as the battery voltage momentarily drops down when the starter is cranking so it knocks out the LEDs. Totally normal! Sam

No canbus on the led if you have an iid obd scanner you can turn off the hot and cold option

Cheers! DPF issues - doing lots of short trips? Otherwise, the DPF can be clogged by leaks in the boost pipes or inlet manifold/donut which upsets the system.

It's not a problem I've ever heard of on this side of the world. Maybe tint or cover the windows to try and keep the interior cooler?

Yeah it is 👍

No, all good 👍

I think it's a pretty easy job actually, LucyOnCars did it recently without much prior knowledge.

Thanks Sam.

Hey Shane, It wasn’t bad at all really. First job is to apply for VRT exemption through Revenue (can do that online), requires a few documents to prove that you owned it in the UK and will be moving over etc. Once you have exemption letter, just need to take it for VRT inspection at the NCT centre, get some plates made up then get it tested.

That’s actually this weekend’s job along with a full rust killer and undercoat treatment. Watch this space!!

@@SamsMotors good, I keep thinking about a L322 but the rust issues are a concern.Looking forward to seeing the next video.

I’m sure you’re running a telepathic channel - I think of a topic and Sam eerily listens, bit like FB ads, despite them “not listening”… Can’t wait to see “this space” 👍🏻👍🏻 as my rear arches has some slight surface rust. The underside is mint, so hopefully can treat it before the gritters make their seasonal appearance.

Definitely prefer the warmer LEDs for passenger space. The white bright lights work well for showing you exactly what’s going on in the boot. Yes the replacement units are complete with lenses so the snapped tabs on your old ones won’t matter.

@@SamsMotors thanks for sharing - I agree totally. My cool white LEDs have a blue tinge to the edge of the cast illumination so not smitten on bluey ivory interior 😂

Hi Kevin, no I haven't. Someone else commented that they had the same issue and that it was a failing of the BECM, so I'm not sure exactly what's going on unfortunately.

@@SamsMotors Hi Sam, thanks for the update. If you do come across a fix for the problem that doesn't involve replacing the BECM please post it. Thanks. Kevin

Hi Andy, Before I read the 2nd part of your comment I was already thinking “lower front arms”. It’s a well known cause of vibration on the 322. If they were advised in July I’d say they’re the culprit! Sam

@@SamsMotors cheers Sam. It’s in my local garage on Monday for a service so I’ll get those looked at.

Hi Sam Many thanks for your input and advice. Have now had front lower arms both sides replaced as well as wheel balancing and the wheel wobble problem is getting worse if anything. Certainly a good shake at 70 ish (feels like front of car is trying to shake itself to pieces) and sometimes from as low as 50. Also, rather strangely, it can vary depending on whether you’re going uphill or downhill, but there isn’t a consistent pattern. Any more ideas. I’m wondering if it could be in the drivetrain somewhere? CV joint, UJ or maybe even a driveshaft. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Andy

The 4.4 is a definite improvement over the 3.6, both in terms of power/performance and MPG. You should be able to achieve 26-28 on average and 35+ on a long run with the 4.4.

@@SamsMotors Thanks. I think I'll get one this year and use these upgrade videos to perfect it! Great vid as always

Football pitch floodlights is a great way to describe them haha. It's still not perfect ride wise and has good and bad days. I'm looking forward to taking it off the road when I have a garage and going through the suspension in its entirety!

i really don't think youtube needs any more l322 content making mate. there's loads of good stuff out there already. just enjoy the car.

Oops! Updated the link with another seller who has more of the warm LEDs. They're listed as 4500k but should be about the same!

@@SamsMotors hope so, ordered them - cheers!

@@SamsMotors Can you please update the links, current ones are not working. Thanks
