Inspecting & Deep Cleaning The CHEAPEST 4.4 TDV8 Range Rover L322 in the UK 

That's proper commitment, detailing a car in the dark. I would have just sacked it off and got a cuppa! Mate, keep the RR content coming as it's convincing me to buy one.......dunno what my wife will say about that though......!

I just sold my 2008 Range Rover with 74k miles. Surprisingly one of the best cars I have ever owned. I was very sad when it pulled away. My wife and I figured out it was like driving a BMW on steroids. Fortunately I had a mechanic that was able to work on the car. So, if you’re wondering what I replaced it with you’ll be quite happy to know it was another Range Rover 2017. 30k miles and still under warranty just like the last car. So enjoy your new car and good luck with your channel.

I love the background sound tracks. Just the right volume to accompany the videos, which are great btw!!

Popped up on my watch list, really great video series. Definitely subscribed for more!

When you have a passion.. there is no meaning to time!

Nice bit of carpet sniffing! Great job. Looks fab

Looks like you've got a bargain. I absolutely love Range Rovers, there's nothing else like them for a comfortable, relaxing, and safe drive. Ive owned a P38 for the last 9 years and won't even consider driving any thing else other than a Rangie. I have often considered getting an L322 but have so far resisted. You've started me thinking about it again now. Great videos, keep them coming. Oh, and by the way, gorgeous coat.

Brilliant, love the attention you have given the interior :)

I'm so glad that you have such an awesome reliable motor. 👍

Great video Sam, absolutely loving your Range Rover content 👍🏼

Discovered this set of RR videos. I’m very much enjoying them as I’m thinking of buying a similar car soon! Thanks for your time making them!

Really clean underneath and very little rust considering the age and mileage. Fantastic buy 👍

Love the videos and very lucky with the car overall and what a bargain. At least you know what you are doing and are able to do the work and have the facilities to do it. Brilliant. Loved, liked and subscribed.

Hi Sam love the show & content, I’ve always been under the impression the the ride was a bit lollopy in a Rangie but it sure is a tidy car good luck 👍

Great to see you back at it always quality Land Rover content 👍🏼 would love to see more of the 130 when possible 👍🏼

I enjoy doing this stuff to cars I own putting alittle love into something that's been neglected, also just purchased a supercharged sport lol

Hey mate, great video. Quick note to yourself and anybody else.. for Powerful UK, if you could order directly from their site, it means more money in their pocket as they will need to pay eBay about 10% fees. I am not affiliated with Powerful UK at all.. I do think those guys have a fantastic service.

The interior has really improved visually with all that hard work Sam. I'm a long time Landie fan, having had a series 3 109 with a V8, as a daily driver for a couple of years after I gave it a full wheels up rebuild and put the V8 in it. I also had a 1969 series2 swb as a trialler before building a true trialler from a Range Rover classic much, much shortened chassis middle, front and rear complete with fully opening 14" wide rear doors! Then series 1 V8 Disco for ten years which I converted to run on LPG, then series2 V8 already on gas. Sadly circumstances forced me to sell that due to the insurance cost after an accident. And now I run a bloody Toyota Yaris ! Lol But I still very much miss my Disco, and all things Landie.

There's nothing I enjoy more than indepth videos on Range Rovers, this is awesome

Looking forward to the journey of the old girl 👍

Big up the Leamington crew ! 🤘🏻

Excellent video

I enjoyed your videos, I have been thinking about getting a Range Rover. I seen the company you mentioned in Reading, I wasn't sure about them second thoughts after I hear what you said. Thanks 👍

Well presented, great clean up job. Love the car happy motoring when you can.

Great Job. Respect. sad these RR are still expensive in Europe.

NIce one, just ordered a set of those bulbs for mine, Thanks for the top tip.

Thanks for that a very informative video i will look forward to more

Would be great to see it on a ski trip at some point. Great video as always

Brilliant,well done buddy

That workshop looks familiar .. 🤔.. and now a youtube star 👍

Great content man! I've always wanted a Range Rover but went the "safe" yet boring route and bought a Lexus GX460. Your content is very educational and may help motivate me to make a RR happen some day!

Amazing value for money, if I wasn't sinking money into something else I'd have to get one myself.

Also, lmao when that snab on the rear of the headlamp broke. Been there done t hat!

This is glorious thanks again.

Looks good underneath, hardly any corrosion....saddle soap is great for leather...😁

Great video. I had a 3.6tdv8 sadly had a lot of issues but I still miss it. Nothing compares to the driving position in these. I’m not sure if you know about it but the forum fullfatrr is a great place for parts & advice etc. Enjoy your car it’s looking great.

Looks great underneath, I saw a few when I got mine that looked like they had been stored on the titanic

Love to watch this channel. Go ahead! Greetings from Holland.

Loveing the Videos.

You've got me thinking about buying one now.

I just bought a 2009 facelift 3.6. I would get the rear arch liners out and pull the plastic sills off, I had to rustproof, paint and cavity wax my rear sills/arches. The steel is very poor on these later L322's and the rear arches/sills get dirty and blocked, rot soon starts. One rear arch has a hole in it. My 3.6 gearbox is quite clunky, done 140k. The 8 speed is supposed to be a lot better, however mine will be used as a second local car so a dpf was asking for issues. I had to recolour the steering wheel with a kit off ebay, magic sponges work on most things including door cards. Nice purchase, brave buying from that dealer. Mine flew through its mot bought it with 2 months which was dodgy, my rear also sits a bit low. Subscribed!

The DPF you pointed out is a catalytic converter and those were temperature sensors. The vacuum lines are exactly that. They’re for the pressure sensor to calculate the soot value in the DPF

Great car

Hi Sam crackin car I was going to go for a range rover but went with a 2011 bmw X5 40d not as comfortable as the range rover but goes like stink and only £305 a year road tax great car bud enjoy 👍

Underside looking good for the age and british roads.

I'd love a land rover but having seen my old boss who owned several during my 30 years with him , have numerous problems and terrible service from the main dealer who only seemed interested in selling him his next one I'm terrified ! He is a millionaire who could afford to book them in to the dealer where as I'm an ordinary Joe who cant so looks like I'll have to continue with the dream/nightmare. Great videos really enjoying as a new subscriber 👍

You'll be pleased to know that the exhaust system is stainless steel, the rear/larger canister coming from the downpipe is the DPF

Subscribed - thanks for not being annoyingly over the top like some youtubers, you seem like a genuine bloke! FYI we have the same colour leather in one of our cars - couldn’t tell in the video as it looked like you just used mf towels but get a brush to scrub the leather, you’ll be amazed at how much more dirt you get out. Ours came up like new. We use Dr leather cleaner but I’m sure the autoglym is just as good.

Cool video love the L322. Look at a gyeon leather kit or dr leather stuff to really make a difference to the leather.

great video

Liked and sub'd just because of intro. In market now for '09 V8 in USA. Cheers

Hi Sam Vids are fab!! Just bought a 2010 L322 4.4 V8TD, my current RR is a 1995 P38 which has just passed the MO|T but its becoming a struggle each year after 241K. I have had the P38 for 18 years and it has been great. Bit nervous on the new one 120K full service 2 owner very tidy cost £8500 keep up the vids

I'm certainly enjoying your range rover videos. I had an old P38 then I had a 4.2 supercharged. I'm getting another rangey in march. Probably a 4.4 probably a 2012 version. The 2013 version is sparce for buttons and switches. So 2012 is what I'd prefer. Keep the videos coming.

Great content. I've done over 125k miles in my 3.6 L322 now. Great car, hence I've kept it.

Sam it would be really nice to hear that engine running from outside the car

I have a 405 in mind for nxt year or maybe a Cayenne.

No worries about the turbo's then???? Great Vid and one day im having myself one.

Used to drive hgv and all air suspension we found best air bags were fierstone bags don't know if they make them for RR but worth investigation.

Another great video and no doubt I will be wasting more time on eBay looking for one, although I do still love my 2010 Discovery 4, but it’s service and MOT time in a couple of days!

And those lights are perfect for blind in traffic coming the other way

Sam two things to check the 4.4tdv8 do leak water at the back of engine. The thing to check asap is the small hose that comes from the top of the engine. This hose goes to the 4 way fitting on radiator hose it becomes very brittle as do the fitting connections. The pump will empty your system pretty quick I lost 3 litres in seconds from getting out of the car to the front.

Loving the Range Rover content, what software are you using on the laptop, and is it readily available?

I really like your channel, looking forward to more new episodes. :-) What is the JLR software called that you have installed on your laptop? Can you please give the correct specifications, as I would love to get hold of this..... I also need to adjust the suspention on my 2013 4.4 TDi Overfinch. Thank you in advance. :-) :-)

Looks like a really good buy. Where can I get the SDD diagnostics?

Those alloys for £137 is crazy cheap 👍

Absolutely fantastic content, I'm looking for a replacement for my BMW 730D and a RR L332 tdv8 is right up my street, I just needed to see an honest UK ownership review. I was looking for an autobiography 2010 4.4TDV8 or newer but your vogue looks great. You've really opened my eyes to higher mileage cars now though, I know that Landrover service history is essential, but I enjoy working on my cars so it'll be fun. Thanks, your channel is brilliant keep the vlogs coming.

what ebay auction site did you find the range rover

Great job. But you shouldn't use the machine in the roof linner as they tend to get unglued when wet. Hope will be ok. That car looks a lot better.

Loving the videos Sam, as I'm looking into buying one of these. A bit wary about doing work on it myself, as I'm not very mechanically minded. Do you mind me asking are you a professional mechanic?

Loving your videos. What diagnostic software is that?

Hi Sam, did you find out what the void underneath the car was for?

how cheep was she? and what are the miles, any faults with the gearbox?

Can you post an Amazon link for those bulbs please, cheers 👍

Hi Sam and thank you for another great video. Started watching your channel when you bought the RR and now starting to see her coming back to life. I was truly amazed at what the selling company did for you in terms of replacements and then FREE DELIVERY . Could you please leave a link to their ebay business? I think I know who they are but just wanted to be sure. I'm a big fan of JLR products - currently owning an xj diesel but love the idea of a 4.4 RR diesel. What's the mpg like ? Dave

Hi mate, regarding the leather balms, dont bother with them. You cant feed modern leather as its coated and sealed. All the balm does is sit on top of the coating and attract dust.When you get in and move around on the seat, that dust acts like abrasive. Best to just use a gentle leather cleaner and keep them vaccumed.

Would you consider EDT engine cleaning or similar and diesel fuel system cleaning for a high mileage vehicle, NOT THE LITTLE BOTTLE FLUSHING CHEMICALS FROM HALFORDS, EUROPARTS ETC.....

Sam what’s the best oil for my 4.4 ? Can I use mobil 1 ??

Has the headliner held up after extracting it?

Sam, should you get a Range Rover remapped, thanks

feel sorry for me i cant clean my car often as i live in a flat with no allocated parking so on main road and it gets really dirty as all the dust and muck off construction lorries gets on it, really why dont the foremans on these building sites get their drivers to clean the lorries before they leave a site at end of the day?

what happened to the cummins 130

Jesus that suspension looks complex.

I’ve always fancied a L322 but been put off by repair costs. Maybe I’m due a mid-life crisis purchase 😉

Changed the engine on one of these a month ago. Big old lump.

What bulbs are you using

Pay a dent guy, don't risk making it worse.

For the algo.

That underside is crying out for a dry ice clean

Don’t bother repairing the steering wheel, get a new one and trade in the core c/o @powerfuluk

Why am I now s rolling through L322s on eBay! Curse you Sam!

Gas mileage sucks. Too damn bulky.
