New Range Rover Owners 2021 Westminster Edition
I agree with rover ranges comment of ‘can be reliable’ I have a 2011 RRSSC with about 130,000 miles on it . I’ve owned it 5 years and on the whole it is good but I work on it myself. If you are planning on keeping it long term my advice would be to cut the oil change interval in at least half to...- alldazed

Range Rover Sport Random Misfire
I’ve owned a 2011 rrs sc for 5 years and it currently has about 125,000 miles on. When I first bought it I scanned it just to see what codes were in. Mine had the random misfires on each cylinder and random misfire first 1000 revolutions so I assumed it hesitated/ misfired during those first...- alldazed

Clunking sound on very cold start
I have the same noise .on a 2011 RRS . It’s something to do with the fan clutch and I don’t worry about it . Been doing it every cold day in the winter at initial start up since I bought it 5 years ago. -

Inner CV joint separated during lower control arm replacement
FWIW I just replaced front passenger axle shaft on a 2011 rrs which uses the same part. I was intimidated by it initially but it went ok in the end . No special tools used , did it on axle stands. Tapped the shaft back through the bearing splines a bit just to make sure it moved.Beat the tie rod... -

Transmission - Mechatronic Valve Body Sleeve (TZV500010) replacement - help!
I was starting to doubt myself but you don’t need to let the wheels turn which is why I did it on ramps which also keeps it level. If you go to roverparts.com aka Atlantic British watch their video on transmission fluid replacement on at the 23 minute mark he explains doing your initial few... -

Transmission - Mechatronic Valve Body Sleeve (TZV500010) replacement - help!
FWIW I did this on a 2011 RRS so same transmission and very similar underneath. As per one of your previous posts I also undid the main support bolt at the rear of the transmission to create more access to the pan bolts. I also used that same thought process to lower the transmission carefully... -

2012 Range Rover HSE - good mechanic recommendations (Mahopac, NY 10541)
Can’t help you with a mechanic recommendation as I am in Ontario but is your mechanic aware that it could either be a hitachi or AMK compressor? If he used the different one there will be a communication problem . I believe the computer can be reflashed to accept it or replace it with the...- alldazed

Should I keep
If you go to Atlanticbritish.com they sell the transmission pan conversion kit and have a video to do it. I did it on my back in the garage , suspension in off road height and on 4 ramps, not lucky enough to have a hoist. Did not remove cross member or exhaust. I raised the back of the...- alldazed

Should I keep
It’s a difficult decision but I have a 2011 Range Rover sport but supercharged with similar mileage. I have owned it 5 years and in my opinion been very fortunate with it so far. It had been dealer serviced when I bought it and I have done everything since. A water pump, an o ring on the...- alldazed

System too lean at idle - Bank 1 and 2
If it was me I’d try cleaning both maf’s with the MAF specific spray cleaner. You could also switch them over and see if the problem changes from one side to the other if the spray doesn’t help. Note that it won’t affect banks by switching them over as each MAF feeds from each air cleaner and... -

Range Rover 2011 5.0 Rear Airbags
At a guess I’d say it’s the desiccant in the air dryer travelling through the system due to age and probably stopped a valve closing properly. By raising and lowering it a few times it probably blew it along a bit. I know some people try to clean them out / replace the desiccant in the dryer etc...- alldazed

Range Rover 2011 5.0 Rear Airbags
I had the same issue but on the front on the same model as you. I replaced the front electronic air control valve and it fixed the problem. Not sure where the rear valve is located. There is also a centre one from my understanding that presumably feeds front and rear.- alldazed
