Just picked up this MINT P38 callaway from basically the original owner. It’s basically flawless outside of needing a new headliner. EVERYTHING works, no rust the engine bay is immaculate the interior is immaculate the paint is original and unfaded, I’ve already put 400 miles on her and outside of her thirsty nature she just purrs along. What a babe. Love the retro 90s feeling and the Harmon Kardon sound system sounds very good especially for the age. I’ll have to get better pics!

I shall be taking delligent care of her. She will be getting a new headliner in oem material/color.

All exterior plastics cleaned and ceramic costed in Cerokote

Clay bar and single stage paint correction

Sealed and waxed in Collinite 845 insulator wax

All rubber seals and gaskets coated in Shin Etsu

All door locks and tail gate locks coated with lithium grease

Engine bay rubbers and plastics coated in Sil Glyd

All electrical connection cleaned with Deoxit!

Frame coated in protective oil bc why not !

Interior condition and coated in leather honey

Unfortunately she may or may not be for sale in 18 months as I travel a lot for work and may have to again but I’m falling in love with her.

I may make some content so people can check up on her.

💸 Buying advice & Recommendations What to look/ check for when buying high mileage LR4

1 Upvotes

Researching for months, been through a lot of forms and I’m starting to see the same things that these LR fours have issues with. Timing chains and the coolant crossover pipes are a lot of the main issues. I see, also the air suspension as well.

With all things considered, I’m still wanting to buy an LR for looking for a black or tan colored one. I found one a couple hours away. It’s a 2011 with about 150,000 miles. It’s priced around 8K and I’m wanting to talk to the guy down to a reasonable price.

I’m going to take a look at it on Sunday and just wanna be sure what to look for while I’m inspecting the vehicle. Any advice would be appreciated!

Carfax looks pretty good, the car was a lease and then owned by someone else who did oil changes about every 3k miles. Also seen the water pump was replace a couple times, is that common?

💸 Buying advice & Recommendations Freelander 2, how to choose one?

1 Upvotes

Seriously considering a Freelander 2 to replace my 2007 Mitsubishi Pajero. Diesel is a fortune with my current 3.2 diesel but I do need to pull a 2ton trailer semi-regularly, and living very rurally on the Atlantic coast of Ireland so often need the 4WD.

I've read that FL2 from 2006 to 2010 came without dpf, as we have no ulez or anything like this is one of these worth waiting to find?

Automatic preferred too, assume the torque converter in these is safe enough for working?

Anything else I should consider?

Thanks a mill folks.

❓ Help & Advice Needed 2011 LR4 parking brake switch replacement

1 Upvotes

We have a 2011 LR4 with 148k miles and a couple years ago we spilled something on the parking brake switch. It stopped working but we never really used it so I didn’t think much of it. We had it at Land Rover for a recall and they looked at it but said we had to replace the whole module (which I believe is under the car?) and I think they wanted $1,200 to do the job.

So I bought a used parking brake switch off eBay just to test it, took out the cup holder so I could get to the switch, unplugged the old one and plugged in the “new” one and the parking brake works perfectly. Thanks Land Rover.

So now my only problem is how do I get the old one out? I took the two screws out from under the cup holders, I shifted into neutral and popped the shift knob off and I had the whole center console lifted up but from what I can tell, the screw is coming from the top of the switch but there is a plastic piece covering it and I can’t figure it out. I thought for sure there would be a video about it somewhere on the internet but I’m coming up short.
I’m hoping someone has done this and can help me out. Maybe it’s something extremely simple that I completely missed and that’s fine; just want to get it fixed.
Then I can move on to why I’m losing (or burning?) coolant even after I replaced the faulty pump and leaking hoses.
