Personally I give my nipples a squeeze every chance I get, I'm too impulsive to wait for an oil change...

Thanks, Joe. If you ever figure out what will work to extend them without causing more headaches, please keep me in mind. I literally look under mmy rover every time I walk up to it to see if they are dripping on both sides. It's that bad.

I hate them.

Okay. So I pull them out and get some vacuum hose that matches then figure out some way to attach it away from driveshaft and cat on the problem side. Hmm. Thanks for the pic.

Well step one is figuring out what I can reach and pull the nipples with.

Poke the nipples, don't pull them.

errr, well, maybe both if you need to.

But seriously the method is to insert a thin long poker into the nipple to unclog it without causing damage.

Hahaha you and Abran. I'll poke or pull or whatever it takes as long as I don't break them. I have broken a few things (lower windshield cowl, engine harness, rear deflector, and most recently steering stop) not realizing what I was doing or how much it would cost to fix them. I'd like to break that cycle of violence.

they are soft rubber, and look pretty durable. Don't think they would break easily.

I was looking today for a bit but I wasn't sure exactly where they would be. Since you had a hard time finding them can you give me some pointers about where to be looking? Thanks!

They are pretty much directly below where your center console ends, at the front, forward of you high/low shifter. You can reach up and feel the pointed nipples, squeeze them, or pull them out. Warning, you will get soaked. We are talking about under your truck. There is 1 on either side of your tranny.

Question 2017 Range Rover HSE Td6

Hello there and thank you.

Can someone assist in finding where the nipples are located on the 2017 Range Rover?

The odor is bad when it rains, and I must get that resolved, which I think it is a easy fix...
Cheers
LCL
