A little action from the weekend.

Great seeing you again! Glad it worked 🙌 Moral of the story: don't listen to Land Rover when they tell you the under shield needs to be replaced for $865 because it has a quarter sized dent in it and "it's making the rattling noise" 🤬

 

Yeah... The undershield is good until you nearly rip it off! I wish we'd been able to meet to guys this time!

 

I did that in NC last fall.

Saturday was pretty tame ride.

 

Its Time for Timing Belt.

 

You going to tackle it yourself or have it done somewhere? I still have another year or so before I'll be at that mileage, but I'm trying to decide on DIY vs shop.

 

This job, I'm going to let my Indy Shop do it.

$1000

They always answer any of my questions, Always a fair price. I am lucky to have them.

 

Here are the pics from my mechanic. Todays timing belt job, and he cleaned my intake and tube.
recommended I clean it every oil change.

Great pics! Thanks for sharing!

 

Surprised he didn't break out the power washer before he started. That was always step one for me. Thanks for sharing though.

Pretty sure our intake tube has not been cleaned. I'm surprised it ran.

I think that's a like 100K maintenance thing? Dare I ask the coin for that job?
