Our Land Rover Discovery 3 had a HDC and a DSC fault. Again. Just another normal Saturday in a Land Rover owner life.
We also do a brake bleeding using the GAP IID tool more or less sucessfully and we service the electric parking brake (EPB). Nothing special - no worries, not a Toyota. Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching.
Vera & Christian
Our LR3 is a 2006 with the 2.7L TDV6 non DPF Diesel engine with about 245t km at the time this video was released. We do all our maintenance and repairs on both of our Land Rovers by ourselves. No LR shop will ever lay hands on our Discoverys and so far we are doing ok.
Please check out our videos every Sunday, even if you drive a Toyota. ,

I’ve got to remember that “Toyota is plug and play, Land Rover is plug and pray”. ! Love it. 😂😂🇦🇺
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😅👍🙋♀️Vera
That is the best line for LR mechanics. Vera, Only drove 136kph? We just got back to Arizona after a 4 day trip through Nevada to California and I found out that the Volvo is governed at 189kph :( Such beautiful wide open roads in Nevada to drive on.
@@toddhoffmaster6057 Yes I remember. Our Mall Crawler also goes that fast 👍😅🙋♀️Vera
Would be nice on the autobahn to let rip with a discovery 4 petrol 5 x litre supercharged V8 , think then it’s gallons per mile , lol
Bless your son for speaking English so we can understand, respect. Good video as always.
I’m looking forward to the wheel alignment correction video.
Thanks for videos
Oh, wow. I was making this up 😳. Now I have to deliver, I guess. I did order the bolts already. Christian
Looking forward as well!
As a Toyota owner I spend my Saturdays brewing coffee and enjoying trouble free long drives !
Thanks for making this point clear. We bought now a backup vehicle, just in case. Christian
As a mechanics in North America still enjoy my Lr3 2006 stil good as news stilll good performance much better than Toyota Land Cruiser ,I’m also Toyota lover this Rover is a Beast ..
As North American Mechanic ,this Rover is a beast , it can beat the land cruiser ,I’m fanatic Toyota lover and more easy to us to fix ..,Once you had Rover and and old one and stand still look you are Jason Stathan,😊😊😊
Christian you are correct… The ABS bleed sequence is the same as a usual brake bleed by pumping/and pressure/vacuum the fluid… the ABS actuation is just to move fluid through the valve blocks and remove air. 👍
At 23 when torquing spacer if you have the torque wrench handle across the centre of the wheel you have the correct torque on the fasteners but less torque or turning moment to cause the wheel to turn. This is because the effective length to turn the wheel is from the centre of the wheel to the handle end. It's a useful trick.
So entertaining and with subtle humour. I'm not a Land Rover fanatic but enjoy this channel immensely. Keep up the good work Christian and Vera. Philip rides his bike like a champion.
All my thoughts too.
😊🙏🙋♀️Vera
I love the rolling replacement of all the parts on the LR. Soon you will have a new LR again, but then the dreaded rust will then need attention. Great entertainment and very good technical explanations. Thank you
Very entertaining and informative. I still have my 05 D3 bought new. For the last 14 years I have done most of my own servicing - often preventative. No GAP IID when I started, so still using a Nanocom Evo. That also left me confused when using the ABS service function.
Many thanks for sharing

The symphony of technology. Wonderful Vera. 👌
Amazing video as always! Quite an easy fix for the ABS module, almost plug and play haha. Great to see you do really drive them on long distances and love the part at the end of the videos showing a little bit of your family life, your sons must be proud to have such cool parents.
😅👍One would think so, but it can be embarassing for him. 🙋♀️Vera
Great team effort. Who else could make changing the ABS module so entertaining.
Thank you both for the brilliant videos🙏 Same frustrating experience last week with the bleed procedure on the GAP tool here! Very ulike GAP. Surprisingly little info when googled. My pedal went clonk to the floor afterwards. Ended up using the same pressure bleeder as you and got a pedal again. Not great, not terrible 🙂
Did the rear alignment and toe in front at home, but am looking forward to You doing the front. So many more variables😬
Sorry for the late reply, hope our alignment video was of some help🙏😃🙋♀️Vera
Thank you Christian and Vera great to see yous again
I want to thank you both, Christian and Vera for your videos and technical knowhow regarding the Land rover LR3, it has helped me with many a task on my LR3s.
I have a question regarding an issue I have discovered with an 08 HSE LR3 that I j recently just bought for a song ($1500), simply the previous owner drove in the worst snowstorm last winter and instead of not driving on an un-plowed road, the individual did and basically performed the plowing with the LR3, simply, he blocked the radiator with ice and the v8 over heated and the thermostat housing cracked, he had the vehicle towed to a local garage to replace the thermostat housing, the garage mechanic, lifted the inlet manifold and (who knows why??) did not replace the inlet manifold gaskets hence engine would not run (no surprises there), when I approached the owner, he had given up on it and wanted to get rid of it as it had stood on his property for a year, hence the $1500, I removed the inlet manifold and cleaned the mess then replaced the inlet manifold gaskets and when I started the vehicle, initially the engine was quiet, but a little time later it started knocking , the sound is on the top, I read up on it and it was suggested that it was possibly the VVT as the sound in what looks like near the cams, I replaced both and it still makes the sound, in my further reading on the net, it seems that the issue is probably is to do with gummed up hydraulic lifters and possibly timing chain tensioners, since the engine has not run in a year, I just need you thoughts on this, thanking you in advance, keep the videos coming, luv them.
This is difficult to diagnose as it is not a common issue. It was caused by special circumstances or unqualified repair. On the V8 the chain guide tensions are known to fail. I have not heard of Rocker and lifter issues. The direct consequence of the idiots actions would be the car overheating (in my opinion). So a head gasket failure, piston damage or injector issues or similar top end issue is likely. A bearing issue would show glitter in the filter or oil pan. Christian
I have only jacked my LR3 with my trolley jack. I have not used the suppled jack once, I hope I never need to. My son (apprentice mechanic) replaced my rear rotors & brake pads a few weeks ago, he did it at home. I just watched as he did everything. The parking brake shoes were like new, with no rust. Nothing was seized and no rust/corrosion. We don't have that issue in Australia unless you don't thoroughly wash your vehicle after driving on the beach or back into salt water when launching a boat.
Another excellent video, thank you Vera and Christian
Hi Vera and Christian, thanks 👏
At the end it looks like Vera does torque after all! Good job!
Awesome job again team , banter on point and Philip is so talented.
27:24 You two are simply hilarious, your channel is a wealth of information. Not to mention how to have a great relationship with your spouse… Just work on cars together! I am about to buy my first land rover 2008 LR3,Thank you for all the great content.
Always great fun watching you both working a UK 🇬🇧 Land Rover in Germany 🇩🇪 on a cold Sunday afternoon with a mug of tea lol 😂 Take care cheers Stevie 😎
Another great entertaining video. Cool to see that you visited my town and really enjoyed it.
Thanks for the great video and I learnt some new things like almost every time ! Super Job and have a nice Rest of Feiertag!
The GAP 11 is heralded to be the best aftermarket, but it is so expensive, as you mention. I bought an ICARSOFT and it was no help fixing my RRS- but the Facebook forum was! It just shows you not to believe the hype. For brake bleeding, I use my son because I can shout at him. It works.
I look forward to your videos every week. They normally come available late on a Sunday night here in New Zealand. I would also like to thank Vera for posting the patches and stickers they arrived here in NZ this morning ( Monday 9am NZ time)
😃👍That is great, thank you. Hope you like them. 🙋♀️Vera
Well done. If she wasn’t there then things would get missed and this would lead to more failures.
So let’s not forget she’s the boss, she needs to keep an eye on your work while she is filming you doing the work.
😅👍🙏🙋♀️Vera
Your son is great on those ramps, excellent.
16:12 i bought a sgs trolley jack in the uk and it bent the first time i used it,utter rubbish,Thank you both for the brilliant videos
Just showed my 9 year old twin boys the end of the episode with Philip on his BMX, the loved it as they have just started to learn BMX track racing.
👍💪🙋♀️Vera
Excellent video,Thank you.
That error I would get going into a valley area and all kind of lights and ding sounds would come on and then that error appears on the dash and dtay on until I turn car off and back on. It also seemed to lower. Ok. I am just glad to know I am not alone. Back to the video!
Great funny video! Amazed by fuel price there. Mind you we are paying 1.25 euro in Australia. Used to be 0.78 euro before pandemic. Love your work, Christian and Vera!
Excellent video thank you.
Well done for getting the GAP tool, it will be helpful. As for the EPB, mine broke over a year ago and I haven't bothered to replace the $900 module. One of the reasons I didn't replace it is because what I consider a flaw. I got stuck in a big bomb hole at a bit of an odd angle (I was captured by a tree root underwater) but the bloody Land Rover then kept applying the EPB, which then failed. So here I am stuck in a hole with the EBP locking my rear wheels. The EPB should have released upon momentum (nope) and nor could I disengage it by taking out the cupholder and pulling up on the release cable. The only way to get going was to join the LR in the mud, carefully feel around the back of the wheel for the EPB cable and cut the buggers off with my bolt cutters on each wheel (BTW these are quite difficult to cut). I was then able to extricate myself.
😳...OMG..., maybe this will help,our EPB Module Service video czcams.com/video/eUSUCN4zi34/video.html so you can fix your EPB. Sorry for the late reply 🙋♀️Vera
Also , Spring is here so looking forward to great LR adventures.
Thank you for the videos, you bring me so much fun and also knowledge. I was working on my L322 today and a german guy passed by, looked at me and said "Good luck". II said thank you and then I remembered your "toyota driver" jokes so I asked him if he was a Toyota guy, he said yes. Hahahhaa. Bless you.
A German? He probably had a Hybrid Toyota Yaris, not a Land Cruiser 😅🙋♀️Vera
Hi Christian, Bleeding my D4 with the gap tool was unsuccessful, mine through up an error, couldn't find any helpful information, then I panicked, then just did it the old fashion way, pump & push. Worked fine.
👍💪🙋♀️Vera
Yea, that DSC procedure is ridiculous. I just went thru the same thing on my '08 BMW 750i. Ended up like you guys using a pressurized bleeder; but instead of having help pumping the pedal, I have a one-way valve on the bleeder hose. I put it on the bleeder, open the bleeder up, then pump the brake pedal myself. Way easier and no potential for divorce...well, not for that anyway. As always, a great vid and yet another encouragement for me to get an LR3. Now, if I could just find one in this crazy used car market we have going now.
Good luck finding one. You'll love it.😃👍 🙋♀️Vera
Enjoyed the mechanical part as usual but WOW on Philips BMX skill. Amazing. One of the things I do miss about living in Europe is the closeness of things. Here in Western Australia I can drive East for 2 days and still be in Western Australia!
2 days easy takes us right into Putins war zone. 😬😫 Christian
Just did 5000 km , from home to Portugal in my D4. Only one small problem, slight coolant leak. Really great trip !
👍 A Toyota driver would make a 4h video about that coolant leak. 😂 Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian 🤣🤣🤣 and probably take Toyota to court for a minor problem on a 13 year old car !
HI LR_TIME team - as usual was very nice to see & and watch your Video, especially this time we have perfect synchronization - just on Friday I change the brake fluid in my lr3. Have a nice weekend and see you next time.
😃💪🙋♀️Vera
You nailed it about talking bad about your rover!!
I believe your channel is one of the best newer Land Rover related channels available and I hope you continue to grow exponentially. The format is excellent and entertaining and the technical detail is superb. I personally think a production company should pick you up for a TV program. There is a laugh a minute with the "German Precision" banter between you both. "OMG" haha! I was born in Germany but I have lived most of my life in Straya slang term for (Australia). Maybe you could learn some of our linguistics as a laugh. Like G'day mate! or No worries! or Crikey! Our family drive a few land rovers, RR Sport L320, RR Sport L494 and Evoque L538. We have in the past had the original discovery 2 many many years ago and it was a powerful vehicle. We used it many times 4WD on FRAZER Island here in Queensland. It did very well with it's V8 engine.
I just had my Range Rover sport serviced and my wallet is crying and not talking to me currently as it is still in shock....lol All the very best from the land down under....
😃👍Thank you. We are actually learning, slowly, Australian slang . We love to watch Ryan from Outback Discovery and also Grizzly'n'bear. I also learned that appearantly , when an Australian makes fun of you, that it should be taken as a compliment. I was always offended when people make fun of our accent or my height. Maybe I shouldn't be😅👍🙋♀️Vera
Finally got rid of my discovery 3. What a money pit. This video gives me shivers.
Great video😂 You both are fantastic.
Whoa awesome bike skills!
No stress Vera.. Christian can tap the other side next week👍💯
OMG i Like it so much 😁 in 2020 for my Last TÜV i have completely replaced the bearing Housing in the left rear, Just cut the Bolts with my Sawzall because they where grown in the Ballbushings. Since then 10000 km no Signs of Tirewear. Its possilble that in Veras D3 ist the Thing that connects the Wheelhub with the Frame Out of allignment or Wien Out.
We'll find out. We replaced the bushings twice, last time, we put inPanzer bushings. That was unfortunately all before our CZcams days. 😅🙋♀️Vera
thank you for taking your time to keep posting every week and keeping your channel going..would you both please post a video of removing the rear disc's and servicing the rear end of the brakes as i would like to change myrear discs but i don't want to mess up with the electric hand brake setting with the brake shoes and setting them correct.. thank you
Agree!! Christian said it’s a boring/simple job but it’s fun being there with them as they do it
No, we'll make a video for sure. We actually can't afford working on our Disco and not make a video about it. We do not have enough time and money to spent during one week working on two projects.😅👍🙋♀️Vera
Thank you.
Hello Christian und Vera - have you ever experienced central locking gremlins. I have experienced the car not locking and beeping twice to tell me there is a problem. Another occasion it locked with the keys on the passenger seat and my dogs in the back and recently random doors do not lock or unlock. But as usual the local Land Rover tells me I am the only person in the world to experience these challenges. Keep up your amazing LR story - I watch all of the time and learn all of the time.
It may be only one door not locking. Sit in the car and lock the doors and you can see which one does not lock. Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian As always it does not happen every time but next time I will jump in and watch the doors - thanks for your help.
@@Vera_and_Christian Thanks Christian - The driver's door is not locking so first try will be WD40. Thanks for the tip.
From memory and I stand to be corrected.
Park brake service. Tighten adjuster until 50lbft (in old money) registers on torque wrench on centre hub nut then slack adjuster 8 clicks . Any time we changed discs we serviced/cleaned handbrake shoes and/or replaced as necessary. Used Autologic to drive cables into service position so if that's not available a work around that would be an interesting video. Snap-on supplied me with a brake bleeder. Ran on 12volts and from memory pressurised the master cylinder reservoir and fluid to 5lbft (old money again!) This allowed the wife to stay at home and truly was a one person job. The low pressure avoids activating any abs shut off/bias valves. You all have good patience there. I see a Toyota in your future lol
Great video as always . When do them I reverse bleed first then forward bleed after
Then that’s usually it done .
I’ve never managed to bleed them with the diagnostic computer
Other viewers wrote that the GAP is only for the ABS pump, which makes sense. Christian
“Toyota is plug and play, Land Rover is plug and pray” 🤣
omg Arctic Frost is so cool! Love it! That hand brake motor sounds like it needs grease... and the cables? Great video
No it doesn't, that is the sound it makes, trust me. If the sound would be different, then you should worry. We replaced the gears last year and greased up the box. We have made a video about that, of course. Next we'll be replacing the EPB parts on the rear brakes. But thanks for your compliment. 😃👍🙋♀️Vera
I like that you're teaching us non Germans some vocabulary. I wish my US spec Golf R is able to adjust speed based on road signs
Isn't it annoying that the rear wheel articulation does everything it can to make removing the rear wheels as difficult as possible? Only use I've found for the supplied vehicle jack is moving the suspension arm back up :) Automatic speed limiters will soon become mandatory on new cars, and always on ... Great video as always!!
Allways excelent vídeo content 👌👌🤙🤙💪💪💯💯
Hi Christian, I don't think there is anything wrong with your front shock/airbag. It just gets a build up of dirt on the bag former because the front struts don't have a protective rubber boot. You can just clean it off. You may need to use a bit of force. I cleaned mine last time I changed the shock absorber. Another enjoyable video. Philip looks like his Mum.
Thank you, I think so too that it is just gunk built up over the last 16 years. 👍🙋♀️Vera
Another great video, Guys! And great riding by Philip too!! I wonder if the wheel alignment issue you have is related to that rear suspension boot repeated failures?
I don’t know. I couldn’t find the root cause for the failing boots on the right. Christian
Pumping - is as you say, but, make sure stop and hold at the bottom when tighten bleed nipple. I think another video where you clearly and in detail go through each step of the bleeding procedure would be helpful. Similarly, a video on a full service of epb where you dismantle, clean and put back would be useful ("everything you need to know"). These are jobs we cannot do and save $$$. Great BMX and Nederlands trip segment 👍
There is a link to Our full EPB video included in the video. Christian
I now find myself going "Click Click", when tightening bolts :-)
😅👍🙋♀️Vera
According to his instructions, I testify that Christian WILL DO (if not already done), all the necessary maintenance. 😁
Of course he will 😅 I made him order all new parts for my rear brakes, including discs, pads, and all new stuff for the EPB parts. 👍🙋♀️Vera
Endlich ein Wort das ich auch verstanden habe - fester - :)
😅👍🙋♀️
The GAP tool works. The action for pumping is the same as the old method - you repeatedly push the pedal for 6 or 8 times and then you keep it pressed. At the wheel you open and close the bleed valve. Then repeat the pumping process until it tells you to move on. Vera was correct at the beginning as she wanted to pump the pedal. Good luck. How about the pesky air compressor C1A - gallery not venting fault fix for a video suggestion
omg this is so relatable. l/r owners LAMENT! I have 3 x d2 l/rs just for parts as i live out of town .
😅👍Even scrap LRs are costing a fortune here these days, otherwise we had one already at home.🙋♀️Vera
Too true Vera. Good luck going forward. Love your vids
With those shreaded boots, maybe try making some from neoprene (wet suit arm or leg). I'm sure Vera could make some slick ones that lace up.
This week we have started having faults and some that just keep coming back after clearing. I replaced the front struts 2 weeks ago and was super happy with the D3. Faults are scary compared to mechanical parts.
Yes, thank you, great idea. I will order neopren and get to it right away. Do you know what triggers those faults and of nature they are? 👍😃🙏🙋♀️ Vera
@@Vera_and_Christian Any guesses on why they go that way were dashed when your other side was unharmed and happy. I would think even small branches at the wrong angle could do it, but just guessing. Given how important the air bags are, im surprised they dont have a sheet metal or plastic shield.
also looking forward to wheel alignment at home !.........wow !!!
Nice video, thank you for showing that it's important to do a verification before leaving on a trip especially if it's not a toyota. 🤣🤣🤣
I have also replaced that same air suspension boot twice, odd how the other side is okay, very odd. I replaced my rear struts ( tow vehicle) easiest struts I have ever done,.
Your English is very good, how on earth did you learn to speak it so well.
Love this channel so much info! Question what are you using on your phone to connect the ECU?
Google „Gap iid bluetooth diagnostic tool“ you‘ll find all the info needed. It‘s expensive, but worth it if you are a dedicated diy Land Rover mechanic.🙋♀️
👍👍👍
sorry I am late , what ever you do is never get brake fluid in your eyes I did and was off work for a week it burnt my eyes and it does not taste nice take car love your videos
According to the service manual, the bleeding bottle must be at least 30 cm higher than caliper. So, you basically see bubbles coming up through hose, pretty nice indicator with no air getting in by any chance. Full line bleeding of rears takes 15-30 pumps and pretty lot of liquid should go through there. If there are bubbles in top points of lines then you need to pump that quite fast, so they get into caliper with the flow of viscous brake fluid and not bubble up again.
The way ABS pump bleeding on the front works (the noise) made me scared the first time that something is going to get definitely broken. I was using Launch x431 though, it says to pump the pedal during whole process. Anything with Bosch ABS bleeding of specific version should work also.
P.S. After trying wife-at-pedal approaches, I ended up using a short wood plank to hold the brake pedal when needed.
I ended up using the pressure from the bleed system to push the fluid through and then only a few pumps together with Vera. I should get a bottle with a check valve or a internal hose so I can keep pumping without closing the screw. Not sure what Vera would say if I replace her with a piece of wood 😬. Thanks for your tips. Christian
Another great video guys, quick question, why did you put wheel spacers on? Maybe why your tyres are wearing?
The car is much more stable on the road, especially with the RTT on top. We have worked on suspension parts twice before our CZcams and wheelspacer days. It maybe just about time again.👍🙋♀️Vera
As always an extremely informative video , must confess I used a vacuum pump on each wheel , large bottle filled with brake fluid on the master , started with the furthest wheel first , then after doing them then attached the gap iid for the ABS module , just found it easier doing it that way as it was just me , also used class 6 brake fluid as JLR specified , thks again for sharing and looking forward to when u change the rear disc / pads , know the gap iid has a feature where u can disable the EPB , plus may i ask what do u think of the drilled and grooved discs please as heard there supposed to be better , always fantastic getting ur option seeing ur very knowledgeable, all the best to both of u, take care 👍👍, ps, was going to post a link of the one I used but can’t post them here as for some reason they get removed by utube
Yes, CZcams will not allow any websites posted in the comments anymore. Most of the times it is good, because it eliminated about 80 % of the spam comments we get and have to delete immediately. But for you guys, it is bad. You can only send those now per email. 🙋♀️Vera
@@Vera_and_Christian , hiya , ah yes that makes sense with regards to spam being reduced , plus hope u didn’t mind me asking with regards to what u think of the drilled / groves discs please as going to replace all of mine , alas not sure if that type are any better or not , hope ur both keeping safe and well , looking forward to ur proposed rear brake disc video , thks again
Remember just push down on pedal and let it return. Makinng sure you have fluid in resoviour all the time while doing it. Starting furthest away from master cylinder first and work your way beck. You are looking for bubbles in the bleed pipe. When the are gone its done lock up bleed screw. And then its done
Yes we know, that is how we have always done it for 30 years now. We just expected the GAP tool to have more precise instructions. Most of our viewers, having a GAP tool, have never ever done a bleeding procedure and expect the GAP to tell them what to do. We try to include GAP content in our videos, but we are not always all that happy with that tool. However, we used it on Saturday for our alignment job, and it was absolutely perfect that we had it at hand. 👍🙋♀️Vera
So having complimented you on your English last week Christian I now need to correct you. The correct English terms are Castor and "Camber" and not Chamber! It is pronounced as kamber. I enjoyed the video anyway and also liked the Plug and Pray line!
Oh, damn. And I even googled it during editing. Good to know for the next video. Thanks. Christian
Hi I would check the rear upper wishbones front bush for tire wear I had the same problem and the front bush on the Upper rear wishbone head gone but I would check all the other bushes at the same time and the bolt was seized in so use plenty of WD-40 when fitting a new wishbone you have to put the bolt in first before you can install the arm you’ll see why because the body gets in the way there is a slot in the mountain for the bolt to slide through when installing the wishbone
Our bushes are nearly new at front and rear. I think I got too much camber or some toe in. We will sort this and make a video. Christian
Vera looks far too relaxed working the pedals!! This is definitely a setup!!
He cut a lot of OMGs out in the editing process, otherwise it would scare people away from the procedure. 😅👍🙋♀️Vera
❤️❤️
apparently having a scan tool to bleed the Abs is just for the fronts and its to remove the air inside so you will have to wait for the air from the abs to the calliper..
Makes sense. The old fashion method did get air out after some time. Christian
Very informative and funny video. What scanner and app are you using?
Hi! I've just subscribed. Great work!! and also funny. I have a FIAT and although it doesn't break every 2months (touch wood) it keeps me entertained. How do you keep that good spirit when working?
I cut the swearing out mostly. Christian
Loved the video and feel bad that I changed my rear brake shoes and disks without doing the 10 click procedure but did manage the wife in the driving seat bleed procedure without any divorces to change the brake fluid. 😜
I had the same left front tyre wear pattern so used a cheap laser alignment tool to adjust. Swooped the rears for the fronts and now waiting to see if the wear pattern comes back. The car does drive straight now so I fixed that. What thickness are your wheel spacers and do the TuV like them?
Sorry for the late reply. My car drove straight also. In the driving behavior, there was nothing to indicate that something is off, also no clonking noise from worn out parts. We have not been to our TÜV yet. Due to Corona, you had to get an appointment like in two months time. And now, we forgot since there is always something elso to do on that car 😅👍. But I have to go soon anyway to get our new 2 year TÜV, and then we'll see. I believe we have the 20mm, but here is the link to the video where we installed them with all the important information, like what is street legal here in Germany. czcams.com/video/MfXb24Ln7cE/video.html🙋♀️Vera
great video, once again 😊 ....but Vera, why haven't Christian put on some tree and rock sliders on you're car yet? even better, with all you're equipment he have in the garage, he can make them himself for you. will make it easier for you to enter the car, and also look great at the same time 😊
Yes, sorry I just only read your comment now. But thank you, I have been begging for some for 2 years now. However I have no problem getting into the car, I am quite fit and agile, more than most of my age. 😅 But I do want to ride along on them when filming on trails, so I don't always have to get into the car. 👍💪🙋♀️Vera
I love your channel! I own a 2011 LR4 with 192k miles! And have owned three LRs, two RRs and still have a 1973 series iii. What gap tool do you use with your phone?
The only one. GAPIID. Christian
Christian… Cooper slip is old school and not suitable for your hubs and wheels… it causes a reaction and galling of alloy components… get some Permatex Aluminum anti seize paste- it’s designed for alloy-alloy and alloy-steel components. Copper slip is only suitable for steel-steel components- copper slip on alloy-steel like you hubs and wheels it can ‘cold weld’ the wheels on👍
One note, you have the wheels off so often you probably will not have a problem but people who don’t take their wheels off at least annually could be stranded with a stuck wheel .
Vera: did you eat at the Taco Bell? Or will you wait for Christian to be there with you?
P.S. Thanks for the patch and the "mall crawler" sticker. The sticker is perfect for my new mall crawler 😬
Of course she went in there. And then she send me a WhatsApp 😫. I even got a Mall Crawler addition of or sticker as well with an extra symbol. I think your Diesel Mall Crawlers would also need a particular symbol. Christian
Ha! A friend of mine just had his parking brake seized up. The broke it to get him moving again (he was going on holiday) and they're not going to fix it!
😅👍🙋♀️Vera
Hi , im new in your channel but i think you are the best mechanicals of the wold. I have seen a lot of yours video. What diagnostic tool are you using ? Thnk a lot for all this information.
Mainly, we use the GAP BT iid tool👍🙋♀️
@@Vera_and_Christian thnks
I'm watching this while wearing sweat pants, the bonus is they have plenty of lunge room!
Sold my Land Rover and bought a 4runner. I'm bored because nothing breaks but saving lots of $$$.
Vera and I saw a 4Runner yesterday during a walk and we talked about how boring that car looks. Still, fully understandable. A LR is extremely expensive to run, even for us. Christian
The brake bleed procedure is strange. It bypassed one of my wheels in doing it. Went with traditional methods afterwards. GAP tool needs revisions definitely
Same with us. At two wheels nothing happened. Christian
Very entertaining. Main takeaways for me:
the stuff about almost getting a divorce a couple times
"open the plug, spray some WD40 in, and close the plug."
"German is no good, I gotta do it in English"
I still don't understand why there is no Taco Bell in Germany.
Philip is amazing.
Lol. Yes, the repair looks funny on video but it was very stressful. Check the scene were I show Vera the dark fluid while she is in the car. There was a divorce 30 seconds before this scene and this is why there is no comment from her. Christian
Looks like that German salt is hard on the underneath. Waxoyl worth doing or if u can get it krown rustproofing. Check out Britannia restorations for a video on krown.
Not sure if this helps and only 9 minutes in so far. Pump usually means push pedal and release about 5 times. So in this context you push and release 5 times then hold pedal hard. Then as bleeder is opened the still pushed pedal moves downwards.
Hope you watched till the end🙋♀️
@@Vera_and_Christian I did
My 16 yr old land Rover Discovery must be the most un serviced vehicle still running I enjoy drinking coffee much like Toyota owners if Vera and Christian ever looked at mine they would be both saying o my god how is it still working 😂 (I do change the engine oil every year maybe this is the secret)
That is all we want. 😅👍🙋♀️Vera
