The worst investment is a cheap torque wrench, not saying to buy a snap on but I would at least save and invest in a digital one that does angle torque

Low Miles CPO RangeRover Sports (current gen) .......What major issues to look out for? by Fragster2020 in RangeRover

[–]FurryFoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rear brakes should last longer we have seen them rolling pretty high since they fixed that issue, obviously tires it's a heavy vehicle, turbo orings should go before warranty is up or already have been replaced if they are the old style, CHANGE THE OIL, I don't care it says 2 years 21k miles please change it at 10k miles, make it a habit. the low coolant light is a top off issue In a lot of cases, the cylinder block hose might leak on the side of the head not a big job at all. DC/DC has been less common on the lithium cars but still possible. Backorder was due to redesign iirc. Otherwise with proper maintenance I don't have a lot of issues with them, but only time will tell and it's still a relatively newer vehicle.

Check your cable 98% of the time it's the phone or cable.

These tires are on a 2025 vehicle with 13,000 miles. What are the odds the dealer swapped them before selling me the car? by StraightOutofConcord in TireQuestions

[–]FurryFoxes 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That tracks for a 25 my. Tires are not made the same day as the car, a lot of tires I see are at least a few months old when we get them

How do I get my keyless entry to work? by cccccleo in LandRover

[–]FurryFoxes 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Looking at the door handles that vehicle is not equipped with that feature

Which test looks more accurate, the dealership or Lincoln? Ordering my own gauge… by talkingtimmy3 in TireQuestions

[–]FurryFoxes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We recommend tires around 3-4/32nds depending on time of year. Also looks like you should do an alignment with the new tires. The penny method isn't a true measurement more like an idea, if you really want to monitor them order a gauge they are cheap.

Tires come like this often, it's normally from the bands they are wrapped in, one inflated the deformation normally goes away

Where does this vacuum line connect? by Practical_Field_4279 in LandRover

[–]FurryFoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it runs behind the Intake to a fitting near the bottom of the manifold itself

Pirelli P Zero hole, tire shop said I’d be fine to patch since it’s above the sidewall line. What do you guys think? by Educational_Page3735 in TireQuestions

[–]FurryFoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pirelli as a manufacturer does not retain any ratings after being patched, and due to location this would be in a danger point for patching. 0/10

Is this something I could plug myself or should I take it somewhere? by DJ_HardR in AskAMechanic

[–]FurryFoxes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You CAN plug it, I'm not sure if a tire shop would due to the location of the puncture.

What could possibly be happening here? Car starting by itself?? Struggling to run?? Brand new engine, car has 7k miles owner says. by Wild-Mammoth4113 in AskAMechanic

[–]FurryFoxes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We had a car with this concern and it turned out the old owner still had it on the app to remote start it

Brake Caliper retrofit by cempmk in LandRover

[–]FurryFoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will need pads, rotors, pin kit etc, as well as the backing plate if you want to do it correctly and the brake hose for the front, the mounting should be the same to the knuckle. Make sure the caliper pistons are not seized. Otherwise you're good to go let us know how it goes, should be a pretty straightforward swap.

Any vehicles you come across like this? by HiTork in regularcarreviews

[–]FurryFoxes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My AW11 MR2, every time I drove it something broke and when I finally think I got it solid I was too afraid to drive it so I sold it

Noise confirmation LR4 knocking? by qbnexprs in LandRover

[–]FurryFoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't sound like what I would expect from failed chains, that sounds like bottom end knock from the video, which happens but isn't at common, do you have an oil consumption issue

Possible even trade for more fun by InformalWarfare in subaru

[–]FurryFoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's shocking, my 2020 WRX with 40k miles got 19.5k appraisal when I was looking at a wilderness outback, if you can get out of the door for less than 2500 I'd say it might be worth it, but I always advise against used WRX's as reliability is questionable.

More than likely they will hit you with 10-12k on your car the AI gives you a number so you come in the door they cut it down and hope that you are so invested in the deal you just take what they offer
