    Is it normal for air con to cycle on and off?

    Hi all, my LC3 air con cycles on and off as the pump starts up and the revs rise and fall in unison. This is most noticeable when everything is set to max cold. I thought it was a fault and had it re-gassed at Kwick Fit - they did it for free because it did not solve the problem but I am...

    Made the move from Landrover Discovery to LC 120 ....

    :icon-biggrin: Well, after many years of Landrover ownership I have decided that I have had enough! You need more money than sense to own a Landrover - granted, they drive well and look good but boy do they bite you in the ar$e with monotonous regularity! They are the only vehicle I know of...

    How to check auto box oil level?

    Hi all, I have just pulled the dipstick on my LC120 2003 auto and it registers just on the "HOT" mark but the engine is cold - ie first thing in the morning. Should I run the engine / select "drive" or do something else to get the correct reading? Or is it overfilled? Thanks in advance.

    Retrofit cruise control?

    Hi, I have just moved over from a Disco 3 to a LC 120 (2003 auto) and I was wondering if I can retro fit the cruise control switch (part number 84632-08021). I did a similar thing on the Disco - simply a matter of buying the switch and plugging it in. Anyone done the same on a 120? A search...

    Should I fit a new radiator - 2003 120,000 miles?

    Hi all, I have been told that there is a common problem with failing radiators which allow coolant into the auto gearbox. Is it a problem with the 120 or was it just the 90's? Mine is a 2003 model with 120,000 miles - just wondering if a new radiator would be a good idea? (no problems at...

    New (to me) Colorado GX 1997 front outer CV rubber boot needs replacement.

    Hi all, I have recently deserted Land Rovers and joined the Landcruiser fraternity. Bought an old Colorado 95 (1997 vintage) and was so impressed with it I have bought a LC120 (2003) as well. Hence my need to sort out a few niggles on the Colorado and get it sold ready for the "new" one...
