Great video. Represents a lot of us RR owners, working on driveway, home made tools etc to get a job done. Good to see td6 content, same car as mine, not the fastest but good solid engines.

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Thanks Richard , it’s part of the experience isn’t it . Bring great pleasure working on your own car . No they’re not , but quick enough for what they are . Totally agree , a brilliant engine 👍

You persistence paid off. Hustling is not easy. 👊

[@DrivewayHustlers]

There’s always a way around 👌

[@jamescaulfield2177]

Absolutely fantastic mate . Glad ive come across your vids . Probably doing a better job than the main garages . Obviously taking time getting there in the end hats off to you

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Welcome 👍 knew it would be a ballache of a job 🤣

[@Rovercoupe.]

Hi.. been there and done that and so much more..mines 05' and was well maintained beforehand and i haven't stopped replacing just about everything, they get to an age where they start to crumble and you have to be ontop of every bit of maintenance..but the bell@nd who designed that early type compressor adjuster shouldn't be allowed to design cardboard boxes let alone cars..terrible design, and it was deleted for a stretch belt on later td6s..keep vids coming.

[@DrivewayHustlers]

I know , what a pain of a job it was to do . I agree , not having the right tools was half the battle 🤣 cheers Paul 👍

[@joblogs542]

​@@DrivewayHustlers do you want to do mine lad

[@mrc7157]

Got a squeel on my l322 from I think aircon side, need to get under for the tray off to investigate, no access but snowing so will have to wait, the great welsh weather lol

[@matroberts9390]

Fair play mate. Had the same issue with my TD6. Wish I had seen this back then. Keep up the great content

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Cheers mate 👍

[@raymondpedlow6580]

I removed the viscous fan and the cover on my TD6 about 3 years ago never had any problems with overheating. It does give back a little power to the engine not having to turn the fan. Gives more room to work on other things as well.

[@DrivewayHustlers]

I found there was hardly any room to get that fan off . The rest of it was straight forward

Another top imformative video for all us RR L322 lovers

Cheers Nolan 👍

[@colincleary8669]

Great video and improvisation with the spanners hope she doesn't give you any more problems but it's a range rover so never say never keep the videos coming 👍

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Thanks Colin , I’ve never got the right tools . Just have to make do with what I’ve got 🤣 Let’s hope not 🤞

[@colincleary8669]

@@DrivewayHustlers I've always fancied an l322 diesel Westminster but all the reliability stories scare me what's your opinion and advice on getting one ? Thanks

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Your right , there’s a lot of scaremongering when it comes to range rovers . Doesn’t matter what car you buy , they all break .. just some more than others . Depending on what you intend to use it for , if it’s going to be your daily driver then I’d say go for the diesel . It all comes down to the individuals budget and preferences ,how much you want to spend .. and are prepared to if something drastic goes wrong . Try and find one with a solid history & Get all the oil & fluid’s changed , prevention is better than cure 👍 However do consider a petrol if your only planning on using it as a 2nd car . Hope that’s helps , good luck and hope you find a good one 🤞

[@basingstokedave4292]

what a great video mate sure this will help lots of people .. cheers

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Cheers Dave , that’s the intention 👍

[@mints4us]

Just come across your vids, loving them .... your lucky you've got a flat drive though !!!

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Thankyou 👍 It does come in handy 🤞🤣

[@trainpart4u]

my 54 plate RR 4.4 damn near broke my bank, my heart and my marriage back in 2015 as it drained mega money from us and caused so many arguements. I had an ex-landrover mechanic friend that like you that worked on his drive and as he was my fixer it spent more time with him in the four years i had it than it did with us, so many things constantly went wrong including the same probs you are having, despite having the alternator rebuilt and fitting a new bosch battery, the flat battery problem never went away. Sadly in the end my money (and my wifes patients) ran out and i had to sell it for spares or repair. Loved the car but hated the never ending repair bills and regular tow home jobs, damn shame. good luck to you.

[@DrivewayHustlers]

This is the problem with them , they can certainly swallow the cash .. and a lot of it !! I think it was a bad earth on mine , hence the battery drain . Not had any problems with it recently 🤞 cheers 👍

[@bertjeharen6893]

Gast ik vind dit echt knap van jou ...heb nu hetzelfde probleem ...ik durf er zelf echt niet aan te beginnen....had auto gisteren verkocht...vandaag klapt de riem de achterste nog wel ..kan wel janken😢

[@samhayes8374]

so how do you move the bottom tensioner without removing it ?im at that point now , thought it might be like the top one where you just leaver it over with a socket on the nut , tryed that but doesnt seem to be any movement

Yet again mate another spot on video mate lovely jubilee buddie

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Cheers Andy , glad you enjoyed 👍

[@andybenfield79]

Love your videos. Swear away my friend. Just wish you had the TdV8 engine. I’ve got a new alternator and pulleys to go on my RRS. 👌

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Cheers . I nearly did didn’t i 🤣 good luck on that one , you tackling it yourself I take it ?

[@andybenfield79]

@@DrivewayHustlers no my mates are doing it for me at a cheaper rate. I’m old school mechanic from the 70s, so I have a keen interest. Unfortunately copd stops me from doing many jobs. I would rather do my own work. 👍

[@DrivewayHustlers]

That’s good then , at least you’ll know it’s been done correctly 👍 sorry to hear that buddy , just do as much as you can 👍

[@ArkadiuszKubiak]

good job mate, I've came across the same issue last month on my RR td6. greeting from Poland✌

[@DrivewayHustlers]

cheers buddy 👍 how did you get on with yours ?

[@ArkadiuszKubiak]

@@DrivewayHustlers I left in local garage to be fixed. I was thinking to do it myself - unfortunately I dont have all the tools and knowledge (thermostat was repleced as well in same time-all at once). Hope to drive with no issue for the next few months.

[@JustinD93]

That looked like a right ball ache to do mate

[@kevint7851]

👌👌👌👍……….We’ll done lad. Good effort on yr part.

[@DrivewayHustlers]

I got there in the end 🤣

[@thejoker7323]

I’ll tell you who designed it, overpaid Design Engineers that had barely any experience using a spanner or socket set; and were told to just make sure everything would fit in the engine bay without any consideration for how the parts could be accessed afterwards. How do I know this, because I worked with some after their contracts had ended.

[@DrivewayHustlers]

It was a nightmare of a job , just had no access to that fan . Even with the correct spanner , still don’t have a clue how you would get it off 🤣

[@bertjeharen6893]

Respect

[@philipsoanes5340]

Happened on my 4.4 RR, belt £27.00 & about £1200 to fit it, drain down, pretty much front end off rad out too 😳

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Ouchh , where did you take it to ?

[@dickybird9613]

i hear on the V8 you have to take the body of to change the alternator and end upm with a massive bill .

[@DrivewayHustlers]

On what engine is that ? 🤔

[@90sDiesel]

Not on the 3.6 v8 diesel they are tricky you can just access the bottom bolt from behind the drivers wheel arch if my memory serves me 👍🏻

[@nateryan7041]

ha dto do the same job myself and its bolox of a job but remove the egr systema dn blank it off and it will run better and makea few other jobs easier to do !!

Check your alternator hasn't sesed up I used to work for clwyd agr I've got a much better job now its brilliant good luck with your business

The alternator was fine , checked and everything was moving freely. Thanks Eifion 👍

[@curtisj2165]

You should have realised that a failed alternator wouldn't affect the power steering

[@DrivewayHustlers]

You over look thing sometimes , get to the problem in the end 🤣

[@tunnel7]

Well done m8 but your Knuckles look well shot Radiator rash that is why they make them so tight in area's like that no need for it I mean its not an easy job for so called skilled main dealer techs.

[@DrivewayHustlers]

Yeah there’s just no room to do anything . Got there in the end 👌
