DIY Suspension Fix of Our 300,000 KM Land Rover Discovery 3

[@dingleydell3250]

Vera’s commentary is an essential part of the videos especially when she corrects Christian’s engineering assumptions great videos both of you love the content

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅🙏🙋‍♀️Vera

[@PietroH53]

Sorry, I'm back again to say that NO ONE on KZbin does these instructional/how-to videos with the clarity and description that you two do. Absolutely brilliant.

[@markharcourt2214]

Agreed, makes me wish I bought a Discovery now. I 'll even say this....." if you are thinking of purchasing a Land Rover Discovery/Range Rover, and you don't know about this LR Time You Tube Channel.......Don't buy one, you'll go broke visiting a Land Rover stealership

[@norb0254]

And not in his native tongue

[@KyleCunningham-jk9bq]

Love your videos, a great Sunday tradition that is very informative and entertaining. I am a helicopter guy and we called the feature you asked about ‘mast tilt’ on multiple models. Longitudinal or forward tilt to help the helicopter have a more natural attitude in forward flight, which will be the majority of operation and where instrument flight by the pilots is conducted. Lateral tilt helps balance forces in a hover where the tail rotor thrust is used to counter the torque force of driving the main rotor.

[@johnparker3065]

Whether in air or water the asymmetrical thrust from a rotating propeller or a heleo blade is called “P” factor. Some aircraft will have the engine mounted 5 degrees from normal to the firewall in an attempt to approach symmetrical thrust. Great videos! From Dave’s neighborhood.

[@globalcitizen7811]

Christian’s commentary is hilarious with a good sense of humour

[@eugenmaxim7643]

😂 the bmw guy from Frankfurt m539 probably. Has to be right

[@nigglenoo]

To be fair, his “trouble and strife” is also absolutely hilarious 🤣

[@nigglenoo]

For a total contrast, check out the lovable Hubnut and his teeny but adorable better half 🙂

[@oncall3570]

A good husband cannot buy his wife better jewellery than such beautifully crafted green control arms with red and blue highlights! Definitely no better excuse for a day in the kitchen, and on the hoist! Great job C, Vera will be so happy about this one!

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👍🙋‍♀️

[@julianpalmer4674]

Christian must be a national treasure, a German with a sense of humour 👌

[@gdavie80]

Vera’s comments are essential the channel wouldn’t be the same without them.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅🙏🙋‍♀️

[@richardgraham7672]

370k on mine and still going strong. Just rebuilt the front diff which was noisy for over 100k. Bought it with 140k in 2012 and have had the usual things like oil cooler, suspension compressor, alternator and oil pump (precautionary), multiple LCA hydro-bushes, and it needs a new torque converter, but nothing major and it has never stranded me or been flatbedded in my ownership. I firmly believe Range Rovers are the best touring vehicle that can be had. Nothing has the same mix of comfort, performance and style that can still take on a gnarly bush track on road tires. They're unbelievable cars.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

That is awesome👍👌💪🙋‍♀️Vera

[@iandonkin6762]

Another Sunday morning and another video from Christian and Vera. Total respect for working through winter outside, too!

[@Land_Raver]

I know some of the Toyota drivers are jealous of how easy those upper control arm bolts came out. Vera is a trooper for helping you out in the cold.

[@Krotte96]

I've no interest in owning or driving any sort of LR but I wouldn't miss one second of your excellent videos. The best automotive channel on YT by far, including "that BMW guy in Frankfurt"😁

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅🙏🙋‍♀️

[@richardporter6201]

Totally agree afraid of LR but love the videos.

[@NiallFC]

So True, LR Time and BMW 539 F Furt. 😂.

[@ericlello2135]

Thanks Vera and Christian , you always make the videos entertaining, and although it seems effortless, for certain you put a lot of effort into our entertainment , added advantage , ideas ect for DIYR’S a certain bonus .

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅🙏🙋‍♀️

[@1chish]

Every biker's wife will tell you kitchen floors are there for engines to be disassembled, fridges are there for cooling bearings and ovens are there for curing paint and heating bushings for bearings to go in easier. Anything else is a bonus. Like cooked food.

[@Wilbargosh]

Right hand rule! Centrifugal motion creates a rotation perpendicular to the direction of travel. Helicopters need to compensate for it. Motorbikes stay upright because of it…..

[@michaelstanley3961]

My LR3 needed nearly very exposed bolt and fixing cut off, thanks to snow and salt, of the highlands, but although a pain your videos help me keep the faith in my weekly ongoing rebuild....just love your channel....

[@mdshovel]

Sunday with C&V .. a sprinkling of OMGs and always a joy .. even my wife enjoyed the Spanish trip video

[@SimonJones49]

I am not mechanically minded and found your channel last week when you visited my home country, but I love the videos, thank you. I have been going through old ones and this arrived today and I watched it all. Thank you for sharing.

[@Okierover]

I would have NEVER thought to use JB Weld there. You two are the cutest. My portable charger was expensive and sucks too.

[@leaulife569]

Gotta love the Germanic attention to detail!😃

[@patriot4223]

Nice video and finishing the control arms. Wheel alignment is such a pain because every adjustment affects each other adjustment. I have exactly the same camber tool and I never haven't got the same value twice a row. Ever, it always wanders. Calibration process of the tool is too sensitive and it can`t be secured. Thanks for the video. They allways are so veracious.

[@iantribe1166]

Good morning Christian and Vera a great video this morning thank you for all the time and effort you put into these videos ❤

[@AllenManor]

Beautiful kitchen! And I have that exact toolbox, I inherited it from my Dad when he passed away...

[@davidsicca2352]

I'm an aviation guy too, and BE SURE if you like fixing Land Rovers and it is already a complicated stuff, be sure fixing helicopters are much more fun and complications too!!

[@jonmark1920]

Christian, i love the video's you both make......But your a lucky man to have Vera, she is fun to watch and a clever lady 😁

[@dB_944]

You guys are like Mary Poppins: “practically perfect in every way.” 😊

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅🙋‍♀️

[@Ben-in6qh]

Ive had the exact same noco for 4 years and it's been fantastic, ring them up and they will send you a replacement, customer support is very good 👍

[@QuickSplashVideo-rm2kh]

I haven't used mine yet, but it certainly has been holding a charge.

[@PhilRiley-v9n]

I have that Noco as well - it has proved very reliable for starting with a flat main battery

[@Mikie1959]

Christian this is why i Love watching your videos you are very meticulous when it comes to your Vehicles I know from watching your Videos you take extremely good care of all of your SUV's and whatever you have and that is very Admirable for someone to do this people in the US do not do this maybe a few but not everybody Most wont take the time to do repairs or even regular maintenance on the cars or SUVs they have , III have learned a lot watching how you do repairs and maintenance on cars and SUVs.

[@LorenzoCase]

My previous post still stands, I definitely want to be like you two when I grow up 😅 keep up the great work 😊

[@neilyeomans9805]

I know when you’re concentrating it’s hard to have someone nattering in the background but Vera is so sweet and really helps. Think for new merchandise t shirts picture of a broken Land Rover with Vera with the slogan “oh my god”

[@richardhasler6718]

Lovely video and beautiful editing, thank you as always!

[@tonycosta3302]

I think this channel is on my Sunday morning routine right after Mustie1, I think the banter between Vera and Christian makes these videos much more enjoyable than just a repair video. And I don’t have an actual need for watching as we have two Japanese cars that never break down. Maybe it’s my fix for not having things of my own to repair.

[@richedwards-v2u]

Great entertainment with a little mechanical work thrown in . Thank you .

[@olivers.6420]

Ihr 2 seid einfach der Hammer!! Ich wuensch euch noch ein gesundes neuers Jahr. Ich hoff ihr hattet viel Spass in Spanien!!

[@Vera_and_Christian]

🤗🙏Frohes Neues dir auch. Das Spanien Video haben wir letzte Woche veröffentlicht.👍🙋‍♀️Vera

[@olivers.6420]

@@Vera_and_Christian Hahaha Ich bin der neue 🤣

[@TheDaf95xf]

Good evening Vera & Christian 😊 Already 12 days into the new year and we’re already having fantastic videos with some of the best content on KZbin with the humour ever 🤣 Keep it up 👍🏻Thanks Stevie xx

[@Vera_and_Christian]

🤗🙋‍♀️

[@jrnmller1551]

Top notch as usual, thanks to you both, Kristian I am not a helicopter specialist, but on small single engined aircraft, the engine is offset to compensate for the same, 3/4 inch/19mm longitudal and 1/4-1/2 6-12mm downwards on a Vans aircraft, by putting shims under the engine mount, the propeller is pushing on one side off the rudder, and you compensate by offsetting the centerline off the engine!!!!

[@axellludvic3490]

Does this also compensate for the moment caused by gyration?

[@AJB1]

I watched a video about that on KZbin once (a Brazilian video, as I'm learning Portuguese too!) - Christian is so right about learning random things from random videos being important! I'm trying to remember why it's offset. Was it the torque reaction from the engine (single engine planes), meaning one wing needed more lift that the other, and that meant you needed a rudder correction? And putting the engine at an angle compensates the drag difference from the wings without needing rudder?

[@CharlesTimothy-en7to]

Hi Christian and Vera,another enjoyable Sunday morning. The only downside is that I have to wait another 7 days for the next video. Take care and stay safe.

[@equaliser2265]

All >I watch is your Videos C&V the best on the tube, thanks for all your hard work.

[@urugvajchernamazyj6240]

46:32 I had this slap on a one year old vw tiguan and on a 16 year old audi. I think they use a too thin metal assembly for the wipers. Very annoying. Thank you for you efforts creating content.

[@Mr_Springy]

Christian I recognise the struggle to get the wheels on, as a LR owner myself. I made a tool that screws on one of the wheel studs that is the same diameter as the hole on the wheel. (Old wheel nut and some tube welded to it and the nut then ground to the correct diameter) This centres the wheel on one stud and makes it easy to fit the wheel nuts. You can buy these tools but a man of your calibre can knock one up on his lathe in no time! Good work as always 👍🏻

[@anthonyreed2228]

I believe when westlands developed the Chinook that it initially flew at an angle tilted backward during testing. The rear rotor is raised to encourage level flight. Not sure if that’s true but was a story I was told about 45 years ago by my father.

[@johnmoruzzi7236]

They modified it from the original Boeing design because the RAF and British Army fly on the left not the right…..

[@CraigFrench-ry2gz]

Great video. Thank you both. Really enjoyed your trip. Now looking forward to Prince Charming’s new engine install.

[@thomaskeane429]

Well once again thanks VERA AND CHRISTIAN, great you have a Dipstick, this is what im missing, it's a computer reading i have. Wonderful as always your the best, keep it up, regards Thomas.

[@eddieMurphy11111]

have a great time in Spain, thanks for the video

[@chrisharvey6845]

Great video, thanks again, I must say that I have had my NOCO GB70 for several years now and I keep it in my DISCOVERY 3 2006 TDV6 HSE model, and when have left it for some months parked up because we were away on holidays, my NOCO GB70 as ALWAYS started it, I have had to use the boost button some times in winter, but it ALWAYS starts my Diesel Discovery. If I were you I would get in touch with NOCO because I believe that you have got a faulty unit. Please keep up with all of your GREAT work, it makes my Sunday morning, if I don’t see one of your GREAT videos my week dos not start right. Meany thanks again, regards Chris.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

I also thought that it may be a faulty unit. We try to get in touch with them. It was not cheap after all. Christian

[@RoverLanding-Adventures]

It looks like I've got the same Noco as the one in your video, and mine has worked very well and saved me several times. I've used it on the Jaguars and Land Rovers (newer and older) without issue. It's always held a charge for extended periods, too.

[@johnmoody2365]

a great start to Sunday!! ...now I want to learn all about your furnace room...

[@kumbirayinyabereka5190]

Wow. Another excellent video from you guys. See you next Sunday. 🙏

My two favorite car channels. My respects to all !

[@AW-Services]

At least English speaking Germans realise that a soldering iron has an L in it. Christian, be careful with the generic Amazon 12v accessory / cigarette lighter sockets as I've used many and the positive live centre pins can fail and break through the plastic. I've hot glued the rear of new ones to mitigate the weak spot. Another brilliant & enjoyable video Non UK landrover owner 🇬🇧👏

[@MrXyzasdf]

Indeed, for permanent or semi-permanent, consider using XT60 connectors.

[@andrewmcdonald9279]

Absolutely love all your videos I’ve just got my first lr4 2016 model and I’m so happy with it and using your videos to learn more about them have been a great help. Upto now I’ve had no problems with it just hope it stays that way. Thank you once again for the great content in your videos.

What a great Land Rover Vera has got , well equipped for some great adventures, I enjoyed your trip last week seeing how capable your vehicle is under that terrain 👍

Yes Christian it is true about the helicopter mast leaning a few degrees. It does vary from machine to machine but you are correct. Keep up the great work 😀

[@virgilio1355]

Once again great video. Look forward to Sunday mornings and your videos: .

[@darrenjones6478]

Another brilliant video. Hope your Christmas dinner didn’t taste of paint 😜These landrovers (when properly maintained) are very impressive on and off road. Looking forward to the ‘Posh Prince’ going on the lift.

[@wookiewookster1214]

Great start to a Sunday, excellent video again, I would to own any Discovery, but in the UK there’s no guarantee it will be on the drive when you wake up in the morning, thanks for the time and effort you make to produce the videos🙏

[@GrevilleRyan]

Getting my weekly fix of LR Time. Well back in the Philippines and I just enjoy watch Vera and Christian, always make me chuckle and you both are a great team. Every video is both entertaining and informative. Thank you so very much Vera and Christian

[@michaeldallimore8590]

I agree with Christioan. Place it in Park first and save wear on the motor. If that stops working you have a world of pain! BTW I call it a soldering Iron the same as you. Clamp on current meters are very useful. 15 L/100km is what I get from my D4 towing my 3 tonne caravan at 90kph so that is pretty good for a D4 doing 150kph! The rules on windscreen repais in Germany seem to be similar to Australia. I have had three new windscreens in the last 3 years and now I also supply all new clips because the windscreen people just use the old ones or some Chinese copies that never work. Thanks for another informative video.

[@jfr55man]

its funny how relatable it is when you recount watching some obscure helicopter engineering video and its as though your just talking about my current youtube suggested videos. also, don't forget to put an l322 on your channel.... they make for good views.

[@mikrok2]

Happy new year,lucky,very nice gift you take...ayrton senna ,simply the best...awesome video greetings from Greece....

Another great video. Note: before the halfway point, the audio level was suddenly much lower. At 29:13 it goes up again, and later down, and then up again :)

42:55 No problem! 2.8 auto hilux (the auto is less efficient then a manual according to Toyota) that weighs in around 2.8 - 3.000kg the fuel consumption is around 8.8 - 9.5. Winter time (Scandinavia) is 10L. The best I got from 150 000 km (without a single fault except a slight leak from a intercooler pipe that was changed during a service) was 7.6 in France but that is below 100 km/h.

Vera, Your comments help make LR Time.. LR Time. Christian You could have asked Vera what color she wanted her Upper Control Arms ! If it was me, they would have been Metallic Purple! In Australia, in my State we also cannot have any marks or chips infront of the driver. So it does pay to have Windscreen Insurance as a Windscreen for my Ford Territory would most likely make my bank account cry. Loved the Spain video and cannot wait For Prince Charming Video ! Keep up the Amazing work !

[@gazzafloss]

Christian and Vera you are very energetic and practical folks, you just get in and get the jobs done. I think anybody would really be very fortunate to be the next owner of any car you've owned, it would always be in nice condition. Christian don't be too sure that a Toyota 4x4 couldn't get better than 9L/100klm. My 2.8 litre Fortuner, about same weight and size as a D3 easily gives 8L/100klm on a trip. But I take your point, the V8 Toyota "What cruiser" can chew through up to 25L/100klm towing a big Caravan.

[@darrelldavison3876]
