Failed Engine Discovery 4 Body-Off / S5-Ep13

[@petergardner6756]

Christian is the most knowledgable Landrover mechanic I have ever seen, he and Vera also have a great sense of humour. I really enjoy their videos.

[@theyorkshirediyguy]

Vera is the most knowledgeable wife I’ve ever seen 😆

[@daveawhittle]

He’s up there on his Disco knowledge for sure he’s no Tom Lenthall though

[@SpicyPumpkin99]

Bloody brilliant…cracked up when you said it’s like the bedroom…”only in and out”.

[@RobmanSP]

I was just looking for that comment ahah

[@darrenhaywood9260]

It’s just it and out, like in the bedroom 😂. Happy Easter guys 👍

[@bushtuker]

OMG Vera is the best mechanic assistant , so organised .

[@qre268Zrtb]

German attention to detail, with added bonus of lovely humour. Regards from Perth, Western Australia.

Saving broken Discoverys and creating more content, win:win

[@1chish]

Aah. A Scania logo .....

[@TheGalifrey]

@@1chish Yes, I was the proud owner of a Scania Van Hool 40 foot coach.

[@1chish]

@@TheGalifrey before I retired I was a Scania Master tech. at a Scania truck main dealer in the UK. We didn't handle coaches but did do local busses. Superb engineering.

[@TheGalifrey]

@@1chish Yeah Scania are superb

[@DustinDemonic]

This is my favorite channel on KZbin and actually look forward to Sunday mornings

[@guyemmott4009]

Exactly 💯% Mine too 😃

[@srdjan361306]

Same too

[@adrianrobertson1478]

I love that Vera uses really old English idioms like "it's raining cats and dogs!" Where did you learn your English, Vera? Oh, yes - another first class presentation, V&C!

[@D0zer122]

I can’t help but have the literal image of cats and dogs falling from the sky.

[@ThomasFromHome]

This is how it is teached in good old Germany. I wouldn't know any other term for it either.

[@JimmyTheRake]

@@ThomasFromHome We also say "It's raining stair rods"!

[@fw1421]

Christian has my sympathy concerning his back. I had back surgery in 1997 and my back has never been 100% since. It makes me very gun shy to work on my car. I don’t have the luxury of a car lift at my house.

[@fedgoe]

People have this wierd idea that German people have no sense of humour and that are very cold, I´m glad that you guys are living proof that Germans are super nice people, and have and excellent sense of humor and know how to manage sarcasm , and ofcourse the expertise that you have is just amazing, greetings

[@barrieneill410]

I can’t wait to see what horrors you discover from the previous rebuild.

[@Doesnotcare12]

I would buy any of these off of you with pride. Amazing mechanical skills,great couple, and family. As a time served manual machinist myself, I'm jealous of your workshop and appreciate your machine skills. Thank you two for these past 3 years since I discovered you while nearly buying a disco 3 or 4. I look forward to seeing you every Sunday so I can disappear from this world for a while. You are a brilliant couple with an amazing sense of humour .💜💜💜

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😊🙏🙋‍♀️

[@Doesnotcare12]

@Vera_and_Christian Vera and Christian, you really don't know what you've done for me . Thank you. I'm Scottish, but was born in Wegberg as an R.A.F brat. I believe you're ex military judging by places you have lived. My UK driving licence says born in West Germany. Thank you, and I feel proud of your sons. I love mountain biking, but I have done minor bmx riding and as part of my work I have done welding fabrication and, to an extent, blacksmithing. Much respect to all of you, especially Vera the obvious glue to your lovely family and organisation.

[@SEANJ-jf4rf]

Love the content, I have to tell you guys I'm a British expat living in Tanzania and here in Dar es Salaam is yet another German guy who is also a Land Rover fanatic using them for his family Safari camps, he always rates Landies over Toyota, reminds me of you. Must be a German thing.

[@fw1421]

This is kind of like M539 Restorations but for Land Rovers. The algorithm just sent me here. A new channel to obsess on.👍🏻

[@luisdiassilva]

Not only Christian is the best Land Rover Technitian but Vera is the best Field Marshal he can count upon. Land Rover should keep you as the main advisory on tehnical matters. Why aren´t these videos posted twice a week? I can hardly wait for them every sunday. Merry easter.

[@vincentcorreia5714]

Love the content!!! My Disco 3 hit 448k KM on a trip to Luderitz in Namibia. Still going strong.

[@RICHIE87622]

In conversation with my father in law this afternoon! And his neighbour victor had (pre text) the v6 jag and while climbing a steep hill in Yorkshire under 2000 rpm snapped the crank shaft!The car had 50k ish miles, just out of warranty they offered a really small kind gesture to put towards repair! The car had a replacement crank shaft in a back street garage with shit all over place and a box of bits in the boot!! 😮 On a happy note I've officially entered my mud life crisis and fit a new GOLD chain to my mtb! Radical!🤙❤👊

[@jrnmller1551]

As always top notch, Love the way Vera calls out the "AMATEURS" happy easter!

[@Motorcyclefan17]

I agree. A clean workspace says a lot about the mechanic! Also you can go to bed at night without a stubbed toe!

[@Oliver_996]

Die unterschiedlichen Rückleuchten würden mich auch wahnsinnig machen…😂 Frohe Ostern euch beiden!

[@tobyhotston]

The news and politics in the UK and the world are so depressing, but this is just the perfect escape, thanks guys!

[@BerlietGBC]

Your policy of clean, photograph and clearly bag work every time, we had a customer turn up with a tracked WW2 vehicle he had dismantled years before , nothing photographed, nothing labelled or bagged properly, mountains of stuff in old shopping bags, broken boxes , it made the restoration challenging to say the least

[@roydibs44]

What a lovely couple,love it,make me happy watching you two together.

[@ChrisHealey-q2i]

You guys should get some sort of recognition from JLR for unrelenting support love and promotion of their problematic at times [and many times] product! Great channel best wishes from the Midlands England.

[@leonb2637]

Even if don't care about videos on working on cars, you got to love the entertaining banter of these 2. That is a huge job and you must have the patience of Job to do it.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅🙏🙋‍♀️

[@ccconlan2670]

Brillant as always😊 great organisation from vera.a great time and so funny😅😅😅

[@7mallorca]

Blog 1 was great he knows what he is doing looking forward to blog2

[@Vera_and_Christian]

👍👌Check out this entire rebuild on our channel. 🙋‍♀️

[@nihallee]

It's strange that on my 2016 LR4, the viscous coupling fan is right handed thread. Anyway, a good friend once told me: You just need to check the fan fins direction, knowing they need to pull air toward the back and that will tell you the direction the fan turns. Since we also know the fan motion is tightening the bolt, you can easily deduce the thread direction for any cars. Great episode, can't wait to watch this new series! Cheers!

[@RickRolling-tc7vb]

I love the snapping and popping noises as you lift the body, it always sounds worse than it is. It looks like such a fun process, and when its done you have so much access everything seems to be easier. Reminds me of the first time I worked on an E-type jaguar, sitting on a front wheel with a biscuit and a cup of tea as I measured the valve clearances. Happy days... Thank you, I'm always entertained, even when swinging between envy and the relief that it's not my problem. Happy Easter, sorry about your weather.

[@campacolasworkshop6042]

20:40 I suspect never in the LR designers nightmares did they think a "divorce" would occur on a domestic house side driveway 😂 Thank you for showing your journey, ex LR3 owner 😊

[@neilwharton720]

I totally agree on the workshop clean idea, untidy workshop means careless work in progress 😎

[@stephendawson9947]

I Love your workshop, and the lift and pit. what more could a man want? ....A Vera ! every good project needs a Vera!

[@LorenGeorgeMcKechnie]

My favorite KZbin couple! Note on the winch cable binding, the “official way” is to insure that the front of the winches vehicle is exactly 90 degrees to the direction of pull, then you can use a shovel handle to push the cable during the pull left or right, as you lean on it like American “Cal Trans workers”, while you watch others do the work. It takes practice, but you can wind the cable on, to perfection. A synthetic cable will also bind if crossed on itself and crush itself if real force is used.

[@tonysmith3182]

Ah yes, my favourite Sunday morning car fixing entertainment, thanks very much to you both…and Happy Easter!

[@ainsleygraves3294]

Practice makes perfect 😂 Sunday in Sydney doesn’t come soon enough to see your videos Keep up the good work good work ❤

[@virgilio1355]

Great video ,can’t wait for next week.

[@hazelltree]

The highlight of the week, look forward to every Sunday morning. we need a weekday boost as we are suffering from LR Time withdrawal. yet again, this wonderful video Thank-you

[@sociocomm724]

Bless you friend from America. This channel is really the most (and nearly only) informative source of anything to do with the LR4/Disco4 and I am so so so grateful, honestly, deeply....life saver, not even joking. With out you guys I think I would be...Scheiße Pech I believe would be the German version of an american phrase, somewhat inappropriate here. Still 🖤❤💛

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👍🙋‍♀️

[@davidfuters7152]

Morning guys , forgot the clocks changed this morning 🫣🫣 The weather is crap here too , I was planning on doing outdoor stuff , but decided to go out for lunch instead 👍 I’m with you with the lights Christian my head couldn’t cope with that , thanks for the face update , I noticed last week I thought Vera had gone over the handlebars on her bike

[@Vera_and_Christian]

I almost ripped out my eye going over the handlebar once. Have a pretty scar from that crash. 😅👍🙋‍♀️

[@davidfuters7152]

Ouch My scars are due to surgery, Iv had 3 on my spine I told the surgeon last time , if I need anymore just fit a zipper 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Martin-u5q]

Es macht Freude, Ihnen bei der Arbeit zuzuschauen.

[@mdshovel]

And here goes another one .. I hope you don't tire of these for a while .. simply the best 😂 ... Happy Easter Christian & Vera

[@Packrat1947]

Nylon wire ties. I worked at the Lorain, Ohio assembly plant for Ford Motor Econolines. Sometimes I would be loaned out to a certain job/operation that needed to be filled. I was called "the chicken-band man", and installed the ties on the firewall. .....So even factories used them. This was in the 1980s and '90s. Ron, the chicken-band man. Just thought you would like to know.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

LOL. Good story! 👍. Thanks. Christian

[@asdmcc2]

I went to work wearing different shoes thirty years ago. Nobody noticed until we had a meeting just before lunch where we were sitting around in a circle and my boss said, 'Are you wearing different shoes?'. I spent my lunch hour driving home and back to change. I'd like to say I can laugh about it now, but I absolutely can't.

[@markmiwurdz2248]

@asdmcc2. You should’ve said to your boss “Glad you noticed. I’ve got another pair just the same at home. I’ll wear them tomorrow”.

[@DiscoGruffalo]

I wear odd shoes every day and have done for years. I gave up trying to conform about 40 years ago.

[@philhealey4443]

Best plan is to fein a foot injury and brave it out.

[@jimmcculloch3786]

You are both just brilliant - happy Easter :)

[@Jabullz]

Glad I found you both, excited I made it in time to start from the begining of this overhaul.

[@lobby1529]

I don't know how difficult it is to roll that chassis into the garage. Maybe a cheap electric winch at the back end wall of the garage would help? Amazing work and thank you for the honesty of not editing the bits you forgot while lifting.

[@DiscoGruffalo]

It's downhill. Even gravity conforms in Germany, it has little choice. 😂

[@Vera_and_Christian]

It's acutally a little bit uphill from the lift into our garage. Just a tiny bit of elbow grease is needed. No need to add a winch or anything like that. 👌🙋‍♀️

[@iainjackson5107]

Happy Easter from the 🇮🇲. Looking forward to this rebuild! Fantastic content as ever.

[@NickAtkins-m8y]

Great video as usual. I'm sure you're thinking about a threaded lifting pad for your outdoor lift to take up the slope in your driveway??

[@guyemmott4009]

Good morning Vera and Christian.. Happy Easter 🥚 🐣 😃

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Happy Easter.

[@pwatom22]

Oooo.. somebody else's failed project. Lots of opportunity to show mistakes. A few great tips already. Thanks !

[@johanndork5364]

Just what I was thinking…someone already took the body off….and then it didn’t run….triple check everything LR…

[@mattpepper1143]

Great to see the method you use to keep organised... A manual will tell you how to do the work.. But the organisation of the parts and bolts will allow you put it back together again.. I have wondered how you keep organised.. great video

[@christopherterry5831]

You pair produce one of the best informative and entertaining vids on KZbin !. It almost encourages me to buy a Landy and lift :). Keep it up. Chris UK

[@LionTheHeart]

Another fun time with Christian and Vera.. as usual got to lie down so my brain can recover

[@TrailBreak-Travel]

Look it’s 0228 US time and I’m at work eagerly awaiting the next video🥴 something to keep us nurses awake. Always a pleasure to watch no matter how many sofa mechanics out there. Keep up the great content👍

[@Vera_and_Christian]

It‘s coming, we are working on it.😅👍🙋‍♀️

[@mikeboone4425]

We thank you 2 for such a great Sunday entertainment and information that will never us because you are the best bless you on this Easter day and good luck this coming week. Just for the hell of it here in San Diego north county raining of and on .

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Oh we can't wait to get back to San Diego. 😃👍🙋‍♀️

[@mikeboone4425]

At the moment we have a lot of flood damage damage rain really claimed a lot of houses . But that what happens when you build homes on hill side and natural drain valleys propple will never learn . @@Vera_and_Christian

[@iandonkin6762]

Happy Easter! Always glad to watch an episode of LR Time and it looks like we’re going to have plenty of content over the next few weeks and months as you sort this one out. But what happens when this one is done? Does it replace the Queen, Vera’s rebuilt Disco 3, or is it perhaps replacement for the B-Class for your eldest? I guess we will have to wait and see. And yes, the rear lights on the Queen definitely need to be the same 🤣

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Oh, if the videos go well, we sure will be able to add just another hopeless Land Rover to our family and not need to sell one. And I really hope it will be a New Defender as they are finally getting to an age where they are not covered by warranty anymore and become to expensive for some to own. 👌🙋‍♀️

[@petermckee1061]

Great video. Many thanks. I'm right with you on workshop tidiness/cleanliness. Cheers, Peter.

[@_marcus_does_]

Fantastic start! Better than an easter egg this morning. No debacles yet!

[@richardparkersmith4810]

You are so organised! Loved the parts in the plastic bags. Reminded me of the opposite approach when Jay Leno said 'I'm a measure once, cut twice sort of guy'.

[@KangoV]

I absolutely love this channel. We were carried home by the RAC last week due to a blown apart CV joint. Wow, what a noise!

Hi Christian and Vera, thanks for a fantastic programme, every petrolhead should have a Vera. I have 2008 Freelander 3.2 i6 which I have had for sixteen years, never missed a beat and a great vehicle. I think you would be redundant if you bought one of these.

It’s interesting that you also know that it always gets colder at Easter when we get a holiday. It never fails. All the best from England and for looking after that poor little Land Rover .Just want to add that i do recall an Easter in the eighties when it was as hot as a hot summer day.
