Land Rover | A pillar and Cowl replacement, "banish that attack Kazoo" Whistling windscreen solved.

Join me as I replace the front cowl and A-pillars on my Land Rover Discovery 4, LR4. And goes what, the vicious attack Kazoo is permanently banished and the damage done by the glass replacement guy is fixed, oh yes the boss was very very happy with the return to stately onroad serenity.

You named 5 countries that drive on the left (steering wheel on the RH side of the car) Just for info there are 76 counties that drive on the left not just the 5 you mentioned plus 'a couple of outlying islands'

Yeah. The hole has to be patched as per Land Rover and the tab (the one with the thick washer) has to be cut off the trim piece.

Nice work 👏

Thank you! Cheers!

Great job and great diy. Can you please send me the link to the arm puller you used? I’m having trouble removing mine. I used every tool available on Amazon but no luck. They’re baked in 😢

Great video. Where did you buy the replacement panels?

[@wrenchnroverin222]

I ordered them from landrover Paramus. They had the cheapest price out of everywhere I tried. They make sure a difference to the wind noise in the cabin it’s hard to explain but for me well worth the cost.

Land Rover actually made a tsb for these vehicles and there was a revision to cover the holes at top and bottom to keep water from trickling down into the vehicle I believe your was modified u seem to have now undone the modification

[@wrenchnroverin222]

Thank you for the support of the channel and comment. The new A trim pieces that we re-installed had foam gasketing around the locating dowels, both top and bottom in addition to the foam blocks at the bottom. Without these dowels the trim piece can move up and down about 1 cm, hence their requirement for a tight fit. Also of note is the much heavier gaskets provided by the original Land Rover Clips as opposed to the aftermarket ones commonly available. If you could provide the TSB number you're referencing then I'd be happy to post it here for the community.

@@wrenchnroverin222 Javaune might be referring to TSB #LA-501-006. I came across it when trying to research water ingress in my '06 LR3. By the way, great video.. easy to follow along and understand. Thanks for posting. Looking to replace my cowl to see if that helps with the water ingress.
