REBUILDING THE CHEAPEST RANGE ROVER IN THE UK | PT4

I bought the cheapest 2015 range rover vogue l405 in the country. It was cheap for a reason as it had been in a pretty bad accident, leaving the car crash damaged. I decided to buy it to rebuild. Along the way instead of repairing and fixing the old parts ive decided to upgrade the car to an SVO body kit along with facelifting the range rover to look like the 2018 version. But as always i stumble along mechanical and electrical faults on the journey.

Mat, I’ve always loved cars but you gave me the confidence to start modifying my own. I bought a cat-back, non resonated, valved exhaust system for my Audi and my brother helped me install it this weekend!! It sounds so sick 😭😭 thank you for continuing to inspire me!!!

[@adammanley7424]

Upload a video of it?

[@mc9022]

I love to modify my cars. I did that since i was a child. The only thing stops me is money.

[@panchit0z]

@@mc9022 I think next up I’ll do the cold air intake!

[@JAWS_2K]

Definitely need to see an exhaust vid!

[@leec4027]

Fairplay to you mate, by looking at many comments you have inspired many people to start modifications on their own. Started watching your vids 2020, amazing how far you have come in such a short time. You have a talent and its a joy to watch. Keep up the hardwork 💪

[@jtautomotive5925]

So true. I started watching Matt in 2020 also and right now he’s actually my favourite channel. Proper good content, good filming format and stays engaging 👌🏾

Inspired me to rebuild my fn2 type R that needed a new complete braking system (pipes, discs etc) and new rear axle, two months of hard graft and it’s now my daily

[@j11ese]

I fitted those steering buttons to my sport, on the back there is a bridging pin that you can remove to give second settings, might work. Fitting genuine is outrageously expensive.👍

[@nhungoc3570]

Can’t use the paddle shifter

[@AbdulhamidRTE]

@@nhungoc3570 hi did u find a solution for it ?

[@hardc0reloonasimp]

The stock steering buttons look fine to me, no need the change them imo

[@MrGaryGlimmer]

agree. i wouldn't upgrade mine if you paid me £250. they're awful.

[@iamwheeler]

The problem with the stock buttons (at least on my RR) is that they become “sticky” to the touch after some time.

[@iamwheeler]

One thing I want to mention is the fact that you listen to your viewers and go through the comments! You do have a talent and as I said I admire your talent and courage going through such major projects! Keep it up Mat you’ve got alot of people hooked on your channel👍🏼

[@bobman584]

Hi mat, I’ve been around since the Bmw and the TT series, I actually have my own TTS 8J, I’m also now a fully qualified Land Rover technician after going through there apprenticeship programme, been loving watching the videos and seeing both our abilities grow! Any help with any JLR cars give me a shout ☺️❤️

[@danguz01]

I am absolutely amazed at your ability to diagnose and your intuitions regarding automotive technologies issues. You’ve fantastic mechanical aptitudes and let’s not forget your a fearless human being.

[@joecharles4010]

You need a “Y’ piece that connects to the original exhaust and then to the quads for the SVO conversion. Loving this series pal, keep up the good work.

[@verisence]

The Y pieces are in the other box at around 10.18

[@low1tjeh]

Damn Matt, that's why I like to watch you and learn from you! I love that you think back about your actions, learn from it and tell us that it was your own mistake. For me, totally not at your level, but the same story. We all make mistakes and learn from them, it's the whole experience! Thanks again for all your content, love it. Cheers mate

[@tedantic9650]

Thank you so much for these videos. Not only are they entertaining but as someone who has only just discovered their love for cars it's a great help in learning. I don't think I've seen anyone on here more deserving of success!

[@CarChris82]

looking forward to this mate been watching your vids from the start , your vids gave me the kick I needed to start my own channel a year ago and start filming what I'm doing feeling blessed bro 🙌and a big thank you

[@leonmalinowski7062]

Mat loving these videos been hooked in and haven’t missed a video since the start of the Audi S5 build keep it up brother! 🤘🏽🔥

[@fattyshtc]

I love being right referring to the wheel 360 out. Easily done. The tight spot is it's not long enough to go that far and pulls itself in the casing luckily it didn't tear. I'm available most of time should you ever need a X BMW range rover specialist.

[@Amac-uz9hm]

Can I ask a question? I had the usual suspect, the three snapped bolts in the power steering electric motor! I’ve drilled the bolts out and remounted the electric motor with zinc replacements and I think the belt might be ok? Fine teeth so not sure, my problem is on full lock the motor keeps moving and jumps the teeth with a screeching sound so the car doesn’t know where it’s end points are? So my question is does it need plugging in to be reset or is there a easy peazy reset procedure without a computer? If not will a snap-on diagnostic tool do? Thanks in advance if you can help 🤞🏼

[@fattyshtc]

@@Amac-uz9hm have you looked to see it's not going past lock. There's nylon stops on the wishbones on some models and it's causing the car to go beyond lock when they're missing. Was there any play in the shaft. Once a motor has slipped the teeth need replacing as they become rounded.

[@Amac-uz9hm]

@@fattyshtc thanks for the reply, no there is no setup for nylon stops, it’s getting to the end of travel and the motor for assist continues to spin as I could see the pulley spinning as I have removed the blanking plug to see what was happening, does it need programming once it’s fitted with a new rack? And at the moment I don’t want to spend £50 on a new belt and it takes the teeth of because it does needs to know when to stop (programming)

[@fattyshtc]

@@Amac-uz9hm they can be calibrated and land rovers require most things to be calibrated. They learn by driving above 20 and going lock to lock. Not a easy thing to do. Sometimes easier just to have calibrated.

[@dawidwojtkowiak7567]

Beautiful work. I feel inspired by your projects. Even started to look for some cars to buy and repair my self.

[@bulldog333]

Mat, you have given me confidence to do work on my own car. I installed some aftermarket side steps on my 2022 RR Sport. Was a long day but results are amazing. Just air up the car and you can do all the work underneath 👍🏻

[@paulbeecham8313]

Matt that kit is really impressive for the price, your doing a cracking job 👌

[@badrallach4792]

Love this repair/upgrade mate, so interesting to see what fits and what doesn't. Your doing a superb job, I wouldn't know where to start lol. Good find with that clock spring. can't wait for the next installment. Cheers

[@garethcharlton8450]

i love what you're doing to this Range Rover! total respect for the methodical way you work & attention to detail too.

[@jpiazzola]

You're leaning more every day and becoming a master mechanic all on your own, I've really enjoyed watching your development as a technician and as a KZbin producer. You should be proud of your progress and the creativity that carries you on. Keep up the good work.

[@robsawalker]

[@Bacon__SteezBurger]

Love the SUV content so much man 😎 as a Tiguan R owner it’s rare to find good suv/crossover content, and even more rare finding people doing actual good builds/mods to them. Been so hyped on this project and can’t wait to see more 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@timk.537]

Totally like this guy. I really appreciate that it will attempt anything. As a teacher in Canada, I feel like traditional school might have been tough for him, but he found his niche. Dude is solid.

Exactly 😅 thanks mate

[@tuncaycardano9747]

this guy deserve millions of subss!! you seem like a genuine person !! i like that.. greetings from the netherlands . keep up the good work.

[@jvd8698]

Great vid. I suggest a Y pipe for the exhaust otherwise the rear bumper may melt using the single pipe before the double tips

[@dibden99]

Dunno if this has been mentioned, the only downside to removing the exhaust tips bend is in deep water. With the U-bend down it can help prevent water following up the pipes, if your not planning to go swimming its not a problem! Love your work!

YOOH!! I'm loving this series!! Can't wait for the final complete build🙌🙌

Just wanna say that the fact I was screaming " IT WILL BE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE THE CLOCK SPRING" at you from my armchair has a lot more to do with the quality of your video tutorials than my complete lack of mechanical knowledge .

Will look mega when it’s all completed 👌🏻 just need to bring some interior trim to you to wrap 😎👍🏻

[@scottfrancis1765]

watching this and loving it the only issue i can see with what you did to the exhaust is the fact the heat from the gases can melt the plastic it did a tiny bit on my car

Just seeing you rebuild one of my dream cars is amazing.

[@adriant2176]

Brilliant video as always love watching them

[@rhkavli]

I got the same buttons for the steering wheel as you, since the original left pod was half dead. They work fine, on my 2013 SDV8. But honestly I like the originals better. I'll see if I can re-solder or replace the micro switches in them.

[@Josh_0579]

It would be really interesting to see what all the builds cost when you are done with them so idiots like me don't always expect to buy damaged cars and expect to get away with it

[@jackw9920]

That would shatter the illusion he’s saving money with these rebuilds. Several early ones weren’t even sprayed the same colour before they were wrapped.

[@xrocketsinghx]

[@collectablekingdom1984]

Awesome upgrade 👍 keep up the great videos

[@DaveRogers1985]

Loving this build, personally I think the dual exhaust looked better than the quad tips!

[@Mastermoussa]

Yes, they looked way better. Also these quad tips are crooked

[@audiquattro89]

Agreed. Cutting the rear tips of the mufflers aswell, not ideal on a diesel vehicle. Theres a reason for the bend towards the pavement - smokes and gases. Oh well. Nice bodykit overall anyways.

[@r.habich3429]
