We Have a BIG Problem on my Range Rover...L322 DIY Continues!

[@happychappers8311]

Good effort, guys. Landrovers are a bit like your children. Sometimes their annoying, sometimes they surprise you and sometimes you want to drive them off a cliff. But at the end of the day, you love them and wouldn't change it for the world.

[@MiracleMitch]

Tip: Most phones have a spirit level built in. Android for sure as I have used theirs called Bubble level. If you have an SE the TDV8 badge is usually right aligned with the SE badge, plain VOGUE is usually centred under the VOGUE badge and there is usually an oval LAND ROVER badge on the left for UK models as others have mentioned. L322 models seem to be a favourite across YT. Watching the surprisingly funny LR German couple fix a number of different "Landies" (constantly!).

[@robp8218]

You're not an expert Lucy, most of us aren't I'm guessing, but you're having a go, all the power to you for that 🙃

[@davea6787]

It’s great that you have the guts to give a new challenge a shot, Lucy. The only way to become a good DIYer is to have a red hot go and learn from mistakes. The guys having a moan will be experts on everything. You’ll find them boring for Britain in any front bar. I’m enjoying watching you working things out. Keep it going! Cheers from Dave in South Australia.

[@mikedavies2523]

Ignore the naysayers, Lucy, you know more about cars/RR then many others and you are giving it a go; well done you! BTW, the latching (if you can get them off) are replaceable as well as the straps. Try something like ‘shock unlock’ or ‘Blast’ that freezes and then (hopefully) helps break the seal; good luck

[@LucyOnCars]

Thanks a lot 😊

[@carlb401]

Plusgas will be better for rusty nuts/ bolts as it is a proper releasing spray, also when you use adjustable spanners the movable part should always face towards the direction you are trying to move the nut/ bolt. So in this case trying to undo the nut, the movable would be facing upwards as it helps to self tighten on the nut. Proper spanners or sockets are always the best option with rusty items as they grip better than an adjustable spanner, which can slip.

[@conorhackett5698]

MAPP Gas

[@malcolmheskins3522]

Your videos are great, they are informative and entertaining keep them coming.

[@LucyOnCars]

Thanks, will do!

[@steveeverett8143]

Looks much better, Lucy! Well done.

[@philryan7254]

Hi Lucy nice video as usual, I have to say that you're definitely right about leaving the tail gate to the experts the amount of rust around the bolt's will make it a nightmare to do ,so good luck with it...cheers Phil from Newark

[@robertseaman2254]

It’s good to see you have a go at it and try ,which is the important part and thats what you enjoy so keep trying

[@harrymassey7344]

Great video , made me laugh made me cringe ! ie when you started with the spanner trying to undo the nut the wrong way 🤣🤣🤣love your enthusiasm 👏👏, by the way did you drive up that hill ? 🤦‍♂️

[@garywickens7460]

Great video, your passion for you car comes through every time ❤

[@freshjnew]

Oh and she does her own maintenance what a lovely gal

[@stephenlane9168]

I liked this video Lucy. Love the smaller attention to details things on range rovers content. 👌👏

[@adrianrobertson1478]

Well done, Lucy. Excellent content!

[@LucyOnCars]

Cheers!

[@nolanstaveley-haynes2129]

Reality for me is, yes your not a professional mechanic etc, but videos are decent, presentation is excellent, content is good especially for the RR L322 community and tbf most of us that watch you Lucy are have a go people so the fact your attempting things is great for us viewers, hence we keep returning to watch. You n George just keep the channel growing. All the best for the future

[@ianratcliffe2299]

Lucy, I love the channel and you always do a great job,just ignore the negative comments they’re probably just jealous, you keep what you do,.

[@sparky6996]

I feel for you. Its a beautiful car. I hope its not one of the ones stung by the VED thing and you get many happy times with it

[@simonnorcliffe5877]

Looks great 😊 Lucy , job well done 😊

[@tripplecam1]

Hello Lucy, your rear boot tie looks the same as mine did. You can use the long extention if you pull the rubber boot seal towards you it will come away from the car and give you room. Be very careful as these bolts can fail, so use lots of penetrent and small backwards and forwards movements. Good luck and keep going with your projects.

[@adamrashbrook3359]

Hi Lucy I have the same car in Santorini black and my boot strap snapped I removed the soft close arm and cut the nipple off of and got an impact gun with a 13 mm socket and it came straight off

[@bryanquinn1122]

Keep going Lucy and keep old Range Rovers going 💪

[@deaks25]

I subscribe the idea that a true car enthusiast is someone who enjoys everyone's passion a for all cars. They can be a rusty sh*tbox, or a pristine super car, a hot hatch, sports car or luxury SUV, heck, if someone is passionate and wants to enthuse about it, then a true car enthusiast will be there to share that passion. Any "you can't be a proper petrol head because 'X'" is just snobbery and not what a petrol-head should be.

[@LucyOnCars]

Agreed!

[@andrewmacdonald4510]

Well done Lucy!

[@paulmoore6345]

A body shop will be able to deal with the rust issue and advise. No reflection on your ability. But they have the tools and expertise etc

[@LucyOnCars]

Agreed!

[@jasonlewry3307]

Strip looks way better…. If it comes off, and those tapes often do, use tiger seal & clamp or tape it in place for a few hours…..It’ll never come off again. Keep the badges off when they fall off though. I debadge everything I’ve ever owned. It’s all litter. Looks better clean.😊 Love the fact you’re not an expert - it makes it watchable & real…….love the journey and sod the haters. Keep up the good work it’s a lovely motor. 😊😊

[@nimedave]

@@jasonlewry3307 That strip is coming off on mine. Unfortunately it sits right where you grab the boot to close it and clearly the standard tape isn’t strong enough. Suspect that Lucy’s will work itself loose over time. I’ll give tiger seal a go when mine falls off.

[@jasonlewry3307]

[@AdHominem888]

The world would be a better place if people just respect one another.

[@KezzaMac]

Lucy on Desks 👍. You guys definitely need a Defender on the channel.

[@EGDYT22]

Given the fact the cable for the bottom of the tailgate is rusted (This happens when you wash the car and dont dry the area properly, fun fun) I assume both the tailgates were also quite badly rusted and were replaced which explains the fresher paint and lack of badges.

[@nimedave]

I debadged my M5s which reduced the number of pillocks wanting a race immediately.

[@LucyOnCars]

Haha!

[@danielheathcote5625]

Worked a dream on my dad’s mk2 gti - he took the rubber boot spoiler and front spoiler bib off as he wanted to replace them with smarter newer items, and took the gti badging off. Looked like a driver with 90 bhp, went like a gti wit( an extra 46 bhp (( was the 16v). He had a lot fewer ends of the bell c having around in the few weeks he ended up nailing around without th3 little badges and body addenda, he almost left it like that. However, neve4 understood de badging a Range Rover - everyone with reasonable hearing will know what it is, especially if it’s a petrol v8 without the visual clues!😊

[@williamhoare7397]

Hi Lucy. Excellent content as always, I find your channel very enjoyable to watch.

[@LucyOnCars]

Thank you so much!

[@TheMcinto65]

I can certainly say Lucy, you have no rear end problems at all 😊

[@LucyOnCars]

Good to know!

[@motoringnation]

I fully respect anyone willing to give something a go. 99% of people won't try to do something themselves. You don't need to be an expert and its more enjoyable watching people like you giving something a go, regardless of how successful you'll be. Keep it up!

[@johnelbro127]

Well done Lucy, at least you have a go. 👍👍👍👍

[@wyatt091]

Well Lucy 9000 people can’t be wrong keep making your entertaining videos they are much appreciated

Lucy ignore the negative comments and messages, I've followed you and your content since the early days and you're tackling bits you can do, 👏

[@LucyOnCars]

Thank you so much!

[@simonnorcliffe5877]

Carry on with what you are doing 😊the videos are very enjoyable as a big car fan myself 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@robertwalker1742]

I would take the wheels to a wheel refurbishment place and get them black chrome. Depending on how the light is , they may look black, then as the light changes they look a chrome colour, my C30 Volvo was done like that and it’s great.

[@yoof01]

Don’t listen to the grumpies Lucy, I love the L322 and may go back to one in the future. Your normal everyday approach is so relatable, I fiddle with stuff and come up against all the same questions and dilemma’s you do so it’s really enjoyable content. Keep it up, and well done George, keeping off all of those noisy leaves 🤣

[@carfella7994]

Smashing rear end

[@trevorlucas5080]

Your rear end in black looks superb.

[@Concorde-AXDN]

Another great video Lucy.

[@nimedave]

It’s very possible that the back has been painted due to tailgate rusting.

[@andrewnewton5893]

Socket be vest option to crack that strap bolt

[@JimmyDean404]

In the US we have a lot of rebadged European/Australian cars. Chevy SS for example I'd consider rebadging with Holden Badges. Buick regal to opel. etc.

[@paulbateman3001]

I like your videos you are trying hard and you are a littel love thanks Lucy have a lovely weekend and keep doing videos

[@aerotus888]

Agree. The rear end is looking great!

[@jonjon738]

LOL

[@jeffro0502]

If it's that rusty next to tailgate strap connection point what's the underside of the L322 look like?

[@keithvers569]

On my Vogue SE the TDV8 badge is not centralised, it is 2/3 of the distance nearer to right hand indicator

[@pauljackson6593]

Your phone has a spirit level app

[@bigrig1301]

Read the comments the video when you got it some one says it was his mates had a crash

[@cactusthomas914]

How's the rear lower sill looking? If it's good, get the ACF50 or POR15 on it quick. That's more concerning than the rear end.

Hello Lucy. Have you ever thought about making an electric RR L322? I don't mean a hybrid, but an electric one! Like Moggy did. Greetings from Russia!

[@solomonkutesa4275]

i hope you dare not say any thing cringe about this car , because its pretty neat 100% well done

[@ianmason3040]

It does look very rusty around the boot strap location point, so better to get some advice - or you'll end up with a bigger problem

[@stephenjordan2175]

Have you tryed plus Gas formula to remove the nut ?

[@mishalchotai4721]

The number of sexual puns in this video is epic 😂lol.

[@M94289]

Can see the rear bumper and the boots are different colour to the side/rest of the car.

[@simonjandrell5897]

good to give that Land Rover some of its stock bling back..

[@duncanpoundcake]

Plus Gas. A proper tool kit and heat for the tailgate.

[@KezzaMac]

Probably just rip those bolts out and weld a plate for the new hardware.

[@QuietMan7755]

Should there not be an Oval Land Rover badge on the rear ?

[@robp8218]

No, they don't have them.

[@interceptor-ss8kb]

I would say good chance the rear tailgate was painted, because it had rust, it would definitely have had rust by that age. I've not come across one without rust bubbles.

[@LucyOnCars]

True!

[@barrettsreviews]

Love my discovery 4 👍

[@jayb2758]

Just remember these vlogs are a “what I doing “ video not a “what you should be doing video”. The majority of us wouldn’t know much better than you, keep it up.

Never thought a video of a soccer mom car could be as entertaining as this one. Kudos to Lucy for making enjoyable content.

[@LucyOnCars]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Mr.eugenus]

11:16 spicy content fellas 😂

[@JohnBaxendale]

It's going to annoy you but... The Vogue is the wrong lettering for this vehicle and there's not enough space between it and the TDV8 badge. The TDV8 should line up with the O of Vogue, but the TDV8 badge should end midway through the U, yours is at the end of the U! :)

[@steburge1]

[@Andris_Briedis]

I have never understood why people on the Internet take other people's comments seriously. It is one thing if a person is identifiable and he has proven his professionalism. For example, Neil deGrasse Tyson. It's completely different to be some "boo2011" who hasn't even wiped his mother's milk from his mouth, or some "JamesSmit80" who still lives in his parents' basement, without a job and has never hammered a single nail into the wall in his life. Don't take them seriously. Tell us what's useful, we'll use it. Everything else is either black/white noise or the nightmares of a sick dog. If only experts did what they do, we still wouldn't even learn how to use a stick. Making mistakes is a learning process. It is not clear to many. And as always. Don't like it? Don't look. But this has not been understood since the times of campfire stories.
