I was actualy getting to like my Landy, but i hate the fact that all the tools needed are oversize / excessive, eg
Gearbox drain plug 32mm, and yes you cant get a socket in it has to be a bleeding spanner, its just a hole for c***t sake, couldnt they have used a 19mm ?, spanner ordered !!!
Gearbox filler, ohh how akward can we make this, i know, bet no one has a 55 Torx in there standard tool kit *@#@%$ idiots, bought from Halfords and an oversize TX set ordered !!!!!!!!!
Drop arm nut, 34mm jeez my socket set only goes to 32mm, Ordered !!!!!!!!
And just for fun and giggles on my landrover with bucket seats, length of seat belt buckle that is tucked down 14" below the edge of the bucket seat, ohh you couldnt have guessed its a floppy strap that sits on the floor, 300mm stalk seat belts getting ordered tomorrow !
Please let me know of any other tools i should be ordering )
And following an oil change for the gearbox with some borrowed tools the syncro on 4th is still non existant, will give it another week to 'self repair' before calling Mathew )
The working heater still puts a smile on my face though and out of the 3 vehicle i have the Landy is first choice (took the Jeep out for a short trip today just to make sure it was still working, felt like I was in a Mini)

If its not rattling its more than likely fallen off !
