Well thanks to both of you guys for continuing to be so willing to help out on both sites. I don't go on .net very often anymore, but when I do, I see your posts all over.

I know some tire shops zing the lug nuts on with an impact and then check them with a torque wrench. They will probably be way over torqued this way.
There are some nuts where a good impact wrench is invaluable. Like the wheel hub nuts for example.

Sorry, hit reply before I finished typing.
My experience with rocker gaskets is cork, but I haven't had my V8 Rover ones off yet. I will in the next while though as I need to do HG's on the Disco.

Cork? You're right,

I'm not sure if the rocker cover bolts back off over time, or if the cork gaskets compress, making the bolts looser over time.

I haven't had an issue with mine over heating, but it feels hot, especially in summer. I've been leaving the lid off for that reason, but maybe that's not a good idea?

I looked at mine, but NAS must be different, or they changed between 96 and 97. My brake lines don't run along the axle at all, but come off the frame on each side. Sorry I can't help.

I tried removing the mirror mount from a parts P38 and took a big chip of glass with it. Maybe if you heat it up before removing it?

Do you guys get enough sun in the UK for that?

I think Leolito is far more of an expert than I am, and my experience is from my Disco 2 (which we got for roughly scrap price due to the water leaks and the ensuing electrical problems). I lifted the carpets up and let a fan blow under them for a few days, which seemed to work, but the D2's foam might be different.

My 4.6 Gems quite easily does 160kmh, and it feels good.

Fortunately mine had only been neglected, not bodged.

If that's your biggest one, you're doing a lot better than me! (Sad to say).

Thanks Richard. Probably Prestone around here.

Ok, I need a Dremel, and a nail polish kit then! Various colours for various occasions.

Thanks for all the great info.
Richard, as for the anti-freeze, is there an after market type you would recommend? I've been using the orange stuff from the LR dealer, but there must be a much cheaper good alternative.

Congrats Richard! Maybe I need to follow .net a little more now. I rarely go there theses days, unless I'm a little bored.

I've been using Castrol Edge/Syntech 5W40 per RAVE for our climate here. About $CAD35 for 4 litres at Costco.
Morat, do you add the ZDDP, or does it come blended in the oil? Should we be adding it?

I'm curious about the reason for carrying a Dremel. (It's possible that in the UK it means something different than it does here, to me it's a tiny grinding tool and I can't imagine a use for it on the trail.)

I've seen a number of those shiny round things in mine too, but I don't know where they go either!
