    On the evoque the gearbox park release is under the air box and if drive shaft was hanging out I suspect it was manually put in to neutral to assist with recovery. To put into neutral you will need to drop a drill bit or screw in the hole to stop leaver moving back to park!! That’s why the air box is out.

    I bought a Range Rover for less than half price because the gearbox had a fault and the owner was quoted £4000 to fix it!
    I fixed it myself and the part only cost £260. 😊

    Hi guys, the wife did something similar with my Volvo! She was parking the car on full lock then stalled it, the car lurched forwards and the wheel struck a bollard! Caused a fair bit of damage but it was a super low speed impact. The garage tried to charge me stupid money but I managed to repair for around £300 quid in the end! Enjoying the content chaps, keep up the good work. All the best from Fife!

  • @harveybowler7407

    As someone who works for the brand the gearbox release is under the airbox on most of these cars so you have to move them to put in neutral with a dead battery!!

  • @Petegoldsmith
    @Petegoldsmith 17 дней назад +4

    Rob reason airbox removed, it’s from when car would have been originally recovered, under air box is gearlinkage which you have to move to a central position and drop a pin in to hold in neutral for recovery or movement. Great videos please go back to 3 a week all the best to you both

    The emegency park release lever is on the front of the gearbox.
    I often remove the air filter housing to release the gearbox for roadside recovery.
    It's safer than using skids/slippys and takes 2 min to sort.

      It's not the cost of the repair nowadays, it's all the other costs in top, to name a few, hire car, storage of the vehicle whilst waiting for repair, storage of the car whilst waiting for the paint shop, admin..... When you total just those together plus the cost of new parts from landrover (which are on massive backorder) it becomes uneconomical to repair for them.

      Repairs are not so bad, but there is waiting lists in body shops, waiting lists on parts and all that time you’re driving a hire car. Our waiting time was 2 months for bodyshop and hire car was £475 per day. Got written off for 2 scratched doors that I replaced with doors in colour from a breaker car for £300.

    I would say they removed the air box to get to the lever on top of gearbox that allows you to lock into neutral. Might of been stuck in drive or park after being hit. Or recovery driver dint have jump pack etc.

Just a thought if you're running it I'd do a service on the Haldex too, usually due around 40k but no harm in doing it early with the age of the vehicle. Nice one... Happy wife, happy life! 👍

    I am all for "road testing" vehicles before you sell them on, but if you keep them half a year and end up paying 1UKP per mile in writeoff, you could possibly be cheaper off selling it straight away and calling an Uber for the miles traveled. I might be paraphrasing here, but you get the gist I hope. Up to you to figure out if it is totally worth the fun and ease you get from the vehicle or if you want to please the missus with a motor that is slightly less heavy on the writeoff.

    2 days with heat big hammers grease , wd40 ,in the end I hit drive shaft that much it went like a mushroom at the dnd ,
    when you ask about for someone to do it , noone wants to do this wheel bearing job on these lol

    My opinion on driveshaft, I would not buy from J&R driveshaft. I’ve had free steps of dry shacks from them for different vehicles and they do not last five minutes. They built from China and imported very bad quality.
