    What a fantastic relic to find, great to see if breathe life again and I really think it will not be too shabby at all by the time it has had a decent wash, that rattle has to be a pulley or tensioner no way it is engine mechanical running that well, it wants to live!

    @TheAndre8900 Год назад +34

    Such a sad looking rangie. Glad you picked her up. It's a diesel but they are going up in value a bit since more and more ending on the yard. And being a DHSE in Epsom Green/sandstone leather helps. Also, the air compressor is electric don't need to rev it, just let it idling with access mode enabled the lowest setting and give the compressor time build pressure. If all bags are good and height sensors are healthy it should raise.

    • @paulsz6194
      @paulsz6194 Год назад

      The air suspension compressor is also known to fail, which gives you the impression that one air suspension airbag s faulty, but it’s just the air Compressor not having the strength to keep all four bags inflated.

    • @slammerf16
      @slammerf16 Год назад

      Open the tailgate or a door while the engine is idling and the pump is running - that'll give it time to charge the reservoir with the bags empty because EAS is disabled by a door/tailgate/bonnet open signal. A healthy pump should fill it up in about 8 minutes or so from nothing. Shut the door and watch her rise up in 1-2 seconds. Or not :)

    Hi rob and chris. I have had one of these as a rolling project since november last year.
    The rattling noise will most likely be the crank pulley, the air not coming up fast enough will most likely be a weak compressor, check the air intake filter on the compressor and make sure its not blocked, you can screw it off completely to test if you like

  • @66mjtaylor

    As always great video, especially when Chris realises he is recording lol.

That car will clean up lovely and doesn’t look like a lot of rust in it. Here is to looking forward to its first wash 🤞

    Guys, nice video. Few corrections. The bmw m51 engine has an electrockly regulated rotary injection pump. On bmw-s there is no supply pump only an one in the tank which levels the amount of fuel in the tank on both sides. Recently watched a video, a bloke in Ireland has tha same car, and the horrible sound was the crankshaft pulley. It is mad of 2 pieces seperated with a rubber padding to absorbe some vibrations. If it gets old, it seperates and makes this noise. Should be an easy fix. These engines are pretty good, but they are very eensitive to being revd when cold. The head can crack. So be jentle with it. Good luck, it will be an amaising youngtimer!

    I've always been tempted every time one of these is for sale when they come up. I love the shape of a bricky old Range Rover for some reason

    Great video lads. When Chris took Robs phone but held it wrong way, a lot of channels would edit that out but that’s why you are so relatable, it’s real life and real car fixing and selling 👍

    What a great week for content from you both. For me this is the best one yet, it has everything, abandoned car for free, it's a Range Rover, will it run, and as Chris put it, will it stop, I can't wait to see you do a clean up video on it, it looks as though it'll be lovely under all that moss. This one can't fail to make you a healthy Bob or two. Great work! 👍

    I have a 2000 manual version of this with the same engine that I bought for peanuts. Putting an M57N engine and GS6X53DZ 6 speed manual gearbox into it this winter will be starting that project this time next month. Great video.

    Looks like a good find. Nice to see an engine as an engine should be. I'm sure that'll clean up nicely and you'll get it running to perfection. Thanks for another great film

  • @grahamepigney8565
    @grahamepigney8565 Год назад +1

    That M51 is pretty bombproof. As it is a turbo it will be a TDS.
    It was used in 3, 5 and 7 series between 1998 and 2001 in BMWs , Opel Omegas 2.5ds between 1995 and 2001 plus these Range Rovers from 1995 to 2001.
    A relatively simple engine, relaible and torquey.

  • @benfel9403
    @benfel9403 Год назад +1

    That noise is most likely the crank pulley /crank damper on the front of the engine. If you look at the RUclips channel called Sam's Motor and Machine and look at his video entitled I found the cause of the noisy engine I think that will be helpful to you. Great video, these are massively underestimated cars. I have had one since 2001 and still do. Current one is most of the way through a restoration project.
    Have worked on and tinkered with these for years so if there is anything you get stuck on, give me a shout. I'll do what I can to help.

  • @stevedane787
    @stevedane787 Год назад

    I had one of these 15+ years ago (poverty spec - cloth upholstery & manual transmission) on an "N" plate. Loved it to bits. Did have to replace all the suspension air bags and only sold it because I got a Discovery 3 for an absolute steal of a price. Will be watching developments on this one with interest.
    Hope there'snot too much bird poo on it, Bangers & Cash had a Capri on recently where the poo had dried on and was a right pain to get off

  • @colinbarber9324
    @colinbarber9324 Год назад

    Hi Rob, I had that model of car over 20 years ago, loved the car but for one thing.
    The engine would turn over when starting, but wouldn’t fire up, the battery would take a hammering and go on charge every six months.
    Sometimes it would run for a month trouble free. Took it back to Land Rover dealership and got the shrug shoulder and the “we don’t know” response. Never bought a Land Rover since.. 100% Mitsubishi 4 wheel drive cars since then, no grief.

  • @patrickjmorgan
    @patrickjmorgan Год назад +1

    Yes Rob, we so enjoy 'will it start' vids, especially if we like the car in question- and i do love a RR and have had 2 over the years- still got my sport (same as the one you are struggling to get going). Theres a car-valleter of some notoriety in Maidstone has one of those and its always got something wrong with it...He used to do my car and my Wifes..until he tried to sort her out...

  • @Andy-qo6rq
    @Andy-qo6rq Год назад

    When Chris floored it I thought you was going to need a new fence. 👍🏻 that noise is going to be something silly that’s had no oil and stuck. When you floor it the sound goes. That’s a classic great to see it not being scrapped 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  • @ohmegroin

    I'm so jealous!!! Been messing around with the suspension on my P38 for ages and still can't get it to work!!!

  • @1chish
    @1chish Год назад

    That slow speed rattle reminded of my Laguna diesel and on checking these had the same type of front pulley with a two part torsional damper. The two parts held together by bonded rubber located with dogs to prevent outer spinning if rubber becomes detached. If rubber becomes partially detached dogs on inner knock against dogs on outer at idle.
    On the Renaults they just stop gripping and you lose ancillary drives. Like power steering!
