Before coming across LR Time, I would never have thought that a Sunday morning highlight would be a coffee whilst watching a German engineer with his lovely smiley wife, forensically and precisely disassemble and rebuild a British car... Fun and fascinating to watch each week, thanks.
Just came across your channel! I think this is one of the greatest DIY channels on youtube. Nice germans, showing how it’s possible to live with these great but whimsical cars! Love it! Unfortunately you bought the wrong Mercedes, You should have gotten a V6 diesel OM642, as it is cheap now and compares to the TDV6. Or ever the Audi V6 that is even worse! Keep up the good work! Cheers!
I spent 2 years doing at least 2 autobox oil changes a week on an inferior 4x4 brand. Hot red shower every time as there was no drain. Add a rear diff oil change also with no drain.
Christian......don't forget to loosen off your filler plug 1st before removing the drain plug. Minutes later...Vera....did you loosen the filler plug 1st ??? Christian .....no 😂😂😂😂 Vera is clearly the brains in this operation. ❤❤
Must give you a nice warm feeling knowing that all your fluids are changed, especially up your arm! What a nice chap Edgar is, such a kind gesture. He must really like Grenadiers to buy two.
He is a software engineer. Everything he does has logical reasons. His plan to fix the wrong configuration worked out and now he´s got the better vehicle for less money. Well done in my opinion. Christian
LIKE THE guy from Harry's farm on here, he buys every 4x4 that comes on the market, us poor people buy used I am also having issues with my 2010 tdv6, windows n doors on the passengers side no communication, no volts at window power socket
Edgar did a great thing! The way Vera and Christian are going they already have more Land Rovers than Harry’s Garage! Not as many Lambos though @@Vera_and_Christian
Vera is spot on at 7:30 It's the lifetime of the oil (unknown due to many unknown factors when the oil was first added to the component) So you need some comman sense and expect ' filled for life" to be 2,3,4 or 5 years Change immediately when you take ownership of a used land rover, and change again depending on how and were you drive it.
Another absolutely brilliant and in-depth video. the dynamic of Christian and Vera makes this channel so enjoyable, educational & funny. Edgar was kind to gift his oscillatorscope to you. What a lovely chap. Thanks for making Sunday's enjoyable
Have you guys ever thought about doing an old Landrover , Series 1 , Disco 1 or 2 ? There is a young girl whose channel is Land Rover Sophie who has . Believe it or not when she started on her first she was a secretary at her local undertaker She impressed her local Aston Martin dealership so much with her skills they have given her a job , she is doing an apprenticeship with them What she has taught herself is on another level , your son would be impressed with her metalwork skills as well Have a great week 👍👍👍
Not sure what we do next. We have to finish the queen and then decide which one we sell. I got a full time job and whatever we do needs to fit my time budget. Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian it is the most useful car. Easy to maintain, easy to get parts. It can do everything. It is ugly and not comfortable. But regardless of the latter, like a human being with these characteristics, it can still be loved.
I used to have scopes like that with FFT from the 1990s and 2000s and they worked very well to support work with my Solartron frequency response analyser. That was a blast from the past 😂
I have to educate myself on this unit. There will be a science project video on the ACE suspensionon the queen down the road. I am working on this right now. Christian
Great stand up routine Christian and Vera. Henning Wehn has finally got competition. Although I only have a VW Tiguan, I feel fully prepared for future Range Rover ownership, apart from the hoist on my driveway that is. Best Wishes
Your videos got me looking at LRs, and I ended up with a 300tdi D1 in my driveway. One thing that I really appreciate about it, is that so far literally everything can be taken out with just hand tools. I've also had a number of Toyotas, and while they don't frequently require work, when they do you need some special tool, or you have to modify your tools, in order to work on them. It's like LR knew their vehicles were going to need to be worked on, so they designed them for maintenance rather than assembly. It's wonderful.
Don't know why but I always find it satisfying when I change all the fluids. A bit sad, but it's as if the vehicle is thanking me 😁 great video as usual
Two class acts. Such a joy to watch Christian and Vera. Our local heroes. When are you going to to make a trip to East Sussex. The Queen needs a trip home sometime soon.👏❤️🥸
Even though I only own one of the Queen's lowly subjects (D3) I am really enjoying this series of videos of the Queen and how you are bringing her up to standard. What a mess it makes with the oil change why don't they just have drain plugs on the bottom where they belong! There wasn't an out take so the test drive must have gone well😊I also use your app for recording all the 'spendies' and maintenance carried out it's a great way to see where the kid's inheritance is going 😂. See you next week.
I don't have a friend like Edgar so I have ordered my must have oscilloscope from the Itchyfanny Tofu Dreg Factory Guangzhou. If it arrives I have space beside the Lathe in my kitchen. Tip Top episode once again.
Another entertaining video as usual - and extra thanks for the link to the Service History site. Note that you can change the make as well, so I switched it to Jaguar, and I was able to download the full JLR service record for my 10 year old XF 3.0D-S. Brilliant!
Enjoy all you do together, educative with the right approach. Concerning the Diesel filter, 24K miles, lets say 40K km. is in my opinion overkill if you always refill at the bigger gas stations in Europe. Our diesel is so clean the filter can last 100K km without problems. The maintenance schedule from the manufacturers is based on diesel in very remote, less developed countries . Open the old Diesel filter and check it for debris. Keep on going the good work !
True. But only one time filled at a poor gas station changes everything. We never found any contaminants in the diesel in our cars. Diesel is extremely clean in Germany. Christian
If I had these skills - I would buy another Range Rover. But relying on dealers in the US - no way in hell. Awesome to see you guys doing this work the right way - such care and precision!
Just did the front, rear differential oils and the transfer case on my L494 last week. The transfer case seems to have cured the judder I was getting when pulling away with steering lock. I just did the quick way with the fuel filter and did not remove the middle plastic trim and brace then stuffed around the fuel filter with blue roll. A bit more messy but it was too cold that day. Still trying to find my handbrake issue though so I have something to keep me busy at least. 🤷🏻♂️😂
It should be obligatory for all people who work commercially on Rangerover, Lr3 and Lr4 to watch your videos (including an examination)!! By the way, I guess I’ve been updated to version 3. I don’t know when, but I could find the video description, haha! Thanks Christian and Vera for yet another skillful performance and witty comment!
I'll never tire of this! 😂 I'm glad I've given up drinking because I had the urge to do a shot every time I heard the word DRIBBLE. Wunderba as always guys!
😅👍That pile of wood is my pride and joy. It was a lot of work, really a lot of work, harvesting out of the forest. I have touched every single piece of wood, that goes into my oven 5 times.🙋♀️
I own a 2014 L405 V6 gas. I never get under the car or remove the engine oil drain plug for periodic oil changes. The large oil capacity guarantees a mess (5W20 in North America), so LR placed an oil drain suction pipe under the oil filler cap to connect to a pneumatic drain. It's also why they put the oil filter on top of the motor. A pneumatic suction air tool connects to your air compressor line and uses a venturi effect to draw out the oil or any fluid via a hose connected to the pipe, which itself goes to the very bottom of the oil pan. It is pretty inexpensive and very handy for any DIYer. Turn it on, sit back, and enjoy an adult beverage. Great videos, many thanks.
Thanks. Your videos are the first time I have heard of the GAP IID tool in North America. Cost over USD$500. Do you recommend it because it is a dedicated LR diagnostic tool? It seems similar to a Carly device I use for my 2008 BMW, which is also a BMW dedicated device.
@@m.cooper1854 We use icarsoft (LR/Jag) and the Gap tool, with the Gap tool, you can change settings and do calibrations, you can't do that with the icarsoft. But then, not really everyone wants to dig that deep into their Land Rover. For most, the icarsoft is good enough.🙋♀
Great advice, thanks. I am very pleased that the two of you purchased Her Highness. There is very little on RUclips on L405 and lots of content opportunities for you. For example, my owner's manual under headlight bulb replacement states go to dealer.
Great videos, enjoying them. As someone who is considering a used L405 however, you’ve curbed my enthusiasm for wanting one a lot! I don’t have any mechanical skills and I wouldn’t want one that breaks every other week. I don’t know what else to get. But I’ll keep watching anyway.
So happy to have found this Channel for our upcoming velar and discovery sport. You guys are great! Love how you guys do the proper service for the LRs. Subbed.❤
Love the German humour.I bought a 2011 XJ at first I loved it in the end I realised You needed to be a mechanic to own one or a millionaire with a good mechanic.
You are a god and welcome to the L405. All jobs on my queen have been done, including a transmission megaflush. Oil cooler job is next weekend. Ich hoffe, dass es reibungslos verläuft! Keep up the content 😊
Today Christian and Vera I have been working on my Toyota hilux in New Zealand I was installing a new radio and followed your wiring procedure plus is minus works a treat until the smoke got out hahaha. Just kidding love your videos keep it up the queen is looking great 👍
My 'new to me' 2001 Range Rover P38 Bordeaux is delivered tomorrow morning. And you think YOU have problems? 😂😂😂😂 But that sump drain 'dribble' was hilarious. Been there and got the oily T Shirt ! That L405 sounds absolutely superb and now its in good hands it will reward you with many miles of superb driving time.
I enjoyed watching this video while I changed the motor oil (5W-Dumbass) and transfer case oil in my 235k mile 2006 Toyota Sequoia. So simple, so easy, and since it is a Toyota I don't have to do it again this century. Oh my God !
As far as I know you reset the adaptation only when you chance/repair the valves in the machatronic. The gearbox adapts after a while to the new oil. On my bmw I changed the oil twice. Using cheaper oil from liqui moly at first.
Black Sabbath were the very first band that I ever saw live, when I was a very young teenager. Im guessing that was Vera's choice of music 🤔 I will email you a pic of my ticket stub. Another brilliant video from you both, I just couldn't imagine Sunday morning without my LR TIME fix. 😀👍
Yes. We may convert to 5W40 but only after I measured oil pressure and did some more research. I think there much less failures especially on maintained engines. Christian
Nice work! Really love your content, your logical thinking and never surrender attidude. 👍 A little note on the video - it seems you forgot to drain the little turbo oil sump during the oil change. The drain plug sits right behind the crossmember thus hard to spot. At least it is on L322 body (same 448DT engine). About half a liter comes out from there. Keep up the good work and greetings from Estland! 🙂
tip for l405 4.4 SD oil filter change, just buy an oil extractor, the factory tube WILL extract all of the oil, no more than 100ml will remain in the lower pan, and if you change your oil often, there will be zero sludge or dirt on the plug. You can do the entire oil change without lifting the car onto a hoist.
Another great episode 😊 Just wondering how that strip light you got for Christmas 🎄, i think is going? Does it last a while when fully charged? Cheers Rob from Tasmania AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
No, it does not last. Its good for a 30 min Toyota repair only. But it came with a permanent supply and the function and light output is really great. Christian
Brilliant stuff ☘️😁😁😁 from northern Ireland the mechanics I can do the electrical side different ,, my Tdv8 sport gearbox oil change at80; thousand miles,, that's why I bought it,, service is everything,,👍👍👍👍 from northern Ireland 😁
Great Channel I always wondered what Jurgen Klopp did in his spare time amazing Man , and who said Germans don't have a sense of Humor really funny and interesting I love the Queen reference quality ....but I still believe you are both English as your English grammar is excellent even the funny quips you throw in so your English putting on dodgey German accents 😅🤣🤣A great watch makes my day , and I love Range Rovers keep it up xxx
I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that in order to own a Range Rover or Disco for that matter you need to be a millionaire,(probably) . If you cant do your own maintenance thats a cast iron certainty. All the best from England, i really enjoy your laid back and jovial approach to fixing things, by the way i am a V70 owner. 😀.
Yes, or a drug dealer or similar job. I bought two front tires now for 766 Euro. The car is significantly more expensive to own than our LR3 or LR4. Maintenance set aside. Chritstian
@@Vera_and_Christian I just did two tire changes on our '13 Freelander 2 and '17 Discovery Sport (both with Continental AllSeason Contact 2 / TO (*); 235/60 R18 103 T M+S) and they were €650 for all four ... must be the larger diameter and width on the Range Rover.
Christian and Vera, I love your channel and they way you 2 interact with each other, I realise that this is a landrover based channel (mostly) You often mention in jest Toyota's and the reliability that they have, Could you please consider, even if it is only as a project vehicle to fix then sell (for a profit obviously ) a simular or equivalent Toyota 4wd equivalent model LandCruiser and delve into what is needed to fix it, and give it comparable and comparison driving tests to your landrover and let's see in all seriousness how they both stack up I value your technical skills and your opinions of the work you accomplish on those you own and keep running It would be interesting to see costs compared to parts needed, and ease to replace, basically what you do on the Landrover, you are so thorough and exacting I think many of your subscribers would also be interested as well. Not all of us could or can do what you do and you are in a perfect situation to beable to compare the both makes. Thankyou both for wonderful videos I watch with much enjoyment every one you put out. Tony from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Hello Tony, a Land Cruiser is a expensive to own vehicle in Germany. We will likely buy one at one point and check the general quality. Thanks. Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian thanks Christian, I will just have to hang around and wait till that time comes around then, It would be an interesting set of videos especially when you add your special brand of humour to it Thank you again
Impressive: Massive amount of aluminium in body and chassis parts and this results in 2800kg. But thanks to Euro 6 this is still cheaper in tax than my Z3QP 3.0 with Euro 3 and 1375kg. BOTH cars a probably mainly driven by 1 -2 Persons.
Right. But people go crazy when a 3,5to "Joghurtbecher" is overloaded, by 2%. I do not know what the GWD on that RR is, but one can imagine 5 guys à 85kg +125kg payload = 550kg. A roof-rack a a tent or other BS is an additional 150kg, so we are 700kg load. easily.@@Vera_and_Christian

Land Rover should make you two instructors for their mechanics tech update days. Great video as always.
As a veteran of several autobox oil changes, getting everything within several square miles covered in oil is perfectly normal.
Ok, thanks. I do agree. 50% work, 50% cleaning. Christian

Perfect, my favourite Sunday morning viewing, thanks to you both.
I’ve done it I’m in the club at last …. Picked my freelander 2 up yesterday I love it 🎉
Congratulations!
This channel inspired me to finally open the hood on my wife's LR4 Mall Crawler (and it was complaining about a low coolant level).
Good job but there is no way back now. Same as when you used the washing machine for the first time... Christian
My weekend is incomplete without you guys!
Nice present from Edgar, thanks Edgar we will all learn something from this lovely tool.
Yes. Very nice of him. Thanks. Christian
Classic LR Time episode. You two are getting good at this…
Vera is spot on at 7:30
It's the lifetime of the oil (unknown due to many unknown factors when the oil was first added to the component)
So you need some comman sense and expect ' filled for life" to be 2,3,4 or 5 years
Change immediately when you take ownership of a used land rover, and change again depending on how and were you drive it.
👌👍🙋♀️
Thanks!
Another absolutely brilliant and in-depth video. the dynamic of Christian and Vera makes this channel so enjoyable, educational & funny. Edgar was kind to gift his oscillatorscope to you. What a lovely chap. Thanks for making Sunday's enjoyable
I invested in a Draper 10L vacuum pump for oil changes via the tube next to the oil filler cap. Works a treat for intermediate oil changes 😊
As a long term Hilux owner i don't think this is the vehicle for me 😂😂, Brilliant channel never stop making the best LR content 💪
That thing is even for Discovery driver too much. Christian
Have you guys ever thought about doing an old Landrover , Series 1 , Disco 1 or 2 ?
There is a young girl whose channel is Land Rover Sophie who has . Believe it or not when she started on her first she was a secretary at her local undertaker
She impressed her local Aston Martin dealership so much with her skills they have given her a job , she is doing an apprenticeship with them
What she has taught herself is on another level , your son would be impressed with her metalwork skills as well
Have a great week 👍👍👍
Not sure what we do next. We have to finish the queen and then decide which one we sell. I got a full time job and whatever we do needs to fit my time budget. Christian

Definitely worth a look at 👍👍

That L405 sounds absolutely superb and now its in good hands it will reward you with many miles of superb driving time.
Enjoy that P38. Christian
I enjoyed watching this video while I changed the motor oil (5W-Dumbass) and transfer case oil in my 235k mile 2006 Toyota Sequoia. So simple, so easy, and since it is a Toyota I don't have to do it again this century. Oh my God !
I haven't even got a Ranger Rover so why am I looking forward to watching you guys service one ..
😅👍🙋♀️
I am astonished at the quality of your English. Ausgezeichnet!!
As far as I know you reset the adaptation only when you chance/repair the valves in the machatronic. The gearbox adapts after a while to the new oil.
On my bmw I changed the oil twice. Using cheaper oil from liqui moly at first.
We have enough videos on that topic. Check them out. 👍🙋♀️
Black Sabbath were the very first band that I ever saw live, when I was a very young teenager. Im guessing that was Vera's choice of music 🤔 I will email you a pic of my ticket stub. Another brilliant video from you both, I just couldn't imagine Sunday morning without my LR TIME fix. 😀👍
What a great job guys. So pricice. Loved it
Great video as always. But if you read fullfattrr you’ll see that some of these engines have actually spun bearings 😢
Yes. We may convert to 5W40 but only after I measured oil pressure and did some more research. I think there much less failures especially on maintained engines. Christian
Great video and good explanations. Thank you for sharing the manuals and other links.
Hey love the details you gave us very useful indeed, do you mind make one video on where to check if rear entertainment screen is black out?
I love your work and humour too
Nice work! Really love your content, your logical thinking and never surrender attidude. 👍 A little note on the video - it seems you forgot to drain the little turbo oil sump during the oil change. The drain plug sits right behind the crossmember thus hard to spot. At least it is on L322 body (same 448DT engine). About half a liter comes out from there. Keep up the good work and greetings from Estland! 🙂
I will check this out. I think the L405 is different but I am not sure. Thanks. Christian
Again a very good video!
Thank you Cristiaan&Vera.
Hvl.
Superb yet again
this vid gave me a reality check if I really wanna get a used Range. I doubt Land Rover does all these fluid changes as they should
tip for l405 4.4 SD oil filter change, just buy an oil extractor, the factory tube WILL extract all of the oil, no more than 100ml will remain in the lower pan, and if you change your oil often, there will be zero sludge or dirt on the plug. You can do the entire oil change without lifting the car onto a hoist.
Yes we know of course. 😅👍🙋♀️
Another great episode 😊
Just wondering how that strip light you got for Christmas 🎄, i think is going?
Does it last a while when fully charged?
Cheers Rob from Tasmania AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
No, it does not last. Its good for a 30 min Toyota repair only. But it came with a permanent supply and the function and light output is really great. Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian That's a shame, Thanks for the reply Christian 👍
Brilliant stuff ☘️😁😁😁 from northern Ireland the mechanics I can do the electrical side different ,, my Tdv8 sport gearbox oil change at80; thousand miles,, that's why I bought it,, service is everything,,👍👍👍👍 from northern Ireland 😁
Great Channel I always wondered what Jurgen Klopp did in his spare time amazing Man , and who said Germans don't have a sense of Humor really funny and interesting I love the Queen reference quality ....but I still believe you are both English as your English grammar is excellent even the funny quips you throw in so your English putting on dodgey German accents 😅🤣🤣A great watch makes my day , and I love Range Rovers keep it up xxx
I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that in order to own a Range Rover or Disco for that matter you need to be a millionaire,(probably) . If you cant do your own maintenance thats a cast iron certainty. All the best from England, i really enjoy your laid back and jovial approach to fixing things, by the way i am a V70 owner. 😀.
Yes, or a drug dealer or similar job. I bought two front tires now for 766 Euro. The car is significantly more expensive to own than our LR3 or LR4. Maintenance set aside. Chritstian
@@Vera_and_Christian I just did two tire changes on our '13 Freelander 2 and '17 Discovery Sport (both with Continental AllSeason Contact 2 / TO (*); 235/60 R18 103 T M+S) and they were €650 for all four ... must be the larger diameter and width on the Range Rover.
Brilliant, loving the videos on the new car...
Christian and Vera, I love your channel and they way you 2 interact with each other, I realise that this is a landrover based channel (mostly)
You often mention in jest Toyota's and the reliability that they have,
Could you please consider, even if it is only as a project vehicle to fix then sell (for a profit obviously ) a simular or equivalent Toyota 4wd equivalent model LandCruiser and delve into what is needed to fix it, and give it comparable and comparison driving tests to your landrover and let's see in all seriousness how they both stack up
I value your technical skills and your opinions of the work you accomplish on those you own and keep running
It would be interesting to see costs compared to parts needed, and ease to replace, basically what you do on the Landrover, you are so thorough and exacting I think many of your subscribers would also be interested as well.
Not all of us could or can do what you do and you are in a perfect situation to beable to compare the both makes.
Thankyou both for wonderful videos I watch with much enjoyment every one you put out.
Tony from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Hello Tony, a Land Cruiser is a expensive to own vehicle in Germany. We will likely buy one at one point and check the general quality. Thanks. Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian thanks Christian, I will just have to hang around and wait till that time comes around then, It would be an interesting set of videos especially when you add your special brand of humour to it
Thank you again
Impressive:
Massive amount of aluminium in body and chassis parts and this results in 2800kg.
But thanks to Euro 6 this is still cheaper in tax than my Z3QP 3.0 with Euro 3 and 1375kg.
BOTH cars a probably mainly driven by 1 -2 Persons.
Yes. The tank was full - 100L. Still, the reputation is that this car is lighter than the LR4 and it is not. Christian
Right. But people go crazy when a 3,5to "Joghurtbecher" is overloaded, by 2%.
I do not know what the GWD on that RR is, but one can imagine 5 guys à 85kg +125kg payload = 550kg.
A roof-rack a a tent or other BS is an additional 150kg, so we are 700kg load. easily.@@Vera_and_Christian
The Vera "OMG" count is 13
😅👌🙋♀️
Oh, wow. I cut out many more. A video like this is about 10% of the footage we film. Christian.
My everyday car is a 1994 Range Rover Classic 300TDI Auto 275,000miles. It gets me from A to B in the same time as everyone else on the road.
Yeah, many cars do that, getting you from A to B. But only a Land Rover gives you that much joy while on the road. 😅👍🙋♀️
Must admit I was worried about Christian underneath the Queen with all that weight.. initially
Yep done all those oil changes.. Great video
