    My Dad has the exact same car but in silver, he had a problem with the ECU for about a year so whenever he floored it the car would stall for about 10 seconds. Only recently did he get it sorted and its working a treat again. The 2005-2013 Range Rover Sport is only of my favourite cars and I am considering buying a 2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 when I have the money. It’s a great car. 👍🏼

    • @CraigsChannel
      @CraigsChannel  5 лет назад

      Was the issue an injector fault? Sounds like the ECU was putting the car into Limp mode.
      I still love this shape, seems everybody else does as well by the views and likes it's had.
      I'd recommend getting the face lift, it's got a nicer interior and fancy front lights.
      I did this video so long ago now, had a few cars since then if you have a look through my videos, more than likely something else you'll like I've had 😁

      Diesel Range Rovers don’t feel slow at all, they aren’t exactly light so they handle and tilt like a boat on heavy water, because of their weight the body roll is insane which makes you feel alot faster than you actually are. I was hoping the new Defender would bring back the boxy body style, it does to some extent but it has the newer sleeker headlights along with the boxy front bumper which just doesn’t work.

    I like that, nice condition. I would think the DSC button is Dynamic Stability Control, you can turn it off to make the car more sporty but on a Range Rover probably best to leave it on. Good engine choice too. I live in the South West so you see loads of 4X4's, Range Rovers are very popular and the Sport one especially, it's smaller then the new standard Range Rover too. You also see loads of the Evoque around, not sure if it's a bit of a hairdressers car that one though.

    • @CraigsChannel
      @CraigsChannel  8 лет назад

      That DSC button I've never even been tempted to press and I've had the car 6-7months now lol.
      I really like the Evoques, they look nice and fresh. But 4x4's are becoming a lot more common, my shape is just heavy and bad on fuel, the newer shape get more than double the MPG

      I had the RR for about a year, I don't tend to keep my cars long. Soon as I bought it I knew the front end was knocking, I texted the person I bought it from but they ignored me, they must of knew it was a £1000+ job to sort, luckily I have friends in the trade and got it done for around £350-£400 I think it was. You want to check the air suspension works and all the other electrics.
      Check the manual works on the box as not many people use it and can fail.
      All tyres make sure they have plenty tread as there not cheap at all. I didn't realise but the inside wall on my rear tyre was ripped, it failed the MOT for that, due to the weight they are and people buying cheap tyres.

    Hi Buddy, does this Range Rover have Bluetooth Connectivity for music to play through speakers or is it just for calls? Also does it have an aux cable?

    • @CraigsChannel
      @CraigsChannel  5 лет назад

      It's just calls only no music as it's an older car now 14 years old back then Bluetooth music wasn't popular like today. You can buy cigarette lighter transmitters what you connect your phone to then tune in the radio.
      Yeah Aux is in the back next to the heated seats

      I sold it around 5 and a half years ago I think it would be. Was an amazing car, people told me to never buy one as they always break, but touch wood the only issue I had was bottom arms but they were knackered when I bought the car, think it cost me £300-350 fix that.
      Mpg was really good considering how big the thing was, driving was really nice, so comfortable but I think that's down to the air suspension.

    hi
    could you tell me each model has brembo brakes? interested me 2.7 from 2006 but my friend told me MUST HAVE BREMBO BRAKES because is a heavy car ,brembo pack is much stiffer and prevents rolling of the car,but I did't see with brembo brakes.

    Hi Craig am just from Hexham and looking at getting a sport tdv8. Just wondering if you could tell me how much yours generally cost a year to maintain e.g. repairs and general maintenance things (excluding insurance, fuel etc). And possibly some things too look our for when buying. any help much appreciated

    • @CraigsChannel
      @CraigsChannel  5 лет назад +1

      The tdv8 is the twin turbo so if either go that's going to be the biggest job as people say you need to sesperate the chassis from the body, how true I don't know but I've seen plenty picks.
      I had mine a little over a year and when I first bought it the bottom arms were shot, so bought some new and a friend fitted, along with Hunter 4wd alignment which worked out about £400. Service is the same for any car you'll just need a bit more oil in this. I could easily service it myself.
      Air suspension is a thing to check as the compressors and bags can split.
      I had mine a year only thing that broke was the rear parking sensor speaker £24 on ebay and sorted.
      Fuel wise I thought it was good, much better than other cars I've owned. If you check my channel I've had a few thritsy cars lol

    • @CraigsChannel
      @CraigsChannel  7 лет назад +1

      Kody Barnett I owned it for nearly a year, soon as I drove it I knew the bottom arms were knackered cost me £380 I think for 2 new ones, fitting and 4 wheels alignment through my mates. The local Range Rover Specialists quoted me £1000, bottom arms are just wear and tear.
      Common faults are the air suspension so make sure that works. Drive really slow in all gears and flick over to manual to make sure that works.
      These have two belts so make sure they've been changed.
      The only thing that broke was a rear parking sensor speaker, cost me £22 on eBay and fitted it myself.

Other than a faulty coolant tank (sensor was saying coolant low when it wasn’t) and a non working passenger window (drivers for you) that I traced to a common fault in the wiring under the carpet by the seat, it’s been an amazing vehicle. I’m at 125,000 miles (not sure what that is in km). There are many for sale in my area running good at around 200,000 miles which is comforting.

      4.4 is a god dam big engine, fuel prices in the UK are so high, that's why most cars are diesel here and lots more electric.
