Title: Slight loss of performance
Post by: Rangie on 18 August 2021, 11:02:11

Picked the RRS up this morning after its MOT & service I had noticed a slight loss of performance on kickdown turns out to be down to a split turbo boost pipe ,which has been replaced also had the aircon regassed, apparently the MOT tester remarked how clean & tidy the Range Rover is , my indie only uses genuine LR parts so all filters & oils & MOT came to £616 Inc vat, so for a years motoring on one of these I think that's pretty reasonable.👍

No, I don't think so. Little Pierre is only worth about fifty quid, maybe sixty with current inflation  ;D

Have had a quote for a stainless steel system so will see what's available, have heard one the same year as mine when we were in Croydon a couple of months ago that had a quad exhaust pipe system which sounded very nice.👍
