At 23 when torquing spacer if you have the torque wrench handle across the centre of the wheel you have the correct torque on the fasteners but less torque or turning moment to cause the wheel to turn. This is because the effective length to turn the wheel is from the centre of the wheel to the handle end. It's a useful trick.

From memory and I stand to be corrected. Park brake service. Tighten adjuster until 50lbft (in old money) registers on torque wrench on centre hub nut then slack adjuster 8 clicks . Any time we changed discs we serviced/cleaned handbrake shoes and/or replaced as necessary. Used Autologic to drive cables into service position so if that's not available a work around that would be an interesting video. Snap-on supplied me with a brake bleeder. Ran on 12volts and from memory pressurised the master cylinder reservoir and fluid to 5lbft (old money again!) This allowed the wife to stay at home and truly was a one person job. The low pressure avoids activating any abs shut off/bias valves. You all have good patience there. I see a Toyota in your future lol

Well done for getting the GAP tool, it will be helpful. As for the EPB, mine broke over a year ago and I haven't bothered to replace the $900 module. One of the reasons I didn't replace it is because what I consider a flaw. I got stuck in a big bomb hole at a bit of an odd angle (I was captured by a tree root underwater) but the bloody Land Rover then kept applying the EPB, which then failed. So here I am stuck in a hole with the EBP locking my rear wheels. The EPB should have released upon momentum (nope) and nor could I disengage it by taking out the cupholder and pulling up on the release cable. The only way to get going was to join the LR in the mud, carefully feel around the back of the wheel for the EPB cable and cut the buggers off with my bolt cutters on each wheel (BTW these are quite difficult to cut). I was then able to extricate myself.

Yea, that DSC procedure is ridiculous. I just went thru the same thing on my '08 BMW 750i. Ended up like you guys using a pressurized bleeder; but instead of having help pumping the pedal, I have a one-way valve on the bleeder hose. I put it on the bleeder, open the bleeder up, then pump the brake pedal myself. Way easier and no potential for divorce...well, not for that anyway. As always, a great vid and yet another encouragement for me to get an LR3. Now, if I could just find one in this crazy used car market we have going now.

The GAP tool works. The action for pumping is the same as the old method - you repeatedly push the pedal for 6 or 8 times and then you keep it pressed. At the wheel you open and close the bleed valve. Then repeat the pumping process until it tells you to move on. Vera was correct at the beginning as she wanted to pump the pedal. Good luck.

As always an extremely informative video , must confess I used a vacuum pump on each wheel , large bottle filled with brake fluid on the master , started with the furthest wheel first , then after doing them then attached the gap iid for the ABS module , just found it easier doing it that way as it was just me , also used class 6 brake fluid as JLR specified , thks again for sharing and looking forward to when u change the rear disc / pads , know the gap iid has a feature where u can disable the EPB , plus may i ask what do u think of the drilled and grooved discs please as heard there supposed to be better , always fantastic getting ur option seeing ur very knowledgeable, all the best to both of u, take care 👍👍, ps, was going to post a link of the one I used but can’t post them here as for some reason they get removed by utube

Yes, KZfaq will not allow any websites posted in the comments anymore. Most of the times it is good, because it eliminated about 80 % of the spam comments we get and have to delete immediately. But for you guys, it is bad. You can only send those now per email. 🙋♀️Vera

great video, once again 😊 ....but Vera, why haven't Christian put on some tree and rock sliders on you're car yet? even better, with all you're equipment he have in the garage, he can make them himself for you. will make it easier for you to enter the car, and also look great at the same time 😊

Yes, sorry I just only read your comment now. But thank you, I have been begging for some for 2 years now. However I have no problem getting into the car, I am quite fit and agile, more than most of my age. 😅 But I do want to ride along on them when filming on trails, so I don't always have to get into the car. 👍💪🙋♀️Vera

Another great video, Guys! And great riding by Philip too!! I wonder if the wheel alignment issue you have is related to that rear suspension boot repeated failures?
@Vera_and_Christian2 жыл бұрын
I don’t know. I couldn’t find the root cause for the failing boots on the right. Christian

Hmm, strange. I've never has a rear strut boot spilt in 640,000km on my Discos and I do plenty of off road. You missed the 2nd part of the brake adjustment, i.e. loosen the 4mm hex bolt release, tap the drum and retighten. Note the notches on brake backplate to help you locate the 2 adjustment positions of the drum for the handbrake adjustments. I find the IID tool ABS bleed to be confusing so I do a full bleed on all wheels in the old fashioned way. I think some of the problem is that GAP's (BTW its name is the Gap Eye Eye Dee tool :) first language is French as they come from the French part of Canada and sometimes their translations are a bit strange. Connect with Patrick at GAP, he's a great guy and really helpful.

No, we did that on the rear left wheel, and then there was a big argument between Christian and me that he forgot it on the rear right side. Did you watch the video till the end?😅👍And he, of course, has done that on the rear ride side also, off camera. I always win. 💪 🙋♀️Vera

Google „Gap iid bluetooth diagnostic tool“ you‘ll find all the info needed. It‘s expensive, but worth it if you are a dedicated diy Land Rover mechanic.🙋♀️

apparently having a scan tool to bleed the Abs is just for the fronts and its to remove the air inside so you will have to wait for the air from the abs to the calliper..
