The condition of your antifreeze/coolant is critical too! Here in the Midwest, it easily gets down to -20°C if not much lower, bad coolant can freeze and your engine won't be able to start, or worse could actually crack the engine block.

My number one tip is flush a/c drain tubes, flush all four sun roof drain tubes, clean drain area on sunroof, treat all your rubber seals, lastly treat your windows with a rain x type treatment. These little things make our Land Rovers that much better in winter.

you are right man, its easy to change the bulb on this one. on my w221 Mercedes s600 on the drivers side its alright to change it if you remove the coolant expansion reservoir, but on the passenger side , because of the ABC fluid reservoir and how tight fit that big ass engine is in there you have to remove the bumper unfortunately.

You seem to be extremely knowledgeable so I’m going to take your brain. I have an 06 Range Rover supercharged with 116k, had 82 when I purchased it 2 years ago. It’s been in the shop because it wouldn’t start. We replaced the battery and alternator. I got it back and 45 minutes later battery lights came on. I took it back and the found the vehicle PWM sense circuit sending 12 volts out of return side of PCM. this fried the alternator that was previously installed. Recommend to replace vehicle PCM along with alternator. So that was done and when they went to get it ready for me to pickup they called and said it wasn’t starting (completely dead) so they needed to run more diagnostic. Have you ever had a situation like this? This car has always been maintained in a garage and has an excellent service history, and I’m the second owner of the vehicle, which is why I had it shipped to my home in the U.S. so I’m a bit perplexed as why this is occurring all of the sudden. Also the garage I us is a specialist garage that only deals with JLR products. Any help would be greatly appreciate it. Thanks and keep up the good work!

The V55 Bevinsee's I've now installed in the main beams are A-MAY-ZING! Still can't understand why LR fitted luxury car like the Rangie with such crap (sorry, inferior) lighting? The LED reversing light upgrade from your video a couple of years ago even makes a difference to the reversing camera image in daylight. Not surprising when you see the pathetic 5w bulb they fitted in the factory. Keep the L322 videos coming - although mine only has 130k on it, it's the same age as yours and I think I'm going to bite the bullet and carry out the doughnut clean out your demonstrated in a recent video. On another subject, how long does the battery in your smart key last before it needs changing? I'm getting about a week (oh yes!) in mine. They're genuine Duracells with long life (2032) and it affects BOTH keys. Ever come across this before?

If fitted to a headlight which doesn’t control the beam properly, yes. E.g. fitting them to a headlight designed for a halogen bulb without a projector lens. Strictly speaking it would also be illegal to fit them to the L322 as it had HIDs originally, but as the headlight has a proper projector lens, it passes MOTs and doesn’t cause dazzling so is OK in reality.

@SamsMotors

Since these LEDs draw just as much power (actually a bit more!) than the standard bulbs, they’ll generate about the same amount of heat. Whether that’s enough to melt snow is down to the design of the headlight itself really.

@@SamsMotors those bulbs sound pretty sweet. I own a detailing company right outside Chicago and we see a lot of semi trucks.

I like to give the glass some Rain X treatment during the winter months. Rain repellent on the exterior, including lights and anti-fog on the interior. Helps with visibility on cold wet mornings. Winter type screen wash that doesn't freeze so easily. If you can make use of a refractometer it's worth checking the antifreeze mix in the coolant too. Especially if your location is prone to reaching extremely cold temperatures. Also if your car is fitted with cabin filters I give them a check just to make sure they won't reduce the air flow for the HVAC system.
