Hi, I'm Peter and I've been fascinated by Land Rover vehicles for a very long time. A few years ago, I finally got my hands on my first Land Rover - a Discovery Sport. Unfortunately, it turned out to be too small for my family of four and all of our camping gear, so I knew I needed to upgrade to a Discovery 4 or LR4.
However, as any Land Rover owner knows, maintenance costs can add up quickly. That's why I decided to take matters into my own hands and try to do as much of the work on my vehicle as possible.
Through my UA-cam channel, I share my experiences with repairing and maintaining my Land Rover, in the hopes of helping others save money and learn more about these incredible vehicles. While I'm not a professional mechanic, I'm passionate about keeping my Discovery 4 in top shape and extending its lifespan for as long as possible.

FIX Your Broken Land Rover LR4 Discovery 4 Center Armrest Handle FAST!
Hey my Land Rover friends! 👋 🚙 In today's video I have to remove traces of the predecessor on our Land Rover LR4 Discovery 4, which came to damage due to the handling. In this case it is the handle on the centre armrest. A PIN has been torn off and the aluminium foil has already been removed. The foil is so sharp in places that I cut my finger when I touched it, so the part had to be replaced.
I have to admit, I thought the job would be done quickly. However, the assembly turned out to be a little more fiddly than expected, but see for yourself 😄
👍 If you like the video, I would appreciate a like or a follow!
Have a safe journey and enjoy the video,
Peter

Great video, this is a ZF trans? But it is not aa ZF 8HP? Is it ZF 9HP? Lovely Graz surrounding. I studied at FH Joanneum.
Hi, where can I buy this carplay block? What name is it?
Hey, you can find the module here => bit.ly/3NXOva4 Best, Peter
Good 👍
Thanks 🙏
Does anyone know if there is someone in Los Angeles that could install this for me?
Even better, use motul 300v newest version it has 0.93% ash and any c3 0.8% but it has far more superior lubrication at temperature, Castrol is very poor quality oil. My SDV6 os far smoother with it, and no, no dpf or egr trouble at all.
hi looks like a great set up .How wide are each of the strats across. looking to ensure I can still get my roof storage box around them if necessary
Vielen Dank, hat funktioniert! ❤
Das freut mich! Alles Gute
Great video and super helpful, many thanks for posting. I had the same issue so replaced the expansion tank. Although the sensor connector was a little loose, so may have just been that, but decided to replace it all anyway as I had the part and everything out. Didn't take too long. Just that bottom hose and stopping all the coolant coming out the engine once off!! Great fun. Thanks again
Hey, I'm really pleased that it worked out so easily! All the best!
Did you ever fix or identify the cause of your ticking? My 2016 Landmark Disco just went in for 140k service and main dealer is suggesting investigation of the ticking at considerable expense. Ticking is on same side as front cam chain. Love watching your youtubes btw!
I would recommend it! And yes, there's a very long story coming soon. My problem was the injectors, the connecting rod bearings and a few other things that after 6 months have now led to the engine being replaced. But more of that soon. Greetings, Peter
Excellent Very good 👍
Thank you! Cheers, Peter
How much oil did you get out?
It was a little less than 4 litres. Best, Peter
Nice rack but not having bolt holes for the slats is a big over site.
It's working a bit different on this roof rack and I didn't know that! Check out this video => ua-cam.com/video/WAxQUk-7IBE/v-deo.html Greetings, Peter
Very easy to understand video. Thanks so much!
Thanks mate! 🙏🏼
Same thing on my 2015 Sport 5.0. Stethoscope points to the injectors. Could it be right?
Hey, yes, it was the injectors, among other things, but also many other issues. More on that soon. Greetings, Peter
Seems like alot of work. Best to just buy a new car no?
It is indeed! But it's worth the effort 😉 Best, Peter
Thats impressive. 👍
Thanks, really appreciate it! Best, Peter
What miles did you do this at
On this one it was about 115,000 kilometres / 71,500 miles when I did the service. Greetings, Peter
Hello, thank you very much for the video. What is the name of the application to see the oil temperature? Regards.
Hey, the engine must be at normal operating temperature when you take the measurements. All the best, Peter
You make amazing videoes! Kudos to you! Have you changed your low beam bulbs also?? Curious to know what you ended up with there.
Thanks, yes I changed them too. Cheers, Peter
@@notthatkindofachannel i just changed mine to Osram Nightbreaker's and it helped, but I would not say the light became GREAT. Definately better, but still would love to find an alternative for the low beams.
Hi Peter I’m from South Africa …..Ich liebe deine Video mein her. I just bought my second LR Discovery this one a 4 in 3.0 td v6 2010 200000km. It is very beautiful look after. Peter have you tried two stroke oil in the diesel with that tick South African guys here are saying that they have succcess with this . Do you believe in 2SO? I’m still doing research on it
Hey, I can imagine it, but I wouldn’t recommend it. In my case, it was the injectors, but unfortunately, there were many other issues as well, which is why the engine is being completely replaced. However, I’ll be making a video about it soon. Greetings to South Africa from Austria, Peter
2 years on, are they still working? I don’t trust no name leds, I’ve fitted Osram kits in mine and they’ve worked well
Hey, yes they are! But I recommend to buy not the cheapest one. Best, Peter
hello . quick question i need to replace my back two sides break flexible hoses . do I need to bleed all four break after ? adrian
Hi! Yes, please always bleed all 4 breaks. Greetings, Peter
Good job!
Thanks, appreciate that! Best, Peter
De nouvelles vidéos 😊😊
Coming soon 😁
We’re did you get your skid plate from?
I bought it from a Polish shop called mp4x4.pl. They offer really good products for a valuable price! Use Google translate in chrome to translate the site. They’ll ship worldwide. Best, Peter
Excellent video as covers access and very clear view of the sensor and float, I will attempt to have your patience … but fail, many thanks
Check your intake manifold bolts closer to the oil filter, torque them to 10 Nm.
Hi Peter. Thanks for video. Is it a wired connection for better sound or just Bluetooth ?
Hey! For me the Bluetooth connection always worked fine and I had no problems with it. Greetings, Peter
@@notthatkindofachannel sorry what’s the answer. Bluetooth or wired ?thanks.
Hey, I would go for Bluetooth because it's more practical. But when it comes to quality, I think the sound is always better over a good wired connection because there is no interference. Best regards, Peter 👋
@@notthatkindofachannel sorry Peter. I’m not trying to be rude. I still don’t have the answer. Does the head unit have a wired connections? The one you fitted I mean… your opinion on sound quality is appreciated but I’m simply asking about that. does it have a plug direct for better sound? I understand the advantages with Bluetooth, but I’m only interested in the sound quality. In other words does it plug in direct with a cable. Thanks mate. I love your work. I also love the discovery 4
Oh, now I've got it! 😄 Yes sure, you can connect your phone to the module via a USB cable. Various cables are included in the set. All the best, Peter
I learn so much from your channel. Thanks for what you do. Really appreciate it. 👍
Thanks! 🙏 More to come soon! Best, Peter
I much prefer to use bi-facial folding solar panels so that I can still charge batteries when parked beneath shade of trees, by simply positioning them in full strength of the sun. I also wouldn't want to stick that mostrosity on my nice car bonnet! 😂 For charging during inclement weather 🌧️☔ I simply start the engine and the fitted Ecoflow charger feeds 800 Watts to the Ecoflow Delta 1024Wh battery. There is also no need to worry about a dead main starter battery when I'm parked up in the wilds for weeks or months at a time, because the Ecoflow will reverse charge the engine starter battery, even with the engine turned off.
Hi, have you found out what the whistling problem was? And how did you resolve it at the end?
Yes, there will soon be a very long story. My problem was the injectors, the connecting rod bearings and a few other things that after 6 months have now led to the engine being replaced. But more of that soon. All the best, Peter
Hi Peter, thank you for the video. I too tried to add a new key and the Error E5 was showing, and needed GAP Team to reflash the ECU KVM. However, I am now stuck as after flashing the ECU with GAP KVM update, now the car cannot detect my existing key, and I am stranded. Emailed GAP Team, but, it's their festive holiday... 😅 Should have posted this WARNING from GAP team. So, here it is, all be Warn. Hopefully Pat will come around. If anyone has contact with GAP team, pls help to give them a shout for assistance. Reichew
Hey, thanks for the information! How did it end and how did you fix the problem? Thanks, Peter
Superb video.
Thank you! 🙏
the new colour has come out nicely, I am considering spraying mine to black
Thanks man! I thought black on black wouldn’t have to less contrast and so I took that colour. Cheers, Peter
That’s a big difference.
Yes indeed! Now you can see what’s behind your car in the night. 😁 Best, Peter
great! thank you
You very welcome!
Hi Peter, thanks for your channel and videos. I have bought this unit and noticed it came with a camera. It would be nice to install this as a front camera. Do you have any experience with this? If so, any ideas how to run the cable from the cabin to the engine bay? Thanks John
Ok but HOW I can fix it? I cleaned the shield, but after six months it smokes again
Thanks for a great video and bracket PDF. What model and size are your auxiliary headlights?
Hallo auf diesem tollen Kanal. Was muss man beachten wenn man so einen schönen Discovery kaufen will? Gruss aus Vlbg. Vik
Hey, ich würde das größte Augenmerk immer auf den Motor sowie den Rost und das Luftfahrwerk legen. Aber alles außer dem Motor kann man mit ein wenig Suche immer relativ günstig reparieren. Alles am und Rund um den Motor leider nicht :( Viele Grüße
Nice color choice. Great job.
Thanks! 👍
Hi. Considering buying this. Would you still recommend it? Does it work in the USB in the glove box if you want to wire it directly?
Hey, yes, I can still recommend it! But I would also look out for newer models with possibly new Android versions as the operating system, etc. Shouldn't cost any more, but are faster ;) All the best, Peter
It's one of the best straight forward videos I have seen brilliant. Did mine today, 😊
Thank you! ☺️
Love the colour.
Which one? 😉
Great to hear your story. We built many happy memoroes as a family with our D3/4. Best car LR made.
Brilliant. Having just sold my L663 Defender to moe back to a D4 its great to see how I can retrofit some of the things I miss. Great job. Thanks. 👍
Really? I would really like a new Defender! But please not with 21 inch rims and stuff like that 😄 But I understand why it became a D4 again 😉 Best regards, Peter
The Defender’s small boot and rear door just annoyed me and I don’t like the D5 so D4 it is snd I have no regrets. Absolutely love it 👍🏻
I wanted to ship one of these to Australia but its not an option on their webpage. Sent an email to them but no reply. Looks like a very good rack and weight is excellent.
Hey, can really recommend this one because it's pretty stable! Best, Peter
Hallo Peter, wieder ein tolles Video - danke. Kann man den Schlüsselbox-Rahmen für den X-Lifter in diesem perfekten Farbton der Konsole irgendwo kaufen? Ein eigener 3D Print kommt für mich nicht in Frage. Gruß Jörg
Hey, danke dir! Diese Box habe ich selbst gedruckt, danach geschliffen, zwei Schichten eines Füllers aufgetragen und im Anschluss lackiert 😉 Viele Grüße, Peter
hey bud done this 4 times now today, each time its complete i raise it then lower back to standard but all 4 sides either a inch to high or to low at random sides any idea whats going on here?
What IID Tool are you using? Thanks for a great channel
Hi, at the moment I'm using the standard G3 Version. Thought about switching to the new one. Best, Peter
