As this is related to the other post of suspension knocking - thought it might be worth reissuing. If we get the responses as we did previously, I will reissue a poll. L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!

I feel bad I have not kept up with things on RRS and missed this. My AR bushes and ball joints have just been done (again) so car is quiet for a while but I am happy to go up to LR for a moan if it is going to happen.

Are you guys aware of this Special Service Bulletin? It was released a few days ago:
I have copy of TSBs # LTB000123 and LS204-011 (North America) if anyone would like a copy, PM me your email address. |

They allow the body to be attached to the chassis I believe.......or the chassis to something or other. L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now! 5 series for the miles RRS S/C factory built HST - Gone 45 others have been and gone! |

Ah..I thought that was the whole idea of the sport so that the body didn't move seperate to the chassis like the good olde LR days when the wheels went round the bend and you got the lean over effect and you wondered if you would make it or not

My 06 plate RRS HSE TDV6 is in Guy Salmon Ascot being "redone" as I write this. This is the third time the steering knocking noise been done and the same number of tyre replacements in 36k miles.

Hope they are putting the new enhanced super strong ball joints on, otherwise you'll be back in the garage within a few months. TDV6 - gone

How would I know what they've done Josh - knowing them they probably put the cheaper plastic one's on just to make sure I come back (because I wouldn't any other way). Guy Salmon seemed to have done a good job at fixing the steering - it's much better but some idiot they gave the car to for a quick wash must have used 100 grade sandpaper - the whole car is scratched to ribbons. Realistically, I know that they would never accept liability so I haven't said a word to them. Good job is he missed so much of the car when cleaning it some parts of the bodywork were spared his mauling! They had the outright nerve to suggest in a letter they left in the car that they had provided me "with nothing but outstanding personal service" and hoped I would say so (tick the outstanding box) when LR send me the customer satisfaction questionnaire! Like hell I will!! The shame is I really love this car but I hate the problems that come with it and the hasle to get it put right! It's finally gone! Replaced with BMW 730SE in Sophisto grey Xirallic finish with Oyster (Ivory) and black interior. DAB, Climate glass, Ceramic iDrive and gear selector, power boot and iPhone Bluetooth pack - luvvin' it! I miss my old RRS "bucket" rattling around but it just had to go! |

Peter, they should be able to tell you which ones they have fitted. I was curious as I'm still waiting for them on back order with no ETA TDV6 - gone

Ok Guys, after coming off the phone from LR exec office, I thought it best to resurrect this one.
