A different version...Funny you should post that @Andy, Land Rover have been doing this for years. And if you’re unsure if an evacuation tube gets all the old oil out then wait until the end where I find out.
The disco4 LR4 oil change and filter change 20 minutes with zero mess.
I’m all for a vacuum tube to get the old oil out. I won’t even have to buy and new tools
You remove the hood prop and move it back to the 2nd position.... Fun fact, it doesn't actually damage the windshield if the hood goes all the way up, we did it for months on 20 vehiclesSpeaking of working in the engine bay. What is the deal with this tab, halfway down the RH side of the bonnet. There is no way the hood prop can reach this?

This explanation is in the French part of the forum, but the pictures speak for themselves:I don't see a 2nd position?
Fun fact, I have a rope running down the centerline of one garage bay for drying tents. It had a rope loop already on it that perfectly slips-over/secures one of the hood spring/props
I thought this too. How does the 2nd hood position work?Speaking of working in the engine bay. What is the deal with this tab, halfway down the RH side of the bonnet. There is no way the hood prop can reach this?

Thank you Jean!This explanation is in the French part of the forum, but the pictures speak for themselves:
Position haute d'ouverture du capot moteur
Pour ceux qui ne le savent pas encore, mais le capot moteur a deux positions d’ouverture, une ordinaire que je n’expliquerai pas, l’autre plus haute, voir les photos. Pour cela il faut retirer la béquille et la repositionner à un autre endroit, voir également les photos.www.theineosforum.com
You disconnect the whole rod at the bottom and then connect it to the other hole a bit further back in the engine bay that holds it almost 90 degrees straight up.I thought this too. How does the 2nd hood position work?
