Diesel FM. 10 months old 3000 miles. Very gentle road use apart from 300 miles towing 2 tonne boat. Not used any of the diff locks yet. Some low range work maneuvering trailer.
Started to hear a whine from low down. Probably transfer case or diffs as it is road speed related. Sound is...
Got in this morning, put in reverse, engine stalled and shut off. Started again and got the 2 warning lights on dash and message in message center. Now in Limp Mode. I searched and didnt find anything. Looking undernearth, looks like transfer case has a small leak. It drives around 6 mph in limp...
Looks like I’m now part of the leaky seal club. 1. Assuming front shaft seal at the transfer case, 2.) at the engine and transmission gasket? Noticed the spots appearing on my driveway. Never was fortunate enough to own a LR, but I’m certain this is how it feels :p I have the call into RDS and...
I took my Grenadier to fishing camp 2 weeks ago, The camp is on a dirt road and you have to drive through a creek (shin deep ) a couple times, In the process of driving on dirt road, a stick (as thick as your pointer finger) managed to poke a hole a the transmission dish (according to the...
So this is a new one. Got into the vehicle this morning and saw this. Truck was parked outside, but the highest temperature all day was around 78F, hardly what I would consider hot...
Anyone else experiencing this?
At the weekend I was out and about in an off-road area. I was driving in 3rd gear (manual transmission) in off-road reduction. The Grenadier had to work hard to drive up a steep slope. Suddenly, the automatic gearbox jumped from 3rd gear to neutral in the middle of the drive. The car stopped, of...
I wrote in a previous post that, considering the multi-purpose nature of the Grenadier, its ability to switch from a daily work vehicle to an off-road vehicle, from a comfortable car for long journeys to a tractor, it would have been very interesting to be able to have various mappings available...

So I see that it has a BMW B58 engine in it. When it comes to transmission, it is the same version as the station wagon? The Quartermaster is bigger and heavier. The ZF version was not at the same level as in a Jeep Unlimited- it was a ‘lesser’ spec version. Did they up the transmission?
If your battery is dead and you need Neutral for a tow or a roll or whatever, sounds like a 5mm hex socket and access underneath the truck is required. With the Grenadier's clearance (compared to any other ZF vehicle), hopefully this doesn't mean jacking it up.
It's such a common transmission...
