Hi guys, Just after a little advice on preventative maintenance. My auto TDi D1 is approaching 180k, I’ve owned it for the last 80 k. Has been serviced every 10k by a Landrover mob and is stock standard and in good nick. What do you think I need to start looking out for? Wheel bearings? Gear box has never been touched? Radiator? water pump? ......What do you think?

When was the last timing belt change done ?
Idler pully's can start making noises as i have just found out :D.
Just keep an eye on simple things like hoses , oil levels , belts and
suspension bushes ...... other members will add some more info ;).

A very senior chap at Land Rover australia says change the rubber band every 50,000k's "and don't miss".
