Thread: Recovering a D3/4/RRS

Also I believe I read somewhere (one of the LR magazines) that you shouldn't turn the steering wheel without the engine running as the pressures created can blow a seal causing loss of power steering fluid and possible damage to pump.

If you have no electrical power follow the advice and links that are in this thread and the FAQs to manually unlock the transmission.

It does also cover the no power situation with a short comment that basically says when there is no power, braking and steering will be degraded and to allow appropriate stopping distances etc.
