    There’s several Raptor painted 4x4s in town. Smoother than wheels above but still textured.

    The was down fine with a spray and then a sponge over.

    That's how it was explained to me. The tangerine D2 I mentioned pretty much always looks clean. Raptor, or Rock-It, is urethane based paint. It's not sandpaper.

    That'll be an EU4, so blanking the EGRs without programming them out will result in faults, and cascade engine faults will result in multiple faults in other subsystems including the transmission.
    Initially there were other faults which went away almost immediately. so I cleared all faults but the only one to come back was gearbox fault
    The EGR block off kit supplied by X8R stated that no programming necessary for for my model but following your advice ill get this issue programmed out hopefully. thanks

    when I ordered the kit from X8R I had to supply exact model which is 2010 Discover 4 2.7. on there instructions it statesOur kit is precision machined; beware of welded parts that can fail. Our blanking plugs are fitted with Viton O-rings suited to the fitting environment, do not trust Nitrile seals.Land Rover Discovery 3 MK III [2004-2009] 2.7 (Diesel) TDV6 Land Rover Range Rover Sport [2005-2013] 2.7 (Diesel) TDV6 Jaguar S-Type [1999-2007] 2.7 (Diesel) TDV6
    This kit is compatible with TDV6 2.7 models with the 10th digit of the Vin number 6 or 5. If the Vin number is 7 or higher the kit will likely fit but the MIL will remain lit to indicate an EGR fault.

    Your 10th digit is an “A” and is a D4 so Euro 4.

    You need the EGR mapped out.

    Contact Old Jaguar (Cambo on here) and have them mapped out

That eventually arrived Thursday late and due to other work booked in, they didn't finish it until just after lunchtime Saturday so I decided to pick it up this morning rather than make a special trip to town.

    Mechanic wasn't there when I picked it up to confirm which brake pads he installed as the Akebono were not available to order in late December. Note to self: new brake pads better than previous so gently on the pedal...

    On Sunday morning I found my D3 had a flat cranking battery. Charged it up and it started straight away, however failed again at the next start attempt. Turns out the battery is now dead, and just on 2yrs old too. Looks to me to be caused by the redarc DC-DC charger remaining active after shut down and with a fridge left in the car on Saturday night its kept drawing power from the cranking battery. That night was all it took to kill the battery. Looking back on my battery trends (bluetoooth battery monitor) from my trip away at the start of Jan I could see the main battery volts taking a hit each night - but in those cases we where hooked to the main battery in my camper trailer so seems like there wasn't the same drawing down of power from the main battery as Sat night.

    I changed the main battery 2yrs ago as a preventitive measure as I had a flat battery while we where camping then, but Im starting to think the issue of the DCDC charger may have been around then, but I didn't have the bluetooth battery monitors then so wouldn't have picked it up. Still had that battery in the shed so I've put it back in with no more issues.

    I've sorted the DCDC charger now as for what ever reason a previous owner of my D3 had put in one of the old school redarc smart isolators, so just wired the DCDC charger to be powered from that.
