    As its servicing and I can grab some competancies off of it, Im happy to do the servicing part for you and you'll only be hit for fuels, filters and any parts that need replacing (brake pads and the like).

    But as i dont yet have a rover com or OBDII reader I cant help with the fault codes.

Can anyone provide me with the contact details of a good and an honest Brisbane based mechanic (not just for this problem, but for on-going servicing etc)?

    Can anyone also provide me with contact details of a Brisbane based Land Rover 4WD club.

    Had the same happen to me over a stinking hot day in summer. Everything worked fine but lights as you described. Got home -had a good xxxx and a lie down -- next morning turned on the ignition and everything was 'normal'-went for a drive still ok and has been since-go figure.

    I use both MR automotive and British Off Road at Forest Glen at the North Coast.If you speak to Harry at MR Auto, he will really get things soughted and at BOR Stuart is the owner and what he doesnt no about Landies /Rangies isnt worth knowing.

    I live at Kingaroy and both are competitive on new and used parts and I have them mailed and always in 24 hours.

    For Convenience MR is great, cause yoiu can go to the Redclifee for shore and enjoy a good feed and drink,

    BOR do have loaner cars, if you book well in advance.
    Tell Stuart Dave Kemp sent you !!

    Another vote for avoiding Marooka, I now do it my self (seems like less hassle, and you know it is done properly).

    parts and repairs...

    hello

    our family happily owns a 2001 diesel dream discovery. unfortunately some not so happy person decided to shatter one of the top 'alpine windows' (back top passenger side)..

    any advice on where to pick up a second hand one?

    was quoted in excess of $1500 for a new one!

    cheers

    Parts: need to say Jag Rover spares in brissie are brilliant (just bought a s/h 3.9l v8 off them today at a fantastic price and service). But British Offroad are always good too. Or any of the AULRO sponsors up in the banner adverts

    Service: Ricks 4WD at Nerang or MR Auto.

    Clubs: Gold Coast Land Rover (GCLRO) of course... we have about 15 brissy members
