That makes it a bit of a job to put it back on if it was still OK.

We replace them every 40 000kms. At nearly $100 :o for a genuine filter, most people don't want it done more often...:p

Four Wheel Drives - Land Rovers New and Used Spare Parts - Home

Thanks Dobbo. I'll chase up their prices on a few things I need.

just be mindful that four wheel drives in melbourne is not the cheapest place for everything BUT...

if you need a rover part and can give an accurate description of your rover and its mods 99% of the time they will get the part that you actually need (as opposed to what you think you need) out to you inside of 3 days regardless of where you are in aus providing you pay the postage.......

I have never had any issues with four wheel drives in Melbourne. Always cheap, reliable and what I order. Quite often genuine LR parts as well. Their catalogue for referencing parts is worth the cost too.

Ditto that --who'd pay $100 a filter??, must be a big cost for postage.:)

thats only a bit less than I pay for all 4 including postage and handling.
