I have for sale a set of 4 18" wheels off my 2007 D3 se. No kerbing and only minor marks where balance weights removed. Currently fitted with 255/60/18 scorpion zero tyres but tyres should be considered scrap as they are all on or near the wear markers. No center caps
would make a good winter set of wheels or ideal as spares

Well after a lot of phone calls, emails to Land Rover & Sony Ericsson, Sony it seems that for all LR state on the website that certain handsets, manufacturers are compatible with their BT systems, it has came to light today from Sony, that it looks like they only test these handsets on a specific network and not all 5 or 6 that we have in the UK.

I've got a big problem I think.

I decided to have a look at the Sat Nav housing device under the passenger seat as I'm thinking of buying an update DVD.

What I see looks like a scruffy metallic lump with no DVD slot or eject buttons.

I've added a photo of it to my gallery.

It certainly doesn't look factory fitted.

Can anyone have a look at the photo and advise me please ?

Do the brake pads on a Disco4 XS has sensors in them to advise when they require changing, or do I have to manually have a look.
