Hi Richard had a new torque converter fitted so all is ok with the fluctuating rev counter and strange sqarking noise from underneath. Vibration when you let power off at above 50 is getting worse. I now suspect front diff but will know more when a friend of my local garage who works for a landrover dealership takes it out for a drive on Saturday. It is booked into paint shop on Monday for passenger front and rear doors painting. That will be free but front diff will be down to me Big Cry How are you ?

I'm good thanks Thumbs Up

That's good the torque converter didn't cost you anything - hope the diff doesn't bankrupt you Shocked

Lenny will be like new when you've finished!! Very Happy

I hope not Sad I am going to service him myself, just the basics,get to know the car a little better and save some money. I have to admit the how to guides on here are brilliant and are a credit to the people who write them. It has inspired me to service him anyway Very Happy First time may be tough but I will learn from there. Just getting a four poster ramp installed on the drive Laughing

evening at the chance of me sounding stupid here when did your car make the strange squawking noise ? mine has started but no other symptoms of fluctuating revs etc just a annoying squawk at 2~2.5k revs then its gone ! Sad
