rockauto.com Lots of parts, fast shipping, and usually good prices.

Depending on the part (of course) the factory ones are expensive, yet much better quality. There is more to the reason autozone can sell you a part so cheap other than dealer markup.

12/30/2005 3:37:18 PM

everyone keeps saying the dealer is the only place to get this SOB though. i guess no one makes aftermarket ones.

If advanced auto and carquest dont have it, who would?

12/30/2005 4:12:59 PM

Junkyard?

Or the guy who said he could get it on page 1?

Although the dealer tells you a price, they will come down in my experience. Start emailing dealerships and ask them to compete with each other. you will probably find one dealer has none of them and has to order it, while another will have 5 collecting dust.

ok, maybe not the exact part you need, but seriously....

The first link in google for "new old stock land rover" revealed this place:
http://www.roversnorth.com/RRD04/RRD04_17_20/RRD04_page20.htm

They list the ignition coil for $62.50

Took all of two minutes.

[Edited on December 30, 2005 at 4:46 PM. Reason : 62.50 not 65.50]

12/30/2005 4:46:14 PM

Try T-Hoff .they seem to have odd ball stuff in stock.......But seriously I would go have the Vehicle checked @ Rover Clubhouse after you get it fixed this time

^^^^wrong part. I have been finding those all day.

12/30/2005 7:40:23 PM

I figured as much....

12/30/2005 7:43:39 PM

Get it back yet?

1/1/2006 1:01:37 PM

nope.

1/1/2006 1:09:06 PM

Supposed to be finished wednesday.

1/2/2006 3:49:19 PM

this has to be the best project ever taken on

1/2/2006 3:52:59 PM

Do they even know whats wrong with it?

1/2/2006 5:05:00 PM

de espanol, he no speeaka de ingles

1/2/2006 5:16:59 PM

Damn, that really sucks.

1/3/2006 9:27:41 AM

they are going to put a new coil pack in it instead of a pull from a junkyard. I guess the dealer agreed to cough up the whole 600 and pay the labor for the repair. I was suprised he did because the car is completely out of warranty.

1/3/2006 11:42:34 AM

Are they positive its the coil?

1/3/2006 12:57:04 PM

thats all thats broken right now but it IS a land rover.

1/3/2006 3:00:26 PM

I predict a valve job next

1/3/2006 3:12:11 PM

Whats the deal B? Aren't you supposed to get your ride back today?

1/4/2006 11:12:25 AM

just talked to the dealer he said to call back in five minutes he is probably going to leave for lunch in two minutes

1/4/2006 1:53:43 PM

Gay

1/4/2006 3:46:29 PM

You could probaqbly get this one pretty cheap for spare parts. Hahaha

1/9/2006 9:05:09 AM

how many days had you owned the car before you realized it was a horrible idea?

1/9/2006 11:22:17 AM

well the fact the motor cut out going down the beltline the first week was a clue.

1/9/2006 1:19:37 PM

my buddy works at roverclubhouse

1/9/2006 10:04:12 PM

Thats where it would go if i was fixing it. I am still haggling with the dealer trying to get him to fix it. If that fails im going to take it out to rover clubhouse.

1/9/2006 11:51:37 PM

if you knew my buddy you wouldnt take your shit over there

1/9/2006 11:56:27 PM

I mean who in Raleigh specializes in working on Rovers????

1/10/2006 12:54:37 PM

Take it to Land Rover of cary and have them check it out and find out what parts you need. I will get the parts at Employee Cost, and have Dirty fix it.

1/10/2006 1:20:48 PM

can we get a total # of days owned to total # of days in the shop comparison

1/11/2006 11:33:05 AM

roughly

I drove it for a week (it began fucking up after about 4 days) at the end of that week it went to the shop. I picked it up about three and a half weeks later had it for one day and then took it back to the shop.

It is presently at the shop.

1/11/2006 6:24:37 PM

7 days drive time : 5 weeks shop time

- the REAL problem is sticking valves (as someone suggested earlier) once it heats up the exhaust valves begin to stick and cause the erratic misfire. its going to have to have the valves cleaned/replaced. ($Texas) as someone suggested on page 1.

It's lawsuit time.

1/13/2006 4:27:00 PM

i don't recall seeing it last night around midnight - but i wasn't looking i guess - this has been a fun lesson for you i bet though

1/13/2006 6:11:18 PM

he is gonna take it back. i got to find something else up there.

1/13/2006 7:06:31 PM

I'm telling you B, that Yukon for $20k is a fuckin' steal and Tim (the owner of Capital) won't sell you a piece. That's where every single one of our cars (even my Honda) have come from.

1/13/2006 7:38:38 PM

BTW, did u get something else yet?

1/13/2006 7:39:02 PM

the mechanics at land rover said they have had to do valve jobs on these things at as little as 30,000 miles

so hes gonna take it back toward another car thats up there

(only problem) there is not really shit up there but LAND ROVERS

There is a loaded Tahoe (which was what I wanted to begin with) only problem is 104,000 miles.

1/13/2006 9:49:30 PM

a tahoe with 100k is better than any 97 rover
