@@karliszemitis3356 vairs nav, bet 3 gadus nobraucu. Ļoti labs auto, bet vājā vieta ir tieši kārba. Pēc restaurācijas vairs nebija problēmu un tika nobraukti 50k. Facelift ir nedaudz patīkamāks tieši dēļ jaudas un griezes momenta. Detaļas arī ir pieejamākas un lētākas. Ja prefs ir bez rūsas, labā stāvoklī un par labu cenu, tad protams var ņemt, bet jāatcerās, ka kārba var pievilt un restaurācija maksā ap 1.4k.

Nice! Yes, these are way cheaper than TDV8 to run. You took the AC fan off? It's risky, because when you run AC in hot summer days, AC compressor runs on very hot temps. That's personal thing, but i agree, that it looks classier.

@carguy0446 hi I took the viscous fan off left the electric one apparently they are only need in very hot countries or if you do lots of towing the are designed to go anywhere mine has been off 3 years never gets to hot sounds better much more room under bonnet warms up quicker I guess very slight increase in fuel economy and performance if I need to I can always put it back on I have driven all round Europe even up mountains in Switzerland 🇨🇭

@thomasmaclennan2176 understood, electric fan is only for AC. And yes, viscous fan is loud. 😬 I have to replace the AC fan. Quite expensive. 😀

@@Yesterday23071 very nice, sounds like a great barn find! 👍 These cars are reliable and great tourer's for the road trips! Good luck with your car!

@@stevek3036 Thanks! I couldn't agree with you more. Yes, engine sound at town speed is little bit too much. I didn't know that gearbox slipping is a thing for these vehicles, but it seems that it's quite possible. Let me know how it goes with the sound barrier! :)

@@user-X555XX78 i think it was type 188, 3.23 ratio, fully built in Riga diff factory.

@@Salubrious101 depends on your needs, because as a daily driver it's fully capable of driving from point A to B and faster then underpowered smaller cars. And in harsh winters it's much faster then Fwd cars on the streets. If you want more power, with just 2k investment you can pump up power to more then 300hp with bigger turbo, intercooler and injectors. Good v8 will cost around 15-20k which is a lot more.

@@carguy0446Not so easy there. That GM transmission will disagree with you on that. They are already at their limit.

@@stop_lying_bro true, but i just offered a solution. It has to be fully built to hold that power increase. 20hp more would not be a big problem. A lot of services don't know how to properly restore these gearboxes. I had an X5 prefecalift with the same gearbox and i had to restore it, because it ate itself (previous owner restored it in service which don't what they are doing). After i done this service, i drove 50 000km without any problems and next owner still drives without problems. I drove quite harsh sometimes, car had more power and torque then Range Rover and it was only 300+ kg lighter so pretty similiar cars.

Not with a remap,

I’ve had my 2002 TD6 for 12 years, I drive across Europe twice a year and it cruises happily on the motorway at 130kmh. It performs great off road and in deep snow. Yes it’s slightly noisier than the 3.6 / 4.4 but nothing to fret about. Power is only an issue when overtaking in a tight spot and significantly exceeding the speed limit, both of which I’m happy to forego for the reliability and durability of this engine (mine has 307000 km and runs perfectly.) Over an 1800km run from Latvia down to Austria (mostly motorway but with some traffic congestion and urban driving) I averaged precisely 30mpg. However, the GM gearbox issue is real. They are reckoned to last around 80,000 miles (mine failed at 230000:km a year after buying the vehicle, but I don’t know if that was the original box.) I got lucky, Land Rover in Latvia stripped mine down and reconditioned it for 3000 euros but when that subsequently had issues, they replaced it with a brand new box free of charge(!!!) The issue can be mitigated against by ignoring the ‘sealed for life’ spiel from Land Rover and draining, flushing and replacing the gearbox oil every 50,000 miles which I am now doing. And be sure to give it anti rust treatment each year if you want it to last, which I also do. There’s a vid of mine on my channel.

@@DakotaWoods-pu4bz Hello! That's a nice story and congrats on this nice car! Sadly i already sold my E60 after 5 years of ownership. I wanted a manual, but since there was no manual cars on the market i bought e90 330i.

@@StevenOyston as mentioned in this site below, there are several problems -cracked pistons, egr problems, burnt out o-rings on fuel nozzles etc. In my opinion M57 is better engine, but you'll never know what will go wrong.

@@andreypetrash3808 if i remember correctly, it is built type 188 diff with 3.23 ratio.

Hey! This summer will be new video about this car!

Averege from 8-10l per 100km.

Yes, that's normal. This gearbox can shift faster after software update, but still, it will be a lot slower than new type 8speed gearboxes.

Yes, because of the electronics. Dtc is not completely turning off with just push of a button. Common problem with these cars. To shut down Dtc, you have to pull out Abs sensors, or fuses.

It was custom made from 4.8is exhaust. Don't remember exact specs.

Jest aż tak źle? 😀

TA technix exhaust manifold without cats. It's pretty loud, but this car is used mainly on track.

Hey, thanks! Rear diff is stock and open. :)

Thanks! Yes, it is! 🙂
