The condition of your antifreeze/coolant is critical too! Here in the Midwest, it easily gets down to -20°C if not much lower, bad coolant can freeze and your engine won't be able to start, or worse could actually crack the engine block.
Just fitted new boots to me l322, scorpion verde seems to have been killed off so went with Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season NCS (Land Rover) 255/50 R20 and have been super impressed.
I've swapped the mixture that was on the car for Scorpion Zero All season. There's only summer or all season available now. The difference it's made to the ride is very noticeable, especially the drop in rolling noise. Cornering is better too, particularly noticeable at the back.
‘11 L322 5.0L V8 HSE owner here from across the pond in America, m8. I copied your bulb installation with the brights with terrific results. Amazing lights, brightest on the road. I look forward to copying the DTRL too. Thnx m8
My truck had the same problem the moment I put the puddle lights, they won't work with both LED in, but works with one in. I put a power cable in to the battery out to the grill that allows me to plug in a trickle charger without opening the hood.
I like to give the glass some Rain X treatment during the winter months. Rain repellent on the exterior, including lights and anti-fog on the interior. Helps with visibility on cold wet mornings. Winter type screen wash that doesn't freeze so easily. If you can make use of a refractometer it's worth checking the antifreeze mix in the coolant too. Especially if your location is prone to reaching extremely cold temperatures. Also if your car is fitted with cabin filters I give them a check just to make sure they won't reduce the air flow for the HVAC system.

Weekly trip to the brushless car wash. Give the chassis a proper wash down with hot soapy water. I have PIAA Hyper Arros 2500k yellow fog lights. Excellent in low visibility conditions.
Just fitted the uppgraded Headlights, dipped and mainbeam , also was an upgrade from the V45 fitted last year to the V55 , Aliexpress delivery was less than two weeks. Thanks again.
My number one tip is flush a/c drain tubes, flush all four sun roof drain tubes, clean drain area on sunroof, treat all your rubber seals, lastly treat your windows with a rain x type treatment. These little things make our Land Rovers that much better in winter.
Hi Sam, if you're going to replace your light bar up front, you should check out Lazer Lamps UK. They look more in keeping with the svelte and understated front end on the RR. Just my thoughts obviously. Another great video, thanks!
Great information Sam please can you confirm the latest headlight and high beam upgrades you have used , also fog lights and finally the the legs in the boot and the softer lighting in the interior , Thank you Paul
you are right man, its easy to change the bulb on this one. on my w221 Mercedes s600 on the drivers side its alright to change it if you remove the coolant expansion reservoir, but on the passenger side , because of the ABC fluid reservoir and how tight fit that big ass engine is in there you have to remove the bumper unfortunately.
Every single L322 seems to have that exact issue. Saying that everything Sam fixes iv more or less experienced on my car , the good thing is all historical problems , good garages know exactly what the issue is , I had an oil leak that killed the starter motor last week, the bloddy thing was only 5 months old 🙄
@SamsMotors Sam I had the same and not worth repairing it, it will just come back, I ended up searching for a rust free one, took a morning to swap over after it was painted. Electric cables are not as hard as everyone suggests.
Having the same issue with the puddle (approach) lights. Put the old bulbs back in but still no joy (they were working prior to upgrading. Read online that you can force the door control module to do a reset by disconnecting the negative battery terminal for a short while. Going to try that.
Hi Sam, just picked up a 2010 TDV8 3.6 Vogue SE (my first RR) so been binge watching your videos. Given it's now been a few months, would you still recommend the LEDs for dipped beam over replacement HID bulbs?
Hi Phil, congrats on the new motor. I’d say they are a good upgrade - the light output vs a brand new HID is a minor improvement, but the LEDs won’t fade like the HIDs do in a relatively short time period. The last set of HIDs I fitted had noticeably dimmed after just 12 months.
Not sure if mentioned but if there are people delaying their coolant leak, and have subsequently filled their car with water, fix the problem asap. That coolant needs gone and replaced with something to withstand lower temps.
If fitted to a headlight which doesn’t control the beam properly, yes. E.g. fitting them to a headlight designed for a halogen bulb without a projector lens. Strictly speaking it would also be illegal to fit them to the L322 as it had HIDs originally, but as the headlight has a proper projector lens, it passes MOTs and doesn’t cause dazzling so is OK in reality.
Great channel and content. Just bought a L322 and wanted to ask you if you are still happy with your engine remap? did you also have a egr delete and were there any issues with that ? lastly can you tell me who did your remap ? Thanks again for an informative and in depth overview of the :L322
Thanks 🙏. Yes still very happy with it. No issues at all so far with any of the work done. It was done by a friend here in Ireland who is a Celtic Tuning agent.
You seem to be extremely knowledgeable so I’m going to take your brain. I have an 06 Range Rover supercharged with 116k, had 82 when I purchased it 2 years ago. It’s been in the shop because it wouldn’t start. We replaced the battery and alternator. I got it back and 45 minutes later battery lights came on. I took it back and the found the vehicle PWM sense circuit sending 12 volts out of return side of PCM. this fried the alternator that was previously installed. Recommend to replace vehicle PCM along with alternator. So that was done and when they went to get it ready for me to pickup they called and said it wasn’t starting (completely dead) so they needed to run more diagnostic. Have you ever had a situation like this? This car has always been maintained in a garage and has an excellent service history, and I’m the second owner of the vehicle, which is why I had it shipped to my home in the U.S. so I’m a bit perplexed as why this is occurring all of the sudden.

Since these LEDs draw just as much power (actually a bit more!) than the standard bulbs, they’ll generate about the same amount of heat. Whether that’s enough to melt snow is down to the design of the headlight itself really.
