change coils will be better.

Fuel pump is in the fuel tank, remove rear loadspace carpet and underpad to access

You can adjust release on front brace by loosening bolts and setting it. I grease all my latches with moly grease. And lube cable under dash shield.

You can energise the interlock solenoid, by you give a positive (+12V) lead to the RED and a negative (ground) to the black line at the transmission selector's connector.
If it works you should check the positive signal at the red.
It should be there if the ignition is on, brake pedal depressed, and the transfer box is in some gear, and the fuse 1 isn't blown.
At the black cable should be a ground signal if the selector in 'P' position.
If you give me an e-mail address I'll send the wiring.

The ABS problem, you have better to check followings.
- All the wheels bearings' play.
- are the ABS sensors at the deepst position? Knock some to that head (not strong) and they shouldn't move deeper.

Hi same Problem too dosnt really miss just cuts out at the same rev range, weve got new coil,leads,cap, dizzy button gonna double check the plugs tomorow but i am thinking maybe a dirty fuel filter or and issue with the dizzy in the module or wiring somwhere along the lines, if not i am thinking also that maybe the MAF meter may be shagged and over fuelling cos it does smell like its running very rich and u can smell the fuel coming out the pipe sometimesif u find anything else let us know how u go, i will post back on how i go :-)

possable tire balance if it only does it at high speeds

Check fuses under your seat there's 3 of them. Visually pull and inspect them.

If the engine is revving but the car doesn't move faster , I would be looking at the clutch or Gearbox.Sounds like the clutch is slipping.
Have your mechanic check it out.
Hope this helps.

The dash and tail lights are controled by the first "click" of the headlight switch found on the turn signal arm.

If the fuses are good, then your turn signal arm has failed.

First click is running lights (dash and outside marker lights), second is headlights.

The 1st position of the 2 position switch has contacts internally that have worn and no longer complete the circuit.

Replace the turn signal arm.

Sounds like the contact in the key remote has been shorted or broken. It has happened to many of my remotes. If you shake it does it sound like something is rattling around inside? If so, its unfortunately broken and you need a new one.

Get a hold of a repair manual from some where,

Easy dont bother locking the car i never lock any of my cars if a tea leaf wants to get in then let them as i dont even bother with a CD player ,your problem will have to go to a dealer with the relevant software to be able to diagnose the problem correctly ,it could be a simple fault with a worn lock mechanism on the back of the door lock barrel though so take the door panel off and check it out before you go to the dealer

http://landroverforums.com/forum/discovery-ii-18/inhibitor-switch-install-47239/ Here's a link to forum about your inhibitor switch.

have someone pull out the EVAP cannister (under vehicle, near fuel tank. it prob. needs to be replaced. if you can open it up, see if there is alot of dust inside, if so, replace with new one.

the easy way is take off the fuel filter shake up and down and drain the fuel on any clean container and you will be see how dirty are and check the fuel pressure in the line from the the tank if pressure is ok check the power or volts to the pump.
