Excellent presentation love it
My battery light comes on the dash, I have changed my Autanator it still comes on and charging half
Do you have a video of alternator replacement on a 2018 RR Sport?
I had to put mine in off road to get to it. It wasn’t that hard of job. Just follow steps and take your time
Thanks for the video! We were able to make it 196,000 miles on our original alternator. Only symptom was the battery light as mentioned.
TIP: We just used a 3/8' drive socket tip on a breaker bar on the driver side on the engine front to loosen belt. As you pull bar to passenger side you can reach your hand down (it is snug) and pop the belt off just the alternator.
Is the process the same if my Range Rover is non supercharged?
265,xxx Miles…. Thanks for the Video
Didn’t work for me, the cast housing where the 3/8 drive was supposed to “fit” just blew out all the soft cast metal. Useless now probably
I used a breaker bar with a 3/8 adapter to loosen the belt. No need for special tool on 08 lr3
I chased this light issue for a month. I was able to catch the voltage jump today. You described the symptoms perfect. Thank you for the video it was very helpful.
Hi, have you got a video on replacing a ACE pump
I couldnt rotate the alternator to undo the nut on the main power cable so manage to do it from the top easy enough. Just having a break for 5mins…………struggling to wiggle the alternator out. There looks to be less room on our L322 SC than on yours in the video
So to free up the tensioner you just put a 3/8" ratchet square in the top hole of the tensioner and lever it round?
hi so i changed my alternator recently and the very next day i get code P0563 (system voltage high). Radio stopped working, transmission fault with limited traction and gears. I thought the battery was the issue i changed it and hours later still having the same problem. Please help..
Would this be the same on a RRS 3.6TDV8? abiut to do mine today
Hi guys spot on video, I'm going to put an alternator on my car this wknd, would this be the same for a 09 3.6 tdv8 sport
Thanks
Had a bad alternator. No gauge lights for battery, just a limp mode home and dead battery. Old alt was 0 new alt 14.4. Replaced it. Got a new battery also. Hooked it all up and battery light is on the dash. Drove it for 15 minutes, ran great but had the battery light on. Came home parked it, turned it off, then back on and the thing was dead. 2008 Range Rover sport, 4.4. I’m beside myself. Just paid this thing off! I feel the key to the fix lies in the battery warning all the sudden working. Battery fuse on positive is fine. Can’t think of what would draw a battery to be dead in 15 minutes.
