    its a Rover, there is an upcharge, IF it would have been diagnosed properly to begin with, it would have been a junkyard drop and swap, few if any seals replaced and likely no further inspection of the new stuff.

    Most shops wouldn't have taken the pains Tim did, and would have balked at changing the shifter.

    200k of typical Rover owner lack of maintenance ( it starts and goes), is gonna be a project,

    Queens English translates to farm truck.

    If my outside faucet will thaw out I'll pressure wash it.

    I wouldn't go near a water source in this cold. I think I felt my nose hairs freeze this morning when I was splitting some logs for the fire. The dude I bought wood from (not my normal source) split them HUGE and it's pretty green. Luckily it's cold enough that the sap is frozen and they split nicely. I'm putting the newly split logs inside the fireplace to thaw.

    Just thought about getting this thing registered and inspected.. I need:
    • Tires - 255/65/16
    • Tape for rear turn signal
    • Taillight bulb swapped
    • Windshield wipers
    • Windshield washer jet
    • Interior put back together..?

    Interior will be fine as long as the seatbelt(s) are in place

    Got the registration done, temp plate and now I've got 10 days to make this Rover pass inspection. Ordered wiper arms, washer jets, made a deal for some tires, gotta clean up a few hoses hanging down, and tape the light and it should pass.

    First pass at the dmv was $129. Second pass after inspection will be a bit more because of taxes.. Ugh.

    If they’re anything like my Range Rover Classic lug nuts they are the biggest oversized nuts you’ll ever have in your hand.

    Working out how to fix the CEL p0446/p0447, poking and prodding at wiring yay. One last check before I determine if the vent valve is bad.

    (charcoal) Canister Vent Solenoid

    This is why land rovers are considered 'exotic' cars.. A vent solenoid this major rover parts supplier wants $500 for, normally they have aftermarket options at good prices when they are available. This was a fluke that I found the GM version and it's exactly the same! So hopefully if any other Discovery 2 owners have a p0446 or p0447 and decide to replace the CVS they might see this alternative.

    $500 - http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/WTY000020G

    $25 - https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/bwd-canister-vent-solenoid-cpv11/10101064-P
