repair/maintenance manuals - Land Rovers Only

New member and lr3 owner here. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good manual for the service and maintenance of the vehicle? Something like the Haynes or Chilton manuals.

Besides the one in your glove box. Try to find a RAVE cd.

I did some research for ya. There is no available RAVE for the LR3. The only thing is to subscribe to LR GTR.

only thing you can do youself are a the oil changes and the brake pads. And everything else gets very little maintenance.

Dont bother with anything else. Unless you pay to get it diagnosed first. LR3 and RRS require IDS or the expensive equivalent to diagnose and repair parts of the vehicle. Even after putting parts in you still have to calibrate or clear codes on the computer.

these are DIYer at all. Sorry but without the technology to look at stuff or the equipment to change stuff you are better off sending it a dealer or the equivalent.

Hi, also new here or at lest lurked for a while.

alldatadiycom has maint. and repair info, from the OEM manuals, only 16.95/year and I think another 12.00 to add other vehicles. Pretty good for TSB's and recalls as well as step-by step routine maintenance and more involved repairs to most systems. Just another alternative..
