First review of the V8 Range Rover L322 M62B44
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Since the landcruiser has taken 4 months and still isn't fixed, I've bought another 4x4 to keep me moving. Enter the Range Rover L322 Petrol V8, the M62B44 engine from BMW.
Will it be awesome? Or will it be scrap?

Welcome to our strange little party 😎
Quite a bit of misinformation here. The gearbox fitted to the BMW M62 TUB 4.4 litre V8 in the RR L322 is not the GM unit but the ZF 5 speed. Contrary to 'popular opinion', this is not an unreliable gearbox as it was fitted to several different makes of vehicle all around the world. The issue is poor maintenance: mostly by mechanics who should know better filling the box with the wrong transmission fluid and/or too much or too little oil. Either will cause serious problems as there is a strict protocol to be followed when servicing the ZF 5 Speed but so reliable is the gearbox that unless the internals have been damaged beyond repair, deep flushing and refilling with the correct amount of the correct ZF fluid will mostly correct the issues. FYI, the GM Turbo 400 transmission was fitted to the 3 litre BMW six cylinder diesel which was an option for the early L322s. BTW, after my exhaust modification, I regularly saw an average of 24MPG. Top Tip: fit High Flow Cats and SS Resonators: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fmaIxNOrk7neirw.html

Well it has a few problems but we'll get to work fixing them 👍
The thing that makes it a good one is Full Service History makes a load of difference on any vehicle.
Wrong, re gearbox, it’s the ZF-5HP24 gearbox made by ZF, the better of the two transmissions available in the first gen L322. The GM-5 came paired to the m57 3.0 d and could barely handle the power and torque that came from the 6cyl diesel. It wouldn’t hold 2 secs paired to an m62
i had one of these 5 years ago.........good luck ! check the draws under the front seats mine had the original first aid kit
