V8 supercharged

Hi am looking at buying a V8 supercharged range rover sport and looking for a few answers and using my disco as a daily and very occasional use of the sport would the D4 screen fit in it the same way it does in the D3 and i believe the sport is based on the discovery chassis so would a hidden winch mount from a D3 fit also can the IID tool be used on the both cars if i pay for the extra looking forward to the reply's Bow down

Yes the iid will work. Will read fault codes for £0.

Suspension adjustment, key programming would be extra on a 2nd Vin.

Don't know what you mean by the d4 screen

No, the minimum size over the Supercharged's brakes is 19".

I'm also changing from a D4 to a Supercharged, see my thread here: http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic45424.html


I've decided to go for a 2012+ model, as these have the better SatNav and the Terrain Response is buttons instead of the dial.

There are some threads talking about 18" compomotives fitting over the brembos if you remove or modify the anti-squeal weights from the calipers.

Make sure you check out the 'what's your mpg' thread on the RRS forum before you buy a supercharged.

I had an FFRR supercharged (2007 facelift)

It was 13-14mpg around town and low 20s on the motorway. If I drove VERY economically I could get 26mpg on the motorway but that was allowing HGVs to overtake and generally not enjoying the fact I had a 4.2 supercharged lump there.

Great fun but the fuel bills will absolutely be worse than your man maths will ever try to quantify - it WILL be worse!! Laughing

Naks that was one of my questions as i have a 2012 sat nav screen fitted in my 2005 discovery and i wanted to know if it would also fit in the sport as they are the same chassis and the 2012 sat nav maps are older than the one i had in my 2005 set up while everything else on the later screen i dont think the sat nav is any better but the graphics are Thumbs Up

Ah, thanks for that info, Geoff!

I do prefer the graphics and the menu layout of the 2012+ models, but first I have to sell my D4.
