HelP --How can i tell which mods have been done

Hi guys need some advice just recently purchased my 55 plate D 3 Hse
just wondered if anyone could recommend someone local to Tyne & Wear area who could do a Health Check and Mods and so on

also on the 4x4 info screen there s a pic of 2 unlocked padlocks
are these meant to show locked as you scroll through off road settings as it don t make any diff what setting i have
these dont change unless i turn off special off road settings then padlocks disappear
would appreciate any advise
cheers
Adrian

Padlocks show the diff status. Locked or unlocked.

The diffs lock when they need to and the symbol should change form unlocked to locked, you can get it to do it using the rotary dial but I cant remember which setting!

They lock automatically only when they need to be locked.

Don't be fooled.

That "mountain" is just a hill 307meters high and there is a track most of the way.
