Wheels and tires (Range Rover 3)

Wheels

Removal and installation

1. Mark the position of the wheels relative to the studs so that the wheel will be in the same position when installed.

2. Loosen the wheel nuts. Raise the vehicle until the wheels are off the ground, loosen the nuts and remove the wheels.

3. Clean the disc mounting hole and hub mounting belt from dirt.



4. Apply a thin layer of anti-seize paste to the hub mounting surface.

5. Return the wheels to their original position.

6. Install and lightly tighten the wheel nuts.

7. Lower the vehicle and tighten the wheel nuts to 140 Nm.

CAUTION: Do not use power tools to tighten nuts. Tighten nuts diagonally using a suitable torque wrench.

Tires

Examination

1. Check the tires to ensure they meet the vehicle manufacturer's specifications, look for cuts, bulges, peeling, uneven wear, and visually assess the degree of tread wear.

2. Check the tire pressure, condition and tread depth. Measure the tread depth across the width of the tire and around the entire circumference.
