For the steering wheel, try a hard brush and lots of soap…go at it hard. You need lots of foam. Use paper towels to soak up the overflow. You’ll be surprised.
Money is not meant to control people, rather it is meant to be put to work producing more money for you. You cannot build wealth without putting money in its rightful place….
For your brake thing, it's possible they didn't bleed/actuate the ABS motor when replacing the fluid or weren't able to get all the air out of it, I've had exactly what you describe happen on some other cars… go take it on a gravel road and stomp on the pedal at like 10-15mph and get the ABS to actuate for a few seconds, sometimes it firms the pedal right up.
While it has low mileage, I'd get them to do a trans service. It sucks doing the first time on an LR3/L322/RR-S because the OEM pan has the filter built in and no drain plug, and you have to remove a crossmember to get to it and it's overall not fun. Thankfully all of the aftermarket pan/filter kits have the pan and filter separate as well as a drain plug to make future servicing way easier.
Def get the suspension looked at ASAP. Probably a leaking bag or valve. The compressor isn't meant to run that often, and if you don't fix it, it'll burn up and you're looking at an extra several hundred dollars just for the part
I really like this generation of Range Rover. I was looking at getting a supercharged version when I bought my 955 Cayenne Turbo a few years. I think I made the right call because I can barely stand how much work the Cayenne constantly needs. I live in Breckenridge, CO so getting any car work done is a pain. Maybe I just need a car with a warranty lol.
All that being said, I still wonder "what if" when I see one of these Range Rovers driving around.
That compressor running all the time? You're losing pressure somewhere. Take it to another shop – you need to find the leak before you burn it out – otherwise it's the compressor plus whatever component failed.
Before watching the video I suspect that it cost you about 9K to own this vehicle for 6 months! Let me know how close I am and I will watch the video tomorrow! 😉

Lol at Alyssa’s reaction to being asked what she thought of it “ughhh….”
Kyle’s got passione! Bravo. 👏🏻
People like this kill me lol. Just totally okay with getting absolutely raped by a shop.
Glad you have so much money to get a car that is a repair and replace for the RR. They are all bad not worth the cost.

how many cars do you own?
So what's the point, honestly?

Great video.
Do a road trip video with the Leaf!
Range Rovers are just maintenance money pits.

Man, I think the stock 19's are just right for something like this. Perfect amount of sidewall.
There were no Range Rovers for sale in your area? Strange.
So my engine light came on, and it cost me 10.5 k for a cam shaft. I have a 2013

I wouldn't really add any off-road mods imo, put a towbar on it instead and use it as a tower as these are great for this
