Newbie, recent d4 purchase questions

Have recently bought a 2015 d4 to replace my Isuzu Dmax. Enjoying it so far but have a couple of questions....

It currently has a brink removable towbar (haven’t tried it yet) and I’ve briefly read about them being recalled. I tow a big trailer fairly often so would like to swap to fixed so I can use my ball and pin hitch, are land rover still replacing them?

It currently has 12n/12s towing electrics and I would like to change to a 13pin setup, can I just buy the end section of cable with plugs? Possibly vplat0136? Would it need recoding to 13pin?

As I go over any bumps/potholes I get a noticeable click from the top of the dashboard, are there any common things that cause it?

Finally, it appears to have a rusty-ish spacesaver spare tyre, is it possible to fit a full size spare in the recess underneath?

Hello and welcome

Fixed towbar are better , LR only replaced those that had worn crossmembers

Yes the end can be swapped and yes there is a ccf setting for both, not sure not changing it will have any effect though

Not heard of a dash rattle Confused

Yes full sized wheels fit in the spare location Thumbs Up
