Appologies for the late response. Ok, got the ratio motor from the states (was cheap to begin with but customs decided they wanted there share so ended up forking out £120). Anyway, swapped in over but doesn't seem have changed although when you do changed from high to low, the low ratio side of...

turns out it was a bulb. Correct wattage and volts but slight rust around contact. Replaced and 'bingo'. Worked straight away. Just as a precaution, i cleaned the bulb holder and lubricated with the old vaselene. Couldn't find the earth on the body have just left it. Anyway, all's working so...

hi, Anyone else had this annoying problem. Turn the off side indicator on, works for the first few flashes then 'Bulb failure' warning comes on message board. Tap the indicator lense and it works again. Go over a bump, it goes off. The small side indicator and rear indicator still flash. I've...

Damn, forgot about that. Thought i was going too well. No symbol on the dash, no noise from the motor and no flashing when you change from high to low. So, i think no. I have the hi-low motor on order from the states so should arrive any day now so will see if that works. BUT STILL HAPPY

:):):):):) As promised, an update. All's well with the range rover. Changed the transfer box ecu under the passenger seat with a secondhand one and 'BINGO'. Message in info panel 'Select Neutral' has gone. (don't know if this was a good thing as now i can see how many mpg i'm getting = no a...

Had a look on the Range Rover p38 common problems site and yes, the transfer case ecu is a known failure item. So. i'll start off with that (they are cheap on ebay) and go from there. The weekend is fast approaching so time to get underneath again and see it i can do anything with the ratio...

Is this the same for an P38 automatic with the same problem??

Been searching the internet and read a few other peoples problems with changing gears etc, and a number all seem to come up with the same theories i.e replacement of the 'xyz' switch and/or change the ratio motor which changes from hi/low ratio. Would this be a feasible place to start??

Just been out to the car. Started it up and did as suggested in your previous post. The low ratio side of the gear selector continued to flash in different gears for approx 5 mins without going out (also no flashing gearwheel symbol on the dash....having a look in the manual i don't think i have...

Just tried what you suggested. Unfortunately still the same. The "Select Neutral and Slow Down" messages go out but come back on again after a few seconds. I didn't hear any beeping either when i transfered from high to low and vice versa althrough the low ratio side of the "H" gear selector did...

Hi, Any help or advice would be appreciated. Possible underlaying problems with my gearbox/transfer box?? Gearbox screams to around 4500 revs before it changes for 3rd to 4th. I have a sports button (i know this only lets the engine rev higher before changing gears) but when pressed, it lights...

Blocked pipe off, didn't make a different so still no cruise control, but it did make a difference to the acceleration and gear changes (automatic). Seemed to be a lot smoother and quicker (although, that could of been down to being really cold this morning)

Thanks for that. Replacing the pipes haven't cured the problem yet although blanking the extra connection may stop extra air being sucked into the system allowing it to work properly. I'm now thinking that this cruise control part is from another range rover model

Hi, Cruise control not worked since i bought the car so after reading the comments on the forum decided to replaced the existing cracked vacuum pipes with new ones, but in doing so, i noticed that i may be missing a pipe with no idea where it goes to. Any help would be apreciated. I have a...

fixed the leak
