Fixed !!! - Sorry just had a message about my issue and realised I forgot to post about the solution to my issue. My car has been fixed and daily driven since feb/March without issue. So if anyone is interested or is having the same problem. The cause of my issue was one of the solder...

Grrrrr - I haven’t had too much of a play with the nanocom but will try and work out how to do a datalog onto an sd card. Im sure there will be a write up or video knocking about somewhere if I can figure it out. once again thanks to everyone for all the help and suggestions. on a side note...

Datatek - the battery came with a sticker on it stating not to charge so I didn’t charge it before fitting. I purchased it from battery mega store as suggested in other threads/posts. Should I try charging it or possibly contact battery mega store and see what they say.

Hi. I have just fitted a brand new hankook 1000ah battery. The voltages from the nanocom readings are with the ignition on not running. I would assume the new battery isn’t dead out of the box? What should a good battery read? I have also changed the regulator for the uprated one as suggested...

Update - I have now purchased a nano com to try and get to the bottom of this fault as even after speaking to several p38/Land Rover specialists/garages they all seem to say replace this/that which i have already done. The readings were as follows. (These were after driving the car so not...

Update - Hi. Sorry for the delay getting back with an update. Been rather busy with work etc. I have replaced the regulator with the one recommended (thanks datatek) I then checked the voltages and they were as follows Battery (With Key Off) - 12.58v Key On & Glowplug Light On - 11.57v Key...

Would this be the correct regulator? Or does it have to have the i at the end like suggested by datatek? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172938221561?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=NxD02QIRSMy&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=N3YT6ZcTRc2&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Thanks for the replies chaps. I’ll recheck the voltage when running and also before starting/glow plugs on etc tomorrow. Looks like the regulator upgrade is the way forward to rule out another possible cause. It’s just funny how it repeats the same sequence every three starts even after a long...
