Hi, this is a long shot but a few years ago you had problems with a td4 not starting. I was wondering if you found a cure for this as I too am having these probs. any info would be greatly appreciated! Regards Max.

Thanks,going to soak the bolts in plus gas and leave for a week or two. Hopefully they will come off ok after that.

Having read various Internet articles,it seems possible to swap the height sensors from side to side , this then runs on the unused tracks giving a "new" sensor? Is there anything to beware of before starting this ? Does the wiring need changed ? Can you change both the fronts and the rears?(not...

Thats a very good point and worth giving serious consideration to. I would also be wary of the insurance implications as well. And the fact that Land Rover never got type approval for coil springs,just as a 7 seater D2 on retro fit coils is also not type approved. Its all food for thought.

As the guy who wrote this post, I can assure you if I was to do the conversion it would not be a "bodge" job !! All I asked is ,out of the VAST range of genuine Land Rover springs which ones would be suitable for this conversion? If none are suitable then why not say so in a courteous manner?

Wouldn't I be a smartarse if I got "series" springs to fit !!!!:hysterically_laughi:hysterically_laughi But hey, it was only an idea,granted not a well thought out one. :rolleyes:

Hi, I'm considering a coil conversion for my p38. What land rover colour code springs are used? I ask this as I have quite a collection of l/r springs lying around. Cheers

Thanks chaps, I'm going to run the Rangie for a week or so and then take a look at the new list of faults,as I don't know how long they have been in there!

Ok the pic didn't work! Anybody know how to upload a photo from an ipad on to this post? In the meantime here's what it says F8-79 F9-228 FA-0 FB-255 FCC-13 O:FL signal incorrect 1: F8:2_hidden 2:FR signal incorrect 3:F8:8_hidden 6:RR signal incorrect 2: pressure signal constantly high 5:air...

I took a pic of the faults logged but as I only bought the p38 a few months ago ,I don't know how old they are. I have cleared them (hopefully) and will check them again. But with all these valves stuck I take it I need to rebuild the valve block? Hopefully there is a pic attached to this post

Hi, I have a p38 and sometimes after I park it , I come back and it has risen by itself to high setting. When you get in and start it ,it goes back down to standard height. Then sometimes but more rarely it is lower than standard height when I come back to it. These can happen in a space of...

So is that good or bad? Glass half empty type here!

Retested the vcu and it seems ok. So back to the question will a rear diff fit the front?

I must check to see if the propshaft turns as I turn the wheel.

Hi keith, I checked the vcu last month using this method Handbrake on Select neutral Jack one front wheel of the ground Turn the wheel using a breaker bar. My wheel turned quite easily by hand with some resistance but no need for the breaker bar. Certainly a lot easier than the one in...

Hi, My front diff howls like a wolf both on acceleration and over run. Hoping for a cheap fix I changed the oil and hoped for the best but to no avail. The old oil that came out has a lovely silver metallic colour to it. I have found a rear diff from a 4.0l and was wondering if it would fit...

What Saint said !!!

Hi, the motor needs a good service and I was wondering what is the best grade of oil for a high mileage 2.5 DSE ? There's 180k on it . Just want to quieten the rattles! lol.

Ok I have a 97 dse and I like it but it needs constant attention and to my mind looks very bland. I have always admired the classic RR having owned a 3.9 vogue. I find the p38 underpowered,even though it has a tuning box fitted. Its very thirsty for all the performance you get. I also have a...

Cheers guys, I have the use of testbook so can't "set" the values , can only save them when at the correct heights. That's a very useful website !
