    Towing with an auto...

    Hi all just after a bit of advice... Used the new L322 (4.4 V8) to tow the horse trailer for the first time yesterday - this is also the first time I have towed with an auto.... There were times when the gearbox seemed to struggle to decide what to do - for example 50mph cruising it was...

    Xenons?

    Hi all another L322 question, sorry Does anybody know if a UK 2003 L322 Vogue would have Xenon/HID headlights as standard? Or were they an option? Are the headlights completely different between the two, or is it just a case of different bulbs and ballast units etc. for the HID? Tried...

    Diagnostic tools

    Hi all I am close to taking the plunge and getting an L322 to replace my trusty P38. I am keen to arm myself with a diagnostic tool from day 1, but cannot find a decent thread on here discussing the various options. Can somebody point me to one? If there isn't one, then perhaps this should...

    Tinted windows

    As I ponder further whether to swap the P38 for an L322, I can't help but noticing how many L322s have hideous blacked out windows. Some even have it on the front side windows... As if they weren't drug dealerish enough, people go and do that to them too..... So my question - can these...

    Suspension stuck in 'road'

    Hi, I am considering a cheapish L322, the seller says the suspension is stuck in 'Route' (French) - I presume it would be 'Road' in a UK one... Any thoughts as to what this might be caused by? Any simple checks I can do to investigate if I go to look at the car? The price is low because of...

    Where to after the P38?

    Hi all just interested to hear your thoughts on something I have been mulling over for a while... ...my P38, although it's had some issues, has in the 18 months I have owned it so far been great. The hassle compared with some Jap alternatives more than outweighed by its sheer competence as...

    That old BMW lump isn't so bad...

    Just got back from a bit of a tour this weekend, Dordogne to Caen then Portsmouth to Teignmouth, then Teignmouth to Norwich, then (now with horse trailer attached) back to Dordogne! About 2,500km all told. P38 didn't miss a beat. 27.5 mpg without the trailer (cruising 75ish), 19.5 with...

    Crafty solutions for getting oil into gearbox and transfer box...

    Hi all, need to check and maybe top up the oil in my transfer box and manual gearbox. The filler for the gearbox is hard to get to - I need to somehow squirt the oil into it - are there any crafty tools or homebrew solutions for doing this? Cheers Jerry

    2.5DT starting problem - different this time...

    Hi just wondering if anybody has come across this before: Occassionally (happened twice in about 2K miles) my P38 will not start when hot - engine turns over very quickly, and rev counter bounces around all over the place, but no hint of it starting. Leave it 5 minutes, and it behaves as it...

    A well deserved thank you...

    .... to Keith (Datatek). Just finished changing all four airbags in my P38, using his guide, which was excellent. I even bought some welding rods especially (I don't have a welder ;-) ) Despite having aluminium bottoms to my old bags they all came out easily, I think my car (LHD) has spent...

    Another alarm thread, sorry....

    Hi all Have had the blue wire disconnected on my P38 for several weeks now and it does seem to have cured the battery going flat problem - phew! However, like many P38s, mine occasionally loses synch with the remote (remote stops working) and I need to use the EKA to start the car. Usually...

    Air con fans...

    Just had the aircon regassed and, much to my surprise, it now works (for the first time since I got the car almost a year ago)! Big question of course is how long will it stay working for..... One question though - I have noticed the aircon fans aren't running even though the aircon is...

    What is clockwise?!?

    Hi, feel a bit dumb asking this, but can't find the definition in RAVE When RAVE says turn the engine clockwise; is this clockwise looking at the front of the engine, or clockwise as if sitting in the driver's seat? I have found the definition for left and right in RAVE, but not clockwise...

    Other jobs while it is in bits ... intercooler, aircon

    Hi I decided to pull the front out of my P38 to get to the aux belt tensioner as it is a good opportunity to get some overdue jobs done. First was replacing the oil cooler; turns out it is not leaking at all; the oil drips seem to be coming from the intercooler input rubber hose connection. A...
