A huge amount frustrating issues still not solved on my P38 DSE

Spooner · Jan 19, 2011

Hey Guys

If anyone can shine light on any of my 1999 2.5 DSE P38's issues it would be great. So here we go:

Engine seems to pull fine, but gearbox always changes at 3100rpm in normal and sports mode it never changes over 3100rpm - no faults are coming up (tried fixing)
I have a leak at the top right of the windscreen... (windscreen seal?)
My Sat Nav screen always flickers for some reason
The subwoofer thumps when indicators are on

There are other issues, but any help on the above first would be great!

Thanks

cant help with most things but re your sub woofer it could be an earth prob
but if you wait long enough
someone will come along who has already had and fixed your probs

Have you tried changing the gearbox oil? Simply flushing the old oil through generally alleviates errounous gear changes... something to do with either increased viscosity of older oil, or particles in the oil inhibiting sensors or something like that...

No I haven't tried that to be honest!

Will put that on my to do list.
