My Range Rover P38 1998 4.6 HSE (LPG) - my dream motor is a pile of crap!
At 1.30am I stopped at motorwway services (Watford Gap, South Bound) to put air in tyres. Range wouldnt start right next to air pump, queue forming..."Engine disabled" I had already unplugged the RF (both cables)few days earlier from the back shelf, I tried the 1515 code --nothing. I tried the cars code -nothing! I unplugged the battery then on again in position I and tried in position II. WITH THE CODES I TRIED I ONLY HAD 3 CHANCES THEN HAD TO WAIT 30 MINS TO TRY AGAIN WAITING IN THE FREEZING COLD...this took me til almost 3am. in meantime I rang RAC, they tried & couldnt do it, they sent tow truck we tried at other side of services to start it up Guess what ? -Nothing...we drove to the next junction to a lorry park at neaarly 4am it started,
Since I only have one tow to anywhere in the UK with RAC I cannot use them again if this happens, I cant afford to join every breakdown company for this matter....It also happened the other day in Camden, London but this time the 1515 code eventually worked. I had to get private breakdown for a tow when it happened on A1 Scratwood pull in (south bound) when I stopped to take a mobile call...
**** and unreliable piece of crap... a luxury car???? Boolicks!!
"Plastic Static & Stagnant"
Im selling mine ASAP for a Toyota Land Cruiser or Mitsibishi ro Lexus or Merc..i just cant rely on it I should have dumped it when it happened before Xmas with my 6 year old in with freezing weather you cant even put heating on ..luckily I had a sleeping bag in the boot for him (he's ^ years old for fecks sake) **** **** **** **** **** **** **** car !!
Also when the battery was dead You cant open the boot with a Friggin key..I had to get passnegers out of the rear seats, fold seats down (no interior light) at 10.30pm in the snow & freezing cold and take almost all the luggage out through by the rear seats/rear doors to get to the jump leads.....
Whos great idea was that!
S>H>I>T!
A waste of money and a con !
I know all cars have problems but I hate the Range...
Unless someone has any ideas suggestion, im may reconsider (unlikely) but at the mo, I have work appointments where i cant use my own car in case it happens at clients houses, how embarrassing and bang there goes the job cos I look ridiculous!
ANYONE WANA BUY A LPG RANGE?
My neighbour has a 09 Range and his has been back to garage/dealer for problems wait for it..22 times since new!!!!
60 odd thousand pounds for that ...
