Hello all - just purchased a 2001 P38 4.6L black on black.
It has about 101k miles on it and has been changed to springs from the airbags. No other known modifications. Engine and transmission seem good, leather and electrics are in good condition. Tiny bit of rust here and there, weird gaskets, small crack in right rear fog light (just epoxied closed today)
Definitely needs new shocks - just bought Terrafirmas and getting them fitted next week. Changing bulbs and wipers. Going to bleed the brake system and change pads and rotors- they feel bumpy, like theres someone pressing back on the pedal intermittently. Not sure if that's air in the system or just bad rotors. Other than that, the only annoyance is that none of the lights in the tailgate (rear fog lamps) do not work at all. found some corrosion in there when fixing the crack in the plastic lens, but no problems inside or with the loom.
The "Telltale" light on the dash for the rear fogs does not light when I press it - usually indicating that the message has been sent to turn them on. Front fogs work. Any ideas for next steps here? Sorry that was a lot of intro.
I also own a 1969 Jaguar E-type (Black on Black) , a 1994 BMW E34 (White on Tan) and also a 1995 BMW E34 (Black on Black).
