Hi,

I know I’ve been busy with the L322 of late and have a take of jobs to do to get the P38 back on the road but I’ve just been told that there are a couple of outstanding recall campaigns on the beastie.

Do do A255 or A359 mean anything to any of you ? (Other than them being toads somewhere 😂)

I thought I’d ask before I incur the scorn of my local dealer -who, I think, have no technicians that have ever worked on a P38 !

Cheers

Bob
 
I’m not sure of the recall numbers above but the info should be available somewhere. I remember the one about the hi/low plastic cam lobe which I posted on here and there was a weird one couple years back about recalling for winches that no one seemed to have fitted - Stank of scam that one did.

Probably a mistake. Mine had some so I went down the Stealers and it was to do with the factory fitted Warn winch. Well, there was no sign of 1 ever being fitted so they just corrected it.
 
Yeah, I think quite a few on here had mysterious fires shortly after they gave up on the EAS.

Mysterious fires in the ashtray?

Reason for recall​

There is a possibility that a short circuit may occur in the cigar lighter bulb holder when the vehicle lighting system is operated.

How to check if the vehicle is recalled​

Contact the local LAND ROVER dealership or manufacturer. You will not need to pay for anything involving the recall.

How the manufacturer will repair​

Disconnect the illumination feed to the lighter and remove the bulb.

Number of affected vehicles​

1097
 
My 1998 says it is prone to cooling system leaks ... says they will replace all the hoses for me :) How do you find out if a car ever got fixed (JLR dealer, i guess),,, and would they honour it after all this time?
