Do you have the original radio or have you swapped it.
On the discovery 3 radio you could add in Bluetooth, wonder if it could be done to the p38

I simply swapped the radio for a modern unit, gaining the microphone for calls as well and then traded the old unit for some bits.
There is a mod on the YouTube that is a little more involved than I wanted to be.

I just use a little FM transmitter plugged into the phone, choose a channel on the radio that is free, works a treat, full bandwidth unlike bluetooth

I have a P38a 4.0 L thor that I took off the road almost 2 years ago as I needed to run from North East of UK to South East weekly for a year and economics said get a cheap diesel. I had heat problem when the water pump went and I had no choice but to drive it in short spells then let it cool down to get home. I will need to do a rebuild or replace it and wonder does the 4.6 thor need the matching ECU or will the original 4.0 one be ok?

GEMS has a setting for 4.0 or 4.6, but cannot find anything in the Nanocom for Thor ??
Either the original Thor ECU might learn the new engine behaviour, or it will under/over fuel because the firmware is wrong !!
Best talk to one of those ECU specialists.

I think it will just adjust itself and work.
You do have change the gearbox settings to use a different tune
