    Favourite place for mice in P38?

    years ago, a friend leant me space in his backstreet garage so I could work on one of my minis. My concerns about the 'coffee granules' in the sugar were confirmed one afternoon. Never had sugar in coffee again...

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    read the manual and discovered I have cruise control. That works :)

    What mileage is your Range Rover P38 on? (1994 to 2002)

    sounds like 300,000 miles of fun! My 4.6 has 131,000 on it and probably will stay under 140,000 for some time, given the way we (don't) use our cars. I'm still not convinced the motor has oil in it, given that there's none underneath it.

    EAS Fault already!

    give us a clue Dopey! For pities sake! At least the first initial of the name, or give us 100 road names and we'll have some fun searching :D To the knowledgeable ones: I don't suppose the EAS issue could be flat battery related? The first time it came on, the car had been standing for...

    Bluetooth phone/iPod HK?

    well, I guess the Parrot/IPod kit is around £200, fixing the Clarion unit is £100, plus fitting it all. I guess £350.

    Bluetooth phone/iPod HK?

    I have the Clarion heard unit and Harman Kardon system in my RR. I'm missing my handsfree phone kit that I have in the Audi and would like to install something similar. My issue is that the display on the Clarion has failed so I can't use the radio much. Having searched here, I know that I...

    Flat battery tonight. Alarm?

    fair enough. That sounds reasonable. BTW, Datatek, the kit came today - amazingly fast. Must be the French post office wanting to reject anything English asap :D

    Flat battery tonight. Alarm?

    I'm not thick - I bought an old Range Rover :crazy:

    What you getting your baby for X-Mas?

    oops. Mine is getting a new RF receiver. The latest part number. And maybe some picnic tables.

    Flat battery tonight. Alarm?

    mmm, can't really see how unplugging the antenna causes an internal failure in the receiver, but I've ordered the latest part anywhere. Had to use the door code yesterday. Do I shout Bingo when i've had all the problems?

    range rover sport gone bang

    I know (a lot) more about Ducatis than Land Rovers, but this is the sort of issue where (on a Ducati) the manufacturer would supply parts as a gesture of goodwill. This isn't a moving part, or even one that's subject to huge stress. It's a casting that's let go and normally, I'd expect that...

    EAS Fault already!

    I've done about 100 miles today and the fault hasn't recurred so I can't see the fault yet. i guess I'll wait for the cables and read it myself when they come. Dopey, I'm near Kingston, Surrey.

    EAS Fault already!

    Thanks, so who is good in the Surrey area?

    range rover sport gone bang

    surely that casting is supposed to last for the lifetime of the vehicle. It's not something that gets regular wear. I would say that there are grounds to go back to LR.

    EAS Fault already!

    so, error codes as below: F801 FL Signal incorrect F804 FR Signal incorrect F810 RL Signal incorrect F840 RR Signal incorrect F904 Pressure sensor signal constantly high. The garage 'thinks' that the suspension wasn't calibrated properly when the new airbags were put in. Can I get the...

    Flat battery tonight. Alarm?

    haha! I got in! Jumped the RR from the Audi and everything good. Disconnected the blue wire and I might get around to buying the upgraded box. Number 1 problem fixed.

    p38 suspention help needed

    that's a shame. Most of the people on this thread have already given me good advice and I'm very grateful for it. This place is an excellent resource for people owning or thinking of buying a Range Rover.

    Well the auto electrician has been....

    this isn't the same alarm issue I'm experiencing? Difficult to unlock with the remote?
