Well, now its get strange. the part supplier, Land Rover, claim that these have to be programmed when fitted in before they will work and ARE NOT just plug in and go!!!! Any advise please, I smell a rat here, maybe a dealer just wanting to make a few`quid quick!!

I got the part through our MT dept where I work. We run a few LR`s and so have an account with the local main dealer so Im sure it was supplied as a genuine part through them, just that this particular one is faulty. The fact that it was in a LR parts box but only sealed at one end and also...

Well, I have just tried it again, this time with the engine running (thought it might make a difference!!) but it still wont work so its back to the parts department tomorrow. Should this part be marked up in some way to show as to whether it iss the correct Mhz as previously stated...

HHmmm.....well, just re checked the unit, the only markings are " PA 6 GF 30"!! When I googled that it would appear to identify the plastic that the caseing in made out of!! There is a small green sticker on the front of the unit where the wires clip in and a white rectangular sticker on the...

Hi all, thanks for the replies. the vehicle is a manual so cant check any gear box lights. Battery has drained over night a couple of times but then other times, if left for a week say, in the same place it is fine. How would i check to see that it is a 433Mhz version and not a 315Mhz??? I...

Hi all, can someone please help? I have a 1998 P38 DSE.I have purchased a new RF Receiver from land Rover dealers, part number YWY500170. managed to get the rear compartment cover off with a small struggle and there was the old unit. Great, easy fix, unscrew the grub screw hold the old unit in...

I can recommend Mansfields in Bury st Edmunds, not quite Nofolk I now but near enough!! They have done me some good favours in the past, sometimes not even bothering charging me! An interesting thread this, I`ve been considering doing the same, changing my 98 DSE airbags for Gen2 Arnott...

Hi all, firstly a big thanks to Paddy1 for his PM and info on the brockwells conversion kit. i was wondering if anyone has used the Bearmach kit as this is the one suggested by my local 4x4 place!! It seems abit more expensive than some of the others I have found and I know that if you buy...

Hi all, firstly, many thanks to slippy1701 for taking the time to reply to an email enquirey on the above subject. So...has anybody actually fitted the coils spring conversion? Which kit did you use and at what cost? Are there any noticable differences in handling (soggy into corners!!)...

Hi P38, yes I`ve thought about that but, same as yourself, would like to hear from anyone who has actually, used / got one. Where do they plug into and wouldnt the warning lights and beep still be active?

Well now its got worse!! apart from the EAS playing up and the front passenger door super locking itself and messing up the central locking...now last night the alarm set itself off, I went out and checked, all seemed ok so left the car unlocked, went out this morning to find it had locked...

Hi everyone, first of all, apologies for not replying sooner, been a bit busy. Thanks to everyone for taking the time to reply. Wills...to answer your points, It can happen anytime. It usually goes into the off road setting and has stayed that way for a few days,just showing EAS fault and...

Hi Wills, yes i agree, if it drops to the bumpstops then there HAS to be a fault but i have stood next to the techs when they plugged in the laptop and it didnt show a thing!!! They were equally puzzled and went through it several times step by step explaining each time what each step or button...

Hi all, well after the EAS going wrong for about the 10th time now I am seriously considering going for the option of doing away with the air suspension all together and fitting the coil spring suspension! What really gets me is,how can a vehicle that cost a small fortune when brand new have...

Hi Wills, thanks for the reply, I did a forum search and soon found out it is not an uncommon problem!! I checked out the link you posted, I will try tripping it first by puttting the window down etc. Can the door trim really be removed with the door locked shut and the passenger seat still...

Hi all, have just joined the forums and I have abit of a door locking problem. The front nearside passenger door on my 1998 P38 DSE has locked in the "superlocked" position! The other doors lock and unlock fine with the keyfob and key but there is no movement at all from the N/S/F passenger...
