well done and best of luck for the future

have learned that when you own a rangey,insulating tape,silicone and a bloody big hammer will become your new best friends

hi bill,was in much the same boat as yourself.i only took on my expensive mistress in april:D and as you say,they kind of do something for you that makes you want to return the favour;);) hopefully i have the old girl performing again,as she is now back on the streets anyway.:rolleyes: hope you...

have come to the conclusion that having a p38 is like having a boil on your bum::( you know its there but learn to live with it rather than face the fear of having it lanced:eek::eek:

but look on the bright-side if i had been driving a sh*gun or god forbid,a trooper:eek::eek: then i would not have discovered this site and gotten all the wonderful hints and advice:p:p so there must be something to the rangey after all:5bcheers2:

had a problem with my 4.0 recently.would rev to about 2000rpm and then started to missfire and would not pass 2500,as though it was hitting a limiter.tried lamba sensors,disconnecting maf sensor,it turned out to be a broken pin on flywheel and crankshaft sensor replaced.that was 9 days ago and...

what:eek: you mean there really are some things cheap for a rangey apart from the driver :):p

but is that not the sheer joy of a rangey,:p:p not knowing what to replace next:doh::doh:

:D spoken like a man of wisdom and experiance :):)

can i now relax for a while,or do i have to be on my gaurd for the next wee hiccup from solihulls finest?:p:p

:D:p hi gav,did you not know that a week is a lifetime of greying,ageing and worrying when you have a p38,not to mention the bank balance:eek::eek:

:D:D:D well lets keep it plain & simple:p heads skimmed,head gaskets fitted,new camshaft sensor,new plugs,new leads,new crankshaft sensor,broken pin on flywheel sorted air,oil and fuel filters changed :eek::eek::eek: a baptism of fire,but now running around for a full week without problems:D:p:D...

glad too see you got her going again:D:D:D happy days:clap2::clap2:best of luck to you for the future and many happy miles:D:5bparty:

:eek:am now going to wash my hands of it,will take it to main dealer:eek::eek:on monday morning and dump her on there door until problem is sorted:doh: i can no longer afford to be without a car and if it is going to be a wild expensive job then i will have the last laugh on her....:D:D:D...

need to look back occaisionally to see if she is still laughing at me,i will approach her early on sunday morning and that should shock her back into life

will try again 2morrow,i need to walk away from her for a while,but i will be back......
