Adam, Did you get this sorted? I've got to put the letters back on my new lower tailgate but I do have the old one here to copy. IIRC you aren't far away so you'd be welcome to come and have a look. David

I'll drag this back up as its on the to do list. Changing the connectors shouldn't cause an issue should it?

Got it out in the end, wasn't being brutal enough! One useful thing is that there is a reset button by the main volume knob. On a classic you have to remove the knob and peel away the trim from that bottom corner. Hopefully that will get rid of my cd error code and get it working again.

Rear side windows apparently. I've asked for a set but they need to make more so I'm still waiting to hear. Hoping they do the job. They have been NLA for ages and other rubber co have said it wasn't wroth paying for the tooling.

Have you had any issues keeping the ali top tailgate closed? I'm really struggling. The steel one was badly corroded but did stay shut!

Tapping cam follower on one cylinder. It was covered but the exhaust manifold blowing! Very quiet when cold but taps a bit when warm. I imagine the cam could do with replacing so followers, rocker gear etc. In itself it doesn't mean rebuilding the engine but it might be worth investing a bit in...

I need to replace the front LR mats as they are very tatty. I can find full sets but has anyone bought just the front (or back) from anywhere? Or has anyone got a decent front pair they don't want? Cheers

I need to get the Clarion hu out of my soft dash but I can't seem to. Best I can find on line is this for a p38 radiolcd its the same hu so I assume it comes out the same way but at the moment no amount of wiggling i those 2 holes seems to get me any closer to getting it out. Any suggestions?

If I wanted a rebuilt, turnkey V8 where should I look and what should I expect to pay? Could I drop in a TVR version or would that just not work without changes? For a classic RR as my 4.2 may need some work it seems.

Kevin, I've replied via ebay. Please let me know when more are available. Thanks

Thanks. It would just have been too easy!

Hi, Just wondered if early discos have the same seat ecu as late classics or at least one that might give some function back. When did discos start to get all electric adjustment and heating elements? Cheers David

Can anyone tell me if P38 fans AC fans in front of the condensor are the same as soft dash classic ones? There are lots of p38 parts out therte fairly cheaply but classic bits look knackered and expensive. How easy is it to replace air suspension bags? One back one needs doing (only lasted 8...

Hope for the best and prepare for the worst!

Not entirely sure but it won't be cheap as its a lot of work. I haven't seen the car since June! Last time I saw it it had no interior at all, just a bare shell and a whole lot of wires. The cost isn't so much the issue but I'm of the opinion that if a classic hasn't been apart it will be rusty...

Have you got Rave? Try here land rover rave technical system workshop manuals you can't be without. I'm assuming it won't turn over at all rather than spins but won't start. If the latter you might suspect the fuel pump.

Danny, Speak to these guys Lloyd Specialist Developments | Engineering Professionals | Automotive Enthusiasts as they are doing exactly that sort of repair on mine as we speak. Not pretty but it has to be done. Whether they will do it again might be another matter.

My LSE has run nearly 80k on LPG. I don't really notice much difference between petrol and gas apart from the cost. If you LPG it put the tanks underneath as the boot tanks look a bit grim. But this conversion isn't cheap as you need a new petrol tank too. Last time I looked it was about £2k...

I saw that on the auction site and thought it looked interesting. It might be worth speaking to Damon at Kingsley Cars as I believe he was involved with OF before it turned into a bling bodykit outfit. He's a nice bloke and its worth a chat.

No brake light just abs and tc. There is a sound missing from the usual ones when starting the car so clearly the pump isn't running. I've dug out the relays and I'll try the diagnostic port tomorrow. Is it clipped into the row of relays or just lying about?
