Have you tried resynching it ?

I still remain to be convinced that it can can be made to work with a P38, so hopefully someone will manage it this time !

The software normally comes bundled in with the leads, but you can download one of the more popular packages here: EasyObdII - ScanTool.net OBD-II Elmscan Interface Software (Powered by CubeCart) There are literally hundreds of freeware OBD2 packages out there, this is just one of them.

According to the manual, there are three special LR tools that you need, LRT-12-108, LRT-12-117 and LRT-12-119. By looking at it, I think you may be able to get away without the first two but it looks to me at least, that you definitely need the third one to remove the pully. I would suggest...

We went through this a while back, I said at the time that I didn't think that there was any generic OBD2 compatable interface software in the P38 ECU's but a couple of people then mentioned that they'd managed to make it all work on their P38's. Anyway, this was the topic...

Just got my 1999 DSE back from the local diesel specialist in Bridport after it's latest breakdown yesterday. Apparently the in-tank fuel pump is duff, but the actual problem was that a priming bulb had been fitted under the bonnet, presumably because the pump had failed. Unfortunately the...

It kinda depends on what size tyres and wheels you have .......

Went out this morning and exactly the same thing happened ... so onto the RAC again. This time however I made sure I checked everything as it happened and the only dash lights on were the oil-pressure and the ignition light. The RAC man checked everything again, the EasyStart trick didn't...

Didn't notice the injector light but that doesn't mean it wasn't on as I stupidly didn't check the lights before trying to restart the engine. I do know it hadn't idled since I left home, so not sure about that one. It does have a powerchip, the type that replaces the prom inside the Bosch ECU...

So, there I was happily driving down the road in my 1999 DSE Auto on the way to the dentist when with no warning the engine just stopped having covered 5 miles since leaving home. As I glided gently to the kerb, the message "Gearbox fault" flashed through the display. Of course it...

Does it have a FSH and is it registered before 1st March 2001 for cheap(er) road tax ?

All of the following IMHO .... but .... (a) The RR looks way overpriced at £6800 - £7000. (b) The respray adds nothing to the value, I would expect decent paint on a RR of that age, in fact I'd be more worried as to why it had to be resprayed. (c) 154k is a lot of miles, especially...

There's a link to a keypad repair kit above .....

During cranking where it won't start, is it a totally dead crank or is it firing but not catching? If it's a dead crank, next time it stalls and won't restart, whip out a spare spark plug from your pocket (it's a P38 - surely you carry a spare everything?), plug one of the HT leads into it...

It says that the car is in Leeds and needs to be collected from there if you read down the description. £4k is a pretty OK price for that spec, if it's as good as it appears then it would be a good deal. However, you may get it cheaper by just snipe-bidding on it with a maximum bid of £4k (if...

All the P38 kits I've seen come with a little box of electronics to fool the ECU into thinking everything is OK so maybe the Classic kits are the same ?

Slight side-track here ... are Landrover 4U in Honiton a decent independent LR garage as they're only about 30 miles from me in Bridport, and I desperately need to know where my nearest half decent independent is? Thanks, Brian

I resynched my remote by following the instructions here: Replacement and Reprogramming the BeCM, Locks, Remotes, or ECM Worked straight away for me with no problems at all. Regarding your button problems, you can buy repair kits on eBay for about £10 which may solve all your button...

On mine, the buttons on the left change band/cd track etc., the buttons on the right change volume. Are they just swapped over on your new steering wheel because that could indicate a wiring/connection fault ?

Somewhere in the system there must be a balance pipe between each "saddle bag" otherwise how does the fuel get used evenly from both sides? That would seem to imply that you only need access to the contents of one of the "saddle bags" to be able to empty them both? That being the case, why...
