Thanks guys. Both really useful info. Ovalandrover, when you say replace the seals on the axle is that on the inboard side? When I remove the axle will any fluid drain as Holiday chicken suggests? Otherwise sounds fairly straightforward (famous last words!) if seals are needed do you know what...

Hi guys, Need some help with changing a cv joint on a 1998 P38 2.5DSE. I have searched the threads bug can't find any step by step advice on how to do this. Can anyone give me any tips. Can this be done by someone with a midicome of common sense and some spanners? Many thanks for any help...

Cheers Hope you have a good one too!:5bcheers2:

Just had mine MOT'd too. Only advisory on brake pads and a cheap clip on one of the gators. Amazing!

Cheers guys, That is a relief to think that I may not need to remove it. Will look at the filler pipe etc after the celebrations and hang over have diminished later.

Oh just read Saint V8's post. Mine is a 1998 2.5 DSE with a fuel leak!

Hi all, I have filled the car up today with diesel and have found fuel leaking over the rear box of the exhaust. It is definately fuel and enough to cause concern. Is there any tips on removing the tank. I am fairly proficient in using spanners but not a mechanic, although have managed to...

Seemed to have a good green idle when I did it. Although at times when I checked the fault codes it turned red and stayed red. Thought it was something it does when fault codes have been checked.

Yes I tried that and that is why i am thinking front bag. Seemed ok before I did the rear ones. The rear ones looked original and the front ones look fairly old. What would make one think valve block? I.e. What would you notice? I have had some fault codes that say valve open or closed but that...

I have been out now and checked the actuator arms. Nothing obvious! Managed to get it rising and falling on the easunlock but very very slow to rise. Have looked at her now and she is sitting down on the front offside corner. I have checked the pump and there is good input and output. I am...

Cheers both. I will look at that. Makes sense I guess. Will let you know what happens but just tried to start the bus and she is just sitting on the bump stops and don't move. Bit of head scratching later is in order I think. Thanks again.

Hi all, Just getting in touch and hope you can shed some light on a problem I have with my suspension. I have just changed my rear air springs because the rear offside bag was completely shot. Decided to do both because I felt it would be best. Got them changed with the help of some really...

Well if we judge the posts placed on this site one would imagine that passing your MOT first time would be nothing short of a miracle. Well mine did and not only am I surprised , I now love it all the more for it. :crazy_driver:

Thanks Wammers

Hi all, I have a 1998 P38 2.5 DSE auto and when I select Drive or Reverse it stalls. If I put my foot down hard it doesn't. Any idea why? Cheers Rob

Hi everyone, Finished the vcu exchange and everything seems fine. In fact she seems to be running much better, steering, acceleration, etc. I am guessing that some of the power output from the engine with a seized vcu goes in to pushing the whole vehicle along thus losing torque. Does that...

Cheers guys. Will have a look.

I have spent all of my wedding anniversary under the Range fighting with the VCU housing and all the other things that go with that. Still haven't finished!!

Thanks will get a new one. Any suggestions from who?

Thanks if it is a matter of tapping out the vcu then the seal looks sound. Many thanks:)
