    Hard suspension

    Lower pressure=lower ride height, not exactly what you what over rough stuff. You could try running at m/way height, which would give you slightly softer springing, but risk the unside of the car. Unfortunately standard LR airbags use pistons profiles which actually harden the ride as the car...

    P38 - Rear, driverside, squeak!

    Ok chaps/chapesses ideas please! My P38 has developed a low speed squeak from the driverside rear in the last couple of days. Strangely although it can only be heard at low speeds, it is not speed dependent in pitch or frequency, e.g. it doesn't get higher the faster you go, which is what I...

    RR insurance

    Hey fanatic, yeah i just don't get it, mine's usually £375ish (fully comp, protected no claims, P38 DT) suddenly with no reason given it's jumped to just over £1000! whilst quotes from other campanies are still in the £350-400 region.

    RR insurance

    Does anyone know if there might be any particular reason/trend in insurance for my insurance company to more than double my renewal quote? I've 10 years no claims, 1 expired sp30 conviction and I just can't see why it should have suddenly leapt to over £1k in the last 12 months???

    Aircon Leak?

    cheers kds, any idea if there is there way of pressure testing the system, and what pressure it should be? or is a pro job?

    Aircon Leak?

    Hey guys (n gals) need an opinion please. Got a leak from centre front of P38 DT (Manual) somewhere in area of rad, small amounts of clear oily substance. My first thought was MFT from cooler joints but they appear dry. Only sign of any possible seepage seems to be from somewhere along one of...

    P38 oil cooler seal part numbers

    Cheers Irish, I tried the generic o-ring route but although they where the right diameter they were too thick in x-section, so had to take the stealer route, but they were positively unhelpful.

    P38 oil cooler seal part numbers

    Any one know the part number for the oil cooler hose o-ring seals (rad end) on a P38 DT manual, my local stealer seems incapable of working it out!

    P38 headlights

    fleabays probably your best bet, there are usually plenty relatively cheap. at least it wasn't a fog light, their more expensive cause they get broken so often there are fewer around.

    Gearbox oil argument!

    Interestingly although some stores are still selling it, Slick 50 no-longer have a manual gearbox treatment listed as a product, so presumably it was discontinued/withdrawn??
