Does anybody have any idea which supplier is good for replacement compressor seal’s? Mine had been working ok for about 8 years but getting a bit slow to pump up. I think I got the last one from Landyair on Ebay so I got another one from them. I lasted only a few weeks before it failed on the...

Here is an update on my tyres:- I decided to go for Michelin Latitude Cross. I bought some 16” rims off eBay and took them to the Wheel Specialist at Chester. They refurbished the wheels and fitted my new Latitude Cross tyres. So after a few hundred miles this is what I think compared with the...

If you take the pressure pipe off the sensor with the engine stopped there should be gas pressure there. If not one of the gas valves is not opening or you have a blockage. You can also get the LPG ECU software from Ebay - Romano = LPG,GPL,CNG Programming Interface Tuning Kit laptop connection...

The Wrangler tyre is the quietest according to the new tyre specs

Thanks for your replies. I dont think that the Nexen can be used on 16" rims the load index is 106 not 109. Datatek looks like you have them on 18" rims which fit Nexens with the correct load index. My new (scrap yard) 16" wheels arrived today as nobody is saying anything bad about the...

Hello All Its time to replace the tyres on my 2002 P38 Vogue SE. My current tyres are Continental 4X4 Contact they have lasted very well but do tramline. I would like the ride to be a bit smoother so I am taking the opportunity and going down from the 18” wheels to 16”. The tyres I am looking...

Hello All I have had my 2002 vogue se for 3.5 years I have improved it over the years but have one fault left which you may be able to help me with. I have a vibration or resonance at exactly 1100 RPM and 1900 RPM. The car sounds harsh when you pass through 1100 and 1900. It is only very slight...

I have cured the whine on my 2002 P38 vogue se. So it is about time I shared the results. See my previous post – http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f10/2002-p38-whine-121638.html I first thought it was the Auto Box because the sound appeared to come from the bell housing so I changed the box +torque...

Hello All I fitted:- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/8-CAR-REVERSING-PARKING-SENSORS-4-FRONT-4-REAR-w-Buzzer-/190271155801?ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:GB:1123 They work very well but a little bit too sensative. The front ones can go off when there is nothing there especally when there is wet on the...

Thanks for your replies. I do not think it is missing on a cylinder but it is a good idea I will check it out. Torsional vibration damper - Is that the crankshaft pulley? can they fail? I cannot see the engine shake if I rev it up but I do need to get someone to do it while in drive and holding...

I have a 2002 P38 4.6 which has a resonance or vibration at 1100 RPM it starts at 1000PM reaches a maximum at 1100RPM then is gone by 1200RPM. It can be felt in neutral or park with no load on the engine but becomes a lot more noticeable when the engine is under load. I thought it might be the...

Hello All Can anybody please tell me the stall test RPM for a late 4.6 P38. The reason I ask is that I am trying to diagnose a whine from the transmission. I have used an electronic stethoscope which points to the bell housing area. A stall test gives me 2500 RPM in forward and reverse. The...

The P38 uses auto transmission fluid in the Transfer Box there are no clutches in there apart from the viscous coupling which is sealed from the oil. The only reason I can think of for using ATF is to reduce friction giving lower operating temperature and improved MPG. I think my next test will...

Hello All I have a 2002 vogue SE which I have owned for eight weeks. It is my first Range Rover and I am very pleased with it apart from one very annoying fault that I hope you can please help me with. It was purchased as a very low millage car at just 26K miles. I did contact the original...
