Hello again forum, it's been 9 months since I've been Range Rover'less and after regretting the sale of my faultless P38 I'm looking at getting a L322 for lane work and general workhorse stuff. The problem I have is that I'm short on time so I'm not able to spend weeks researching which model...

Now sold.

P38 2.5 DSE, Automatic Gearbox. 129,000 miles. (increasing by about 500 miles a week, this vehicle is my daily driver). 6 months MOT,4 months tax. £4200. Good points: New EAS suspension all round, four new bags, lines, valve block and compressor. Four new Toyo AT tyres. EGR valve removed and...

Thinner oil an option? Mine's got better after a flush and additive but not as quiet as I'd like, I'm soon to flush one more time and possibly try a thinner oil, just not sure how thin to go.

Next month I'll probably be flipping a coin between a L322 and a Cayenne, that's not to say I'll be letting go of my P38,as a 2.5k utility vehicle I don't think I could ask for more.

Bang on the money again Data,cheers. I changed the Britpart plugs for a set of Delphi and on the first starting attempt it fired up instantly :D I've been told the plugs don't get hot enough,even enough,quick enough. When I told this to the seller he said he'd sold thousands of these plugs...

Tested the voltage from the relay to the plugs and I'm getting 10.5 volts ,my battery is reading 12.5v. Is 10.5 volts low enough to cause my starting problem?

My glow plug light stays on for 7 seconds as it always has and this morning it wouldn't start until the third attempt so the problem is getting worse. I replaced the leak off pipes some months ago and there's no air in my feed pipe. I guess now I need to test the voltage going to the plugs so...

Recently had a problem with my glow plugs with 2 weeks of difficult starting,after fitting 6 new plugs (Britpart) my starting problem has now changed. When I start from cold it doesn't fire at all no matter how long I turn the engine,it's like the plug relay is asleep because if I reset the...

Just put some AT's on my daily driver P38 2.5,I've joined GLASS and Trailwise but as yet haven't got anybody to go laning with :confused: If anybody on here is willing to show me the basics of laning on a few runs I'd be appreciative,I'm between south Nott's and north Leic's.

So because my engine was running and I got the click this would mean my compressor is ok?

Tested my aircon compressor today or at least attempted to as my aircon is not working. Gave it a direct feed from the battery and all it did was 'click' ,it didn't come to life at all other than the relay sound,does this point the finger towards or away from the compressor and where should my...

My Alarm is being triggered after being sat for an hour or two,the alarm sounds for about 10 seconds then goes silent,when I return and turn on the ignition I'm given a 'ALARM TRIGGERED,R/H FRONT DOOR' message,I'm aware it's my drivers door but not sure where the micro switch is or why it's...

I recently blanked off my EGR valve,on my usual 30 mile mostly A road run with cruise set at 70 mph the computer was saying my MPG was 26,with my EGR blanked it now says 29 MPG on the same run at the same speeds,I know as MPG reading the computer doesn't read true but as a increment of measure I...

Regular oil changes with a good quality oil is all I'd of asked of the previous keeper of my P38,that way my engine would now sound a lot less tappety I think,oh yeah and don't let the valeters wipe the life out of the steering wheel,I don't like pressing buttons to see what they do because the...
