Alrighty! Misfires reported for cylinders 2 and 3, the MAF seems faulty (even though I've already cleaned it) and the catalytic converter is not enjoying life at the moment. I expect it could be much wor... oh crap, I've gone and jinxed it now!

Diagnostic read it is then. It's understandable that people don't list their locations. Personally I really don't worry about listing it as anyone trying to nick "No Problem" would have a devil of a time getting it to work ... let alone getting it out of the country ;)

Irishrover: It's a 4.0 petrol and it was imported from the US. I was hoping to avoid visiting a garage that has a scanner but it's starting to look like the only sensible option. Woogoo: The airfilter did have a bit of ash in it but not nearly enough ;) The paintwork isn't as fresh as it was...

Hi everyone! My P38 is acting up again. This time the idle is rough and it stumbles whenever I press the accelerator more than "lightly". I've already cleaned the MAF. I pulled three plugs at random and all were orange. Today this problem got worse as the 'service engine soon" message...

I gave mine a thump a couple of months ago... and it's lit up every time since.

hehe, maybe 'liked' is a bit strong and 'tolerated' is probably a fairer description.

Well... I did actually like my 1.8 Freelander ;)

My father was a Land Rover enthusiast and his father before him so it seems to be a heriditary condition. A couple of months ago I traded my Citroen C2 Vts in for a dark green P38 SE 4.0 '00, 82k miles. Maybe it wasn't a very sensible choice but it was the only car I could get at the...
