well its only been 6 months but without regret i'm gonna sell the rangie(of problems),it has without question been the worst pile of sh@t i've ever had the misfortune of owning,not even really that comfy compared to a cruiser or a patrol for that matter,slow even chipped,so poorly made you have...

whats been your prob,mine popped a gearbox fault up today,but you have me worried as i been feeling like my truck is sluggish around 45-50 and i have to give it plenty of boot once its in top gear to get it to pull.

i feel your pain same happened to me a month back i was going on holiday to,that intercooler hose sounds like prime suspect to me,i had same symptoms but my turbo was cooking,i think i have fixed it,parts used thermostat (running cold),air filter(black with bird feathers in it),it would seem the...

i'd give maybe £500 quid if he's gonna throw in a migatronic welder:rolleyes:,its worth what ever your prepared to pay for it,the guy must have a figure in his head,cars that have stood normally show there faults after car has been driven a bit so dont pay too much! good luck.

if you can weld or know a freind who can then i would say build the gear yourself,you get exactly what you want and normally better quality.some aftermarket stuff is just cack!

no but i'll keep looking at your post for help to,i did buy a gas it yourself kit and it revealed my system is over pressurised so i could not add any gas.

trying to find if there is a record for suffering owning a p38,had mine since feb and have stopped counting how much dough i've spent on the b.o.s,and the abuse my yota pals have thrown at me.they now kinda respect how much the thing has put me through,respect to those who have lasted longer...
