Need to get my hands on a front passenger door central locking mechanism for a 1995 P38A 4.6. Seems like I'm looking for rocking horse s..t, but u never know, someone might have one sitting on a shelf gathering dust?? If the chassis number is needed, have got it.:search:

Guys, Every now and then, the range decides it wont let me in - if I unlock it with remote, it then locks its self straight away. Unlock, it locks, unlock, it locks. Occasionally it will trigger the alarm once I've got in, then I press the remote to unlock and it stops - what is going on with...

When you say "solid" do you mean cannot depress the brake pedal, or solid as in great brakes. If it was just me in the car, wouldn't be so concerned, not that it's a good thing to drive with dodgy brakes, but brakes can fail at any time. But a fair amount of time, my son is with me and that's...

Providing the roads are empty and I come across no red lights or 90 degree bends, should be there by morning. Perhaps a re-enactment of "speed" - the P38 Solution. Could be a box office sell out - lol

I'm in Poole in Dorset, although the motor is currently out of operation as it is currently brakeless

apparently he used the land rover diagnostics which itself caused problems - when he plugged in, it said the car was a classic and not a P38 - anyone wanna buy a classic P38 - lol Because of this, he then took it to an associate that currently works with LandRover to diagnose

because no fault codes came up! the 3 lights came on but no fault codes. I had the same thing with the EAS pump, lost total use of the air suspension, but no fault code, so bought a new eas pump, installed, and away we went again - but this problem is a real **** of a problem!!!!! I seem to...

I am coming to my whits end with my P38, and possibly my mechanic. 2 or 3 weeks ago the "3 amigos" came on and stayed on. It's the abs pump I'm told - replaced pump with a "quality" used one with 3 month warranty. Still the lights are on? Suggested that maybe the accumulator was faulty as...

Dont slate me for what I don't know, but my "mechanic" has advised to disengage the 4 wheel drive temporarily as the viscous coupling is locking up - which may be one of the many reasons as to why I'm having the "3 amigo" issue, as wel as now changing the ECU and another switch which will...

Hi, The guy I use used to work for Land Rover so I can only assume he knows the right procedures.

Yes, 3 - 4 times over a period of 1 hour so I was told.

sorry about this, one other thing is if the car is left over night, the lights go out when I start up in the morning. If I then use the car at lunch, they stay on????????

also, despite it being a pump in good working order, and a new accumulator, it continues to run rather than switch off, why coud this happen? Would the fault codes be doing this?

definately a hiss, I expect I have become paranoid about it. On the subject of the abs. when my mechanic friend replaced the pump, the 3 lights went out, as soon as it was reversed out of the premises, they came on again. It's baffling the hell out of him as to why they wont switch off? The...

Thanks guys, it's been doing my nut after spending a few too many pennies - I'll get the codes read tomorrow and cleared - hopefully that will be the end of that. One other thing though, and please, no mention of snakes in the footwell as I don't do mechanics, just pay the bills. When I...
