    Wandering Steering

    My 2001 DHSE on brand new pirellis (zeros i think) wore them out on the outside edges in under 4,000 miles. Car was tramlining on nearside lane of motorway in particular, where rutted by lorries and awful to drive, constant correction needed. I took it in to a good local independent tyre...

    Newbie P38 owner with my first "leaky" problem.....

    I would definitely look at the pollen filter covers under the bonnet, 1 each side just below the air con/ heater air inlet grill on the bulkhead, small plastic covers approx 8" long x 1" wide held down with 2 phillips screws. Unscrew and remove the cover, clean the cover and the mating surface...

    rain water

    It has to be the pollen filters, mine always leak when it comes back from a service, when I change them I re seal the covers with clear silicon, as the sponge gaskets are not very watertight, unless they are renewed too. JV-ROVERMAN

    What diameter leak off pipe do i need?

    You should find most local car spares shops/ motor factors keep this in stock as a pre-pack, about 1 metre length labeled diesel leak-off pipe, it just puhes on to the nipples on the top of the injectors and is easily cut to length with a Stanley knife or sharp tinsnips, its usually about £2 a...

    MOT Fail

    I would say its best to change the whole track rod incl ends and or the drag link incl the end, as the tubes (rods) have been known particularly on the series LRs to rust from the inside and when they get thin, buckle and fail. I am not sure whether this is the case with P38's but for the extra...
