A powerbox alters input signals to the ECU, not output signals, therefore cannot affect the MPG reading. Sounds like your RR just isn't good at maths, assuming you are.

Problem is come winter you forget to replace with correct mix of anti-freeze and then uh-oh...

Sounds like it working correctly if it's at 12 o'clock, 1/4 isn't. Getting fan off can seem impossible, it needs and almighty whack with the water pump pulley held, i rigged up a flat bar with two holes bolted to the pulley bolt holes. I thought i hit it so hard i must have damaged the water...

The needle should be on the first mark below 1000rpm, which is actually 750rpm as the tacho doesn't start at 0, it starts at 250rpm.

Are you sure first off that your fuel/air systems are all in tip top condition? I did a bit of maintenance over the weekend, mainly unblocking the MAP sensor tube, and its made a big difference when going up hills. Chipping works definitely, I've no experience of an uprated intercooler, but...

Nexen are good, I've got some Roadstone Roadians on mine which i think are similar, you can't beat the price, and I can't afford Pirellis! Not the same as the Freelander, tyre rotation is allowed.

If you try and mount the spare wheel on the outside of a P38, then it should be taken it off you as punishment for ruining a good car! The solution is easy anyway, just carry the spare wheel in the boot on the day you know you're going to have a puncture, for all the other days you'll have...

Type 664, its a big one alright!

I recently had to bleed the brake system on my P38, I followed the procedure in RAVE, which if you have done so will know its a long and complicated process! Anyway that went all ok and the brakes feel good, but I notice that the first press of the pedal in the morning has a lot of travel...

The damper is in two parts, and they bond goes between them. This happened to mine, but after replacing it I didn't notice much difference. I got one for a BMW 525 from Euro Car parts for £60.

I would doubt the prognosis. Stuck valve error is a red herring; start at the easy to change bits first, compressor seal, inlet and exhaust filters, check the air bags, check all the lines for leaks. Don't go messing with the valve block and the drive pack till you have checked everything...

No they are different, completely different chassis between the D2 and P38.

Not a lot you can do really so best to stop worrying about it if you can; or you could strip the engine down for inspection and replace all bearings that show wear, yeah right... Did the engine oil pressure light come on?

They're probably shocked at how much it costs, and want to make sure it is that one!

Just like any car, but especially an early L322, I'd make sure it had only a few owners, fsh, both sets of keys, all the manuals and was totally original. Specifically check the front diff has had the replacement part fitted, check the cooling system over, and check every single piece of...
