Since i have had the car if i press the horn quick all is fine..... If an Idiot driving around gets in my way and i want to HOLD the horn the fuse will go pop, and I replace the fuse. Any one know why? lol

OK well I have changed the Injector pump after having the bits from the RR one into the BMW one as they were different... And I mangeged to get the car running runs sweet as a nut... Just need a fuel pump in the tank as mine is u/s. but all good now.. Didn't need to sync it in the end.

Hi I have had to change my engine in my RR 2.5td p38.. I am asking if there is anyone in Salisbury (Wiltshire/Hampshire area) with a Sync mate that I can borrow just incase it all needs syncing..... thank you

The pump didn't fit as the casing from the BMW engine was different, so I have had the pumps referbed with the bits from the rr pump.. fitiing it again tomorrow eveing.. will let you know.......

I would like to thank everone for there help. I have just joined this site after reading many post over the last few weeks. I have this RR 2.5td p38 and really enjoy the drive etc until the rad got a crack in it the it all went down hill. But trying to get it back on the road.. for many...

No I taped up the Starter and alternator cables and didn't need to disconect the battery, saving the ass ache as i haven't got EKA code yet. only had car short while..

thats what i thought, I have to borrow the pump removal tool to change the pump. if that will resolve the problem other that having to transport it to a garage. ans spend a fortune... lol

i got the BMW engine and just put it in the rr. changed sump/pick up pipe/ steering pump. nothing electrical, kept all wiring from rr. oh and engine mounts. Got the engine from a scrap yard..

If I changed the the Injector pump to rr would it till need to be re sync'd with the BECM - ECU

Cheers, at least i haven't got to change the diesel inj pump. So I will get it sync'd and see how it goes thanks

Well I am in Wiltshire, Salisbury. So I guess I need special equiptment for that!

HI my rr (M reg) head had a crack in it so i have replaced the engine with 2.5 3 series bmw (L reg). It turns over and the injector light stays on and the fuel pump isn't working... Does the diesel distribution pump need to be changed to the rr one? Or is there something else I am over...
