Nanocom now sold.

Yes - positive.

No - I haven't relapsed yet (nor will I), just a bit of background info. For 2 years SWMBO (it's her car) has been saying to me "When are you going to get rid of that thing". She hasn't been driving it - "don't trust it", and yet before it went, "Are you sure you want to sell it?" Then - "...

NOOOOOOOO! Thanks, but definitely no thanks. QED

Today, after 8 years, I sold my P38. I escaped once before when I sold the LSE, but relapsed after 3 weeks (after several helpful souls on here warned me I would) when I bought the P38. So after more than 15 years, I no longer suffer from the disease of owning a LR vehicle. This time there will...

This thread may help, see the photo's on post 7. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/p38-rear-bumper-removal.101039/ That Rimmer part is correct but I seem to remember I had to make up a new plate to replace the rusted out bracket off the chassis that this part bolts onto . . . This -...

P38, feeling smug! Never, ever dare to put 'smug' and 'P38' in the same sentence, it will come back and bite you on the arse (as I think you're beginning to realise). You have a Land rover product - it will go wrong. Fix it (or get it fixed), chalk it up to experience, then enjoy it till next...

Thanks for your thoughts gentlemen, it's definitely a mechanical tick - I've had a stethoscope on it and it's towards the rear of the bank. Not a manifold blow. Just spent the afternoon grovelling under the beast replacing the exhaust, off to soak in a hot bath, it'll probably take a few days...

Gems 4.6. I've got a ticking tappet/follower, (nearside) can you remove the rocker cover without removing the plenum? Ideally need to check what's happening while it's running. TIA

Before I sold my LSE (Hi Pete) a couple of years ago I replaced the rusty steel one with ally and had a similar problem, I couldn't see how the hinges fixed to the ally frame. But I took the top rail off and found there was a steel plate about 50 x 12 x 3mm, that sat in a channel in the side...

No - inflexion is a variation of inflection. ;) Inflexion is from middle French/latin, I'm English. Come and join me in pedants' corner :):)

Inflections. 3/10 - See me.

That's not sarcasm - THIS is sarcasm (read this in an Australian accent) "Please try again when you have a thicker skin, you will be sorely missed.;):rolleyes: "

" . . . basically anyone who understands electrics are wizards and should be burnt in a public market square while us mortals drink vessels of ale and throw rotten eggs at you !!!!!" Perhaps not the best way to start a thread on EAS as, if your wish comes true, all the people capable of...

A big fire would do it . . .
