I have a 1997 P38 2.5. Had all the pads changes last year and replaced the accumulator 6 months ago. Been no problem with the brakes, passed the MOT fine. Over the last few days the brakes have started to feel spongey. So I checked the Brake fluid level. From the outside the level looked OK...

Think you might be right, just see the back very high, Its LHD so is the relay under the drivers seat? Im away for a couple of weeks will try and let you know when I get back.

P38 2.5 1998, had new bags and pump fitted last year, going up and down as advertised but this week, parked on level ground, when I come out in the morning the rear has gone to high (maybe even more) After starting up it takes a few minutes to level again, then all back to normal. Any...

Tried the ECU, tried the Transfer Motor all OK. Drained the oil, bit black, had a good feel around in it, nothing. Then put my finger into the drain hole and could feel a large piece of metal there, felt like a bit of a cog. So managed to get a second hand transfer box from a guy down the road...

50km north of Toulouse

When I put a fuse in to No 11 the TXF box does not go into neutral I get a beeb beeb but nothing showing on the dash and the gears still work, Does this indicate its the TXF motor stuck?

is the ECU under the drivers side on LHD? The fuses are under the Pax side

I only checked the Automatic Transmission fluid level, I have a dipstick, took 1 lt to fill it back to the top mark. No fault warnings coming up. Thinking overnight maybe its stuck in low ratio, will take it for a drive and go through the gears manually. Then will check the gearbox oil level...

Just driven from UK back to France (1000km) in my 1998 P38 2.5DSE, towing my motorbike (250kg) and all the wife’s shopping in the back (150kg). All went well and arrived home after 16hrs of driving (never went over 60mph). Never used the RR for a couple of days then set off down the shops...
