Comes on for a few miles then goes out might not come on again for a week or so then maybe twice in the same day!
She seems to run ok is this just a typical landrover electrical gremlin or a harbinger of things to come:confused:
Shukers Shrewsbury think it may be the lambda but I dont want to splash the cash if I dont have to.
ANY THOUGHTS???
 
slight problem :( Beeeecause the motor is lpg converted they wont let it in their workshop (health 'n' safety?)
I don't think its the lpg as it happens when running on petrol as well.
Although wot do I know?:)

what a bunch of tits. more likely can't be arsed, or aren't trained, or more likely don't have the lpg recovery equipment for depressurising the system. Why do they have to get it inside ? surely their hand held tech can read live data while it's in the yard ?

I had a factory fitted lpg astravan. fine for the first couple of years, but got worse and worse, refusing to run on gas. In and out of the dealers all the time, in the end the senior tech. met me outside one day and told me I was wasting my money keep bringing it back 'cos they couldn't find what was wrong with it, and told me to take it to an lpg specialist.

ran it quite happily on petrol for another couple of years then got rid. Funnily enough, Vauxhall have stopped selling factory fit dual fuel cars and vans. I wonder why.....
 
Cant really blame a main dealer for not having LPG in their workshops,they have to warrant all they do and to sort out a badly fitted/adjusted system is not really on.Many garages have been sued by angry owners who dont want to acknowledge their car is never going to be right.
You would be better off asking on here for recommendations to a local fuel injection specialist to sort the car out on petrol,then take it to an LPG specialist for the gas.Might seem a bit long winded but lots of garages dont seem to understand one,let alone both.
