I didn't have to do the EKA code - used a tip of RR.net to have the key in position 2 when connecting the battery, and I disconnected the battery when the car was not locked / immobilised...

yeah tried that Gav as that seemed logical, but still got the msg. will give it another go tomorrow tho. FYI - EAS pump coming on quite frequently still, so think it's going to end up going the same way, but can't see any leaks. When I managed to get the rear raised before battery totally...

cheers, that worked a treat, but didnt seem to for the sunroof message, which is the same type, so i tried the same thing...??

Hi Guys, got an update!! Went away for the weekend, so didnt get a chance to put the fully charged battery back in. Just done it. Ok, this was the order of attack Manually unlocked car Put key in ignition and turned to position 2 Put battery in place and connected up Checked faults, all...

Either way it's undriveable so it makes no difference. If I can't sort it, it gets sorted. No big deal.

For a number of reasons mainly being I’m no stranger to laptops, serial cables, software and cars. So, what looked like a 2 minute job to get the thing back on the road (especially after I believe I found the leak on the air dryer) it seemed quick, easy and cheap to fix, without the hassle of a...

Cheers Gav. Not panicking, just a bit miffed as away this weekend and lots to do ahead of which is now on the back burner. The joys huh :-)

Cheers guys. Spoke with the garage who sold me the EAS reset kit, he said dead battery will give symptoms im experiencing. Said it will not have damaged BECM, charge battery and it should be ok. Apparently RR's give fault codes when there is not enough power in the system?? Will get a...

Ok guys, whats my next logical steps here? Take the battery out, recharge. When I put it back, I eill then have to do the EKA code?? Never done this. What are the chances the BECM is now blown due to all this? Without a battery and power will the BECM not reset once power is back...

Well, thanks to all the on topic responders :-) The car started before I did anything, it was a little slower than usual turning over, but I didn't suspect a flat battery. So I switched off the ignition and connected up the cable and laptop, started the software, then put the ignition to on...

Hi Bit of a problem, recieved EAS cable and software, plugged in laptop read codes for EAS and did reset BUT now all i have is about every warning possible on the display on the dashboard, alternator fault, gearbox failure, traction failure, etc etc etc. No rev counter and temp guage goes...

Thanks for the response, from memory (car not near me right now) the pipes are side by side, not 1 top one bottom? its a 99/v reg if that makes any difference? Anyway, i'll mark the pipes and try this quick fix/workaround. I'd hope I can avoid an air lock carrying out this work, any tips...

Guys Is there a temporary fix to coolant loss through the heater o-rings by disconnecting the two pipes in the engine bay and putting a new pipe on, connecting the inlet/outlet pipes together in the engine bay, to create a direct link between the two. Basically, my o-rings are leaking causing...

Hi all Ok, I’ve now had my 99 P38 for 2 months and covered a shade under 2000 miles, relatively trouble free, though I’ve had a few quirky yet expected things. One thing that happened yesterday and driving in to work today though – engine was running rough, not too bad, but noticeably with a...

Ok, thanks for the responses, will sort the terms, keep an eye on EAS, and not worry about the cooling system (for now lol) cheers...

... whilst I was away, and now I'm back, so hi all. Couple of things since returning tho - Battery kept enough charge to crank the engine and start it first time no probs. However, rear drivers side air suspension had lowered, and the pump didnt kick in. Started to drive home (as left it at...

warrantydirect.co.uk call 0800 731 7001 ext 245, very helpful and been trying to get me to by mine.... if she'll do a discount for 2 then i'll definitely consider taking mine out ;-)

ah ok cool, thanks! :-)

Is this normal? After running fo 45mins on way in to work, checked coolant level, which was ok, took off cap, bit of steam and water in tank quite hot! (could just reach with a finger) Water level didnt change, no back pressure. Temp was fine all the way to work, sitting just left of center, as...

won't be parked near a power source so no charger option. Nah she wont be able to take it for a spin. So if it goes flat, it will require the code to unlock? thanks
