First 4.2 Jag engine was in 2005 on a 55 plate.

The early V8 BMW engines are 4.4. The later Jag engines are 4.2. No idea about the problem however. :confused:

I've owned a P38 2.5TD and now have a L322 4.4 V8 with no LPG. P38 was 28mpg and a good all round car. L322 Vogue with petrol is 18mpg, but absolute luxury with bags of power, just as a RR should be. :) TDV8 is the best option, but too much for me!

I was going to buy the Comma 5w40 £29.99 (Same as Halfords 5w40 £36.99). Comma recommend the 5w30 too. But the GM is just too good value.

I've been chewing over what oil to buy for a few days now for my 51k mile 4.4 V8 petrol. I used Vauxhall's 10w40 semi for my 2.5TD P38 changed every 6k. 10 litres and a filter (Omega used the same BMW engine) for £28 on trade club prices and it was fine. So after checking all the spec...

That is a very good point. I ride (in the summer) and that is leathal and needs filling ASAP.

A decent paint shop/repairer will not have this problem. Don't just think alloy wheel repair.

lol

WOW it's almost been a few years since I saw that. Nice pic WAMMERS. Poor quality battery can be 1 of many reasons why the P38 will 'dance'. Driver pack can be an issue.

Wake up loser, this thread is now old, man!

L322 - £0 Requires new air compressor - £400 ish - under warranty. Only had it 10 days so far, lol.

Yes good point from Data, there is a/some relays that can cause big problems if not working correctly.

Before you go buying a hot start bodge, check the diesel leak off pipes. They deteriorate over time and can cause starting problems. You can replace the pipes for under a tenner.

You really must have nothing better to do!

Bad luck! You could get your spare painted to match the rest on your wheels.

I almost bought a front set of brand new supercharger Brembo callipers to upgrade mine. Do I need them, no, do they look good, most definitely yes. Had i bid (finished at £275) would I have got drilled and grooved disc a for them? Dam right I would. But I decided the money would be spent...

lol As I remember it, they are not in any way costly and also in no way are they intended to be flash. After all they're on a P38. But they do look better than solid discs, what the hell is wrong with wanting them to look better? Just because you would not spend your money on them...

LOL I see someone else getting a taste of some 'regular' members 'humor'! I put the Britpart drilled/grooved discs on my old P38 and they had covered 20k miles when I sold it. I used EBC pads too, cheapest I think. They barely had a lip on them! Surprisingly good in fact. I was chewing over...

OK just got new car and it feels really good and I'd like it to stay that way. 2005 (54) Vogue 51k miles full dealer history - 3 services completed. I'm looking at changing the transmission oil with type LT 71141. I can get 12l or 20l - I understand you need to do a few changes to get as...

That was my thought too, lol.
