All said not many big classic (time will tell) 4x4's are without there foibles. (new word for me!). I've owned 2 P38's (amongst some real dross and crackers) and have encountered most of there issues including suspension and dead electrics, keep yer cool and you will overcome without heading off...

Thanks for that 'Big Lad'. Its a lot of car for around £6 - 8K and if I keep it for 5years minimum ..... makes a lot of sense.

Thing is .... Wife loved, I mean LUVVED 'her' Pathfinder, so I viewed some really nasty ones including an Auto one (these are defo not pretty with regards the gear selector) and she's said 'maybe a Disco 3 would look better' ..... Result. Happy days.

Yeah I know about the 'body off stuff' will only happen every 100k/5yr hopefully.:) Oh, I had a Landcruiser as well. Need something a bit more PR to jump about in. Not unlimited on the ££££ front so it'll be a 3. I suppose it will need to be a test drive. Hope the sellers not a F***y :rolleyes:

Thinking....Just thinking mind, about buying a Disco 3. I've owned a P38 4.6 in the past then had a few Jap 4x4's (Trooper, Patrol and Pathfinder) but presently own a P38 4.0. The Q is, will a Diesel D3 Auto be sprightly enough off the mark reason being I had a 'shot' of a diesel P38 and...

After I sold my 4.6 I had withdrawal symptoms - I just really missed it. I then took a test drive in a 2.5 and was so dissapointed on its lack of power. I now have a 4.0 (its a tiny bit down on the 4.6 but noticable) - love it too bits. P.s. everything goes wrong.:D

I have swapped the car parking space for my Rangie with the wifes audi to keep waaaaayyyyyyy back from the BT manhole cover that is suspect in draining the battery and giving whole host of problems to the rangie......problem is.....after parking the audi in that spot I couldn't get the central...

Funny funny funny! Must be a windup!:lol:

Well, just completed a 350mile road test all over Northern Scotland, used a tank of fuel (£100 approx and not taking it easy!) - No problems whatsoever !!!!! Except Lecht Ski Centre want 50p a P! You have to moan at summat!:eek:

Do I have a grin like a chesire cat or what!!!! Its started - it goes - I love you Range Rover. till the next ruddy time! Thanx guys!

Update. Doorcard off. Looks like the end of the barrell lock has broken/fallen off and is just danglin'. I've stuck a really small cable tie around it to hold it towards the lock so that when the lock turns it lifts the rod (thats attached to it) up and down and hopefully that will allow the EKA...

Thanks guys for all that info. Would the nanocom solve this? Would I just plug it in and Biff Baff Boff start and go?? Sounds like a smashing idea!

Renfrewshire

Any other way to get the EKA code in other than by key itself? As I think my problem lies within the lock...it feels as though its disconnected. :confused:

Thanks guys.....so far! In the morning when the sun shines on the bonny banks the heid will be under the bunnet...again! New batts in everything and a clear head. Once more unto the breach....keep it comin ..more info the better.:)

Sorry if this is in the wrong bit administrators. Hi to all, Im on my second P38 but just encountered my biggest problem and I hope someone can point me in the right direction. It wouldnt unlock with the Fob so the teenage son used the key. Long familiar story later.. New Battery in car...

Is it the fags and beer that put your blood pressure up or P38's with a teenager 'know it all' on your shoulder. I hope to be well liked and would like to thank the best logical brains in existance - in advance!! because, Oh Boy! I need help!
