Thanks Datatek! Funnily enough I've just bought a Fault Code Reader, nothing fancy, just a Clarke one. Its picking up the following: P0335a - Crank Position Sensor Circuit A P1174 P1667 As the fault is intermittent and after hitting a pothole, I suppose this could be a loose connection I...

forgot to add its a V Reg 4.6HSE Thor Engine!

Thanks to everyone who has responded, it was really re-assuring whilst sat in various laybys between Poole and Cornwall! Anyway back home safely now! I hope its ok, but just wanted to re-cap on the issues including whats happened on the last part of the journey to see if anyone could throw any...

Thanks Trax, thought we were doing well but its cut out twice more since exeter. I'm going to do some testing and leave it on Petrol for a bit. Dont think its LPG related, but its been running on LPG every time its cut out (plenty of fuel) and a reset of the cut off seems to fix the issue. I...

Yeah definitely sure it's that, hit a pot hole and engine died shortly after. Would crank well (good and strong) but not fire. Found the cutoff switch and switched to petrol and she fired first time. Got about 5 miles down the road engine coughed and then died about 500 yards later, as I was...

The alternator fault only flagged when the engine died and I was coasting to the hard shoulder, I guess it would have flagged as not charging as the engine stalled? Will definitely check once I get home. Any ideas on the inertia switch?

Possibly, she starts fine after the fuel Cut off switch is reset. Just a quick update left the engine running whilst waiting for the Rac and gearbox and alternator fault warnings have cleared. In going to pin this one down to low battery after trying to start on the roadside before. Rac chap...

yes all good, right managed to reset the intertia switch again, swapped it back to petrol and she starts. No error on start, but gearbox error on shutdown. RAC en route (no idea if they'll be able to do anything, but dont really fancy it cutting out on the M5! Can the inertia switch by...

Quick update, reset the Inertia switch (no message on dash though) and she fired. Managed to get 5 miles down the road, and got a jolt another 2 miles down the A30 near Hawkes Tor and she's died again, showing Gearbox Fault and Alternator Fault (im assuming because it died whilst running)...

Hi All, bit of a plea here, stuck on the A30 between Bodmin and Helland with my P38 which just died on me. She's been fine all weekend, but died after hitting a pot hole. Plenty of Fuel (LPG and Petrol), she cranks but wont fire. Waiting for the RAC provided they can find me, but thought i'd...

its been butchered if it had, those lights dont look good nor the Grill

Hi all, I've got a 1999 4.6 Thor p38 on gas. Had an interesting couple of seconds when I pulled out of a junction the evening. I wasn't exactly light footed, but when I lifted off we carried on accelerating. Tried to brake, but couldn't overcome the engine, so dropped it into neutral. I lifted...

Cool, well the my Local Indy too the P38 in this morning at 0830 and called me by 1300 and told me they'd replaced the UJ which has, i am pleased to say solved the problem. To quote the mechanic, the Prop was "hanging" which doesnt sound good. Charged be £160 for the swap which seems...

Sorry knee jerk reaction given past car history always default to worst case :-) appreciate the help everyone! I'll get my local Indy to check it over, they're a customer of mine and are pretty sound.

I'll get it booked in with my local Indy. If it's diff or diff bearings, what sort of money we potentially looking At?

Did you have the squeal too?

YouTube video suggests diff, it's definitely the same noise.

Expensive?

Would uj cause vibration and squeal? Could it be related to driving on a flat?
