    P38 overheating

    Start it up, let it get hot and then carefully insert a rolled-up newspaper into the cooling fan. If the paper can stop it, it points to a problem with your viscous coupling not operating and turning the fan to provide cooling. If on the other hand your arm and paper are mashed to crap, you...

    Starting up

    Right, that's it - I'm going to re-sync the keys and if it all goes tits up I know who to blame. I shall have to remember to make the clicking sound myself if the wife is in the car case she thinks she can drive it. I'll give it a go this weekend and get back to - at least i will if i ever...

    Starting up

    My car is generally never locked outside the house (shhhhhhhh - don't tell the insurance). When i want to start up, I jump in and press the right button with the key in the lock and off I go. The car will never lock itself, hours or even days after it has been parked On those occasions when I...

    Starting up

    I'm talking about getting straight in and turning the key - each time i have to click the right button on the remote with the key in the ignition or I get the 'engine disabled' message and the buzzer. It doesn't matter how long between getting and starting, that's just the way the car has...

    Pic request - Modded P38 Range Rover

    I think picture two is from within the walls of Broadmoor. Who in their right mind would mant to make a perfectly good Classic RR want to look like a Disco. FFS

    Starting up

    Oooooooooooh - that sound awfully iffy to me. That sounds just like what happens when I decide to put up a new picture hook in our right old house. Two bags of lime plaster and a tin of emulsion later........................... I think I'll leave it - it being a P38 and all.

    Starting up

    Nope, as i say, i just jump in after unlocking and if i put the key in and turned it there would be a buzzer and the message 'engine disabled' - once I press the right button there is an audible click from somewhere behind me and the message 'start engine' appears and off we go. Never thought...

    Starting up

    My 4.6 is currently in the garage getting a new air temp sensor fitted. I got a call from them this morning asking if my car 'always started that way' by which they mean that when I unlocklock it on the remote and get in, I always have to press the right button on the remote to get it started...

    Pic request - Modded P38 Range Rover

    If people wanted to bollix about a Range Rover - why didn't they buy a Disco, there's one that LR already did for you.

    Best battery replacement procedure

    I would keep the Pajero and p/x the contents of your current account. That way you get one car that works and one that cost you all your money - just like any Range Rover

    Still won't start

    Apparrently it is the Air Intake Temperature Sensor, it thinks the temperature is -44c and is overfuelling, in effect providing too much choke and fouling the plugs. What I was beginning to think was fuel starvation was just the opposite and may in fact account for a recent rise in fuel...

    Still won't start

    RAC man just left - he tells me it is over fuelling. remove the fuel relay under the bonnet and it runs fine, replace it and it lumbers along and cuts out once the fuel in the rail has been used. All readings ok except Air meter 0.00 until relay (above) is removed. Sadly it's off on a...

    Still won't start

    Posted yesterday, still no progress, except to eliminate a couple of things. 4.6 - engine cranks, occasionally fires for a few seconds (it seems the slightest touch of the throttle to keep it alive, kills it instead), then dies and cranks until battery dies. Checked fuel rail - good...

    Non starter - help!!

    Another thought, (sorry to keep posting on my own query) all the reading so far suggests I need sync mate, but if the becm and the ECU were out of sync, would it be completely dead whan cranking over or would there be intermittent signals, enough for a few seconds of life. I think I know the...

    Non starter - help!!

    Updated - After another 3.5 of hours on charge, the damn things starts first time and the suspension, which had descended to access height all on it's own, popped straight back up to normal. Revving well, no issues, no misfire or hesitation. Turn it off, wait 15 minutes for the wife to get...

    Non starter - help!!

    What was an issue with trouble hot starting (see post a few days ago), has now become a won't start at all issue. 4.6 petrol - with battery charged, engine spins and 'catches', toying with the throttle can get it going for a second or two but then it dies. On and on it goes until battery is...
