    P38A Rear screen heater

    Cheers Kermit, I'll do just that. However, here is where I really show my ignorance of all things electrical. Where are the relays housed, and how do I know which one to change?

    P38A Rear screen heater

    Hello again folks, my latest headache is that the rear screen heater is on permanently. I have no idea how long it's been like that but I need to fix it. Where do I start? What could make it stick on? The switch lights are not on for either screen heater so it could well be the case that both...

    P38A Fixed- Battery going flat again

    I've just checked my posts and I bought my Hancook battery 2 and a half years ago. I've kept it maintained all that time and it used to spin the engine over rapidly, I've noticed in the last few weeks that it's just not turning the engine over as well as it used to. Could this be the alternator...

    P38A Are they worth it??

    Oh yes, I've done that! I use the wife's little Toyota on a daily basis. It runs on fresh air and gets me around.

    P38A Are they worth it??

    I've thought about this but as I only use the car a few times and a week and do a total of about 3000 miles a year I don't think it's worth it. I had an X Trail converted to LPG about 10 years ago and it killed the engine within a year, although I'm sure the Range Rover engine would survive the...

    P38A Are they worth it??

    I've owned my P38 Japanese import 4.6 petrol auto for about 5 years now and had the usual ups and downs. Always a pleasure to drive but every now and then it just doesn't want to play. I saw the headline in the Daily Mail today "save us from the £100 tank of petrol Rishi". I filled up last week...

    Thank you, I'm getting an 8mm copper U bend made tomorrow, that should do the trick.

    P38A Throttle body heater coolant leak.

    Ok, I have to ask the question now, how do I bypass the heater? Which 2 pipes do I have to loop together? I've been trying to download a RAVE manual without success. Cheers,

    P38A Throttle body heater coolant leak.

    Sorry, one more thing, how the hell do you get them hose clips off from the throttle bodies?

    P38A Throttle body heater coolant leak.

    I'd never heard of one of the above before today so please bear with me. I've only been doing very short journeys for quite a while now in the car but when I returned from another one today I saw steam coming from the engine bay and saw pink residue under the throttle body. There is water...

    To be fair, I think I was due a bit.;)

    P38A Flat battery

    Thanks for the replies gents, sorry it's took me a while to get back, I've just woke up. After a short trickle charge, it started straight away. There were no warnings on the dash apart from the usual ones, a manual and an exclamation mark. They've been on for over 5 years so I'm afraid I just...

    P38A Flat battery

    Hello again, I I've been feeling ill for 2 weeks with covid. I haven't started the car in that time and when I tried yesterday it wouldn't even turn over. I tried my spare battery with jump leads, still nothing! The spare battery is fully charged and I've got the car battery charging in situ...

    P38A Overheating now and again

    I refilled the cooling system after it was dumped and the radiator is less than 18 months old. I haven't had a chance to give the car a decent run lately but I will next week and see how it goes. If the fan wasn't working surely the temperature would shoot up fairly quickly. When I did the test...

    P38A Overheating now and again

    Did that and liquid stayed blue. Just to be sure I stuck the test beside the exhaust and it went yellow. Don't know where that leaves me but at least I know it'll not be going to the knackers yard....yet!:)

    Sorry about that, it was all from the expansion tank.

    P38A Overheating now and again

    Hello again, about 3 months ago I was out and about in the car and all of a sudden temp gauge shot up. I pulled in, turned engine off for about 10 minutes and it then drove fine.....until today. I've been out and when I reversed back onto the drive I saw a trail of liquid from the front of the...

    Throttle cable replacement P38

    Yes, quite a big price difference on the cheapest, £12.50 and the dearest, £127. Anybody tried these? Also, they mention all LHD models, got to fit RHD as well?
