Also look at current Arnott Gen11 thread: seems like their guaranteed for life slogan means summat. Live n learn.

Air pipes are plastic and can be melted by hot exhausts etc. Gotta get underneath and look.

Shame on me for being a cynic then! Good to hear about good service.

Probably much the same when new, but some are more shagged-out/less well maintained than others. Before throwing money at go faster bits, just give your oldie a PROPER service.

Pretty sure Datatek is right (pun intended).. about NHS rules. EHIC needed if out of UK system for 6months. (EC residents). But many doctors receptionists etc will not check eligibility if confronted by "white anglo saxons" speaking good English, and daren`t challenge others! Think the rules are...

I`ve no personal experience of Arnotts. Those that have fitted `em seem happy enough; but not many people say "I paid extra for so n so an got took". Tis human nature to make the most of our choices. If you`re happy with the standard why change? Or try to get adrive in a car fitted with `em...

What does your receipt say? Just because some American web-site says guaranteed for life don`t mean a lot methinks. Good luck tho!

P38 spares Gen11 Arnott £299. Island4x4 Dunlop (original) £190.(free delivery). Get set of pins too, chances are you`ll need `em. Pays `ur money `n` makes `ur choice. As Datatek says compressor may be due some TLC soon. And if you haven`t get EAS unlock suite and OBD11 lead too.

From my Haynes manual seems: fuse 4 in engine fuse box purple/brown to relay 21 purple /green from relay 21 to horns purple/orange from horn push to relay 21 relay "21" is located behind passenger footwell side panel. Hope this helps & good luck. Maybe check horns are ok by sparking 12v across...

I had set of 5 P38 16 alloys, advertised `em here and ebay, no real interest, so sold for scrap. You should get `em easily enough.

Maybe multiple faults.. Sorry. Follow jamesmartin`s advice about checking colour as trans oil. Sort air in fuel problem. If you can see bubbles you obviously have clear pipes, and they weren`t clear as standard (at least on earlier models, stand correction on a V reg). So someone has already...

Looked at your spark plugs lately?? What colour are they? All the same except one nice clean one?

I Know.. I Know..Nicer drive RR, Better for yor bank balance Ford ... Easy. What`s the next question? What`s a better holiday resort, Manchester or Melbourne? You pay for the tickets `n` I`ll supply the answer.

Spigot rings, and a set of nuts methinks.

You got a TD5?? The wheels are the same as a P38 RR, I believe, but wheels from earlier Disco1s will not fit. Check on that, but I`m fairly sure that`s correct. (L322 wheels will need spigots and nuts to suit, but you ain`t about to find them in 16" I`d guess). P38 wheels 16" readily available...

Agree with you there Wammers. Strange how now Cameron talks about "big society" when a certain political predecessor of his said: "there is no such thing as society". (Oct 1987) I`m no fan of Mr Scargill, but closing our mines to pay workers to go on the dole so we could import Polish coal...

Agree that Politicians should be paid a multiple of the average wage, or the minimum wage.And the CEO of a company should be paid a multiple of the lowest paid employee (or contractor) of said company. Bosses want to earn more; they pay more. We`re all much better off (in terms of possessions)...

Datatek, by removing tax from income to expenditure, the burden moves from richer to poorer people; We all, rich & poor, spend on fuel, and living expenses, tv licences but we the less well off spend more of our income on living, and don`t have the option of avoiding taxes by stuffing money...

Here`s an idea, but maybe not a good one, take out thermostat, take off top hose, (engine cold), start engine if pump is good, water should shoot out everywhere. Only need to run for 30secs to check. As Datatek says it sounds like a waterpump failure, although you say it`s new. Relatively easy...

On the plus side (and it`s only a small plus) you won`t be sat here this time next week kicking yourself for not going to see it ! (dunno if I said that right, but you know what I mean)
