OK. Sounds like a dodgy or dirty lift pump as already suggested, or could be a blockage "upstream" of the lift pump. Has the sedimentor ever been cleaned? (this is like a pre-filter mounted on chassis near fuel tank) It`s often over looked in servicing. But beware undoing drain plug or...

Should be ok for axles & transfer box, but NOT gearbox. R380 g-box runs on ATF. (Yes, a manual box that runs on DexronII or DexronIII auto fluid)

You say it was running OK, stopped on key, but when restarted, lacked power?? When running now does it rev up freely in neutral? If not could be slipped accelerator cable. If running on low fuel level could have some crap sucked into sedimentor or filter. Could well be lift pump, but that`s...

Well I`ll start an argument then....(wouldn`t be Landyzone otherwise would it?). 10/30 is surely gonna be too thin when warm for a turbo engine. OK for a normally aspirated diesel , but not a turbo engine. The turbo will be spinning round over 10,000 rm with the internals red hot in even...

Check out overheating/head gasket problems, and check and double check and triple check the EAS. Loads written on this forum.... for a reason! It is d.i.y-able but beware. Don`t know where you are but try to get some-one local to you to go and pick holes in anything you`re looking at. P38s are...

It could be a badly worn commutator on the electric motor that runs the air-pump; if the motor stops on a worn spot the motor will not start until the motor is turned a little (going over a bump will do this, or tapping the motor). Try hot wiring the pump as you have before, but repeat this at...

I wouldn`t expect any modern vehicle to start falling apart at that age/mileage.. I`ve no experience of the L322, but if looked after it should only be half way thro` it`s life. My P38 was sold at 170k, and is still going ok on original engine/box, and the L322 should be longer lived.. Buying...

Many threads on EGR removal; many have done it with no adverse comments. Many report more power/economy.... what you waiting for?,

Also check sliders in calipers have not seized. Gives similar symptoms to warped discs.

1: steering noise maybe cavitation in power steering pump due to low fluid. Check level as per book. 2: Transmission noise gotta be accurately localised. Drive down a quiet road with some-one walking alongside listening, or find quiet road with wall etc nearby so you can hear reflected sound...

To answer your original question: 16" are probably a better choice for off road use. When off road, & dropping pressure, there is more tyre side wall to flex and prevent damage to (alloy) wheels. 245/75 16s will give more clearance under the diffs and I think is the biggest tyre to fit with no...

Pretty sure the BECM can be modded as you wish. Ask Irishrover? Would prob affect insurance (if nicked & they found out!). With a good battery you shouldn`t be getting repeated problems tho. Sort out the under lying problem rather than try to dodge around it, as you`ll only save more problems...

You`ve obviously got to know what/where the noise is to answer that question. Tried using a mechanics stethoscope to locate whether it`s top/bottom front/back? Otherwise... "are ya feeling lucky?"

The quick answer is, yes, that wire is the rev-counter feed, yes, try and make sure you have a good firm electrical connection. Should cure your problem. (Common problem)

After a problem your ears are probably hyper sensitive to any sound. Get someone else (with suitable knowledge) to listen. Tis difficult to be objective.

Petrol= bit more poke especially on road, much nicer sound. Diesel = OK off road, but less on road performance. Also less money on fuel. Less money on spark-plugs. Less money on HT leads etc. Less money on head/engine rebuilds. So use the saved money to put in a stereo to compensate for lack...

For my 5 bobs worth: if 2 air bags have been replaced, bet the others ain`t far behind. Get under and look. Tightening up the steering box,may sort the wandering steering it may not: open wallet unless fixed first. I reckon at 160k the viscous coupling could be up for renewal soon, especially...

Better locate exactly where the noise is coming from, if it`s from the turbo... well just hope it`s not..Or could it be a split hose leaking air on high pressure side of turbo? maybe tween turbo an intercooler or more likely tween intercooler and inlet manifold??

I concur with the honourable gentleman.

http://www.firestoneindustrial.com/pdfs/techrelease/How%20an%20air%20spring%20works.pdf. So, higher loads require higher pressures to maintain a steady deflection, and therefore steady height, and increased pressure changes the spring rate. Guess the Arnott figures are for a specified...
