Hi I have a 2001 P38 4.6 V8 Automatic. Last night I got in the car and put it in reverse when something broke and the spring loaded catch under the gear lever has gone slack. I cannot now change gear or even get it out of reverse. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do about this? There is...

Had a brain fart and threw away the broken GPS and now I wish to buy another one. How do I find out the part number? My car is a 2001 P38 4.6 Vogue.

Apparently my heatshields are rusted and causing a nasty rattle. I haven't been under the car yet as I only found out what they were and I am away from home for the next few weeks. Can anyone tell me if they can be replaced separate from the exhaust system and how much they cost. Alternatively...

I just bought an ICD Direct control unit to replacec the CD autochanger. Fitting was dead easy and I can now control my ipod using the Stock Alpine head Unit. If anyone was thinking about getting this instead of changing out the head unit or using one of those FM devices I can say from my...

Hi I want to unplug my sat nav as my stereo isn't working properly, the sound only comes out of the rear two speakers and I cannot change the volume. I read here that disconnecting the satnav might fix the problem. I have a 2001 P38 4.6 vogue. In Rave it shows a tool tSMD 4091 to unclip the...

HGow long should it take to do the heater matrix by a professional? I understand it is a dashboard off job and does sound like a bit of a nightmare?

Hi folks I got home from being away for a few weeks and couldn't start the car. Got a double beep warning and no lights on the dash but windscreen wiper would work which was odd. I jump started the car from my wifes car and the Rangie started up. Now I cannot change the volume on the the...

I am currently out of the country so cannot check but I think my Rangie has the Alpine stereo. It is a late 2001 Vogue edition. I am looking for a connection for an ipod and have found this Can anyone tell me if I am ordering the correct adaptor? Cheers

Hi I have a quick question I'll be taking the car in for a service anyway but was curious to see if this is normal. If I put the brakes on then let my foot up half way then apply the brakes again the peddle goes hard. Any thoughts what might cause this? The disks on the front look reasonably...

I think my car which is good condition hasn't been properly serviced for a long time, I suspect the owner took it to a freindly garage where the basic service was performed but I doubt they were a specialist. Now I want the most thorough service and check up I can get so that I can know more...

Yes I know I shouldn't be suprised. I bought one of these little beauties as I didn't fancy keeping my laptop in the car every time I go for a drive. Got EAS failure and plugged in the kicker. A few seconds later I get the green flashes and off we go again! I'm well chuffed!

Hi all Has anyone got any photos of how to change the wing mirror glass. Mine is cracked and I got a replacement for 15 quid off ebay. Many thanks in advance

Hi all After asking for some help on here I finally settled on buying a Range Rover Vogue 2001 over a Disco. I found a very nice looking Green one (three owners) on ebay and paid 8 grand for it in the end. It seemed in almost perfect condition and the low milage really did it for me. Over the...

I am getting the generic EAS FAULT limit speed to 35mph. No other message. I have downloaded the free EASunlock software and ordered a cable. I mistakenly ordered a serial cable instead of the UBS one and dont have the port on my laptop. I am in desperate need to get this fixed as it is sat on...

Hi all you might have seen a couple of posts I've made recently. The first discussing the merits of diesel versus v8. Then I started looking at discoveries. I finally found a car I liked. A 2001 Range Rover Vogue edition. It has 60k on the clock, 3 owners, hardly used in the last couple of...

It's almost to the point of putting me off buying one! The 2001 look so much nicer. a) Why did they make the front end of the disco fugly? b) Is there anything that can easily be done to make it look more like the 2001? c) or should I stop crying like a little girl and just buy the bloody thing...

I am still looking at my options. I am aiming for a 2001-2002 discovery or maybe a range rover of same year. I was looking at range rovers originally and now am looking at discoveries. I am not sure whether to go V8 or Diesel. I know the TD5 and 2.5 in the range are different and the former...

I have a thread in the Range Rover forum asking about P38s but the more I think about it I am getting worried. It seems than not only are they more expensive to fix (I accepted that) but now I am reading than many people are advising me to steer clear of P38s. Same people advised me to go for...

Hi all first and most important post (well for me) I'm just getting a first dog, I fish and shoot and basically my poor old A3 gets a hammering everytime we go down a muddy track or on anything that isn't concrete. So...I have concluded that I should get a 4x4 but I don't want to give up...
