So, driving home, and the suspension button on dash lights up, "EAS fault" comes on dash. Nose goes up, tail goes down, lower on drivers side. I nurse it home, and park up. Drivers rear is definitely lower than the other side. So, it's an air fault of some kind, maybe a bag has gone? First...

Its been sat a while, earth strap off as I haven't pinned down my battery drain. Popped the earth back on, jumped in, turned the key... cranking... cranking... and eventually I give up. It did this before, cranked for a while and then started rather lumpily before fully firing up. Swapped out...

So, I'm changing the glow plugs. Its an aluminium inlet manifold, and that has to come off to make doing the plugs easier, so I got new gaskets. Seeing as I'm in this vicinity, I've also been advised to take the opportunity to change the leak-off hoses, and I got a length of fuel hose to do...

New problem... window in drivers door recently started dropping a little, but suddenly now its dropped a lot and the electric motor doesn't work, I have to stop, get out, and wrestle it back up into place. Before I get the door card off and start poking around, any ideas as to what it could be?

Yes.... its me.... again! Whilst hunting for an electrical fault in the wires in the LH footwell (problems with the LH door electrics), I found some fluid in the channel that the wires are run in. At first, given that my rear windscreen squirter has stopped squirting, I thought maybe the pipe...

Had a battery drain issue, as regular readers of the forum will know. Well, although I'm no expert after loads of research and testing, it looks like the BECM is not going to sleep, so, whats the next step? New (2nd hand) BECM (and keys?)? Send BECM away for a spanking (I mean, to get fixed)...

So, as a newbie to owning any 4x4, let alone a Range Rover (in this case a '97 2.5 diesel DSE manual on air), and having only a limited experience/knowledge of all things mechanical, I guess I bought it with a little of the old "rose tinted" view.. how hard can it be, right? Well, quietly proud...

Just that really. I'm looking to download the RAVE pack onto my desktop, got it on disc somewhere and sods law I cant find it where it should be, so I'll download it so I always got it handy.

Tackling this today, any advice.. or a link to an idiots guide (me being the idiot!). First question... have all of the fans, rads etc got to come out individually, or can they come out in one go together? Does the bumper have to come off for access to a couple of the nuts?

I'm going to try to track down my battery drain parasite circuit, but to do so I need to have the vehicle think the bonnet is closed, so I can pull fuses out of the fuse box with a multi-meter attached to the battery. Anyone know how to fool it , or a way to clamp the bonnet switch down?

So, my fan works..... sometimes, no rhyme or reason to it, one day I can jump in and everything works, fan goes like the clappers when you turn it up... other times it doesn't work at all. Odd thing is, sometimes I can shut the engine down, take the key out, then put the key back in and start it...

I don't know where I saw one, maybe it was on here, but a site started a thread that people could add garages, mechanics, parts shops etc to that gave great service, or good discounts, or great advice, or went the extra mile to help us 4x4ers, so that anyone could see it and contact them. It...

Hiya gang, yes its me again! Ok, got a very (very) slight oil leak from the bottom oil pipe going onto the cooler, mechanic says it may be the o-ring, but cant be sure until its apart. I'm tempted to get a bit oily and do it myself, but here's the rub, apparently the junction where the oil...

I've been looking to put light grills on my Tank, and started looking at various sites. I was advised to make sure I got the brackets and screws for them too... but I just took a look at my lights and there are no (visible) screws holding them in, its possible that the lights are not original...

Had to go pick my daughter up tonight, and as it was a run where there were mixed sections of mountain roads, dual carriageway and standard roads, I had a play with the computer. I had a rough idea of expected MPG, usually around 27, however on a stretch where I was cruising along in a line of...

Anyone breaking a p38, I need an interior light blister, the Tank had a windscreen leak at some point in its past, and the owner at the time dealt with that, but the little curcuit board inside the light blister got wet and has now corroded and crumbled away.

No sooner do I fix one problem, than I find another! Anyone know how to open the glove box ? Its not locked with the key, it looks like the mechanism has two latch points, and the one nearest to door seems to be the problem.

Ok guys, I have the P38 battery gremlin.... yup, I wake up to a flat battery if I leave the Tank standing for a couple of days. I've disconnected the RF unit aerial, which helps, and I've ordered a power cut-out unit to put in the power feed for the RF unit... yeah, I'll be the guy with two fobs...

Does anyone know of a reliable supplier of good bars, preferably lockable?

Well, I went and did it, just picked this up, and all seems well so far, nothing dripped, dropped, blew up or fell off during the run back. Few things need attention, the head-liner is drooping, the passenger side front door electrics don't work, it has the oh-so annoying problem of the RF unit...
