The trailer lights work ok except for the brake lights, the Defender ones are ok, the 7 pin socket is good and clean and all looks like proper kit. Using a multimeter I dont get a reading on the brake light pin but it will dimly light up one trailer brake light. Trailer lights work fine on other...

Eas seemed a bit better Friday so Saturday checked it over and the water was down about about a pint which it has never been before, topped up and set off with an empty trailer on a 30 mile trip, about 28 miles in the temp went into the red, I eased off and took a side road and it came back to...

Finally, the EAS got me after 165k miles its started to play up, changed a rear RH sensor as the plastic mounts were broken off, a week later the compressor finally wore out, fitted my spare which pumps well and it stays nice and level over a week so no serious leaks, now after about 10 miles it...

The tyre centres never seem to set the tracking right, I am not sure if its the modern equipment and the half day training but new tyres and tracking set and its always ends up with bad steering and tyres wearing on the inside. The fluid coupling in the transfer box is still good, I have changed...

Rad just blown tonight, has anyone got any updates on the Aluminium option how they are working out? Just looking on fleabay and the ones available in this country all seem to say up to 1999 or something only I thought they were all the same except for the oil cooler bit which can be left if...

Trying to get a S3 with the old 2.25 diesel running that has been sat for years, the lift pump valves were stuck so freed them off and got it to prime through the filter and down to the injector pump, it will bleed through the pump bleed screw but nothing out of the bleed screw on the cover...

My fault entirely my steering wheel is minging, years of using it as a work vehicle means on a hot day my hands stick to the wheel and the leather has split in the most annoying of places, tried cleaning it but its fooked, looked at covers on the bay and the stitch on ones are not going to work...

Changing the front down pipe today, I had a new one stashed away and when unwrapped it does not have the flex before the cat or the mounting hanger rod, a label says manual trans, I wonder what can the difference be between the manual and auto trans have on the pipe moving, is the mounting...

My P38 has had a problem with the front passenger door getting harder to open, the handle pulls out but you have to give it a good old pull to open it and its been getting worse over time, just lately the key fobs have been playing up a bit but changing batterys has one working well but on a...

My brother in law has been very ill and his disco sport has a problem with low battery warning, its about 3 1/2 to 4 years old he has had it from new, his son drove it for a while to try and charge it but it seems to be getting worse with heater and door locking now playing up so I reckon its...

I have the pipe and the olive joint for the manifold end but cannot get new nuts for the manifold end as they might well be a hassle to get off I want to get spare nuts first, anyone know the size or part number, thanks in advance.

Does anyone know if front brake cylinders are the same as a normal Series 3 Landy I suspect mine are seized on one side as the wheel is tight to turn, will see If I can get it apart tomorrow. My first look underneath and the rear diff has no level plug, I reckon they have fitted a different...

I foolishly took the 6 month mot extension and now have to fix the warning lights and get the MOT, why I didn't do this all before? Ahhh! Last winter I replaced the strg hub ball joints, the sensors had to be drilled out and brit part ones were fitted, the reluctor ring on the RH side was...

I have a S3 24v lightweight that has been converted to diesel, just had a look around it and the engine seems to be 24 electric and the lights but just wondered what is 12v as it has a small fuse box in the engine compartment marked up as 12v. The wiring on it is one hell of a mess and it will...

Hi, Is the Ser 3 Military 24V chassis different from a civilian one or different in a minor way where a chassis change out would be possible or even possible to adjust the civilian chassis to suit. Murray.

Is a S3 lightweight devalued by having a later diesel fitted or is it the all round condition that matters more than having a diesel lump fitted, I understand they were all petrol originally and the S2A I had years ago was? Further question the top of the bulkhead around the vent flaps does that...

I have just changed the steering knuckle ball joints including new sensors, left hand side first and It went ok, did 70 miles Saturday and all was well, changed the right side yesterday and today and new sensor as well, went to test tonight and when moving the brake pedal is right at the top and...

Has anyone had any success with the kits on flea bay and the like, I know they don't look as strong as the Rave ones, I just wondered if the adapters would fit? I can make a hydraulic puller up but looks like the adapters would take a lot of time on the lathe. Murray.

Since the engine issues last year all has gone ok, cold start on the button, hot start a bit of cranking but not over excessive, last week during the hot weather with 90% full tank I noticed it needed a bit more cranking when hot, then on Wednesday when really hot it ran ok in the morning towing...

Since I've had this 2001 P38 for 4 years the LCD display has been only partially visible, but the heater has worked fine and just required a bit of nous to get the right heat setting, I don't use the AC and it doesn't have a belt on it anyway but now the drivers side up down rocker switch is...
