Thanks wammer, I had read somewhere that it should have a dipstick on that year but I couldn't find it.

I may take you up on that offer Datatek, me and auto electrical works don't always see eye to eye shall we say. ;) That said I will have a look at Rave. Where does the temperature sensor go/fit? I rightly or wrongly assumed that it would be in the cooler.

I will definitely be replacing the cooler for one with a fan, I assume the wiring will need to be retro fitted somehow?

Its an R reg 1997 There is no dipstick on the gearbox and nor is there a fan on the cooler.

When the filler nut was removed, about 2 liters came out of that... That's interesting about a fan on the oil cooler, it doesn't have a fan that I've noticed, I would definitely like one there though if possible?

So, last night we did some tests, I would be interested to know your thoughts. 1st test was to take it for a run, no hills or anything, just within walking distance. It was fine so I then went further afield and up a few hill's, 1 hill in particular was Jenkin road in Sheffield which is quite...

I believe so, the guy that did it for me is a Mazda tech now but he used to be a Land Rover tech and worked on the P38's for quite a few years.

I don't think so as it tried to move but just couldn't, I suppose a bit like if you try to set off in 3rd gear in a manual.

No, the oil is a dark red colour. When comparing new oil with the stuff that's in, there is a difference, as in the used is darker but its definitely not black. Prior to this, all fluids had been changed, probably less than 500 miles ago.

Hello all, I have a P38 which me and my dad bought for the purpose of towing, last week whilst my dad was towing a boat, approximately 2.5 ton he started to lose drive whilst going up hill, shortly after noticing what he described as a manual clutch slipping he lost drive altogether. (at the...

Thank you. I have sent you a direct message with the details on.

Thanks wammers. You've just saved me a few quid and a few more headaches. I really don't want to give up as the chassis on her is very solid and it doesn't have the corrosion either in the electrical connections that a lot seem to suffer from.

Hi, I think I have the wrong becm on my P38. Is there a difference between the petrol and diesel becm? The car was a none runner when we bought it, I did have the becm looked at and it now starts however pretty much everything else doesn't work, or doesn't work properly. Purely by chance...

That interesting, What's the difference? I bought these red/orange ones below and up until replacing these I did have some movement...

Thanks Wammers. I will order a rebuilt kit.

So, checked the O/S height sensor and the socket behind the A post, this was corroded so have cleaned it all up. Unfortunately it hasn't made a difference. One thing I have noticed now it doesn't move off the bump stops at all is that if I remove the pipe of the top of the water separator...

Ok I'm sorry, I wont mention Sp****S again, I just got a little frustrated and angry and said something I didn't mean in the heat of the moment... :( ;) I do already have the EAS software but after watching your video I haven't quite been using it right so thanks for that and I will have...

Really hoping you guys can help on this as I am at a loss. I have 1997 P38 Auto and the air suspension seems to have a mind of its own. For the most part when I start the engine the back will go right up in the air while the front drivers side wheel goes to what I would say is a normal height...

She runs! Sort of. Ended up sending the becm and ecu to callrova. (Have to say, exceptional and swift service.) They sorted out the issues with these for me but i had to rig up a test diesel tank as it now looks like the fuel pump in the diesel tank may also be faulty but the main thing is me...

So that's the new battery installed. I have the key code lockout message on the dash. Will wait for the message to disappear then try both the EKA codes that are written in the book. I can't unlock the passenger door, not sure if this will mean the EKA's won't work?
