    P38 Recovery Points

    A while back I got my P38 stuck on its belly. Firstly attached a normal rope to the towing eye - it snapped the rope. We then tried a kinetic rope, which did not budge the P38. Second try with the kinetic rope, and full bore from the trooper trying to recover me, broke the towing eye on the...

    Yes you should be able to do the same test with the multimeter with them in situe, just a bit tight getting to them!

    Range Rover 2.5 Dse Not Starting

    2 ways to do it with them removed. One is with a battery n jump leads, connect negative to the large thread, and positive to small threaded part, and the end will glow red/white hot if they are working. Another is to put a multimeter on it, on the setting that beeps when there is a circuit...

    Range Rover 2.5 Dse Not Starting

    I think mine is all sorted now. I took the new glow plugs out and put the old ones back in and bam! fires straight away and same this morning! Tested the new glow plugs, and only 2 out of the 6 were working. These were cheap chineese ones from Island-4x4.com. The originals were NGK. So its...

    Range Rover 2.5 Dse Not Starting

    Cheers for that. But no joy, it was already down, and still wont start! Could a faulty crank sensor stop it from starting? I did unplug it the other day changing the starter motor, but fired up fine afterwards, then did not fire at all the next morning. Is there anyway of testing the crank...

    Range Rover 2.5 Dse Not Starting

    I have the same problem on my 2.5 DT, 1996. Will not start now, just cranking over. Smoke/diesel smell coming from exhaust when cranking so must be getting fuel? Where and what is this reset button you mention? Would this be on a 96 model? Cheers

    P38 Sunroof tilt & closing problem

    I have exactly the same problem on mine, this happened about 8 or 9 months ago. It was like it for a few days in the rain, and didnt leak into the cab, just went down the gutters. I took the plastic covers off each side, and managed to lever something toward the front of the Rangey, pushing the...

    P38 Harmon Kardon

    On this subject, is it possible to fit the HK system (changer/sub etc) to a base DT? Are the connectors already on the loom or would it need the wiring through the full length? I do have a LR head unit that came with the RR but I replaced it with a Sony unit with Bluetooth handsfree.

    P38 Range Rover

    Ditto! You'd be better off getting a Suzuki Samurai or a Jimny (sorry for the swearing!) if you wanna start off with a 4x4. At 17 I paid near a grand on insurance for a Samurai. I've had the P38 DT since 21, (23 now), and the last insurance was around £750 including breakdown and any...

    P38 2.5DT Fan / Radiator

    Hi All, I was out in Salisbury Plains on the weekend and noticed the Rangey temp was in the red. Looked under the bonnet and all the fins on the viscous fan had snapped off, also piercing the rad in several places! Rad weld was no good so it was recovered home. I recall reading on here...

    Serpentine belt tensioner

    Yes, you can feed the belt through without removing the fan. I did move the power steering reservoir out the way, giving more clearance for the lever bar on the tensioner I'm not sure about tensioner replacement intervals, but I have no record of mine ever being changed and it's just about to...

    Wtf

    Its from your sunroof drain I believe. See Rave wsm part 2, page 384. (or section 76, page 68). I remember seeing it when I was looking how to fix my sunroof cos it didn't shut proper. That was about 6 months ago and its still broke!!

    Cleaning Your Range Rover

    I wait until the heavy rain and go puddle bashing, then finish off by going through a couple of fords! It seems to do the trick.

    does anyone take their P38 offroading?

    I'm always taking mine off road. I'm running BFGoodrich A/T's on my '96 DT. I live on a farm, take it down green lanes, Salisbury Plains now again, fords and floods, Wales at xmas (tho was cut short by wheel bearing issues!), and this Sunday, March 2nd, I'm taking it up to a playday at Childrey...
