Thanks Nodge68 for your reply. I think there's more room in the TD4 engine bay. Anybody who works on the Freelander 2 that you could recommend near South West London?

Hi all, Has anybody (or their mechanic) in the UK replaced the ancillary/auxiliary belt on the 3.2 engine? My LR2 has just done 103,000 miles. The belt is supposed to be replaced at 10 years or 105,000. There are a number of posts on other sites from the USA but I wondered if anybody had done it...

Hi, I've been cleaning up my P38 possibly to sell. It has been using coolant lately but the temperature is firmly at 12 o'clock. Engine has 121,000 miles, FSH. I decided to get the engine and engine bay cleaned up. (I appreciate this has it's risks but I took it to a place that does this all...

"What's that noise? Did you hear it? Is it the engine?"

Hi, First up please: What metal are the rocker covers made of? When new, were they painted or coated? What's the best way to strip old coating and get them looking good? Are the ones from Rimmer Bros any good? thanks (in advance) for any replies. Alan

Thanks - I think I've got one somewhere... Well both gates are locked but I'll give that a go! Thanks.

Thanks all for your ideas. Now does anybody know how to get inside the tailgate bottom from inside? (The carpet trim buttons are at the bottom covered by that plastic plate!)

Thanks Grrrrrr. Interesting, because I've occasionally had a RH FRONT DOOR OPEN on the message centre when the drivers door is definately shut! Will investigate...

Thanks RangeRoller dt I'll check that out. However the button movement seems normal - just that there's no click of the solenoid

1997 Range Rover P38 4.6 HSE Hi, I thought I'd bought the gremlin-free P38. Everything worked, didn't eat batteries etc. Until today when I went to unlock the tailgate. Pressed the button, reassuring noise, the top opened, pressed the button again for the bottom gate, nothing. The spring...

Cheers - Is the inlet inside the wheel arch or in the engine bay?

Hi Henry, Thanks for your reply - but what do you mean by 'IIRC' ?

Hi, Where is the point of entry for the pre-filter engine air? i.e. before it reaches the air filter box on a 1997 P38 4.6 V8 ? thanks Alan

Thanks for that – will apply the elbow grease. After all, the unit has been in there since a LR master technician bolted it in 16 years ago!

Hi Silver Parrot, I removed the 8mm bolts. The mystery unit moves from side to side. However the DSP won't budge. Is there another bolt or am I missing something?

4.4 V8 with LPG. Nearly all sorted - apart from the DSP issue!

Thanks SilverParrot. I saw another post that sounded like there was a third impossible-to-get-at bolt. But I'll proceed with caution. BTW I've got in contact with the bloke on eBay that repairs DSP and shown him the photos - and he says he can repair it Thanks

brianp38dse & SiverParrot Thanks for your insights. I had a look at the DSP. 2 sockets had some corrosion on them (see pics) Also there seems to be another unit bolted to the DSP casing. any ideas what that is? The TV module. How easy is it to get the DSP out? thanks guys

Hi - Ranger Rover L322 2003 4.4 V8 The audio started cutting out a few weeks ago. Then the car has gone silent for good. I noticed when the problem was intermittent, that the DSP appeared in black, but became white when the sound came back. Now the DSP doesn't even appear at all on the...

Over the years on my P38 4.0 V8, 2.5dHSE and recently my L322 4.4 V8 I have suffered power drains. On the P38s they just flattened the battery. On the L322 this meant the usual litany of AC, power steering and air suspension faults – as well as flattening the battery. Initially, installing a...
