I changed from a 55 plate D3 to a 06 L322 with the BMW 3.0ltr engine two years ago and it's been fine. I tow a twin axle caravan every season and last year went to Holland as well as sites in the UK. I look after the vehicle, I do not go off road or experiment with it. I use it as an ordinary...

After looking at various threads and taking live data with a Hawkeye on a Thor engine I have discovered that the MAF is reading low, 14.75 at idle and 62.50 at 3000 rpm off load. My question is can I reset the adaptive setting with a Hawkeye and how is it done and do I really need to after...

Hi All For some reason my P38 fails to shift into 4th gear except at just over 50mph it selects 4th and then very quickly selects lockup. All other gear shifts appear normal although I have noticed at light throttle it changes into 2rd at about 2000rpm and then to 3rd in a normal time. I put the...

Thanks for the information very useful to know. I'm going to have a go at the w/e if we haven't floated away. MORE RAIN.

Thanks for the info. However, your answers have thrown up two more questions. Why do the pollen filters need to be fitted? Where is the pollen filter drains located? Thanks.

Hi to all. A quick question to the experts. I've done the search but not found my answer. Replaced my filter covers due to water leaking into the car, drivers side via the heater vent. Took the filter cover off and found water inside the aperture where the pollen filter goes. Removed the wet...

Spoke to a LR dealer in Exeter yesterday about using a battery conditioner when the vehicle is not in use e.g. extended periods of time. They gave the thumbs up for the conditioner but restated the fact not to charge the vehicle battery when connected to the vehicle, due to electrical spikes. I...

When i got my L322 the handbrake was not good at all. It couldn't hold the vehicle when still in drive. I deglazed the shoes and readjusted as per the book which is, from drum lock, back off the adjuster eight clicks. It is alot better but still not good. I read that it should be fully on with...

Done the same as wammers, seals them a treat.

I fitted the same about a month ago. Centre box appeared to be ok, I did compare it with the one I was removing. However, the rear silencers were not as good. The o/s/r pipe and box went up ok but the n/s/r was a pig. The rear support on the silencer had been welded in the wrong position, the...

Hi All I want to replace the o/s/f window glass due to severe scratching from, I presume a diamond ring when someone cleaned the window. I will get one from a scapper and what I want to know, is the factory tint colour all the same, I don't mean the privacy glass. Thanks Roger

If you give your VIN number to your local LR parts dept they will give you the trim colour. I did this with Taunton LR, very helpful. Also I've never used Gliptone but I have restored various cars and I use "Furniture Clinic". You can see them demonstrate there work on "youtube" or google their...

I,ve had 3 Classic RR and they all had a transmission whine. It wasn't loud, just a back ground noise. It would come in at a certain speed and then disappear as you accelerated or slowed down beyond that speed. I now have a P38 which is new to me and I,m still learning it's querks but I have...

I've just fitted four new Britpart discs with Mintex pads from Island 4x4. The discs fitted well with no problems. I have also fitted a Britpart exhaust it was a heavy guage steel and look ok. However the N/S/R silencer hangers were set wrong so I had to break and reweld them in the correct...

Looks very good JerryXt. In my opinion the P38 is a very attractive vehicle even comparing it with the newer versions. I'm abit of a purist in that I convert back to standard eg my P38 came with a SS sport exhaust so I replaced it back to a standard one etc. Put the SS one on feabay and it went...

Hi to all Is their a simple check to see if the blend motors are operating ok. I have, to my knowledge no issue at present. If they do go faulty does it show as a defect on the screen. Thanks Roger

HI James Changed mine a few weeks ago. I followed Rave system and it wasn't bad. Abit long winded just to change a foam filter. But I did purchase new clips and screws just in case they were broken or rusty which turned out to be a good move.

Hi. A question for our more experienced owners. I have no problems, to my knowledge, with either component on my P38. Is there any merit in being proactive and renewing seals and such like as a preventive measure or is it a case of letting sleeping dogs lye.

Hi tony2 I'll be disconnecting mine in the next few days to replace the starter motor. 2001 4.6 Vogue. What did Mr Smith do to regain control of the key. Thanks

Thanks for that JohnP38 I will try tomorrow.
