    Range rover vogue L322 2004 with pioneer avic f30bt ?

    just to resurrect this thread a little. i have a 2002 vogue and have read about upgrading to the 'mk4 nav' but i'm a little uninformed as to what bits are 'changed out'. am i correct in thinking i would need a pair of units, ie the old cd rom player in boot comes out, and the new mk4 dvd rom...

    welding gas cylinders.. rental charges dodge.

    hi, i hope i'm posting this info in the correct section. if you have a land rover, then you will need to weld it one day, and anyone that has a MIG welder or oxy acetylene kit will know that you have to have an account with a firm like BOC to use their cylinders. Trouble is, when yuo have got...

    Buying P38

    I had a nice p38 -an autobiography v8. some of these look awesome, some lesser models look a bit plasticy inside. there are so many problems with these cars, you have to be prepared to read a lot of these pages. the battery will go flat, (modify-able) the suspension will play up, (again not too...

    l322 trim levels query, are you familiar with marque?

    Well, my thread has received a good few readings, and i thank those that have replied. To me it would seem the HSE is probably what i need, although if the vogue was at a similar price, if not too high(er), i would go for the vogue. To me the basic car itself is the main reason to buy one. and...

    l322 trim levels query, are you familiar with marque?

    yeah yeah, i'm not gonna drive it on mud. i had a rangie, ive had a couple, in my time, i've got a disco now, -but i dont grow a beard, or wear camourflage caps, or boast about my 90 inch chassis, airlock diffs, or descent angles. this thread is about which trim level to choose, not...

    l322 trim levels query, are you familiar with marque?

    no not yet, when you have driven for a few weeks in a range rover. you get used to it. when you climb in a disco, even with the leather and active ride, there's no room to swing a cat. the td5 sounds like a toolbox being kicked down the stairs. and it just so heavy. the newer rangie (l322) is...

    RR Vogue 4.6 & Tornado Chip?

    if you are gonna lpg it you must get a multipoint system, the older singlepoint ones are crap. i bought a gems 4.0 with lpg. the singlepoint it came with strangled the car of power. and caused backfiring. the air intake is reduced from 70mm to 45mm to mix the gas! -took it off, and it went...

    where to start......

    he's right, the p38 has a reputation for a lot of gremlins. the fusebox is a common one (in the engine bay) a relay near the front goes high resistance. it gets wet from condensation, then bakes itself to buggery. when you change it you need to be aware of the BECM. you need things like the...

    Where is all the water going??

    Is your rangie a p38 V8? if it is, you have to consider that the block has gone pourous. read the pages on v8engines.com to understand the 'qualities' or the rover engine, and it's symptoms. my old one lost water at the heater matrix 'o' rings, they are located on the drivers side footwell on...

    l322 trim levels query, are you familiar with marque?

    hi i sold my old p38, got a disco2 (es7)-bloody thing weighs a ton, or rather two and a half. and its not quite what i wanted. I'm gonna rob a bank and buy myself 2002/2003 v8. What i want to know is, if i went for a Vogue or an HSE what i would be missing/gaining. i want a java black...

So without a caravan i set out with family onboard and we tested a couple of p38 diesels. and auto, -blimey, felt like the invisible...
