Got it datatek. I don't suppose you know how much a new crankshaft sensor would be and if I'd be able to do it myself i.e. is it accessible? Whats the BBS site, a technical website?

Cheers Datatek. Yeah the engine is totally stopping, ignition lights on, no power steering etc. Then once I halt the car, put it into P then turn the key, its fine again, then off I go.

I'm getting really threaders with this. I have a 2000 (W) Rangey DHSE and whether I'm driving on the autobahn (I'm a soldier living in germany) or through town. I lose power, 'gearbox fault' comes on, I have so far on every occasion managed to coast to the hard shoulder. I turn off the...

Hi guys. I'm reading your syptoms with interest. I have a 2000 (W) Rangey DHSE and this does this to me regularly, whether I'm driving on the autobahn (I'm a soldier living in germany) or through town. I lose power, 'gearbox fault' comes on, I have so far on every occasion managed to coast to...

ah yeah for the aircon condenser? Remember now.

Hi, can anyone give me some pointers? Driving down the motorway at speed and all of a sudden I heard a pop and the temp gauge went through the roof. I pulled over, had a look under the bonnet and the RHS rad top hose had an 18 inch split in it. I managed to get it off the road, did a repair and...

How did you know hooded claw, ha ha. There's some knackered lannys on camp, I'll have a butchers tomorrow, thanks fellas.

It didn't work. I've taken the battery off and put it on charge. I could put a work battery on it but those things would rip the wiring to shreds lol.

thanks for your quick replies guys. Data, I'm gonna give it a jump with the wifes mini, its a diesel so should have the power. If that doesn't work I'll take the battery out and charge it overnight. J, thanks for your offer but I now live in Germany (in the Army) so it would be a bit far for you...

Yep, thats it, engine disabled. The battery was bought new last year form Halfords (surely it can't have died that quick) and all the clamps are clean and tight.

Hi, can anyone help? My W reg P38 won't start. Over the past few weeks when I turn the key the engine has laboured to start. Today it started once, then I get just the clicking sound under the bonnet. The battery is fine (11.7 on a mutimeter) and the glow plugs were replaced about 2 months ago...

I had the same prob on my P38 DHSE. I went on Ebay and bought a kit and re-set the EAS myself. LR charge about £70 for this. The whole kit cost me about 25 quid Ithink. Its well simple, put the disc in a laptop, select the com port you want to use and follow the instructions that are supplied. I...

Hi, can anyone help. I've just replaced the LHS blend motor in my 2000 P38 DHSE (for the second time in 18 months, getting quite good at it now, took about 30 mins). Anyway, I can't get the glovebox to lock. I've bought two new cables (in case I knacker one) with a view to replacing the one...

Hi superman, when you said it was a piece of p*ss is it just a case of old lights out and new lights in? Or is that too good to be true? Andy243?

Hi all. I was reading a thread on here (which had pics also) of how to repair/replace the washer jets on Rangeys. Interesting I thiought so checked mine today. GUESS WHAT????????? WHAT???????? I bloody went and snapped one of the nozzles/jets off under the bonnet. ****! Its true, they are...

Hi, go on Ebay Germany (german for headlights is scheinwerfer). I've just picked up a set of LHD lights for my P38 for £140, very cheap. If you're after new ones there's currently an advert on UK Ebay for new ones at something like £280 for a set. Regards Andy243.

Hi, theres a bloke who advertises on Ebay, he's an ex LR technician. JUst go on Ebay and dod a search for Ranger Rover Service and he should pop up. Regards andy243

When I started the car the other night there was a burning smell inside the car then all the instrument lights went dim. The only lights that stayed on were the ones on the LCD on the HEVAC unit. The next day everything was fine less for all the individual lights on the HEVAC unit such as...
