I also changed my air bags using Datateks guide,bearing in mind i'm no great mecanic(since i've had my RR i'm learning quick!)i found it quite easy. The only problem i had was getting the old rear ones out,in the end i just cut the bags in half and pulled them out. So i would recommend you...

so well and truly ****ed it now!!:mad:,managed to get the bumper off,got everything loose went to undo the bolt that holds the pipes where they go into the filter and the bloody bolt wouldn't give,so moved the pipe over a bit and it's snapped the clip thats made of aluminium/crap,bolt still...

ok,my bits arrived this morning so have spent the last hour trying to remove the A/C fans but can't reach the bottom two bolts,can the fans be removed without taking the bumper off? (i have had a look at doing this on RAVE but my bumper looks nothing like the one portrayed,oh and it's 45°in the...

cheers,i'll go to the local motor shop here and see what they got,i've noticed that the lower pipe going to the cooler is covered in oil and from what i read on here that will probably need replacing as well

ok,thanks for that,just one thing,what is Pus Gas,and why not WD40?

Thanks for the response Datatek,i thought as much,so how did you get access,did you just take the fans of and move the condenser to one side?

Hi all,i've got an oil leak at the front of my P38 DSE,done a search on here and i'm pretty sure it's the oil cooler(leak is predominanly on drivers side but can be in a line along the rad and can see oil on the corner of cooler),now as far as i can see to get access the cooler i have to remove...

I agree with WAMMERS,i've had my DSE for over 2 years now and have had no problems as far as the engine goes(its a 1997 model and still runs sweet as),i get 25 mph on average so quite reasonable for a car of that stature,and with lpg you've got a tank in the boot which restricts loading space

I live in the deep south(Herault) and have done the trip a few times in the Rangie,never had a problem(why would i?:rolleyes:),the French road system is the finest i've ever driven on but of course they have to go and complicate things by letting the French use it,so don't let them phase...

you can set the window by tricking it if you've got a dodgy window mechanism,go through the procedure of setting the window and just before the window touches the top, block it with a piece of wood or something(this tells the car that it has reached the top,you might have to do it quite a few...

i got mine done by someone on here(ANDY.R) but there are a few who can do it(IRISHROVER is another)but before doing that make sure that is the problem,it might just need the eka code putting in,there are people on here who can give you more precise info on the subject I got my code from the...

sorry to hear your woes,i had this problem last year,my BECM locked down(the BECM is the cars brain if you like,it manages all the electrics on the car but someone on here will give a better description no doubt)and had to take it out and have it un-locked Are you getting "engine disabled"...

is that a Corgi on the back seat in picture 5?

Hi there PAYNEY,would love to know how you got on with changing your alternator as i have to undertake the same service on my P38 this weekend,just wanted to know of any pratfalls i should lookout for,i've changed alternators on other vehicles before but given the complexities of these cars you...

thanks for the replies,i'll pass the info on,he's only had the car a few months so probably needs to do all the fluid changes to be on the safe side as to wheather it's a production or modification,he suspects it' a mod

Hi there,i'm posting this for my neighbour who has a problem with his auto gearbox,car works fine upto 30 mph but then won't go up into the next gear(downhill it will though,and reverse fine);any ideas? it's a v8 Defender 90,1989 model thanks

nope,no squeeling around corners and cruises at 90 on the motorway without any vibration or rumbling,i'm in France so drive on the right hand side of the road so SPUDH's suggestion doesn't apply

thanks,looks like a visit to the garage,up until now i've managed to do most repairs myself but when you mention lasers were into the realms of sci-fi,so i'll leave it to the experts this time

i've got the same problem,drivers side, the outside of the tyre is being worn down,had the tracking done March,any ideas?

Very funny REWMER,typical Clactonian humour(of which i am all too familar with being from Colchester originaly),the door was fully closed and fully shut,i was lucky i was at home unlike your friend who's jimmy riddle cost more than a penny
