Diagnostic/lamda also fine

Hi 4.6 petrol. We have had it running for a good half hr and vehicle been stood in storage for couple of yrs. One thought was an air leak? Vehicle age is 1995 N but engine sound at 162k miles. Plugs and leads etc also done too plus fuel cleaner etc. But still can't seem to get the old girl back...

Hi All, MOT failed on P38 due to emissions. CO reading at 0.53 which is high but HC reading a whopping 1460!!! My local garage is great for MOTs but not equipped for a problem like this - any ideas?

Hi All, I seem to still have an on going problem with my P38A Rangey (4.6 HSE). It has done around 163000 miles and went in for an MOT at my local garage back in February of this year, and has remained there ever since. Everything checks out on the car and we have also done the diagnostics...

Latest is, new fuel/additives didn't work! :( Next idea? New CATS? Yikes!!

Many thanks chaps very helpful thank you

Hi All, I have had my P38 in storage for nearly two years due to what I thought was an issue with a piston misfire but turns out to be plugs/leads! Don't even go there!!! Oddly enough the car actually passed on everything else but failed on emissions which came as a surprise - 25% over the...

It must be a combination of the wet weather, driving through lots of rain etc but not green laning or anything like that but to the drivers side rear of my RR I have the most irritating squeak that is most audible when driving off a bumpy driveway or anything resembling putting pressure on the...

L322 definitely worth it. Make sure you get full history etc and even at highish miles, 10k or just under should get you a good one

Hi all, I finally recovered my old trusty P38 after 18 months storage (kept her locked away as couldn't decide what to do with her at the time) and now need to get into the "system" to reset faults: suspension, windows etc as the whole thing has lost the electronic plot so to speak! I recall...

Hi All, I am thinking about getting a Defender mainly for local trips, occasional towing, dogs, transporting logs etc - a workhorse but also something clean and tidy if possible too. I already own a RR Supercharged V8 but use mainly for long trips/business, so this would be a project or...

Hi, we're there any warning lights/screen messages? When my fuel pump failed I had several :darth_vader:

After all of that, fault now identified to be a faulty fuel pump! Yesterday they thought it was EGR valves, at least the pump a little cheaper!!

Had main dealer insp 2 service a few months ago, doubt it is gearbox!

Hi All, I think I know what could have happened, but had a rather annoying experience at lunchtime today merrily powering down the motorway in my RR 4.2 Supercharged V8 (6yrs old) only to find the power started to drop off and continue to the point where two messages came up, transmission...

Hi Adrian, I've had endless issues with the air conditioning on my P38. Agree, first step will be to get the gas checked. But also get the whole system pressure tested to make sure there is no loss of compression in the condenser. Mine had a hole in it due to a stone unfortunately getting...

Thanks guys. Two fitters came out and in light of tomorrows third fitting, will keep an eye on new trim/adhesive scenario. Will let you know how it goes.......

Autowindscreens this lot

Hi All, quick question - with the analogue tv signal no longer broadcasting and obviously a great facility built into my RR but now redundant, any thoughts on where/how to install free view receiver instead?

Hi All, Can someone possibly shed some light on a frustrating problem replacement windscreens? A few weeks back thanks to some poor driving by someone in front of me, a stone threw upwards and smashed my windscreen. Since then the supplier (a large national well recognised company) replaced...
