Hi guys, well after 12 months of almost trouble free (ecu lock out, exhaust blow, sticky rear caliper slider) motoring in my second/first drivable p38 4.0, I thought I may aswell take the plunge this week as I'm off work and sort out some niggly jobs. Mainly one of the oil leaks (I hope). Looks...

Hi guys, I've just been offered a Landrover 90, its been off the road for a couple of years and in need of a bit of restoration. My only concern is the identification of the vehicle as the number plates are missing and the farmer has lost the documentation for it. Ive got a chassis number, and...

thanks Ill check it out tomorrow. Can I see the valley seal leaking with the inlet off?

Hi guys my p38 v8 has got an oil leak like niagra. It seems to leak after driving it. I had a look underneath and it seems to be flowing from over the top of the gearbox bellhousing. Any hints to what lies above the gearbox? Or is it just possibly my rocker cover gaskets?

Thanks Datatek, will let you know when Im changing it. Just been out in it, was riding on the bump stops when I pulled it off the drive. Left it on the road and activated high mode, which after a few seconds it obliged, so looks like my compressor is ok at the moment. Thought I'd go and put some...

How about changing the compressor?

Thought as much. Think I'm buying them from Island 4x4? Can I get away with just changing them? Or has the ride heights got to be reset?

p38.

Hi guys, haven't been on here a while, purely due to being too busy, also I have neglected the range rover for a couple of weeks, and as it sat there the rear suspension has decided to sag its arse and by the looks refusing to rise. Just had to jump start it, and left it running for about 15...

Right, think Ive got the plot now, so basically it could be a case of the ecu loses communication with the becm? And if so the becm would be unlocked through the key fob but because the becm cant find the ecu to say its had the key code the ecu will still be immobilised hence why I wont receive...

If the engine is immobilised, wont it show up on the dash as being immobilised? I will check for the p displayed next time I look. I know today I tried it in 4 wheel drive park and still the same. Then later on as I was changing it back to 2 wheel drive it it said select nuetral. Obviously as I...

So basically my becm is knackered?????

No the engine wont start when you power the starter motor

had a look today and removed the starter relay. I had two plus feed and two earth feeds. I then power probed the terminal five on the fuse box that was reading an earth. The starter engaged. So from the fuse board to the starter everything works. Before anyone says I have swapped the relay a...

Havent checked the fuses yet, just swapped some relays about as it was dark

Dont know, ignition comes on and Ive resynced the fob when I had the battery disconnected to remove the starter. I done that by locking it with the key and pressing the lock button, then unlocked it with the key and pressing the unlock button. Ive had engine immobilised on the dash previously a...

Right, Ive had a quick look at the relays in the engine compartment and swapped the ones around that my autodata said are for the starter realy and ignition circuit relay. And still nothing?? Theres alot of clicking happening in there when the ignitions turned to crank but naff all else. Have I...

datatek, thats what makes me think its ignition related, also the barrel sometimes wouldnt take the spare key I have for it, and was a right bitch with the steering lock on it.

Also, dont know whether its supposed to say it, but when you open the door it says ignition key in on the display and when you take the key out??? Whether that is related to the problem???
