Hi , I am insured with the Pru, and they did not even ask for a certificate! So a swap to them may help. Bob

Hi Magoo, My fans stopped working and it tracked down to the relays. They were a bit brown around the edges, but when swapped it fired up no problem. Sometimes they heatup and cook. Bob

Hi guys, One last attempt to get my P38 back on the road. I had the r/h head gasket go. Very noisey, and had a cracked manifold as well. My local garage took off the head and sent it for skimming, but did not check the block. Result , one noisey bugger still. So I need a 4.6 short block as mine...

At long last the immobilised P38 roars back to life.! Previouisly it was reversed into by a suicidal fiesta. After the front bumper was replaced, the alarm would go off when locking it with the remote,either one would be the same. Then it immobilisaed itself! Off to LR or was it micky mouse...

hi I have a set of feet and bars from Halfords quite strong but pricy, but cheaper tham LR.

The check engine light is on and the only other fault messages are about the windows not programmed in. Where do I look for the details you need? The print out I have is I think about the BECM Regads Bob

Bob Gontar My 4.6, when it runs again, is lpg. I had the same problem only on gas. Depending on your system, an agent should be able to reprogram it. Check the net for lpgpartners.co.uk and they should help.

The Saga of immobilised p38 Latest update. After a shunt( not my fault) the alarm went off when locking with fob. After a week it stopped and was all right. Then one wet night it would not start. All electrics work but no cranking at all. Tried using the key code in the door, no luck. The land...
