Thanks Nathan, I just wanted to say thankyou to everyone who'd lent their expertise to help me out over last few years...

Well, after 18months of LR ownership, comprising of a Discovery V8i and a '95 P38 4.0SE Rangie, i've recently become LR-free. I loved both cars and regret selling both in their own ways: But the Disco was a cramped fit for my 6'4" frame and the Rangie developed a taste for BECM's that my wife...

Thanks to everyone for all you help and advice. I took my BECM to Callrova but it was too old and too far gone to repair. Long story short: I sold the car as a non-runner to a friend who bought a re-con unit from Callrova and the car is now up and running and back to rude health! So, I am now...

Many Thanks :-)

Mgmayo, I'm having a similar nightmare with my '95 P38 and have tried my EKA code with no affect. Can you explain about this additional 4 turns to start it off? Do u need to take the key out of the lock in between? MAny Thanks.

That car is a dark or gunmetal grey, it's the same as mine but often shows up darker in photographs. It's very handsome!

Would the "Lite" version suffice or do I need the full monty? Is there a web-site to buy these from?

Rick, I was told to contact you by "J the range" as he thought you might be able to help? I've got a '95 4.0SE P38 manual which I love but has been sat for nearly 2 months due to the new arrival of an Audi A8. When I went to start it the battery was flat but after re-charging it has come up with...

Hi Wammers and J the Range, I'd be bloody grateful for any help you can offer 'cos the wife is starting to get a little fed up of 3 cars parked on the drive, none of which she can drive! I'm happy to pay any costs and even a drink for anyone prepared to travel to the wilds of Kent...

This all sounds very scary and expensive for a flat battery! Juast want to get her running to have one last drive before she goes up for sale... For some reason my wife has declined the offer of learning to drive in my P38. I don't understand it personally, I mean it is the manual version...

I'll try the battery disconnect thing.... The EKA code doen't work, it did for the change of battery in the key-fob, but not for this :-(( The fault display says various things about front windows and then say the engine has been immobilised....Aaaaarrrrgghhh!!!!!! What does this...

Is that the "turn the key 4 times this way, then so-many that way etc" business?

My lovely P38 4.0SE ('95) has been sat for about 5 weeks due to a holiday and the arrival of an Audi A8, so when I came to give her an day out the battery was well and truly flat!:doh: I've charged her up but now the key-fob won't open the door and the car won't start due to an "engine...

Hi, I know it's been a while but I wondered how you got on with towing with your re-mapped Td5? I'm thinking of buying one and having it re-mapped so am curious as to how you got on? Thanks, jsf79.

Just put 40litres of Tesco super U in, it's 99 ron! Whoopee!!!!

I Was only worried that it might cause the cylinders to run hotter that's all, sounds fairly unanimous that it's ok though? As I said earlier, the difference is vasat, far more than highly tuned sports cars I've tried it in before (200sx turbo, volvo T5, Honda Prelude Vtec et al). Whoopeee!!!

I've just put £30 of Esso Super Unleaded into my '95 RR 4.0 manual and cannot believe the difference!! The car is smoother beyond belief, more powerfull, runs more evenly from tick-over all the way through and has got rid of minor hesitation when accelerating from low revs. It's great!! Does...

I had Vredestein Sesanta SUV tyres on my Touareg and a colleague ran then on his VW too. Mine were on 17" and his were 20" wheels. The Sesanta is a road biased SUV tyre with a very unusual tread pattern designed by Guigario. In fairness it wasn't exceptional off road but on road was awesome...

I'm in quite an ideal position to coment here, although I stress it's from a position purely of experience not mechanical knowledge. I own a VW Touareg 4x4 which is currently in the garage having an engine re-built. As a temporary replacement I bought a V8 Disco 3.9 on a '94. It was a...

Thanks for the great advice, it's running Pirelli Scorpions on the front which are due for replacement any time, and Grabbers on the back. I've heard that the grabbers are not good on mud and can understeer, any thoughts? I run Hancooks on my Touareg, does anyone run them on a Range? Many...
