Thanks for all your help fellas, I can confidently say that the gearbox is fooked...............anyone got a cheap Discovery for sale??

I can select Reverse and go backwards and only go forwards in 1st?? but anything in between will not engage, no Drive, 3rd or 2nd. Anyone know why??

Thanks for your replies so far. I took the rear wheel off because I thought I heard a leak, but now can't hear one. I can hear and feel the compressor working, but there are some weird clicking noises coming from the compressor area? They stopped and suddenly the suspension lifted?? Any ideas??

It wont pump up, it's at the very lowest it can get. It had been dropping when parked but pumping back up, but now it wont even pump up. Where do I start?

Evening Gents, In think a Non Return Valve might do the trick to stop the fuel running back to the tank and causing starting problems. Where should I install the valve and what diameter is the pipe?? Thanks, Tim.

Don't buy one, i did and i regret the day i did. Listen to your aa friend, one day they will start rr anonymous!!!

Thanks Gents for your thoughts so far. I bought a multimeter today to check the glowplugs, haven't actually checked them yet, it's now too dark. The flow to the fuel filter looks good, so I'm guessing that's not the problem. It does start when hot, although sometimes it is reluctant. Which relay...

Evening Gents. My P38 is reluctant to start when cold. I've put a new Land Rover battery on it, changed the air filter, fuel filter and the glow plugs but still it is reluctant to start. Any ideas??

I run my 200TDi on bio diesel, I tried bio in a TD5 but it ruined an injector, I didn't want to risk anymore damage so I sold it. Now got the chance of a TD5 auto with a knackered engine, what are the chances of fitting a 200 or 300 engine in it?? Will it be at all compatible? Thanks, Tim.

Just had a similar problem to this, and the good old boys on here helped me sort it. I changed the fuel filter, the wrong one had been fitted, I also re-connected the MAP sensor pipe to the fuel filter assembly, it transformed the car. Hope this helps.

Found it cheaper at Paddock, £275...................not bought it yet though

Great reply Everlatesparky, believe me I am smiling and smiling some more!! Got the fuel filter, what do you reckon bout the performance chip??

That's what I thought Wammers, but the dealer selling the Power Box couldn't confirm it would work. I like the idea of increased MPG, means I wont have to make as much! but got to say that more power isn't really needed, especially as the mrs drives it most of the time!

So far so good, processing Bio fuel via a reactor and now weaned RRp38 onto 75% Bio, 25% Dino, no power loss, in fact seems to run better on the Bio, soon to move onto 100% bio. Has anyone experienced problems with running a P38 on Bio? and does anyone know if a PSI Powerbox will work with Bio...

Thanks Wammers and to Gemsdad, the problem is now cured, YEAY!! Put the pipe back on the and what with the correct fuel filter, Hey Presto, good acceleration, great up hills, cruising at 70/80 mph no problem. Still tempted to chip it, but get it weaned onto bio first. What a great forum and...

Well they all say they are slow, I just cant believe how slow. I hope this cures the problem, fingers crossed.

Great, thanks for that, I'll have a look in the morning, is it on the left/right /middle??

Hello Jonny, really would appreciate a copy, I have only owned it, P38, for a week and already I've replaced the transmission sump, transmission oil and fuel filter. I didn't really need a new hobby but................................. Many thanks Tim [email protected]

Evening All, Thanks for all the great advice about my rather slow P38 2.5 diesel automatic, I've come to the conclusion that they are slow and I must get used to it or chip it. I changed the fuel filter, and I believe it might have been fitted with the wrong one. I have noticed a small bore...

Thanks for all the good advice, I have now gathered that the P38 2.5 Range rover automatics are; 1. Underpowered 2. Heavy 3. ****. How I wish I hadn't bought the f*****r Still too late and it suprised me when I aimed it at a very steep hill and bugger me, up it went., so not all bad, and the...
