Got a hard fault with my suspension after putting it in off road height to unload a car off the trailer, suspension went higher than I've ever seen an L322 and broke. I've let the air out now but as it was a hard fault it's gonna need a reset. Is there anybody around the Manchester area with an...

I had a MAF go bad about 2500 miles ago which caused the engine to misbehave badly so I unplugged it and it ran fine....... for 2500 miles! Anyway, I bit the bullet and bought a new genuine MAF and fitted it. Problem now is it seems to be not getting enough fuel and has thrown system lean...

Anyone know what this is gunked into the back of my drivers side cylinder head (the black rubbery half round thing)? Its leaking oil and making an unholy mess of the street (its between the rocker gasket and the head). Need to know what it is unless it comes as part of a rocker cover gasket kit...

Got a strange tap which made itself known when I put 15/40 semi synthetic castrol Gtx in my 2003 4.4 Rangey. I only really noticed it after a week or so and a week later have now done an oil and filter change using 5w/30 fully synthetic but the tapping remains. Changing the oil has cured the...

Been having a play with my 2003 L322 and decided to use the AV in on my Digital TV box. Its one of those £200 ebay jobs that plugs into the factory analogue TV unit and receives freeview via the factory AV setting. Anyhows, I have an android TV box in my house that runs of 5 volts so I decided...

Do we have any legal genius' on the forum? From the beginning: Bought my L322 4.4 Vogue on 13th March 2015 from a 2nd hand dealer (showroom) and did not take out any warranty on it. After a couple of weeks I noticed a wheel 'shimmy' and investigated to find a faulty lower forward control arm...

Can anybody help me to identify this mirror. I have tried to find one on ebay and also looked on Google images and can't find one that has the same fixings to the adjustment motor that I need. I would also like to replace it with a normal non auto dimming mirror if I can. Thanks, pic attached.

Hi, long time no post from me as I got rid of the P38 a long time ago. Got myself a 2004 Vogue a few weeks ago and just had a go at the pixel fix. Worked like a charm 1st time and I'm so proud of myself I have to tell everybody lol. Did the job by replacing the ribbon cable and ordered bulbs at...

Not that I suppose anybody missed me but I gave up with the P38, it was a dog that needed more than I was willing to put into it. Fast forward to March 2015, just bought myself an L322 4.4 with a BRC LPG conversion and it also has a 2010 facelift and I love it so here I am, back trawling the...

At the risk of this post getting raped for posting about about a head gasket, its more of a post about supply rather than a problem. Cheapo composite head gasket split and blowing on the air side into the 'valley' between the 2 banks. Question is where should I get a good quality replacement...

Anyone off here? Drove past it on Friday, looked like a Rover 45 had gone straight under the back of the P38. Rover was toast, front of the car was up near the screen. P38 on the whole didn't look as bad although I suspect it had taken heavy damage due to the rear end being sat in the air. Lady...

OK, after nearly 300 posts of useless ****e trying to find fault with new parts, I've resigned myself to the probability that my cam bearings are shot. The point of this post is for the DIYers, those who do the work on their driveways. It slipped my mind to check these.....hell, I didn't even...

Still not 100% happy with my donkey so gonna change it then rip it apart while running a 2nd hand engine. Trouble is, there seems to be more THOR engines about than GEMS engines. Is it just a case of swapping the inlet manifold then away I go or would it just drop in and run as is? Cheers.

Can anyone here help me with a rocker shaft bolt for my 4.0 P38. I tried the stealers but they only come in packs of 10 and aren't very cheap so here I am pleading for help lol. Thanks in advance.

As some of you know, I fitted a new cam and lifters to my 4.0 P38 about a month ago. After fitting, they never were what I would call quiet, 50 miles later, one had stuck in, causing a replacement. Now a month and 800 miles later, they still never fully quietened down, at least one, maybe more...

Is this bad? The changes are a bit erratic, especially 2nd to 3rd, between 20 & 30 mph. Look at the pic.

Had a fault since I got it and wondered if the symptoms are common with the standard ABS faults. P38, 4.0 SE 1997. Pull up to a junction from any speed, bakes fine until last 5 - 10 MPH and the brake pedal vibrates every second (ok 1 sec, vibrate 1 sec, like a warped disc but with an ABS type...

As above, they've only done 400 miles but never really quietened down. I did go for budget lifters and a new cam but sure they should be quiet, even if they don't last as long. I stuck 1 gallon of 15/40 CarLube Semi Synthetic and topped up with Castrol GTX 15/40. They get quieter as the engine...

Its coming from under the bonnet, right side. Not belts or pullys as I removed the belts to rule them out. Only happens under load or foot down rev up from idle. It sounds like 2 pieces of metal rubbing together and squeaking and doesn't do it if I drive like Miss Daisy. I've seen a post on...
