    P38 Engine Clean...?

    The local car wash near me does "engine washes" can't imagine there'd be too many problems otherwise they would be out of business!

    My Rangey is moving home...

    Oh I wish it was my house! It is a derelict college, was somebody's house originally though. Just thought it provided a better setting for the photos! Haha.

    My Rangey is moving home...

    It is a sad day today as I take a deposit for my 1995 Range Rover 4.6 HSE. Thankfully it is only my cousins fiancee who is buying it, so it still remains within the family. She is a lovely car and has served me well, I will no doubt be getting another one of these when my insurance begins to...

    Advice for a Newbie

    I've got a spot on 4.6 up for sale if your interested, not LPG'ed but I can sort you a deal out so you can afford to get it done in your budget. It did have a few strange electrical problems but it was just all down to not enough voltage on the battery, but that's sorted now. No other problems...

    What an overheating day

    May sound silly, but start it up and check battery voltage. Any figures under 12 can give a dodgy display. Was happening in mine, and although my alternator isn't putting out as much as it should there was some volt drop in the cables so I connected 1 directly from + of alternator to bat, and...

    What an overheating day

    When cold, take expansion bottle cap off and switch engine on. Leave it running until it gets up to temperature and then put the heaters on full for about 10 mins. Switch it off and replace cap, that should get rid of any air.

    Faulty blower control

    The knob you turn to speed up/slow down the blowers on my P38 is playing up. If you turn it a click it will come on, and it will continue to increase speed for a few more clicks but then after so many it just stops rather than getting any faster. Then if you wind it further it just starts from...

    Running radio directly from battery.

    Radio has a fuse in the back, so does this mean it's okay to wire directly to the battery? Thanks a lot.

    My RR ran me off the road! Please help!!

    Wonder how much it will cost, was planning on selling it that's all. At least hopefully that's all it should be causing the problems then. :/ Fingers crossed anyway.

    Running radio directly from battery.

    I swapped my battery a couple of weeks ago with a brand new one, so I have the old one sitting in the garage. My radio has died and I was thinking about trying to fix it. Would I be able to run it directly off the battery in the garage to test it or would it go bang? Thanks.

    My RR ran me off the road! Please help!!

    Right, tested across the battery this morning and it read 10.0v. Battery is brand new and has only been in about 2 weeks. Started engine up, tested from alternator positive to battery neg, read 12v. Held engine at 2k revs, didn't really make a difference. Switched off car and read battery...

    My RR ran me off the road! Please help!!

    Thanks for tips so far, I will go out and try them all. How can I tell if it is really overheating or not BTW any tips for that? These beasts are unbelievably hard to turn without power steering!

    My RR ran me off the road! Please help!!

    My P38 starting getting problems a couple of weeks back and it all seemed to spiral from replacing the key battery. I decided I could ignore these problems but last night it has finally took its toll on me when it ran me off the road. I am absolutely stuck, I'm sure the problems electrical but...

    2.5 DSE (BMW) Removing Thermostat

    My insurance renewal is in a month and they want 4 grand to carry on insuring my 4.6 v8 so I want something either cheaper to insure or better MPG. May just have to go for a 2.5 diesel instead but I love my V8 :( I use it as a daily driver and the 4.6 is costing me a bomb so I'm looking for any...
