A good friend of my wifes has a SWB Wreg 1.8 Freelander, She is looking to replace the car as its cost her a fortune over 12months and she wants a newer FL. Now she says fortune but I have spent a lot more on my V8 Jeep in the last few months but its all reliative I guess. I enquired into...

Not been on here for a while since the P38 went, Dad has got a 2007 Freelander TD4 SE. Last night whilst out in it the speedo / RPM / Fuel gauges all went off, upon turning the car off the radio and sat nav remained lit up. When we went to turn the car on there was nothing, The surround...

Got me a spare second key the other week, got it cut to fit etc, just needs programming now. I tried it and got the engine disabled as I knew I would having not had it programmed. Dads got the other key at the moment, and he is going to move the rangie down his over the weekend whilst I am...

I have done a search and understand that a used fob cannot be reprogrammed but thats not what I am after. If I had a key cut, just a normal key with no fob / electronics in it. If the car was left open or unlocked using the fob would the new key that had been cut start the car??? Only ask...

My rear air bags are mullered, meaning the compressor has to keep kicking it to maintain ride high which isnt ideal. I have been offered a pair of nearly new rear bags, but they were off a disco TD5. he put them one then a month later the compressor went so installed coils. Logic would...

Quick question, early Td5 about a 1999 with less that 100k on it or a later one 2003 with about 120k +, about a 7k - 8k to spend. Not mine but a neighbours is looking. Does one favour the other, any faults on one over the other not the common issues generic to both??? Cheers

Question, Been doing a bit of searching on ebay and various places, there are loads of 200 / 300tdi S1 discoveries that are modified. I found only a couple of TD5 that were slightly done up, I know the TD5 costs more that a S1 Disco but if that was the only reason there wouldnt be many...

Right, At current I have the P38 V8 which is having some work carried out on it and I also have a Jeep WJ Grand Cherokee 4.7V8. I really like them both but havent bonded with either as I want to get muddy etc and I used to have a 90 that started life as a standard van and I got the bug...

As some of u may know I have a range rover P38 with issues, I am looking to move on from the rangie and also my jeep grand cherokee I have. Thinking about going back to my roots in the fact that I my first car was a defender and I have always missed it. My question is what mpg can I...

Just to say that there have been a few defenders stolen in the bromsgrove area, one has had parts removed from it at the Lickey Hills visitors centre, another was nearly stolen not far away. These were the lucky ones as some have gone in the area. Shame its not P38 range rovers going...

Things are moving forward with the trader and my P38, trader is making me offers, still to low but its a start. My friend has a 1998 4.6 RR. The air suspension takes an age to build up enough pressure to raise the car. The compressor works fine, all air bags ok and piping ok. What is the...

When pulling out my Grove the other day I saw a 4x4 drive past. It looked like a Range Rover Sport but smaller and with a more slopy rear (not to the extent of a BMW X6). It was wrapped in a Purple camoflage, but definatly had RR lights and wheels on it. Is there something new planned for...

As you know I have recently brought a P38 Range Rover. Brought from a Trader only 2weeks ago. It felt like the tracking was out this week, although it came with a 4wheel alignment certificate. Took it to have wheel balancing checked which were all out and also the 4 wheel alignment was...

Hi, Still new to all this RR P38 stuff!!! I appear to have a slight misfire at about 1250-1500rpm, if I put my foot down it smooths out but is present at the above engine speed. The car has had new plugs but the leads look fairly old, prob origionals as the car has covered just under...

Hi, I have made a few posts so far but thought I would introduce myself. I'm James and have just brought a low mileage P38 HSE and Love it. Plans are to have an LPG conversion done, so if anyone can recommend how much I should be spending and anyone have experiance of an LPG installer...

Right, A week or so ago I put petrol into the wifes diesel Mondeo, (**** I know, she did tell me) I got the car home and drained it all off, the Mondeo's computer said there was 30miles worth of diesel left in the tank when I put the petrol in and I put £30 worth of petrol on it. I...
