Hi Guys, As it says I have big problems, from cold it turns over for a bit before firing up, when it does it's ok for maybe 10 secs. Then it starts to misfire very very bad, clouds of smoke and really stinks of fuel. Can't even reverse out of the drive before it stalls. Fires up again but...

Hi Guys, Got a problem with a 97 disco V8. Starts fine but within a mile or so starts to hunt and sometimes cuts out. Always starts again and if you put your foot down pulls fine under load, and will rev smooth as anything at high revs when not under load. I've checked for air leaks etc as...

Hi Guys, Managed to lose the key and fob for my 97 Disco V8 Auto. Long story with lots of no shows, but eventually a locksmith turned up took seconds to open Disco but sadly no keys inside. He's cut a key by hand which works in the door locks but not the ignition. Weather has been horrible...

Hi Folks, Until Friday never had a problem apart from a persistently flat battery which I thought was a drain. Turned out to be the alternator which has also taken out the battery. So took it to the garage who fitted a new alternator and then tried to jump start the vehicle. Instead of firing...

Hi Folks, Rover brewed up big style today had to be recovered by RAC. I'm guessing that its a couple of days labour to fix, but does anyone know how much the gaskets, head bolts etc cost. Don't want to skimp on the job, just trying to get an idea of the total cost and what should be done...

Hi Folks, Original stereo has been dead since I bought Rover and there doesn't appear to be any power to the amp & multi cd changer in the boot. Before I try and figure out what if anything works etc and maybe get the stereo repaired, is it worth the effort? or would I be better off just...

Hi Folks, Does anyone have a link to the above please, particularly interested in the dash warning lights, what all the buttons do and what options should be fitted as standard. Cheers Andy

Hi Folks, MOT is due on Saturday and the ABS light is stuck on, normally this goes out within a few secs of driving off but has in the past stayed on for a while on several occasions. Just had Rover in the garage for a pre-mot check and had some work carried out, track rod ends, drag links and...

Would disconnecting the front propshaft improve fuel economy, and could it cause damage to other components. Got a problem when turning on full lock which may be due to the transfer box?, difficult to describe but it feels like something is out of line, juddering, this continues for maybe 30yds...

Hi Folks, There have been a few posts lately which could be down to problems with lpg systems. I completed a Romano installer's course at Autogas a few years ago but haven't much experience with other system software. Recently I purchased the leads and software for loads of other systems and...

Found this link if it's of any interest:- Range Rover Classic Workshop Manual

Hi Guys, There are some major savings to be had on the likes of brake fluid, oil etc if you open an account. All you need is a business card which you can print yourself. Discount is variable, but brake fluid for example is less than £5/ltr, and a set of their "professional quality" spanners...

Hi Folks, Just bought a Jan 1994 RR 3.9 with a Landi lpg conversion. Seen lots of post mentioning P38, L..., which engine do I have please. If there is a topic covering this (history in general) , I'd be grateful for a link. Cheers Andy

Hi Folks, Can someone tell me what I need to buy for my 1994 3.9 Petrol please. Had a good look on eBay and all I can see are readers for 1996 onwards. Cheers Andy

Hi Folks, Apologies for my first post asking for help, but I will reciprocate in due course. Just bought a 1994 3.9 Auto knowing it had a problem which the previous owner thought might be an ecu issue, or more likely head gasket. Got her running today eventually, turns over coughs, catches...
