Hi Guys, Picking up my 60 plated RR AutoB 5.0 S/C tomorrow, so called up my insurer (Direct Line) to transfer over my current cars insurance. Was happy that the premium had dropped but really surprised when told that I had to get a tracker fitted for it to be covered for theft. Will get one...

Well after some time I have bitten the bullet and bought another Rangie. Had a P38a Vogue which was a pain in the backside to be honest with a host of issues. After 9 years of lease cars I have got myself a 5.0 Autobiography Black. One owner, 84K on the clock, full S/H and clean all over. Fell...

Morning All, 2000 Vogue 4.6 Petrol When accelerating, the rangie goes flat at around 2500 RPM then picks up again around 3000 - 3500. In effect its as if its losing power. It works normal around the other RPMS. Also, have noted in the mornings of late, that she can be a mare to get...

Hi All, 4.6 Vogue 2000 (petrol) So, Recently, ABS failure pops on the dash board after ignition turned on and then traction failure. (Not started) Pressed Brake a few times and it went.. Not long after, it popped back again.. This happened daily until the other day when the missus was...

Morning all, So, just back from holiday, left the Rangie with the missus to use for the dog and whilst I was away she said she got the console lit up with loads of messages. Been having some alternator issues anyway, so know this is the issue. I have recently had the cables replaced to the...

The other morning, I was awoken at 3am with the car horn on continuous blarrrr... I went down, unlocked, opened the door, closed and reset the alarm.. No further issues. Because I had been having regular horn parps whilst driving, I reseated all the cables connect the *siren (as its marked)...

I had a funny smell coming form inside the RR and on investigationfound I had about 4 inches of water in the spare wheel well. I h ave drilled 2 holes there now, 1 to drain out what was there and the other to keep it like it. Are there any drainage points at the rear I should be checking for...

Hi All, Since my Alternator issue a little while back I have noted that my internal clock is losing about an hour a day. I have recently checked that my Alternator is working but putting a fluke across the battery terms with engine off and measuring (13.x volts) and then with the engine...

Well, on the way to work yesterday and hit centre of Slough at 8am.. Monday morning at this time is manic but just as I start to cross one of the main crossroads the dash display went mental, Gearbox Failure, Enginer Failure, Engine disabled, dropped down off suspension onto blocks.. Engine...

Hi all, Not sure if this is a problem but it's drivingthe missus nuts. When driving (2k Vogue V8) and you lift your foot of the accelerator or drive without increasing the revs, it appears the engine whistles as if you were getting a feedback whistle on the old radios of yester-year that...

Morning all, Went to go to work this morning and started the Rangie. Up popped the EAS fault message with the lights flashing and the raised up high icon on the dash. Decided to work from home and moved the car on the road so the missus could get her car out.. anyway... Left it for 10...

Noticed that my front tyre is going bald on the inside, so popped down to local tyre place to get the tracking done and check tyre still legal. 'Sorry mate, we can't do that here! you need to take it to LR as you need a specialist tracking setup' So, question is, do you know of any of the...

Just a curious question.. How deep a puddle can a P38 go through on normal flat road setting? After the bad rain recently, and a few rivers by me flooding, I was curious. Ta Tim

Hi All, 2nd question for you.. hope it tobe the last for now ;) Any idea on what the latest OS and Maps would be for the Sat Nav (VODdayton).. The ones with the car are really bad and not useable so want to upgrade to the latest if possible. Any pointers to those in the know would be great...

Just bought a 2K RR, excellent nick for its age, drives superb, and just got back from a trip and the missus has noticed that the heating for the left hand side is blowing cold(ish) air, even on hi. Any pointers as to what to look at, as have no experience on the RR and have yet toget the...
