All, Thanks for the replies. I should have clarified in my first post - RR is a 2001 MY 4.0 HSE. I have the info in my signature but for some reason it shows up when I'm logged in, but not when I'm logged out?? As to the cause of the problem, I have come to the conclusion that there is...

Folks, I thought I would post some information I managed to glean from an immobiliser fault over the week end. Like others I still have the original RF unit and suffered from spurious RF signals which caused a immobiliser fault (P1674) while parked at a friends house. The car would turn...

All, Many thanks for all the replies and advice - finally got it sorted. :) It was the crankshaft position sensor. Changed it and the car has been running sweetly since (hope that doesn'd jinx it!!) Ken

Wammers, Thanks for the reply. Something in the warm up cycle had occurred to me as it seems to occur when the engine temperature has reached normal operating conditions. Idle control may be a problem, but would this also cause non starting when the engine is warm? Only seems to start...

Folks, Thanks for the replies. I'll get a friend to travel with me to examine the live data, as watching that while driving may not be advisable:) What is pointing me toward immobilisation is the fact the it will only cut out once, approx 10 mins after starting from cold. Once it restarts it...

Thanks for the reply Stopover. Engine temp sensor changed today. Fuel pump and crank sensor? Possibly, but engine runs fine after re-start? Door actuator I'm buying this week and will replace during the week. I'm now planning my driving around the 10 mins, as I know it will cut out and if I'm...

Hello All, I have a 01MY P38 4.0 HSE which has started to cut out after running for approx 10 mins. Problem started some time ago with a stumble or split second cutout, but would then continue to drive. This problem occasionally caused other faults such as gearbox fault (most likely due to...

Just an update on this one. The gearbox oil cooler supplied by Island did not have screw tappings, and when I queried them, they advised glueing the sensor on with Araldite. Changed the cooler - for information, there is just room to move the oil cooler up, and move the air con rad slightly...

Another owner here in Wicklow town. 4.0 HSE on petrol. Irish car with plenty of work recently done by me - mainly preventative. Regards, Ken

Many thanks for the comments - I shall be speaking with our friends in Island on Tuesday regarding the cooler received, and possibly an oil cooler as well.

Anyone have any constructive thoughts on this one?

Have a P38 4.0 HSE '01 with a leak from the gearbox oil cooler. Have sourced a replcement rad and pipes from our good friends in Island and went to do the change this morning. Two quick questions - The new rad does not appear to have tappings for the temperature sensor - is it neceesary to...

Driving should be about adventure, that spirit of wonder, the joy of movement, the freedom of the road. Nothing else can give you those feelings like a P38; Adventure - that slight queasy feeling in the pit of your stomach wondering if you are going to get where you what to go! Spirit of...

Somehow I don't think LR give a toss what we think - this is clearly aimed at those who are pretentious enough to want a RR as a status symbol, but cannot afford one, and wouldn't be able to park it in the local supermarket anyway. Personally, I think the thing looks terrible - based on...

Just to advise on my experiences using this type of connector. Im using a notebook with Windows 7 and installed the drivers, but could not see the device at the end of the cable. Im using a Faultmate MSV2 Extreme , howver the problem is not with the device, but with the adaptor. I installed...

Ah to pay only £120 for road tax! We pay £1380 ( Eur 1566) for a years tax for anything over 3000cc here. There are new rules if you have a low emmission vehicle, however they dont really apply to Range Rovers.

Rasheed, I had a sneaking suspicion that the BeCM may be the fault, but however if I do drive with a door, bonnet or tailgate open, I get the warning on the dash. Ill try give the contact cleaning a go and see what happens. P38 prius - Oh I do count myself lucky but part of that luck was a...

No - I can open the door engine started, stand out and control the EAS up and down functions with the door open.

Just a quick one - the suspension is not supposed to move when doors are open but mine does. Can open the drivers door - courtesy lights come on but suspension will move. Same for other doors, tailgate or bonnet. Incidently the courtesy lighting will not come on when the passenger door is...

Took two attempts to get mine through the NCT. Initially failed on Lamba; reading 1.15 (hole in the exhaust I missed - was more concerned with a leaking manifold), Tracking was out; 19m/km and headlight out of alignment. As to the brakes, they do test them. They cannot use a single roller dyno...
