    P38A Odd EAS behaviour - sinking front

    Anyone have a guess at the cause of this? Bought another p38 recently (4.0 auto) with a known EAS fault. Basically it wasn't raising at the front. It was thought an air spring might be the culprit. There were a couple of faults on the Nanocom, but I think due to the compressor running a long...

    P38A EKA woes....

    For my sins I've bought another p38a. Its a 1998 GEMs 4.0 litre auto. It only has 1 key. The key fob worked and locked/unlocked the vehicle fine. But the main 12v battery was low. So I took the battery home to charge it (something I've done countless times on my 1999 4.6 p38). However, on...

    P38A ABS reluctor rings????

    In the next effort in trying to solve my ABS issue (no errors or warning lights, but pulsing pedal). I'm looking at changing the ABS reluctor rings, as potentially a crack in one of them could cause this problem. It seems the rings are available...

    Freelander 1 Floppy gearstick....

    I know the Freelander can suffer from a floppy gearstick on the manuals. Anyone have a guide on what to do to fix it? I can see these items at Muddymods: https://www.muddymods.com/collections/freelander-1/products/bush-gear-linkage-rear And...

    Freelander 1 Is the Freelander 1 any good off road?

    A question many may have asked and probably a lot have dismissed out of hand as it simply isn't a Defender.... In this video we take a closer look at the capabilities and limitations of the Freelander as an off road vehicle.

    Freelander vs Range Rover off road flex test....

    Just for fun..... :) There was a small test trench in the field, so thought, might as well drive through it. Nothing too extreme or serious, but a good demonstration of the vehicles suspension and traction. Range Rover p38a 4.6 on coils with 4"+ lift and +2" shocks and slightly larger...

    Freelander 1 Extended brake lines for lift kits??

    Anyone know if you need extended brake lines for any of the lift kits? I have emailed Muddymods, but no reply as of yet. And sadly their website is rather devoid of information. I know they sell kits with or without brake lines. But I'm not seeing any info on if they are required at all...

    Freelander 1 Anyone fitted different seats?

    I'm guessing I can't be the only one, but I find the Freelander 1 seats most uncomfortable. They just seem hard and unforgiving and certainly aren't to my liking. Has anyone swapped in any other front seats as an alternative to the factory items? The seats are completely manual with lumbar...

    P38A ECU locations

    Can anyone tell me exactly where I can find these ECU's and any other bits of wiring/connectivity I should be checking? 1999 4.6 Thor Range Rover p38 -Wabco D ABS ECU (can't connect with Nanocom, although another diagnostic tool called Pscan does) -Hella CC (also never been able to get it to...

    P38A 4.6 fault codes

    Vehicle is a 4.6 "Thor". I've never seen these fault codes when using my Nanocom (not saying they won't show, just never seen them). Used a different diagnostic tool recently and it is displaying these fault codes: Anyone know what they mean? The vehicle runs very well overall. A few years...

    P38A ABS issue - fault codes

    So I've been having a long term ABS issue. When you drive and use the brake pedal it pulses and activates the ABS. It does this most applications of the brakes, at all speeds and conditions. The vehicle has had quite a few bits done to solve this. My Nanocom won't talk to the ABS unit. Although...

    P38A Difficulty selecting low range

    Any ideas what I should be looking at? It used to shift to low with little effort on the lever (just like it still does to select high). This symptom started in the heat wave we had this summer while I was setting up an off road event. At the time I assume it might have been down to the heat...

    P38A Squeaky brake pedal

    Anyone else had this on a p38? I can't quite see what the cause is and the trim is in the way. I've sprayed WD40 up around the pedal area, but to no effect. On a side note. I'm still having some pulsing ABS like issues with the brakes (feels a bit like the ABS kicking in and the pedal sort of...

    P38A What causes a keyfob to stop working?

    Went away for a few days, thankfully took both keys. Night 2 parked up at the hotel and locked the RR. In the morning the keyfob would no longer unlock or lock the vehicle. Fob lights up and the battery is fairly new (as in I'm 110% sure it isn't the fob battery). Any ideas on what could cause...

    P38A Cruise control not working

    Any ideas? Is there something common. Hasn't worked since I started having ABS issues, but no error codes showing. Cruise button works and lights up, but nothing happens when you press the Set button on the steering wheel.

    P38A How do I make it black again?

    The rubbery trim that runs along the lower edge of the windows. If I scrub them with T-cut the rear ones mildly improved. But it was a lot effort. Is there a better way to rejuvenate them?

    Freelander 1 Uprated suspension????

    Does such a thing exist for the FL1? I'm not talking about lifting blocks. I'm talking about better dampers and springs. Most cars can benefit on road with improved items. Loads of choice for Defenders and Disco's. But those same places only seem to sell OEM or pattern part shocks for an FL1...

    Freelander 1 Td4 remaps

    Probably covered many times before. Any first hand experience on remapping an FL1 with the BMW Td4 engine? Assume it should react the same as any other TD, with good gains to be had. Anyone do bigger intercoolers for them?
