I wanted to swap the standard radio cassette as fitted to my 52 plate freelander ES for a cd head unit (the multi changer under the seat is not very practical) with a Parrot hands free which gives iPhone and USB and mp3 connections. For the cd I choose the standard Landrover radio cd, reasons...

Well to be honest I had parked on a side street and when I returned someone had nick the n/s front indicator lens why i dont know they even left the bulb Im not even sure how they could have got it off. But it was there when I left and was not there when I returned.

Is it normal to get tyre squeal on the inside wheel when turn right around a roundabout.

Below is the faults read from the EAS. The car was stuck in high setting with all the lights flashing, now it's stuck on the bump stops with all the lights flashing. So after reading this lot any idea how I go about sorting it with the EAS software? 0 : FL signal incorrect 2 : FR signal...

My newly acquired P38 4.6 V8 does not like to start in the mornings when its cold. It will start but can't maintain tick over without me using the throttle. As Soon as I take my foot off the accelerator to press the brake to put it in gear the engine dies. I have to keep the throttle open at...

I would just like to say thanks to Tony aka "p38 prius lol" for allowing me to buy one of his fleet of P38's. So I now have a working Range Rover again.

Breif recap:- P38 4.6 blowing steam out of exhaust and using water. Got the heads skimmed and tested. Put the heads back on twice using new bolts and gaskets as I was not sure I had torqued them down right the first time. Anyway it is still blowing steam out of the exhaust but not using a lot...

I have replaced the head gaskets for the second time using new gaskets and bolts each time. The first time I did it I was convinced I had not torqued the heads down correctly as it was blowing out more smoke than an Icelandic volcano. So this time I used some Tipex (other brands are available)...

After finally getting time to get the heads back on the P38 I tried to run it and the amount of light grey smoke coming out the back was unreal, so I thought the valley gasket had gone. This might sound daft but when I was fitting it I felt uneasy as it looked the part (All makes 4x4)but was a...

It rained all last weekend so today while there was a lull in it snowing I fitted the cylinder heads back onto the engine of my P38, but before I did I had to get a little bit of ice out of the one of the cylinders.

I'm in the process of changing the head gaskets on my newly acquired P38 4.6. I am stuck trying to move the left hand head off the block there is a small gap appeared on the valley side but it does not want to lift off. Now the daft question do I need to remove the rocker shaft before pulling...

Finally got to the end of repairing the chassis, chopped off the old front x member and fitted a new one.

While doing the front brakes and suspension I snuck up on the ignition key and the 2.25 diesel eventually burst into live. It will tick over but the engine speed will not pickup when the accelerator is pressed. Does any one know where the accelerator bit of the diesel pump is so I can check the...

So I could replace the rear springs on my 88 I had to cut the bolts to the top shackles, which left the chassis bush useless so I had to get them out. Now the best way yes your all shouting the same thing burn the rubber center out then cut the outer sleeve with a hack saw then bend that in and...

I have been trying to get the rear springs off, but on the bolts rear hangers will not undo. I ended up cutting the bottom bolt off on one side but cant now get the the remains of the blot out of the hangers. So I thought OK just undo the top bolt and take each side of the hanger off and sort it...

Could some one tell me if the rear prop shaft UJ easy to change, would a new one need pressed in ?

Can some one tell me what the black connection block is on the bulk head just below the ballast resistor, it has a wire looped between to terminals but no other wires go too it. I have attached a picture.

I have been trying to start my series 2.25 diesel, it has never ran since I first got it in october. I decided to change the Fuel filter but I can't work out how to bleed the system. I found the manual fuel pump, could someone tell me were you are meant to I bleed the air from. Also the heater...

Halford's are selling their semi synth 10w/40w oil at half price £9.99 for 5ltrs, is that stuff OK for a 2.25 diesel ?

Last night when I was knocking out the old rotten drivers footwell, a load of mud/Muck started to fall from the bottom of the dash, this was followed by bits of rusted metal :eek:, I'm guessing that this is not normal. :( So what can I expect to find if I take the dash out:confused: Jim
