After nearly six years of relative normality as far as a P38 went I have now sold it. The question now is six year old L322 3.6 tdv8 Vogue or 3.0 tdv6 Sport HSE. Both around 60,000 miles and same price. Thoughts please on which is the more worthy venture..... Ok I know some will say neither but...

First of all I have done the search but found nothing specific. I know the hold down the button trick to switch the interior lights on and off and have set it both ways i.e. on and off but whichever setting it is on the interior lights don't come on when I open the door, unlock or press the...

I recently had occasion to change a reverse light bulb in my P38 and on doing so I noted (on both sides as I was inquisitive) that there was a third bulb hole between the reverse and fog light bulbs. It is marked for a 5w bulb so would imply it is for another tail/side light. I put a couple in...

Having done all the usual checks for bearing lift and roughness when rotating (and not found anything) I hope I have determined the fact my front n/s wheel bearing is noisy. Main symptom being a 'wow wow wow' noise on right hand bends. I had it suspended on a wheel free ramp with all four wheels...

Thought I'd put this on yesterday but obviously hit the wrong button. Have done a search but not found this problem listed. A friend of mine has a 1995 2.5D which he refuses to part with (having spent so much probably) which had the usual EAS problem in January. Too many probs with it so we...

The problem is I feel a slight bit of brake drag, not really when driving but when I pull up at traffic lights...

After discovering a dribble of clean water on the front left floor mat (2000 P38 V8) I quickly suspeccted the pollen filter housing. Out with them both and checked. Driver's side dry so no prob - gave it a blast with the airline anyway. The passenger's side one was wet and there was water in the...

I have searched a few threads here but not found the answer. The sticker on the throttle body doesn't say much either other than 'check manual' so can anyone tell me what the free play settings should be on the two cables are? The one closer to the front of the car is tighter than the one...

Following an MOT request to renew my front to rear brake pipes on my P38 I decided to let the garage do it as it is a tricky task having read a lengthy previous thread on it. I now have the car back complete with a new MOT however I am not convinced it has been done properly. The car seems to...
