Hello All! After nearly 10 years and 100k miles with my Westminster Edition P38 I’ve become a bit tired of the lack of performance from the M51 diesel lump and have been considering a change. I’ve had P38s with the 4.6 in the past and loved the smooth, torquey and effortless character it...

Selling our beloved 2010 Defender 90 Hard Top to make way for a new car. It’s on about 117k miles at the moment. The landy is in good condition throughout and drives well. Bodywork is straight with some age and mileage related marks (like most Defenders). We’ve had the car since 2016 and it...

Happy New Year ladies and gents! I was wondering if anyone could shed a little light on on why the MPG has started plummeting on my 2001 diesel. The car has always returned roughly 29-30mpg but in the last couple of months this has taken a sharp tumble to about 22.5-23mpg (despite the car...

Hey Folks, So I’ve had a recurring fault on my 2001 P38 Westminster with the 2.5 Diesel engine (autobox). The fault had been occurring about once every 2 months until recently when it has started happening almost daily. Essentially what happens is that any time up to 20mins from startup...

Hi folks, Just a quick one. Since buying my P38 I've been having to use the EKA code to access the vehicle (the original owner butchered the circuit board somehow whilst attempting to replace the fob battery). The fear of being locked out and embarrassment of looking like I'm trying to jimmy...

Hi Guys, Got a slight problem with my 2001 P38 Westminster's EAS. All is well whilst driving other than a slight lean to the left (potentially a bad ride height sensor or bad calibration?). It's when I park up and leave the vehicle that the problem truly presents itself. If parked on land...

Hello from a rather snowy Glasgow, My name is Alex. I'm no stranger to Land Rovers, having grown up around them you'd have thought that numerous experiences of being taken home in an AA truck rather than Dad's shiny new Range Rover would teach you that the green oval is not synonymous with...

Hi Guys, Fancied taking the Range Rover out for a run today but she's decided that she would rather not... Here's the symptoms: • Turn ignition on and none of the instruments light up (though the turn signal light works). • ABS pump doesn't come on like it normally would. • I can hear...

Hi Guys, The weather has finally got it's act together and Summer has arrived in Ayrshire! Great news for my Rangey's electrics that have thoroughly dried out and started behaving! However, the recent heat has made the Classic present a new problem to me. When I walk to the rear of the...

Hi Guys, Taken the plunge and forked out for a new set of air springs for the classic (all were perished and cracked). Only problem is fitting them. I've got all the tools but no access to a ramp (and don't fancy doing it with the car on axle stands). Does anyone know of any garages in...

Hi guys, Finally got the LSE road ready and through her MOT *cheers* The problem I've got at the moment though is a sort of crunching/banging noise at low speeds when turning. It's a pretty nasty sound, and also sends a lot of vibration through the brake pedal. I was just wondering if anyone...

Hi Guys, Now started work on my running restoration project, a 93 RRC LSE. When I bought it the air suspension was in hard fault mode and throwing all sorts of codes when connected to the diagnostic too. However, it would seem a Christmas miracle has happened as when I went to run the car...

Hi guys, long story short, the alarm in my 93 range rover classic LSE is going nuts and I have no idea how to disable it and sleep easily knowing that it won't be waking up my neighbours during the night. Does anyone know how to make sure the alarm won't go off? Don't really care about...

Hi guys, New to this forum and new to RRC ownership so please don't bite if this is a stupid question :P I've recently bought a 93 Classic Vogue LSE which has a full length vinyl sunroof. The winder handle for the roof appears to have been broken off at some point and I've been trying to find...

Hi guys, First post on the forum as the proud new owner of a 93 Range Rover Classic LSE. Bought the car as a project and intend to do an extensive restoration over the next couple of years whilst at Uni. It's a good looking car, in black with the less common full length vinyl sunroof...
