Cheers mate your description of the noise helps, and points to big ends. i have not had the car long, and by the state of it it has been stood up for a while, for example the rear brake pads fell apart when i striped the callipers down to check condition. there is surface rust on everything...

I am convinced the bottom end rattle under load only, is the the big ends. i have not checked my oil pressure (don't know how) but oil light never comes on while driving, and on tickover all is well. for the price of new shells (about £20) i thought i would try it first. if it is little ends or...

Chaps. Bonnet warning fixed. (cut the wires) Gearbox overheating (new sensor) fixed Too much trans fluid fixed Whirring not fixed, will try new tyres, might be exagerating the nosie i can hear. Engine knock/tap??? this is still the same, only knocks/tap when engine underload, its almost a...

i am close to solving the bonnet switch thanks chaps i have a few ideas now where to start. The trans fluid your right when off it is all the way up the stick. but when idling it is still way over the max.

Chaps it has been a while since my last visit as i tried another brand of car, i should have known better as i could not wait to get back behind the wheel of a trusty p38. the car i have bought is a 2000 4.0l se auto on gas . this will be my new project, and when i work out how to put pictures...

cheers mate, the drivers door works fine. what and where is the bcem? is that the thing to unplug and leave unlpuged to reset the entire system?

Chaps i have a 1995 v8 4L petrol p38 range rover. its telling me that key code is locked out and the engine is immobilised. looking through the manual, i have gone through the renetry process many many times now and it still does not work. i have done it in the right order with the right number...

I have just bought a 4 litre p38 se on the m (1995) this is now my 3rd p38 and love them. My range rover idles too low. i have changed plugs, and leads. i now need to pick the idle up as this did make it run better but idle still low. i do not want to raise the idle by adjusting the throttle...

hi chaps, my brake lights have just stopped working, all my other lights work, but i cant find the fuse for the brake lights. its a 97 p38 diesel

Not sure when the next one is, and all generations of range rover would be welcome.

On Monday some of us met at the horse and groom in galleywood chelmsford, it was good to see some nice p38's there, and swap some stories, it would be good to organise another one, and see some more faces, the pub was a great venue, with loads of space, child and dog freindly, the beer was nice...

I have 22's mate, and the smallest profile you can imagine for a range rover. the ride is absolutly fine, i had a p38 with normal wheels and the difference is nothing really, it just corners a bit better
