Is it on the bump stops? If so, you can drive home but it will be bloody uncomfortable. I did about 50 miles on the bump stops with a caravan on the back when I first got mine:eek:
Mine rarely gives trouble, but I never leave home without laptop, Faultmate and EAS diagnostics.
 
Indeed Datatek, she was sitting in high mode, started her, still flashing wading height light, blipped the down aspect of button, cleared light on dash,, 175 mile trip in awful conditions, home safe and sound......cheers

I have to say, whilst other vehicles erred on the very cautious side, with the amount of rain and spray the RR performed as if in dry conditions, never mind that I was shipping a new LED "side of a house" sized TV and the sons bloody expensive drum kit....brill!!

Glad to hear it worked out.
they are one of those vehicles that will put a grin on your face.
Either whilst driving it, or from climbing out from under it, a face full of oil, filthy fingernails, but problem solved, for now......:D:D

A dodgy height sensor then, possibly water in the connector or corrosion, if not it wil be the sensor itself.:) Have a look at the readings with the diagnostics.
 
I have yet to locate a neighbour/colleague with a PC based Laptop(we're a Mac family as are nearly all I know!), am away for a few days, so will leave it down to my mechanic to do a full service on and use his well worn fine tooth comb......so over next few weeks improve her bit by bit

You can buy a cheap laptop on Ebay for peanuts.
Unless your "mechanic" knows P38's in general and the EAS in particular, you could be in for a lot of grief and a big bill:eek:
 
Hes worked on them before, a very able bloke, great diagnostician, but am sure if there a few unknowns popping up the forum will help out!

Is there another name for the RS232 port, or how can I tell if an LT has one, or if it has USB ports it won't have one anyways?

No other name, very few newer laptops have an RS232 port, it can be recognised by a the 9 pin connector. Some do have USB and RS232, usually high spec ones, but most just have USB. If buying second hand, avoid Vista and go for XP operating system as that is easiest one to get a USB to serial adaptor working.
 
Opps - didn't read 'passanger footwell' then yes it is either Aircon drains or the Pollen Filter Covers....:eek:

Ok guys, we've changed the pollen filters, looked a bit blackened and old, they weren't quite sat properly in containers, so popped back in properly, can anyone post up a pic of aircon pipe at front please?

Then found water in sparewheel well.....likeliest leak point guys bar tailgate seal and rear sunroof drain pipe?

Best place to buy good value mudflaps either that or OEMs?


Have it part serviced, still gearbox, differentials to do, sill and wheel arch covers off for Dinitrolling, plenty of holes to put it into chassis too, hoping to have all done by next wednesday

They are made of the same material as the Millennium Falcon.
Land Rover were so far ahead when they designed the mudflaps they bought in George Lucas as a consultant
