Hi
The battery on my P38 is flat, so the key fob doesn't unlock it.
Also, the lock tumbler on the door also doesn't do anything because the small metal rod that connects it to the central locking system has fallen off.
So basically, how the hell can I get back into the car?

Thanks
 
Use another battery and a set of jump leads.positive lead to the starter motor live terminal and the negative to any good earth.
 
I think the answer to your question ws in the preceding post. You do it from under the car. ;-)
 
I have seen the bonnet opened on one in the same situation using a metal rod poked up from underneat and lots of poking around, took a while but can be done it seems. Failing that jack up under front somewhere to give some clearance to get in, use sone axle stands of some sort though first obviously.
 
Can I remind peeps to not give any specific details of how to gain entry to a locked vehicle - whilst the OP could indeed be genuine and I am sure he/she is - but remember there are not so nice people in the world who may want to 'aquire' a locked Range Rover for other means!!

I agree Ant, by restoring the electrickery it would enable the op to use his remote,if he hasn't got one then he's stuffed.
