Thanks again for all your collective advice on which Range Rover to have next. The decision was made to go for a P38 again and stay with Diesel. I found a great example with full history and so far... No faults!
So my question is: Thanks to all of the learning that I have done on LANDYZONE, I am now aware of some of the problems that will crop up. I will have a problem with WiFi knackering my ability to start the car (it happened on the last one). So as a solution I could buy a sync mate. Then there will be the issues with the EAS. So purchase an EAS Kicker? Or should I make the leap and go for the NANOCOM? The problem is that I am still learning the P38, Could I do more damage than good with the NANOCOM? So stick with the plug in helpers? Or is there something else that will help with the routine problems that I can tackle myself? Although I live in a very rural location, at work we have a huge amount of WiFi traffic so this will be a problem.
Thanks again for expert help.
Happy New Year all,
Charles.
P38 2000, 2.5 DSE Epsom Green.

Hi Charles.

I have a D2 and really like my nanocom.

But just so you are aware. Bearmach ( I have no affiliation ) are bringing out a new Hawkeye early next year that is going to be unlocked for all LR products, so they say.

Cheers

Go for the nanocom and do my second remote rf receiver mod, or pay 200+ for the uprated receiver from LR

Hi and many thanks. Could you please explain your mod?
Many thanks
Charles.

I've seen a couple of mentions of this over the last few weeks. Anyone got any info/links etc.?
Sorry to hijack a thread BTW.

Hi,

As far as I can tell, they released it unofficially at the Stoneleigh show, as they took advanced orders for it (£250) I could not go to the show, but when I heard about it on FB, I was a bit disbelieving. So, I called bearmach direct and spoke to a Lady there. She told me the following info , planned price £299, unlocked for ALL LR vehicles.

I have not seen or found even after searching a link that gives up to date info.

As the price is not that different to wait until a few others have them , I have decided to wait and see what others think first.

Cheers

We have hawkeye, and all the cables and dongles that go with it. This is, IME, a pain. On occasion the dongles seem to grow legs and wander off (!).

If I were buying again, I'd get one machine that did everything.... which IIRC is BBS' Nanocom.

I have nanocom and it's pulled me out of the fertiliser more than once.
For example, 2 days ago, dropped passenger window to clear the water off it and it wouldn't go back up. Checked the switch output on nanocom and nothing. As I didn't have time to pull the switch pack out, I simply used nanocom to drive the window back up and added the switch pack to the "jobs to do list"
I wouldn't be without it and it's so small it fits in the centre cubby so stays with the car at all times.
