I'm not arguing that TC was an option on some low spec models, my concern is you think you have an LSD diff. I can find no reference to them being fitted in any Rave manual, Range rover.net or the bible that is James Taylors Range rover the second edition.
 
i was ,it has the only lsd diff lr used but not in an axle and then not for long i believe ive only ever seen 3

I have never seen or heard of a LSD diff fitted to the axle of a P38. However the centre diff could be regarded as limited slip.

Contrary to popular belief Land Rover can be helpful at times. I have no idea if it has an LSD only that Land Rover specified it had one due to it not having TC.

Sorted.

I really need to see this text to believe what your putting in my ears. Someone out there must have a owners manual from an early model.

I think we are getting crossed wires. In the handbook it says TC might not be fitted and when I asked at LR they say it hasn't got TC but it has got LSD. I am beginning to think it might be the centre diff to which they are referring.
 
My Brother had an early 80s Audi 80 which stalled when you stopped, but wouldn't stall if you coasted in neutral and then started itself up again if you touched the throttle - Bizarre, I traced all the wiring only to discover it was supposed to do it! Solenoids and actuators all over the place, the conclusion I came to was it was an experimental car that somehow avoided the crusher. These days of course stop/start systems are everywhere! Non-production cars do slip through the net occasionally!
 
The 1995 electrical manuals. ABS system has traction control as standard there is no alternative modulation unit as far as i can see. So basically ALL P38s have traction control. Early two wheel after 99 four wheel.

The non TC models have different wiring and a different ecu on the ABS according to LR.
 
In the ETM manual it does say:
"ABS Booster Unit (Z103)
The ABS Booster Unit (Z103) contains 2 isolation
solenoid valves and 4 pairs of solenoid control
valves which are grounded through the harness.
When the ETC is fitted, the booster unit also
contains an additional 2 solenoid valves. The pairs of
solenoid control valves each include a fluid pressure
inlet and outlet valves that control ABS braking to
one wheel."

Interesting!
