I thought it was a P38, Keith.
I clearly had a "Senior moment". At 69yrs of age, I'll wear that badge with honour

Took the dehumidifier out (we still haven't had a chance to trace and sort the seep in from the roof / windscreen area) and took him for his first spin since the MOT. Lovely to be wafting again, smooth and comfortable. Even popped to height after only a few hundred yards instead of over a mile after standing before, but did sound like the compressor was running too often so really must get the rear airbags done ASAP. Got some time off after Christmas - just hope the weather gives me some break then too as have to do it outside.

Today I started up my recent P38 purchase, a 99 Autobiogaphy that came with a factory winch and brush bar installation. I plan to swap this onto my offroader and then sell it although it is so nice I am tempted to kept it. Anyways, when I bought it there was a misfire on cylinder 7. Changing plugs and wires made no improvement so my brother and I replaced the cylinder 7 injector and also swapped in known good coils. Been sitting a few weeks while we took our time working on it but it started right up and my Hawkeye detects no misfire so I am pleased.

Not so sure if the pretender is running some of the same gear underneath. Can't confirm but something tells me......Well that just confirms the Ejoke is really a gaylander 3

Another 40ish miles of enjoyable wafting. Now parked up with a full tank to minimise condensation into the fuel. Unless I forgot one of the little top ups over the last 6 weeks or so, then on just over 625 gentle and steady miles he's averaged almost 23.5mpg which seems optimistic. I think I must have missed one. Still would be 18.3 (seems more likely) or just over 20, which I would be very happy with.

One of my P38 diesels has averaged 24mpg on brim to brim checks for the last 13 years, the other drinks a bit more but is averaging 22.5mpg. The first one gets close to 30mpg on long runs sticking to the 80 or 90kph speed limits.
seen a few videos about folks getting locked out of an L322 with superlock and flat battery/key sync problems, coming up with all sorts of ways of getting into the car.. why do they not use the key blade in the physical lock? are they forgetting about it? the physical key overrides superlock

Otto is a 4.0 petrol, so I'm sure I have forgotten a splash of fuel at some point. Cruising at 60ish on the long motorway run back from London to Wakefield and the crappy weather slow run down to London before he was giving around 24-25 mpg it appeared. That's why I don't believe the 23.5 with shorter runs since.One of my P38 diesels has averaged 24mpg on brim to brim checks for the last 13 years, the other drinks a bit more but is averaging 22.5mpg.

The easiest way is to put a jump pack onto the starter wires.
it depends on whether the locks have been faffed with.

Reset the dehumidifier, put the 4 season cover on him in view of the impending weather and lack of opportunity to do the suspension for a few weeks.

What does the P38 have then Keith. Someone once told me to ensure the MOT tester didn't test brakes on rolling road. Then again...that may have been on either of my AUDI A8 's.No
No Haldex on a P38 either
Ain't getting older great
