ive got one in blue £3k or near offer if you haven’t got the 18k

Good news, both heads are on and have been torqued down to ARP spec (although that doesn't feel very tight!) Next step is the exhaust manifolds, I made a start on them but the new gasket slipped between the heat shield and the engine block, so I...

Took her for a little drive. Then kept her well out the way whilst manure was being dropped off for the tatties. After which I renewed the high tech solution for water ingress in rear quarter glass. :)

If the dash is not asking for the EKA code then I doubt it's that. As Brian said, needs a security re-learn, read the code in the EDC and write it to the BECM.

Nanocom is ideal. Needs to be correct one for your model. P38 is not obd2 compliant so lot of diagnostics will translate the codes to nonsense. You are risking turning your vehicle into a 2.5T paperweight messing about with those settings...

They'll be pushing against the valve springs. I put mine in with the valve bridge unbolted and then bolted the bridge down (using the sequence in RAVE). As you tighten the bolts down, the valves will open on those valves that are being acted...

Sounds like it needs the engine immobilizer code from the ecu writing to the becm. if they dont match it will turn over but not start.

My EKA was stuck to a bit of Dymo tape underneath the brake pedal rubber. Worth a look!

What you didn't try wading across 😁 😁

Oooh, have a look through the hand book if you've got one. Somebody may have written it down🤔 If not, God knows how to get it.. Another box will know better than me. 👍

Sit down, now look into my eyes🤨.... Now get out!! 😜

Wednesday night coming over the bridge👍

Dot 4 all day 👍

Yes dot4 for the brakes, that's what will be in there now. Have you checked your brake pads recently? They are probably worn and some might need replacing

On mine, I unbolted the compressor from the engine. Lowered it down as the pipes are flexible. I did struggle to get the clutch pack off and caused a little damege as the bearing has a circlip on the end of its bushing... Mine doesn't anymore🤣 I...

+1 ^^^^^^ If the scratches are close to the dowel, I wouldn't worry about them.

Any news?

You need to measure at the battery rather than using diagnostics.

Sounds like a waste of time testing it, I suspect the brushes are worn out and in any case the regulator it's incorrect for modern batteries. It's easy enough to swap the regulator, comes with new brushes, can be done with the alternator in...

Do you have a good link to where I can get one from please

new regulator ordered .Many thanks for all the help

When I stop lending my DVM to youngest son 😁 😁

Well had to drop he wife off earlier and she was only going to be 30mins so instead of waiting I decided to put one of those voltage readers that go into cig lighter socket and go for a run. Ignition on but engine not running 12.6v cranking...

Very low, should be between 14.4 & 14.8 volts just after starting folding back eventually to 13.8 volts. Needs a new regulator & brush assembly a the very least, assuming your plug in DVM actually works, I have one that always shows 12.8 volts...

How will you stop it rusting if it doesn't leak any oil?

As the guys said cheaper option is to but a s type or xf and transplant, strip to block, heads, rocker covers, you can hear it running first Yes not to bad at all to remove complete with gearbox I basically only remove transfer box and...

We did our regular 35km each way shopping run today and were amazed to see over a dozen swasticars. Very unusual normally never see more than one. Wasted my time washing the cars, they are covered in Sahara dust this morning :(

JFC. Might be worth a post on LZ courier service. If someone like @Mark Piercy was heading over the Channel he might get away with saying it is his spare in the boot if anyone asks.

Ha Cheers Keith I still have a Disco 2, well most of it.. I'm still in shock ;) Nope.. Her replacement. :) Never thought i'd part with the P38 but it cost a fortune to run mainly insurance which was even at 24 £170 per month plus £40 tax...
