Not sure about US suppliers, but I have used both X8R eBay & 4x4airseals. X8R also has their own website. Definitely check duty & shipping for each. Bottom line cheap compressor repair kits will mean you have to do it again soon !!

I had a 1978 XJ6 for a while. Never broke down in the 3 years I had it. Still got the camchain adjuster tool the tool shop engineers at Desoutter made for me from scratch.

Now it appeared !!

Yes KpA. LP generally stays at same value (unless the pump is knackered). HP should be around 28000 at tickover, but rises to over 100000 at high engine load & revs. Plenty of KPA to PSI or BAR converters online, so just let us know what your...

My Merc C180 Coupe gauge is quite good & seems to be within a few degrees of the OBD value. Totally agree on the uselessness of most car gauges. Many don't have one at all anymore. Just before I fixed the thermostat !! Now sits a smidge...

I had the "1190 fuel rail plausibility" on my son's 2004 TD4 recently. Turned out to be the new fuel rail pressure sensor we fitted had failed. Car would go into limp mode every time we accelerated hard or uphill. Put the original back on...

Location ??

Brian, You’re the first so it’s yours. Ping when back from Rome. Pete.

Shame most US owners have petrol P38's. They would love all this sixteenths stuff !!

Clarion CD Changer with CD cartridge going free + postage. No idea if it's working as I removed it from my P38 back in 2013.

My two P38's definitely sound different, but MOT testers & me have never checked noise levels. The Blue P38 has single back box & does sound noisier, but no one has ever complained. Ran it once after the engine rebuild with CAT's off, which...

But at what engine revs ?? Surely all vehicles are noisier above tickover ?

Normally you just "Uninstall Device". The driver you need is probably the VCP which means Virtual Com Port.

Position wise, on a P38 it's where the cam sensor usually goes, but they normally have 3 wires. Maybe that one is grounded through it's case ?

You definitely need to check the actual cable hardware in Device Manager. Although you selected FTDI, that does not confirm the cable is that type.

Just checked back to see the updates. Dows that mean I'm temporarily not ignoring ?? Now back to ignoring this again . . . . . . . . . .

Yes they will disappear when you delete the windows driver. . . .BUT windows usually reinstalles its own driver after reboot !! Make sure you only remove the Serial driver, not the entire Ports tree. Do not reboot yet. Run the FTDI...

. Unlikely.

Well, to go to the original topic...I previously had a p38 with poly's installed by the PO. Driving at 60mph it felt like something was trying to rip the front axle from underneath the car ie death wobble, pretty unnerving on a motorway...once I...

With the serial cable plugged in, open Device Manager, and Delete the windows serial driver. Then run the FTDI Installer. Do not use device manager to install it. Then back in Device Manager / USB Serial / Properties check the cable...

Adjustable for vehicle length I presume ??

My guy also doesn't do repairs, just MOT's. The bay has those jiggle plates for the front wheels, whcih are brilliant for finding loose joints. Easy to see from the pit (no 4-post lift required). Also he uses a Tapley meter to do the P38...

Ask them if they would do a "MOT Pre-Check". For the std MOT fee, my local guy goes through the MOT process without logging onto the computer system. Then if he's happy it's effectively a pass, I have a cuppa for 45mins while he does the...

Nanocom does report current faults, but no idea if it's really that, or a calculated error ?

Hopefully you caught it before the gel leaked down on the console below. Bit of info on how they work:

BKR6EQUP (3199) Or upgraded versions are BKR6EIX (6418)

If you PM me the reg, I can ask my son. He works at NGK & can look it up !!

Tell the seller to warm it up fully. As with any potential purchase, take diagnostics with you & check it.

yes. Got mine from eBay. https://ebay.us/m/ZchevP Seller does lots of different AMP connectors.
