Latest news on my extended holiday, the ca is now ready...almost! The garage replaced the belt nd all the pullies except one which is priced at about €400! All others are done, pus a new belt, EGR valve, and a full regen so that's now al clear...

Have a look that it actually has Bluetooth and it’s not expecting you to plug in an old Nokia with infrared or something. Technology has changed quick

Mine doesn't have a dipstick. Stupid idea! Dipsticks don't break or wear out, like sensors do so it's a good job the oil level isn't important

It only pairs the phone, you can't play music. There's an old style apple connector in the centre console for that

As for the phone when you first switch ignition on it goes into pairing mod search on phone for range rover and code is 2121 it's in the hand book, side step is common problems either it's seized up or motor burnt out, mirrors don't auto fold you...

I'm such a knobhead! Sat here thinking about this and had that thought of "it's like the boot is open or something". Hang on, did I actually check that function? walked out to it and sure enough, the upper hatch was released. You know how it...

Well my new track rod arrived this morning. Not bad less than 48hrs from ordering. It had been on a right tour round . I had to smile at the couriers tracking. From Doncaster to Howden to Newcastle to Darlington to Tamworth and finally to...

Sure he said the one on mine had both ends changeable . May be some one in the past had fitted a doctored track rod or the tester hadn't looked correctly. Any way proper one on order

Took the old old gal in for MOT this dinner time with a recommended garage near by in Sheffield. Passed with just a couple of advisories to do and a couple to keep an eye on. Track rod end rubbers starting to perish and will let in dirt New...

I did try switching the AC off but it didn't do it. Of course, that might mean something but given it is intermittent it is rather hard to say for sure. Been busy all weekend and got stuff to do today as well so it will have to wait another week.

They get under your skin and you can't part with them. The times in the past I was getting rid BUT now what would I buy. On a limited budget its cheaper to run my P38 than buy another car for the money I would get for her.

DMF Failed.

When they work LOL

Became hard to hide... Even worse, it caught up with my bank account... Luckily, not a lot is missing: roof tent, tires, distributor, roof bars. And there, only the tires are really required. And the fuel lines and other hoses. I just hope...

They're great work horses.

Mines been earning it's keep again, road trip up to Knaresborough with friend of mine to take engine, box, rad and few other bits out of Dodge Durango got there at 8.10 this morning managed to get it out and all loaded up by 5pm got home at 7.45...

I Would think wrapping past the initial joint, where temps are cooler, will accelerate rot and corrosion. The exhaust isn't hot enough at the tail pipe to do any damage or the factory would do something about it

:banana: :banana::banana:

Reporting in late. Yesterday afternoon I took the Rangie for its MOT. Totally clean on emissions. Mr. Tapley was happy with the brakes and all the lights and horns work. So a clean pass with no advisories. :D

Right that didn't work I shall try again lol.

3mm to 5mm or 8mm to 5mm not a big difference from what you have now. That's why I swap front to back on services to keep the wear even.

Re your starting problems, is the engine and starter physically connected electrically to the chassis and battery negative?

Whatever I do today, I have professional help!

Apparently, almost all the stuff I ordered beforw and during our summer vacation, ehich is ending tomorrow unfortunately, has been delivered. My catsitting dad was so kind to also take delivery for that. He just told me that it looks like...

As promised before and after piccies

Jet washed all the axle oil & mud off the underside so I can see if there are any other oil leaks.

My dearest wife paid for the RR to have new roof lining fitted today. Picks to follow tomorrow. Looks 100% better now. :banana: :banana:

Has anyone ever had the one way valve in their ABS pump fail? Since i got my P38, when the ABS pump is not running it would make a very soft rythmic ticking. So making an edjucated guess i thought it was the one way valve that was leaking and...

Thanks.👍 Problem is it's through the clear coat and the paint layers. You'd think it had sat for years rather than a veh that is rinsed, washed, polished, resin'd regularly 😔She's going in for a little bit of body work maintenance around...

Try wet sanding- 3000 grit, then good polish something like Scholl s3 gold, that will remove the sanding marks and bring the panel up. When I got my 4.2 the previous owners house was surrounded by trees and he obviously didn’t do the roof much...
