    EAS over heat and cure

    This is my take on venting it. A series of small holes directly above the compressor as well as some slightly larger vent holes as others have done. I have some black steel mesh from a Cooler Master pc case to fit under the holes to trap debris, but not got around to it yet - and I might not...

    EAS, please, need help.

    I had a moving car that was constantly trying to self-level whilst driving. It turned out that 2 of the air lines to the block were the wrong way around. It must have confused the hell out of it trying to figure out what it should be doing. It still dances around at the lights or anytime I'm...

    replacement engine has overheated

    I'm obviously not disputing that as I don't know any better and you know FAR more than me about all things mechanical. But... if it's 95'c max, how come when my RAD split, steam poured out of the bonnet, yet very little coolant was lost, as I caught it in seconds (very little coolant loss would...

    how to service rear boot button ?

    +1 I figured you could put any momentary push button in there. Something like a foot switch (non-latching) epoxied in. But I found a real one still in its box brand new for £15 so I didn't bother... Nik

    MOT failure - wheel bearing

    Well the rumble has gone! So I've been driving around on a dodgy wheel bearing for a year it seems - assuming the work on the trackrod and draglink ends couldn't have cured a rumble. Anyway, all sorted. A much better drive. But... £627 lighter - ouch! Especially when it was £400 last week. I...

    Why so few bits on the shelves?

    Just curious, but when you read through the mags or browse your local Landy shop, why is there next to nothing for Range Rovers (especially the P38) when circumstantial evidence suggests they are almost as popular as Defenders and more popular than Disco's or Freelanders? What circumstantial...

    MOT failure - wheel bearing

    Bizarrely, 3 Front left is a fail Both rears are advisorys. Nothing at all wrong with front right. So all I can assume is it's already been done at some point!! :)

    MOT failure - wheel bearing

    I do have a rumble (that sounds like very knobbly tyres) BUT its an oscillating one (is that the right term?). It only sounds at one point of the transmission rotation. So the wavelength gets shorter the faster I go until at 70 it is virtually constant. But at crawling speeds its only once per...

    MOT failure - wheel bearing

    I will check (for play), but I've been having a rumble for months that has now turned in to a whine. I posted this ages ago, have a listen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1HYyy7j760 I thought it was the tyres but I've changed those... Nik
