    Air suspention gone bang !

    AndyH the symptoms you describe sound like an airspring has gone bang. you can only really tell which one by jacking the vehicle up and removing the corresponding road wheel. This allows the suspension to drop away from the bump stops and show the spring to a greater extent. Try not to drive it...

    1998 dse

    If there is no noticable drop in speed when the cruise control is on and the injector light doesn't come on I would be surprised if its the pump. It sounds more like an electrical gremlin elsewhere, I'm not sure if the 98 has one so dont quote me but it could be as simple as a faulty MAF sensor...

    Poor cold starting 2.5DSE

    I'm sorry for Hi-jacking this thread. Mtechuck if I put a switch to ground from pin 8 would this do any damage? its not likely to damage anything else. I cant find the circuit on RAVE to check it myself.:confused:

    p38 dse engine noise

    errr where to start? A lot of problems start out like this so book it in now and get it fixed, it'll only save you money in the long run. It might only do it when cold now but it might start doing it when Hot and then get louder. Thats when the fun'll really start. You're probably right and its...

    steering problem

    I have had a similar problem on my Diesel P38, the only problem is I have tried 2 things at once and fixed it so I cant tell you which one worked for me. Mine felt like the whole steering cradle moved an inch further, laterally, than the rest of the car when going over bumps. Mine has newer...

    Diesel Power

    Dawes device worked for me. £15 off e-blag and it goes much better than my 4.6 ever did. The sceptics among us will ask for how long no doubt but engines arent that expensive, I'd rather be searching for a diesel engine than a 4.6.;)

    Hello from Newcastle

    yeah been offered some good money for the lightweight but I think it is an ex-RAF vehicle and the 3.5 was fitted then.Because of this I'm keeping it to play with. the truckcab could well be going the distance though.
