Well I've phoned the garage who does the work for me and I'm letting them get me some options, prices. My big concern is how much can I use it till I bugger it up completely !! My problem is I work away from home so I'm using it to get to work, did 150 miles this morning to get to work, didn't...

Hello chaps, sorry to raise this well worn subject but I could do with some pointers. First off I've got a 2008 TDV8 Vouge, 139k on the clock. I took it for servicing last week and given there was no history on the gearbox being serviced (Or not!) then I followed given wisdom and had the autobox...

I bought an identical product from a rangy specialist, that was the starting point to all this grief ! LOL Ebay item 221451405955 for anyone interested

See what you mean about pricey ! As much as things worth in scrap ! LOL

Despite the fact I bought a USB adaptor cable from Rangerover specialist that was supposed to be first class I took on board these comments a while ago. I bought a FTDI manufactured external board with FTDI chipset so there would be no need for a driver. As for Nanocom, forgive my ignorance but...

Ah ok. As I'm told everything was ok till this thing was parked up for 4 months I'll assume its still there. The owner wouldn't know what it was for if it poked him in the eye ! However are they prone to failure ?? maybe I've been looking under the wrong stone ??

I'm in Malvern Worcs Ta

Timer relay ??? That's not something I've looked at ! Where is it and what is it ?:confused:

Yes to all of that. Your right I'm using a USB adaptor so thats why I used a clean XP install, used the FTDI driver, even used an FTDI serial / USB circuit board converter which shows Green comms, so in theory I'm communicating but just getting garbage. Checked corrosion at OBD and at ECU so...

Hi chaps ! I was on here a few moons ago asking about a P38 I've got as a project car. My problem is I've not got past the second of a few problems on this, the EAS. Basically I just cant seem to communicate with the EAS. I've tried all sorts. I even dual booted a laptop with XP, loaded on the...

Yes I did , not being aware of the issues.... but I've uninstalled the drivers and made sure the driver is the one supplied. I'm hoping thats done the trick, having said that it still won't communicate properly so maybe not ! Don't know what else to do.

I'm not on Vista (dream on in your own words lol) I'm using W7. I've made sure the installed driver is the supplied one, not windows default. I'm not great at many things but OS & Windows is one of my better points.

Good point haven't updated profile yet. I'm in Malvern, yes hills everywhere and a broke RR lol

I'm running the driver supplied on disk with RR software. The seller seems pretty clued up on these issues. I know that drivers can be an issue. Its not Vista but frankly the OS makes no odds, its just that, its an OS, not the be all and end all.

I'm giving up and going to the pub !! I've tried everything that I can find out about and still no joy. Might have to admit defeat and get a local specialist out here :¬(

As best I can yes, I've diconnected and reinserted the plug a good few times to try and clean the contact points. I'll take the panel off that retains the socket next and try to get a better look. Although its pouring it down out side so that won't be for some time, bugger !

Spot on, thats exactly what seems to be happening, every possible fault code in it comes up ! LOL Still not sure where to go with this next...apart from the pub !

Did that, still no joy. I'm assuming that if there was no voltage to the ECU I'd get nothing Rx ?As opposed to the junk Rx I'm currently getting.

The OS makes no difference !!

Tried that, changed driver and still no joy :¬(
