    P38A Front seat

    Thanks for the heads up Keith, from what I have read the pretensioner seat belts were fitted from 99 onwards, I assume that these would be the pyrotechnic ones?? TBH I didn't know the P38 had them

    P38A Front seat

    I only have the airbags up front, none in the seats, its a 97 HSE so a bit early for the seat bags

    P38A Front seat

    Just a quickie, I assume that I have to remove the whole seat to work on the seat base, I need to do some repairs to the leather. Can I just pull the plugs without disconnecting the battery? (Memory seats etc, etc.) Does anyone have the set element repair kits and the uprated thermostats, I need...

    P38A Fresh Air Flaps

    I guess the more accurate term for the flaps would be air recirculation servos, the 2 wire units

    P38A Fresh Air Flaps

    Thanks Pete, the ones I am looking for are under the pollen filters, the drivers side has jammed but I think it is the servo at fault.

    P38A Fresh Air Flaps

    A long shot but I was wondering if anyone has a picture of the fresh air flaps in situ showing the servos. I am going to be taking the dash out and was going to attempt to get them working, the drivers side is seized. I have been told changing the servos is a right royal PIA and I was was trying...

    P38A Leaky airspring connection.

    I believe that is called tempting fate! I said the same thing about mine a couple of weeks back and a day later it blew the heater matrix leaving the required puddle of coolant in the footwell and on the carpark :(

    P38A Insurance prices getting silly

    Fortunately I have the 3 year price fix with Saga, £426, I have another year after this one so I have no idea what it will go up to in 2026! I did actually do a comparison to see and TBH the Saga price is the best for what I have got on the policy. I did try Hastings Churchill and Direct Line...
