    P38A 4.0-4.6 MPG!!

    Yes i know, ya don't buy a 4.6 expecting 50mpg but my 125k vogue is doing 14.7 according to the trip cumspewter. She's a late 2001 4.6 with the bosch injection. she does have a wonky Lambda sensor does this affect fuel economy? I would be ok with 18-22 mpg but 14 seems silly am i right...

    Disco 3 (LR3) ATF fluids

    It is a pain in the pringle on a low sporty saloon but on a disco it should be quite easy lol! If the old fluid smells and looks past it then i would recommend a flush. if it looks decent but dirty then just a fluid drain and refill. Mileage is also a important to the 6HP! ZF recommend a...

    P38A Whats it worth?

    I bought my fully loaded 120k 2001 Vogue 4.6 for a little over £1600 so yeah :oops: they arn't worth much and with it being converted to coils that might put some buyers off. EAS is one of the defining features of the 38! :)

    Classic Sluggish cold start. Help please.

    On my vm you would turn the key to position II etc Wait for the glowplug light to go out but IMO the glow plug light goes out too early, i found if you wait longer you will hear an audible "click" then it would fire right up! I had basically the same car!! Shire blue 1989 Vm powered classic!!
