Yep-mine was running between 95-99 today on a 35 mile journey-so seems about right. Will try and change the sensor this week.

they are not far off each other-the thermistors in the sensors are nearly 20 years old-and will have I suppose a couple of percent tolerance.

Took it out today-between 95-100. Same as the wifes Focus and a few Omegas i owned.

Will have a look later-only let it tick over for 5 or 10 mins.

Quick update-received the OBD adapter today-works a treat! Can now see engine temp-so can change sensor at leisure. I did read that the OBD temp reading is taken from the other thermistor in the sensor-other thermistor is for engine ecu I think. Don't know if that is correct-but all good for...

Thanks downloaded app and ordered adapter. Will give it a go and report back. I used to be good with BBC computers-how time flies!!

Thanks all, where do I get this from? Regards Steve

Hello all, I want to check my ECT sensor on my 1999 4.6, is there a basic OBD reader that will read engine temp-or is it the expensive stuff? Regards Steve

Thanks all-got a new sensor-access is difficult to say the least! Any tips on how to get the old one out? Regards Steve

Had this for nearly 15 years. Broken down twice in that time due to faulty door lock-luckily once under the carport. It's been away for a couple of years having a bit of work done by a superb indy in between regular jobs-air con fixed (bonnet insulation wore through air con pipe), sunroof fixed...

Many thanks again! Ordered a new one. Car is looking and driving good! This was the only issue-I've got to take it back for a check over in a month to sort out any niggles-but I'll change this. The clear indicators were on it to show another customer-they have been replaced with the originals.

Hello all, The temp gauge has stopped working on my 99 Thor 4.6. I cannot see the sensor-the only one I can see has a black connector with 4 wires coming out of it-ECU temp sensor? Any advice on the position of the sensor and where to get one would be greatly appreciated.

Father had a 3.0L manual-RTG 260R-spot lamps on the front like the Sweeney one-but in Stratos silver with a black vinyl roof. Passed my test in a 1.3 Allegro with quartic wheel. He then bought this at 5 years old-first time I drove it I crapped myself-bit more powerful than 1.3 Allegro-boy did...

I drilled holes in my EAS lid years ago. I had problems with it faulting whilst towing from the Lake District-used my EAS light to reset it. Read the codes on my pc when home when it happened again-can't remember exactly as 8 years ago-but something to do with valveblock/drivers. Thought about...

Thanks all, Tried a couple-but got Admiral down to £160-so not too bad. Steve

Morning all, My 1999 P38 insurance is up for renewal. Do any classic insurers cover these at this age? Regards Steve

Sorry Nick just seen this, The pipes are behind the trim that hides the rear seat belts and the rear seat release button. They are a bit fiddly to get at-but one end of my pipe had come off. I'd take a photo-but my RR is in a garage having a mini restoration. Cheers Steve

Definitely. I've been very, very lucky. I bought a good one. I've had it 13 years-its broken down twice due to the bloody door locks-once under the carport and once I had to be recovered-so in 13 years not too bad. The battery needs replacing as it is at least 14 years old. It's had tyres, 4 new...

Indeed!!

Update, Range Rover due back in a few weeks. Been delayed as the specialist had a heart attack. Steve
