Thanks Domino - I'd wondered about that - I used my battery charger for testing, assuming it was 12v @ 4amps. I've just checked it and it outputs 9.6v . . . I didn't check it using the car battery when reinstalling, and it seems to be working OK at the moment. Might do that later today if I...

Thankyou Wammers! Can I suggest a couple of additional quotes for your sig :D:D:D "Follow my instructions the others are incorrect." Wammers - the definitive answer. Alastair

Yet another update . . . Got it back in the car, went up and down fine, went for a run, after a couple of miles, intermittent heavy vibration when pump runs. Bugger. :( Out and apart again, seems like the counterweight grub screw was maybe not accurately aligned to the flat and had allowed...

Picked up a new seal from these people:-...

FURTHER UPDATE - gave up trying to remove the armature from the bearing, ground off the distortion on the end of the shaft from hitting it, fiddled the brushes back to replace the end plate and put it all back together. Used a little vaseline on the seal which made it a little easier to move...

Are the EAS devils finally being exorsised? The current pope is a moderniser but I'm not sure this kind of thing's in his remit . . . :D A

UPDATE - finally got an allen key that fits - 3/32" and removed the counterweight and piston. Blue loctite on grub screw threads, very tight, but moved eventually. New seal arrived from these people:- RANGE ROVER P38 EAS AIR SUSPENSION COMPRESSOR PUMP MOTOR SEAL LINER U2 | eBay, O rings fine...

Presumably your first child? Congrats etc. Welcome to the incredibly complicated world of child transportation . . . I would suggest doing nothing until she's tried using the pram a few times. Silver Cross prams were designed in/for a bygone age where people usually walked everywhere/had...

Hi Nige - yes it will, yes you can . . . :) A

No droop here :). I can get a spanner in between the box and the wing . . . Incidentally, I find it very intriguing how threads can drift off topic into weird (spelt it correctly this time - you can't edit thread titles) and wonderful (and rude - you know who you are) areas. It's a bit like...

OK :eek: :) Thanks Wammers A

Many thanks gentlemen. If I'm taking it apart again I may as well do the seals. I'll order a seal kit - any recommendation on which is the best, I seem to remember there were some that were below par. Only need the teflon seal and 2 O rings, everything else is fine & dandy. In passing, is...

EAS is working fine, but over the last couple of days it occasionaly makes a heavy vibration when the pump runs. Sometimes it's quiet as normal then the next time it starts it rumbles so you can hear it in the car. Seems to be producing air as the car goes up and down as quickly as normal...

Hi Nige - been meaning to text you Re the bumper (I wanted to have a look at the inboard mounting points on your bumper before I removed mine by drilling out the remaining bolt) but v busy ATM. Not sure where you mean on the tinworm holes, but didn't it pass its MOT a few months ago? No...

Did this start suddenly or has it gradually developed? Some more history would help in the diagnosis . . . A

Possibly the water pump impeller is off the shaft, there seems to be no significant circulation of coolant . . . A Mania - try to keep the problem in one thread otherwise we'll get confused. I've had another thought - I'll put it on your other thread.

Sounds like an airlock somewhere, some P38s are easier to bleed than others, usual way is to park it facing up a hill, then carefully open the cap and 'burp' it. There are loads of threads on here - use the search facility. Have you checked that the thin pipe from the top of the rad to the...

You don't have to take the dash out again to do this, there's a couple of guides here:- https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/50760784/Range%20Rover%20P38A%20Heater%20Matrix%20O-ring%20Replacement%20Guide.pdf and here:-http://www.rangerovers.net/repairdetails/heateroring.html that show a quick...

Bear in mind that this is by far the most responsive forum, on some of the others you're lucky to get any reply in under a week. . . Not like here where you'll get:- 5 sensible suggestions, 4 (sometimes conflicting) solutions, 3 facetious comments, 2 lots of personal abuse and a partridge...
