    Nanocom won't boot when connected to car

    Sorry to hijack this thread, but i may have a similar misfire problem, not really sure as it's only a feeling that something's not quite right. I've got a nanocom and seeing your post about monitoring the live data and identifying a misfire on cyl 6, thought that would be much easier than...

    Has anyone used these people:- RANGE ROVER P38 1994-2001 AIR CON RADIATOR/CONDENSER NEW - 2 YEAR WARRANTY | eBay for aircon condensers? The price is a lot lower than most of the others and they have 99.9% pos feedback on nearly 38000 sales. Just had mine re-gassed, passed the vacuum and...

    p38 lapbelt to 3point seatbelt

    I had a look at this before we bought our P38, and I'd thought of the 2nd hand reel bolted to the boot floor, but the problem with that, is the looping of the 3rd strap over the top inboard corner of the wider 'half' of the rear seatback, in a front end shunt, would impose too large a load on...

    EAS Specialist Salisbury Area PLEASE

    What happens if you press the inhibit switch? I usually keep mine held at motorway height (I think it rides slightly better) and press access when parking to make it easier for my wife to get in & out. On re-starting it just goes straight back to motorway height. It does seem like a switch...

    Tearing my Bl**dy hair out! - Help!

    Careful Saint - you may be in danger of becoming an 'embarrassing Dad'! :D Congratulations BTW, on your new arrival - I would add a thought - Summer's a lovely name, but I would suggest you give her a second (or third) name she can use as an alternative if she doesn't like Summer. When our...

    EAS Saga finally over. One month of humbling education.

    Not just newbies, this forum is the 'livliest' of the various LR ones, and you must be able to take a bit (read quite a lot) of teasing, BUT it is also by far the most responsive (and funny to boot). To be fair, Druim's plonker comment is a little out of character, he's usually very helpful and...

    EAS Saga finally over. One month of humbling education.

    "What a Plonker" That's a bit harsh! It was a steep learning curve - and congrats to JFP for sticking with it, no knowledge is useless, and the sense of satisfaction when you finally crack the problem cancels out the frustration . . . I've been there, and you'll have the comfort of knowing the...

    Again 4.6 overheating your thoughts please LOL

    Blocked rad? Get it hot , turn off then feel all over the inner surface of the rad, any cold areas show it's blocked. Otherwise, rolled up newspaper test of viscous fan, or impeller off the water pump . . . ? Good luck. A

    Panel Lights

    I tried LEDs in mine and didn't like the result - they don't spread the light very widely (at least the ones I got didn't) and created 'hot spots' on the message centre that were distracting. Didn't have them in long enough to worry about dimmability. A

    New LSE

    Looks lovely, I'd be interested to know what you paid for it, there's several on eblag for north of £10k. +1 on the cam warning though, I wouldn't bother, it could lead to a domino effect of failures down through the engine and drive train, even though it's only got 80k on it. I had my LSE for...

    Very Unusual Problem can u help ! please

    I had a similar problem recently - couldn't communicate with the EAS ECU - after loads of checking, I narrowed it down to a faulty delay timer relay (it's a tall black one under the pass seat towards the door side, move the seat right back and you can reach it) not powering the ECU. Quick...

    transferbox test

    Have you tried jacking the other front wheel? If the wheel you raise turns the prop, then that half shaft and the diff are OK, and you have a prob in the VCU/transfer box. BUT if you raise the other front wheel and it turns freely WITHOUT turning the prop, the halfshaft (& poss diff) on that...
