    Resetting Alarm/Immobiliser sequence.

    Sorry not to have replied earlier, just to say thank you, your link with the EKA code illustration seems to have saved the day. Though the garage claims this was what they were doing anyway! Once again sorry for not thanking you earlier.

    Resetting Alarm/Immobiliser sequence.

    Hi, The bloke in the garage said he was following the instructions he had found in the user manual which seems to be the same as outlined on here, one of the other things he said, is that it could be the battery not being the correct model for the car.....which I thought he was talking...

    Resetting Alarm/Immobiliser sequence.

    Have done, also checked the EKA code is correct with LR...or at least the garage my RR is currently stuck in claims it has done.

    Overheating ( again )

    Tried bleeding it a couple of times as I thought the garage might just have "topped it up" after changing the P ring no change, earlier today decided to remove the stat and flush the whole thing out, did that earlier, tried a couple of tentative short runs, all OK, then took her out on a longer...

    300 TDi fuel leak.

    Which can be a bit of a sod to access in itself,carpets and soundproofing foam to lift etc, if your not too bothered about looks the quickest way is to take a Stanley knife and cut an access panel to the access panel:)

    Fuel Lift pump priming problem

    Will get back to the morn, though looking at it earlier I have a horrible feeling I have bolloxed the olive joint mating! 20 odd years since I last tried spannering a landy, didn't realise how addictive it is:)
