I think dear domino is thinking that its looking a touch under pigeon... But to be fair for a P38 L322 hybrid it doesnt look to bad, have you got any more pictures?

It begins! If its been stood for a while at a dealer with people messing and stop start it might have low battery voltage. Might be worth taking it for a long run or get it on a battery charger and see if it comes back. As for bluetooth, what are you pairing it to? Were there any phones in the...

Well a P38 Diesel has far more power than a wheezy TD5! As mentioned just check the cooling system is up to scratch and an auto gearbox oil change cant hurt if its not been done for a while! Another thing you might need to consider is a tacho as you'll be 2.25t of rangie and 3 ton of (I assume...

Fitted a replacement ABS ECU appears to have helped my ABS problems, need to get it on the diagnostic to clear out any remaining errors and see how the land lays. Thanks Martynv8... Will send you a PM shortly. Fitted replacement locking wheel nuts after dear old dad managed to snap a pin out of...

From my limited experience with TDV8's (I've known a couple of guys with them). The list of problems they had were odd but interesting, alternators on both of them and also weirdly fuel tanks on both, one also had to have a fuel level sender. However stunning machines and very jealous! I hope...

Went to get something out of the car, noticed the two new tailgate struts I had purchased sitting there and figured "how hard can they be". Turns out to be probably the easiest thing to change on a P38? I would say the air filter is more of a pain than fitting those little gas struts! What a treat!

How did you open the bonnet to fit a new battery if you couldnt open the drivers door?

Hi guys, I need to take the battery of so I can remove the dash cluster from my 2001 vogue with navigation. Now the official procedure is to loosen the clamps cycle the ignition and remove the negative lead within 17 seconds to avoid having alarm and eka issues. However the navigation computer...

The compartment behind the battery on your 2001 Motronic V8 is supposed to be empty, on the earlier Gems cars it is the location of the ECU. The Motronic/Bosch ECU is behind/next to the EAS Box. As for your TC and ABS errors, I have been chasing these my self. First job is to check it with...

I'd say most of those were factory features!

Steering wheel of center might be drag link adjustment needed. On my last P38 when it was changed the steering wheel was miles out, quick adjustment and it was no problem again.

Was it that cheap one on ebay in Bolton I think it was? Silver the listing was "in need of TLC" and had mcdonalds rubbish left in it from the PO? Best place to start with electrical issues on a range rover is to make sure that the battery and alternator is in tip top condition as random error...

Go on... lets see your list of shame!

Has his bottom lip retracted yet with regards to the new forum?

Does that make it around £240 then for a P38 Motronic?

Dont tempt me!

See above! Unless its been decatted? From reading your original post, it appears you have copied and pasted someone elses problems which are similar to your own, is that the case? Have you actually changed the MAF? Checked for air leaks? Checked its got the correct spark plugs (what year is...

Cats collapsed in the exhaust?

I'm glad you think so haha. I haven't yet had the dash cluster out to see if bulbs are removed but the new bulbs have come. However I have a sneaking suspicion that the telltales will work with a functioning ecu. I've seen a few references to the exact same problems I have all fixed with new...

I had considered this which adds a further layer of complication! Might just buy that one of Martyns and be done with. Research has shown that the problems and error code that I have comes from the ECU being dead as well. Hmm
