Rather easy really ukadamwest. Getting a tad fed up of having to plonk in new bags every so often and I have never been that over the moon with the ride when in highway mode, too ruddy soft and skitish. I have read that these Gen IIIs offer a firmer ride when in highway mode and a less rigid...

Again it is you Datatek that is miss reading or the likes. As I said above: That page on RangeRovers.net covers the GEN IIIs and not the GEN IIs which are the ones I was asking if they had the same lower piston design as the Gen IIIs. Anyway, already got an answer from the factory, it looks...

And you are not reading all that is written:

I wish I could Datatek. Nowadays they have one of those stupid re-routers that automatically takes you to their EU (Cloggy) site when it notices where you are. I was trying only last night to get to their US site to see if they had any cut-away drawings of the Gen II's to see if the lower was...

By what I have read that is not so, it has something to do with the lower part of the unit: ("...The secret of the new Generation III air springs lies in the custom-made lower piston which is machined out of a solid aluminum billet, specially shaped to vary the spring rates according to...

But do the Gen II's have the same lower part as the originals, or are they the same as the Gen III's (firmer in highway mode but softer in off-road mode)?

How many of you have fitted the Arnott Gen III air springs to their P38s and how happy are you with them? Do they last as long as the originals or longer? Are they really as good as all the hype about them? Have any who have fitted them then replaced them with springs and if so why?

You mean Tirfor as in the Tirfor wire jack?

Yeah, the Talon looks rather like the Warrior, the only thing is I can not see if it can be controlled wirelessly. The Warrior S12000 SAMURAI 12 000lb can be. I have looked into the Warn ones and they seem like good units, but their price seems a tad on the high side when you look at the two...

I am looking to buying a winch, but I am at a lose when it comes to choosing. I am looking for either a 9.5 or 12 with Synthetic rope. Out of the following, which ones can be trusted: Warn Warrior Samurai Come Up T-Max Superwinch Talon I'll be honest, I like what I see with the Warrior...

Does anybody know what the items (folding chocks) in the following image are, who makes them and where you can buy them:

OK, thanks chaps

My P38 is a 2.5 DSE from 1999, so could someone please tell me which of the following I should be after: (2.5L 6 CYL BMW DIESEL) GASKET-CYLINDER HEAD, 1.62MM, 2 HOLES Part number: STC2030 or STC2031 HEAD GASKET BMW M51 3 HOLE NRR Thanks in advance.

Hence the title I gave this topic.... Hopefully off out to pick her up in about an hour. Looking forward to see what the "mechanic" has to say, should be a laugh. Will let you all know if I manage to get her home without too much hassle.

LOL, if it was just as simple as that.... Nah, in this case we are talking about a completely different kettle of fish. I am talking about a geezer who thinks he is a mech and what he says has to be written in stone. Let's put it this way, when he first told me that it was the head gasket he...

Datatek, how do I go about removing the offending insert? Well there lies what I think was the problem in the first place. The ruddy thermo was on the blink to start with, but as it did not fail completely and as there was proof of 2 hoses leaking it became a case of not seeing the wood for...

...and there lies the problem! A good machine shop in my neck of the woods!?! But I like the sound of it maybe being a sleeved insert.

Hi there, Our 2.5DSE has been in and out of the mechanics 3 times over the past 4 weeks trying to resolve an over heating problem. At first we thought it was the water pump and / or hoses (which we changed), then another hose seemed to be leaking which we went and changed. After all this the...
