Yes, you should rarely find an obstacle that a 4x4 can’t drive through. However, there are lots of legitimate tank tracks that you can choose to drive but which do have more challenging obstacles, and on Salisbury Plain by ‘obstacles’ we pretty much always mean muddy puddles of varying length...

If you do Salisbury, a word or two of advice. If you value your paintwork or integrity of your panels don’t do the Old Marlborough road at Durrington. Also, don’t go mud holing on your own. Salisbury plain is a lot of fun in the wet, very boring in the dry. When wet some of the mud holes are...

Whatever car you do it, if you go green laning regularly it will get damaged.

You know Salisbury is in England….

I went for these as suggested - and have done some lanes in Dorset and Wales. I’m really impressed with them. Good shout. Nick

Thanks, i’ll try that. What do you think about the ride height settings?

Hi all My p38 is currently on its bumps. Plugged in the diagnostics and get two errors; and; my ride heights are as follows; Any suggestions for what I should be setting for ride heights and how to fix the FL signal error? Nick

The hose split, most likely because previous owners had worked around it but not re-attached the hose clamp to the bulkhead causing movement near the joint. Luckily the spilt was right by the end of the hose so we could cut an inch off and re-attach it.

Not quite today, but at the weekend took her green laning in Wales. Everything was fine until about 15 miles from home whenI I got a on to dual carriageway. All the EAS lights came on and she rose to full height then dropped on to the wheel arches, which is a horrible noise at 50mph. Emergency...

Drove down to the river for some quiet contemplation. Which is where I am right now.

Looks great. Love the piping on the seats.

Great post. Based on my experience, your ownership so far has been entirely typical! Also, I think all the p38 owners here love them too, like wayward children.

Shame. I was looking forward to talking about engine fans. I took mine off!

I have the ipod connector and a usb charger in my 2011 Vogue SE Autobiography - but it’s crap. Playing the ipod through the interface loses almost all of the vocals and bass. So I still use the Aux audio in in the rear cubby and the USB for power. So even though I suspect you can convert it -...

Fitted the whole EAS unit, block, pump, housing - fixed all EAS problems. Except the farting. However, as suggested by the good man, @Datatek , a new exhaust filter was duly fitted and now all is wonderfully quiet. And working -did I say that bit? Also, often when I say we, or I, in these posts...

Drove her all the way to town, a good 6 or 7 miles - and nothing went wrong! Then, you won’t believe this, drove her back again! As a reward for good behaviour I took her to a local LR specialist. Up a green lane, down a farm track, through a farmyard behind a barn - 20 LR’s all over the place...

lol! “my good man” to DT. I say old chap!

Now that is an awesome demonstration of why I don’t take my L322 green laning anymore, after a similar incident I decided it was far too nice and far too expensive to incur the bills. Not that buying and running a P38 has been cheap either - but at least i don’t worry about the paint work!

Also, as @Grrrrrr said, take it easy if you are on standard rims. If you have 20” rims and low profile tyres then be really careful when wading, in muddy ruts and in any rocky environment because you don’t have much rubber to absorb the impact of a sticky up bit. You can break a rim or just...

Yes. You have a higher wading depth with the L322 than say a p38, so unless you are really going for it you should do well in the water. However, the Diffs have breathers and if you wade in them without protecting them then you may have to service the diff’s afterwards.
