So my guys have had it for a few days now and apparently the rear prop shaft was not great, a bit of movement on the UJ and the coupling was in a bit of a mess so that has been changed but the main problem they have found was that the VC was shot, so they have replaced the whole transfer box...

Hi I found that on the first item in Wammers' list the hole goes oval over time an causes the crack as the pin moves, it's about a ten minute fix well worth it

Hi My idea was to NOT spend 20k on a car but still have something that was nice to drive and had off road ability. I like the boxy shape of the P38 and I could not find anything else I liked, I had just sold my brand new Defender 90 that I could get on with so the P38 was to be my cheap...

Of course Keith, many thanks as always :) Ash

I consider myself reprimanded and educated.......:) I was just going by an instruction on RR.net looking for an easy out...... he just said a dead short between case and terminal means they're duff, I clearly need t o brush up on my electronics

Thanks Wammers Yes kit is on its way, just wondered, as the transistors have a good resistance reading across both of them. I guess I'll just replace them and take it from there. Thank you also for the "Island" link the other day.......can't see how I missed that, getting a few senior...

Just whipped out the right hand blower motor which was running full tilt with a view to fitting new transistors. However there is plenty of resistance across the 2 transistors and they are not shorting to the case, any of you clever chaps know if I should carry on with the replacement. or is...

Thank you very much Gents Ash

Thanks but I am sending the car to my specialist to do a load of stuff and was just looking to get some parts so I could get the vehicle back quicker. I have found a kit on Rimmer's site for 30.00 + vat maybe that's the way to go and just use the seal as the other bits look pretty crap

Hi everyone I have a weep on the front diff and the pinion seal now comes as a kit at £116!!! Does anyone know of a source where I can just get the seal or should I just bite the bullet and buy the kit I have tried Island and a couple of other sources but no luck..... Many thanks Ash

Hi Zaff See my post on page 1, I have fitted the Delphi pads and discs, however I also replaced the callipers and the brakes are very good now. I would just go with the Delphi option, as wiser heads than mine have stated, the grooved/drilled option is purely aesthetic in this instance, if...

Hi Domino I just replaced my front discs, pads and callipers. I got the Delphi discs and pads, carriers and Britpart callipers. The general consensus of the forum was that the Britpart calipers, although not great, have such a good price (33.00 +vat) as apposed to 100.00 plus for an OEM and...

Yes I thought that was also a bit odd, not really sure who this programme is aimed at. They also did one on the 993 Porsche, of which I have a little experience, there were also some very strange priority fixes on that episode too. Nice that they gave the P38 Range Rover a good review tho'

Sorry if this has been posted before, only just found it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgXS716aEvE

Happy new year and thanks for everyone's help and advice last year

I created a little airlock in my system a few weeks ago causing the engine to get warm, the guys on the forum gave me this filing procedure, no problems since. Start again with a cold engine, top up, start the engine and continue to top up with the engine idling, ensure you have water coming...

Ok thanks, will do, it just doesn't feel like tyres, I thought that was old hat these days with modern balancing equipment. Strangely, the rear nearside Pirelli destroyed itself for no apparent reason after about 5k miles Thanks for the advice Ash

Hi Steve Many thanks of the kind offer for the loan of the CRV I have done all the jobs with time to spare. Can't seem to solve this vibration problem, no big deal but just a bit of a concern Anyway thanks again and wishing you a very happy new year Kind regards Ash

Hi Everyone So having replaced my UJs, the old ones were pretty much like new unfortunately, I still have this strange harmonic wobble that you can feel at 60mph Having eliminated the ujs and I am sure it is not tyres as it just doesn't feel like that, does anyone have any idea, what else it...

Steve, you're so kind. Thanks very much for the offer..... Ash
