    diesel auto gearbox

    If a fluid /filter change doesn't cure it, go to a gearbox specialist. It costs but it's cheaper than breaking your gearbox, don't mess around with autoboxes unless you know what you're doing

    what could this be

    Does the engine actually get hot, or does the gauge just say it's hot? A back flush of the system won't hurt (well it might, you could find a blocked rad) Make sure it's properly bled. Good luck

    A few problems if someone could help

    I'd disconnect the bloody thing, mine was picking up my wife's MG remote and amusing the neighbours, til the Rangy alarm started going off during the night. Lizzie, you may think about a new battery, Rangy's don't like the battery going flat.

    first trip out

    I've heard that diesel P38s are sluggish without a caravan, so with one it's going to be worse. There's plenty of press to say that the BMW engine is marginal in a Rangy at best. The only one I've driven was a manual and it needed working to move. It was showing 29.8mpg on the computer mind!

    1997 P38 4.6 on LPG: Backfire

    Single point systems backfire cos the mixture is too lean. See specialist and get it reset cos it can do damage to MAF and throttle butterfly. When mine backfired, it blew the airbox to bits (with fart flap in it!) and didn't half make the bonnet jump! Mind you the guy in the Merc I was passing...

    A dull thud.

    Pensioner? Jack Russell-I went over one of these in a mk1 Escort, the bloody thing jumped up, bit my chin and f***** off. jack Russells do the same

    Advice -Induction kit for P38 V8 with LPG conversion

    And do not run the engine with the mixture lean (hi flow air filter) without getting the mixture reset, you can get the mother of all backfires that can wreck your throttle butterfly, or in my case blow my airbox to bits!

    Who said this was a good idea??

    take it back and make a noise, even a trade sale must be fit for purpose, don't touch it yourself!!! Yet anyway

    WTF have I done? I've got that sick feeling in the pit of my stomach....

    Newby from the northeast

    Hello m8, pleased there's someone else from up here on this forum thingy. Good luck with the Landy. They aren't complicated, designed to be fixed infields by farmers.

    P38 Sound system into Classic

    Can't think of a good reason to stick p38 sound in a classic, except for some really weird form of masochism. Much more grief than any sane person needs-check out us p38ers changing it to something more up to date and simpler! A decent new head unit+speakers and sub and you're sorted

    lpg

    Got my p38 without LPG, gems engine, I had an OMVL single point system fitted at a cost of £1000. I've done 7k miles since fitting and it's been spot on. I've done long motorway runs and stuck in city traffic with no probs. I'm paranoid about headgaskets and dropped liners so I spend a lot of...
