Maybe one for @pwood999 ? I used my horn the other day and wasn't very impressed. Then I heard @MrGorsky 's horn and it didn't sound like mine. A little investigation revealed my right hand horn was a) loose and b) not working. If you take the grill and slam panel off and then remove the...

Later v8 with the Thor engine. Anyone know who the original manufacturer was? Is it like the diesel and there's a metal impellar version that is preferred over the original? Recommendations?!

Hi all, Having put the engine back together, neither keys will sync. Earlier today I got the Nonocom out and had a play. Tried clearing RF memory - nothing. I even tried triggering the locks with the Nanocom rather than using the key ion the lock but still no joy. Central locking works fine...

Anyone ever seen inside or know what is included in the Land Rover genuine head gasket kit, part number STC3694? I think the part number might have changed to RA20008 for some of the after-market kits. I tried one once and remember that a) it didn't include the head gasket, arguably the most...

Still losing coolant. Viscous fan roars and seems to be OK. Thermostat replaced. UV dye put in coolant but no sign of it coming out anywhere. On a 10 mile run I am losing a litre of coolant. The only place I can think it is going is the exhaust via the head gasket - which was replaced 2 years...

Not the Rangie but the Jag, more specifically, its alternator. The battery is only a year old but a few times recently it felt a bit sluggish on turnover. Charged the battery and then started it and tested voltage across the battery - 13.7V. switched on every electric thing I could find and...

Anyone got any idea what size and threads the fittings are on the transmission oil cooler pipes are on the manual box? The bodgit I did last year with Quiksteel has failed and the underneath is mucky. MoT test soon and I need to fix it. Not only is finding the replacement parts tricky it is...

3 wheel nuts (Britpart) from an L322 but will probably fit a RRS. 2 are still in the packet. A set of glow plugs. I think these are for the TD6 fitted to the L322. No brand but still in the packet. They're very long and thin. Free to a good home but you'll have to pick them up or pay for postage.

Hi all, Collective thinking required, please. Yesterday I jumped in the P38A to nip to the shops. The 3 amigos took a little longer to go out than usual and then I set off. I touhed the brake and the pedal went all the way to the floor! Furiously pumping the car came to a standstill. I then...

Hi all, As some of you know my #5 cylinder was blowing into the coolant on my 2.5 DT. The head is off awaiting pressure testing and I am wondering what else I might as well do while she's apart. Timing chains and sprockets seem sensible at 170k miles. How about turbo refurb? I think @Mark...

P38 manual box, 1995 oil burner. Possibly a question for @briansp38dse as I think he's been here before ... I'm having to wiggle the gearstick more and more often to get the reverse lights to light up and suspect the switch is giving up the ghost. I cannot remember where the switch is but...

Looking at the OBD plug on the scrapper because it doesn't work. There's a spare red and grey wire at the back. Is that normal?! Should it go somewhere? No spare bits of metal that I can see. Checked all fuses in BECM and they're all good. Any other ideas? I think this isn't @tomcat59alan 's...

@brianp38dse popped up today and we had a go at my brakelines. As others have noted these are attached to the body of the car before it is lowered onto the chassis. Access is not easy. There are 2 layouts for RHD cars (mirrored for LHD). The pipes for the rear go down the drivers side on the...

Hi all, my LHS (near side) interior light hasn't worked in ages. I did have a play a few years ago but then it dropped down my priority list. Today I decided to have a fiddle. Marty very kindly sent me this: "The interior lights are all driven off the same circuit in the BECM, and then they...

RRDT has received some EZ-outs that claim to last a lifetime. That sounds like the sort of challenge that deserves a sweepstake! Cast your bets, gentlemen!

So it has finally stopped raining, or at least steady spots and warmish which is equivalent to a Lancastrian summer so I decided to investigate my Airbag Fault message from last year on my 1995 diesel. Nanocom says bulb open circuit which sounds simple but both bulbs work fine in their little...

Wanted to see the prefix! Surely nothing could be wrong with such a young, well engineered luxury car?

My bottle jack has burst its seals. Is it possible to fix it? Anyone had one apart?

Today I replaced my rear airbags. All went smoothly, I thought. Started her up and went for a short run and all seemed good. Parked up and went inside to fit a showerpump (another saga of woe there but not RR related). Went back out this evening and the rear of the Rangie is on the floor. I've...

Hi chaps, Today's issue is the starter motor fuse has started to blow every few starts. It started after i did the transfer box rear seal but cannot think that radio motor loom is connected? My laptop is bust but squinting at my phone i think the fuse is only connected to the starter...
