Should have specified that I have a P38 2.5 DSE

Hi, I have developed a soft EAS fault, car was leaning for a few days but now seems to be level again. Anyone near by got a diagnostic tool I could use please? Would be most appreciated. Ian

I haven't found the EAS to be too bad really. Had a few issues but solved them by buying affordable service kits for the compressor and valve block. Check a site run by a guy called PaulP38, he has a great guide to servicing certain parts. Like someone said earlier, the EAS gets a lot of grief...

Right you all were. I cleaned and dried underneath the rubber gator and there was no leak. Enlisted the help of a friend and we drove out all the air. The life of an amateur is a frustrating one let me tell you Thanks chaps

Sorry Alan, somehow I only read the first three letters of your username! Ok I will go and try again once the school run is over and I can get back outside to my RR. Will either report success or come crawling back for more help later Cheers guys

Hi Tom, thanks for the reply. Yes I took the slave cylinder off the bell housing, and yes I reconnected the pipes correctly. If the fork pins have sheared would I still be able to get clutch using the pumping method I am currently having to use? As I use the clutch more during driving it...

Hi, So it's a new day and once again my (not-so) trusty P38 has developed another issue. This time it seems to be of my own making, the dash readout was informing me that I had low brake/clutch fluid (both are fed from one resevoir on my car) and so I topped it up to the required level. A...

Yep, the large central bolt did not need to come off, just the six smaller around the outside

No more vibration than a 20 year old diesel should have. I tightened all the bolts back up, didn't use RAVE though.

So I stripped the front end down today and removed said part. It was in a pretty bad way as far as the rubber was concerned! Anyway, I don't have the money to replace it so I just welded it into one whole piece and now the rattle has gone. Thanks a lot for the help folks

Ok thanks. I'll update when I have replaced the part.

I haven't long had it, so sometime before I owned it but could've been anytime. Like I say I changed it a few days back. One thing I forgot to mention; when I removed the fan belt the noise disappears. Is the part you're referring to somewhere in that area? When my friend was trying to explain...

Hi, I realise that this topic has been covered many times on many forums but I still do not have an answer, so here goes. I left my 1996 2.5 DSE P38 (manual transmission) standing for three weeks while I was away, and upon my return I noticed a nasty clattering noise coming from the...

I'm waiting for instructions on how I can purchase said items?

Haha! I was hoping someone would say that. I actually can get access to a diagnostic but the effort is for too great. Cheers

Hi guys, I am about to embark upon a service of my EAS system. Up to now I have only maintained my compressor, but now I am going to have a whack at the valve block. Several web guides advise de-pressurising the system using a diagnostic tool, but is there a way to do this without one? Thanks

Hi guys, Thanks for the replies. My RR is a 1996 model, but all is well now as it seems to have repaired itself. Never got around to finding out what happened, but the engine temp seemed fine. My RR has a lot of modifications on it made by previous owners, the majority of which I am clueless...

I'm new to this too, but when I bought mine it would not get up to ride height unless I left the door open for a while until the compressor became primed enough to raise up. I replaced the piston head seal inside the compressor and now it works perfectly.

Hi guys. I arrived home from work today and parked up my P38 (2.5 DSE). A few hours later I was on my way back out and realised that the fans at the front of the car where running. I started the engine, switched it off, and that helped for a while but it has happened again. They are...

I haven't had much time to investigate of late, the switch does not seem to be working but there are a few suspect wires hanging around. The contents of the drum was a yellow liquid, probably veg oil, but it had a very strong smell as though there has been some kind of solvent added to keep it...
