That sounds pretty good news, so I don't have to mess about with the EBR lever. Hopefully diagnostics with point us in the right direction. It generally is a decent car, it's only done 126k and has had loads of work done prior to me owning it for the last two years. Always the way, I only put a...

That looks like the one

It's similar but not got the silver button for P. I will photo it in the morning so you can see it.

I'm not sure if it's electronic or cable. It is the 3.0 ltr. it has a gear lever and not the round button. I am getting the codes read first to have a laugh then once it's fixed it can have the gear box service.

Is the emergency park release underneath the cup holders in the center console? I saw a YouTube video earlier showing a red lever to pull up so you could move the vehicle but it was not clear weather it was to select neutral or disengage the emergency parking brake. Also it was on a slightly...

Thank, you, so, much for replying. Yes strange issue, engines strays and runs, full revs no problem but once driving as engine warms the engine turns off. Sometimes it does a stutter first. Always starts up again no problem but then as soon as you put into drive it switches off. I had to drive...

Right, I, need to tow my RRS tdvs 3.0 about 2 miles to the garage for repairs. How do you go about it. I have seen a few bits of info about manually selecting neutral with the red pull lever under the cup holders in the center console but not much else of any help. Most info says do not tow it...

will do

I found a local rural garage near me who do a lot of Landrover work on Anglesey

The car does start perfectly and runs brilliantly so I dont feel the other codes are affecting really but Im not an expert

Update. water problem fixed, it was 100% an airlock. Took stat out again boiled it in a pan of water and it opened perfectly. I removed the brass bypass valve and drulled an 8mm hole in the stat body. Refitted and recharged the cooling system. All good no more erratic over heating issues. Next...

Thought as much.

Right, I have drained the overfilled oil and refilled to the correct level. I have checkef stat opens in a pan of boiling water and it does. I have refilled the cooling system and believe I have purged all the air from the system. I have been on a 100 mile run around and all seems good regarding...

Not quite. The oil level is static at approx 8mm above top mark on dip stick. At last oil change a bit to much was put in and I was to lazy to drop it again and refill. When I say it's running hot, it shows temp on guage as just above the center mark, which is higher than it used to run before...

I will do all the checks once I get home after weekend. Thank you all for good advice

in disgrace again

I am going to take the stat out and drill an 8mm hole in it to see if it helps (this is the 2nd brand new stat tried in past 2 months). I was wondering if the surging could be caused by having to much engine oil in sump? The level on the dip stick is about 8mm above the high level mark. If the...
