how?

Thank you very much for all your help. It is very much appreciated.

Ours is a 2.5 DSE

Where is the RF receiver situated and what does it look like?

Sorry hadn't read all replies before posting reply :o

It can't be the earth because it running the battery down and i'm convinced that if it wasn't earthed it wouldn't run it down. I have the battery on charge now and it's been on charge nearly 2hrs and is nearly fully charged. My son tested it and it is charging at 13.4 volts. Basically just at a...

:( Help required please. Our 1997 P38 manual Range Rover won't start. It keeps running the battery down over night. Any ideas? It did this before about a couple of weeks ago. Tried to start it and it just drained the battery instantly. So we put a fresh starter motor on and that fixed the...

No don't have a workshop manual as yet and yes there is oil leaking. My son had a look but couldn't see the oil filler or level bung. It is a manual gearbox. Just realised I forgot to add that to my question. Will pass info on and hopefully all will be well again. Thank you.

;) There is good AND bad in everything.

:confused: Where is the oil filler and level bung on the gear box? Also is there any known faults with oil seals on the output shaft to the front diff? It is a 97 P38 manual RR Would be grateful any help thank you.

We have a 1997 R reg P38. It has it's faults and niggles and probably always will. But you know what, I love it!! I won't let my hubby part with it. Would definately have another one.

:) At last we have cured the hot starting problem on our P38. All it took was a little black box purchased off ebay that tricks it into thinking the engine is cold. It puts the glow plugs on for 30 seconds. doesn't alter anything else. No more sat there turning engine over and over. If you want...

I thought I might have to contact the dealer. Just thought there may of been another way. Thanks for comfirming it and thanks for the help. I will ring them tomorrow.

Apart from contacting a dealer is the any other way of finding out what the emergency access code is for my 97 P38 RR. There was no card with the vehicle when we bought it and there is nothing in the owners manual. We need to fit the hot start fix to it and are not sure if we need this code or...

Cheers for that I'll show the brains of the family. ;) My lad's an engineer so he'll know what to do, it's abit beyond me!! :o Plus he'll be quicker.

Wish you could remember!!:)

We used to have a BMW 525TD and it was never a problem to start. Kind of thought that with RR having BMW engine it would be same. I know not the same thing, but you know where I'm coming from?:confused:

Tell me about it. Local dealer was gonna charge us £1800 for new injection pump and that was with labour and VAT. :mad: Today I have just managed to find a second hand one for £200. That's for a salvaged one that's in good condition. :) Some difference in price isn't it? We've only had...

Does your heater plug come in when it's warm? Our's doesn't and it was a nightmare to start when it was warm. This is what I do, as turning the engine over when warm, give it full throttle whilst engine is turning, lift foot off and put half throttle on and it'll start. Well ours does...

What's it doing? Sounds similar to ours
