Ergo, a badly fitted exhaust. In my early days of P38 ownership a long time ago, I suffered an EAS fault with a carvan on the hook whilst touring Yorkshire. No place to stop safely in heavy traffic, I did about 50 miles like that on the bump...
A rose is still a rose by any other name. Exhausts are standard kit and it wasn't badly fitted. I like to believe I can spot potential faults but, even I would have missed that one. The only problem is they left the U bolt pointing sharp end...
So you can rule out previous unless it returns, the wheel speed sensor is tied into hdc, abs and suspension.
I'd be looking live readings at the wheel sensors below and around 5mph. Look and see if there are any glitches and uneven readings on...
Found the box. Looks like I replaced it 9 years ago with a Mobiletron VR-VW010 ... or possibly VVV010. Has another number underneath: 4 717020 225646. In theory I could just put the original gubbins back.
You may have bought a real pauper car😩
My son's was a neglected car when we bought it, a complete replacement front axle from the outset and a further 2000 euros in parts followed shortly...
She's now doing her bit and has done reasonably well...
Ha Ha. Never heard of that. Would need to be a sudden failure that dropped the car onto rocks or similar. Even on the bump stops, the exhaust is nowhere near the ground. If the exhaust was badly fitted maybe the axles came into contact ...
Fair enough but, I view my P38 as a layered onion. In the beginning, the LR engineers would have started with the basic car and then embellished it by adding layers of toys from sales' advice, who obtained their info from various focus groups...
Interesting, my info is that the input shaft is the same, only the oil pump might be different, so live and learn. My info was from someone who claimed to have made the swap. Stuff has been posted on LZ about the swap but it was some time ago...
We are well out of my pay grade here... but RAVE does mention that the 24 is longer than the 22... but I have no idea where this extra length comes from. Pictures though....obvs.
Right then, after seeing our mate @Datatek last Sunday I am now the owner of a zfhp24 box.
After comparing a couple of things the input shaft and oil pump drive are different lengths.
Now the question...
Can both the input shaft and oil pump...
Pull the EAS relay locateed under the passenger seat after you stop and see if it drops all round or just one corner. It sounds like the compressor is feeding a leak so it is not going to last long unless the leak is fixed.
This is what I have found:
For the cable crimps, I have a hydraulic crimp tool, but need to get some crimps large enough for the cables. If I go this route will also do the salt & vinegar copper cleaning & probably solder the ends as...
I think you may be surprised. Running one of these without diagnostics available is asking for trouble IMO there are so many potential electronic failures on vehicle that is over 20 years old.. Gates & MIcroshyte have nothing to do with the Nanocom
I think this is a 'horse for courses' discussion. EAS may have its advantages but, I don't need them and I definitely do not need its failure rate. The nearest I get to 'off road' is when I visit a car exhibition or a National Trust property. My...
Just abit of an update.
Ive been running the new fan in the car since ive started this thread and it seems to be performing quite well.
I dont have any actual numbers relating to fuel consumption because driving around town i quite like the...
After I had driven the ten miles home. Parked up, left the engine running while I fetched my DVM and then popped the bonnet and took the reading. Car radio was on but nothing else other than the HEVAC.
