Just noticed that the negative lead to the battery has about 1/2 inch exposed cable between the plastic coating and the clamp as though it's been stretched and pulled back. Could this be linked to my problem?

New battery on this morning - type 664 110amp, well pleased - for an hour as when I got back to the car it would not turn over. Started immediately on a jump start so I'm thinking is the alternator goosed. Not getting any warning messages or lights in the cabin. When it drains there are no dash...

Will this spec and size be ok? I think it will fit but difficult to measure tray with an oompah lumpah battery in the way. Manufacture Alphaline Volt 12 AH 130 Cold Cranking 1000 Warranty 4 Years Length (mm) 330 Width (mm) 172 Total Height (mm) 242 Weight (kg) 29.8 Layout Hold Down...

Just looking at Tanya and Halfords for what is recommended . Does it sound like mine has the wrong battery in it now?? What is max length and width. What have you squeezed in?

Mine is about 2inches short in length of filling the tray but appears to fit width wise....it's branded MOUR or something and can't see a date on it or anything. It drained today after showing no signs of low battery at all. Parked up at 9am in the work car park and was flat at 5pm. Just got it...

Old thread resurrection..........I have perfect FM reception but rubbish AM reception, which is unfortunate as I only listen to TalkSport. So they must be separate aerials, yes? Anyone know where the AM aerial is on a 2001 P38.

OMG! He used kickdown :doh: :pop2: How's the engine?? :pop2: Not used mine yet in case everything breaks and goes into meltdown :screaming_bug_eye_f By my reckoning if you get in the car quietly, don't put the stereo on loud, and drive it like Miss Daisy, the car will hardly know you are...

Id the aircon is set to Auto but the cabin temp set to 21 degrees plus, is the air con still working or is the heater just doing its stuff and the aircon clicks in at lower temps? I leave mine on Auto mostly but will turn it off and just have the heater if it makes a difference. Also...

My hazard switch stopped working today also and thought it would just be an easy fuse fix but can't see a fuse for it so I now watch with interest on how you get on before i start repairing mine.

Oh great :) not as bad as I thought then. Cheers :banana:

I've got 170 miles so far on my first tank following conversion, and the last light is flashing so I'll be empty soon. Was hoping for 50 miles more so I'll run another tank through to see if that improves. Hopefully it will! Mixed rush hour and motorway driving mainly.

69p at Worsley Autogas in Manchester.

Oh so they are the puddle lamps.....righhhht! oh well they work fine :rolleyes::hysterically_laughi Thanks Tommo.

Think so, 2" sqaure on inner edge of each door

I think I've found the cause of my problem.......they are frickin' reflectors not LIGHTS! :wtf::5biamwithstupid: Feeling short changed as well, reflectors ...tut...:lol:

Hi, If all four puddle lamps are not working on any door, does that point to all the bulbs needing replacement or a general circuit problem. I can't see a fuse that relates to puddle lamps so should i just order four bulbs or check something else first? What do you think?

Is the 15mm hole not the hole where the cabin temperature sensor is?

it's got to be black 4.6 vogue with cream/white leather preferably 2000+ (although from what you guys are saying it could be older, as it doesn't matter) and FSH, preferably main dealer. Sorry mate, you should have been on Ebay last week because that's exactly what I bought. 57k on the...

This is what i did to make it up. Simply make up a cable to connect the green (pin4) +ve and White (pin3) -ve to the battery charger. On a CTEK - cut the black/orange connector cable and hook up with the pins mentioned. No other wires needed... So it would be: CTEK orange/black connector...

I used to charge the battery on my Discovery 3 through the tow electrics with a CTEK 3600. It was very easy, no messing about and neat. Can it be done on the P38 or is there good reasons not to?? There seems to be a split view on whether the battery should be disconnected prior to charging on...
