What did you expect? Those tyres are rated C for wet grip. The difference in stopping distance between A & C is 7 metres when braking from 50mph. I only use my P38 on tarmac & never fit anything but tyres rated A for wet grip.

They are unicorns.

The plastic pipe is 20+ years old & while originally flexible is now stiff & as I know to my cost can easily shatter unless you handle it very delicately when blowing through to ensure it is patent. I made a emergency repair with a length of 1/2" garden hosepipe & two jubilee clips. It lasted...

They insist on calling it a 'Rover' too.

The P38 is not a "truck" which is an Americanism. It's a "car". If you read the other forum that has loads of Yanks contributing they always call the P38 a "truck" even though they occasionally get corrected by the Brits.

Annoyingly Island-4x4 don't even publish their telephone number so you cannot call them with enquiries. This is in contrast to Rimmer Bros. who have always been very helpful on the phone when I have called them plus you can collect from their parts counter. Unfortunately they are a long way from...

The heated seats on my P38 have never worked in the thirteen years that I have owned the car as I have never bothered fixing them. I have had several other cars with heated seats & never bothered using them. Years ago when a colleague got a new car with heated seats he exclaimed that switching...

There shouldn't be any Jubilee clips. The fixings should all be self-clamping spring hose clips that apply an even pressure. They are much easier to remove & replace than jubilee clips too just need to get them on & off with a pair of Flexible Wire Long Reach Hose Clamp Pliers

Don't forget that the EAS is an active system. It's adjusting heights at all four corners as you drive along.

It's always better to start a new thread for a separate problem.

Nobody can code a key to a P38. If the OP is in the US then they will have a 315MHz fob & genuine replacements are no longer available from a main dealer (unlike here in Europe where we have 433MHz fob & can still purchase new from Land Rover). In this case the only option is to send the fob to...

Take your V5C to a Land Rover main agent & they will sell you an original flip style key for about £250. Alternatively Classic Rides North Wales will sell you a non-flip key for £162.50 but you will need to send them your key or borrow a widget to read the codes from your key...

You can get the equivalent of Radweld for A/C systems which can be very effective.

Mysterious fires in the ashtray? Reason for recall There is a possibility that a short circuit may occur in the cigar lighter bulb holder when the vehicle lighting system is operated. How to check if the vehicle is recalled Contact the local LAND ROVER dealership or manufacturer. You will not...

Just the one for me but it's RISK OF FIRE!!! https://www.check-vehicle-recalls.service.gov.uk/recall-type/vehicle/make/LAND%20ROVER/model/RANGE%20ROVER/year/2001/recalls

Me neither. It doesn't seem possible that it's over thirty years since he died.

I replaced the plastic pipe that runs from radiator to header tank with this hose https://turbozentrum.co.uk/Silicone-Vacuum-Hose-reinforced-8mm-black-BOOST-products The plastic pipe shattered when I disconnected it to blow through to ensure it was clear. I jury rigged a length of 1/2" hosepipe...

Here is a photo of the tool in action:-

Me too. It doesn't fall out & lights up the boot area much better than the original.

Personally I would just replace those rotted speakers with decent modern replacements like these
