Hi all My P38 failed its test today on high emissions. First time I've been to this centre - never even had a warning on emissions before. They are suggesting it needs an entire exhaust system including cats which is probably right. My question is - as I am loathe to spend the money at this...

Did the heater O rings with Stufer's guide. 4 hours. Didnt bother taking photos as its a well documented game! I have since found threads of people fussing over how the seals sat as they have experienced leaks afterwards.... now worried! think I got it right through. Quick question - my P38 has...

Hi Stu - used your guide a few days ago to do my O rings - brilliant write up. managed it in 4 hours start to finish which isn't too bad for a novice. Saved myself a huge amount at a garage. Cheers Josh

Wheel bearing. check. How much is this job to get done typically? assume you need a bearing press. - should I do all four while I'm at it or is it just a case of replacing them as they go??

Hi all Have a 99 P38 Thor 4.0.... as I'm driving I have started to notice what I would describe as a throbbing/humming noise - sounds like it is coming from the front right drive area. could this be drive shafts? hubs? What do people think? Josh

Thanks all. Will pick some genuine items up. For bleeding am I right in saying that I should fit the inlet pipe, fill the coolant, run the system and connect the return pipe once I get some coolant coming through and then allow the system to run and air to escape through the vent pipe by the...

Hi all My heater inlet hose let go today ('99 4.0 THOR). This happened outside Halfords of all places and one of the wiper fitters there fashioned me a bit of hose to get home from his spares package. Chap! Anyway - going to replace a few hoses in the engine bay now as they are all old...

Looks good and is easy to use/understand. Must have taken a LOT of work to get it all sorted and running. Many thanks.

Domino have you got a link to the exact plugsvyou bought? Cheers

I had rough running and a load of random codes and I replaced the MAF/Lambda sensors and this sorted it. I have also wondered about plugs... I presume the parts in the first kit on this page suffice? Range Rover 2 Engine Service Kits at www.rimmerbros.co.uk

Whenever I take it to the garage where they have diagnostics, it is warm enough to start = no fault codes.

Still having this issue and have now replaced the Temperature sensor. The problem is getting worse - it now wont start if temp is under 12-15 degrees. Started this morning - just! and my phone said it was 17 deg. When it doesn't go, I can get it going by spraying Easy Start in through the...

Hi all Sorry - medium intelligence question... The steering ballpoint on my front right has just developed a squeak. Not bad from the cabin, fairly upsetting when lying underneath. Will get it addressed asap but I have a couple of questions... Is this sortable myself (medium DIY...

Yes I think that's it. Not sure I want to start undoing all of it to get at it I'll download rave 2000 and speak to my Indy who said he thinks it is 3 hours work!

Adam i think the engine in that diagram is GEMS

Thanks all I have serviced cars before so I know my way around an oil filter, I am aware that when you buy a service kit it comes with fuel filter so thought I should know how to do it properly. I will have a look at the engine this week to see if the diagram matches what I have Cheers

Hi all Couple of questions in response to encouragement on here to spanner myself. Firstly, I have downloaded RAVE for my car, a 99 4.0 Thor V8 and it is very useful. however, is there more of a novice service guide I can use? For example I want to carry out a full service inc changing the...

Wammers - What do you think? Coolant Temperature Sensor - Green - Genuine Land Rover at www.rimmerbros.co.uk

Sorry just reread the thread for location! is the parts name just ECU temperature sensor?

Makes sense. Im trying not to get too excited that this may be the cause of my problem. Where do I find it and do you know what the official name for it is so that I can look it up in RAVE? Thanks Wammers
