    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Battery new, over 13v, checked EVERY fuse, swapped all the relays around assuming a dud will throw other problems, not so. Checked (by eye) all plugs/sockets, dis-connected battery, connected cables together to drain any residual voltage, operated all ign & other switches many times etc...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Hmmm, the 2 ton paperweight in my first posting may be a bit nearer. I thought everything was going too well, got the BeCM working, put coolant in & she fired straight up, goes back & forth, brakes work, ripped out the interior, washed everything, hoovered everywhere, centre console back in...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    OK, thanks for that, I bought new bags anyway, just in case! Following the previous postings, I have just left it for the first time with the battery connected, lets see what happens now after a day or so!! Refitted the carpets & seats today, so I can at last sit with my foot on the brake pedal...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Ooops, I forgot to mention, I run the car for only a couple of minutes now & again just to check things as I go along, and I actually dis-connect the battery every time, it therefor sits there 'dead' as it were & I assume self-levelling etc. cannot happen, which is why I suspect the valve block...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Another question for you clever guys, as I mentioned, I have fully rebuilt the air compressor & all 'o' rings etc in the valve block, the car goes up & down ok. After a day or so it settles down from 'high' to about 'normal', BUT, it equal across the axles, the rear settling a bit more than the...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    I ALMOST committed myself to cutting the front carpet to remove & gain access to the footwell damage, but realised that the very rearmost part would need cutting & that is seen under the centre console. So, I cut a piece of timber about 14" long & somehow managed to lift the heavy & stiff carpet...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Little update, rebuilt the compressor, then just fully rebuilt the valve-block as well, temporarily hooked up the electrics, fired her up, the compressor burst into life, & it must have taken a couple of minutes to press up the tank, then up she came, arse end first, then the front, i'll leave...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    A bit stumped today, need to remove the front carpet to attend to the 'propshaft-hole' & sort the damaged adjacent heater duct on the tunnel, but even though the centre console is off, along with HEVAC, radio, air-sus panel etc. I just cant seem to get the carpet out!! There's a video on Youtube...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    I'll not be looking at the modulation for some time yet since everything's stripped out inside, so, thought I'd have a looksee at the pollen-filters, bit of a job hauling them out, seemed to be 'stuck' , this is what came out of EACH side!! What sort of 'pollen' is that then.:oops:

    Many thanks to everyone for the info, so this 'modulation' thing, is it a physical adjustment on the pump, or via the diagnostics??

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Ah, OK, that might be a few weeks/months away yet, I've only had it running for 30 seconds or so, all the insides are removed at the moment!

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    OK, ill go for that, how does one 'reset the modulation' then??? Can a muppet like me do it at home, I do have the old original Rovacom.

    P38A Rear Drivers Door Removal

    I recently had 2 similar occurrences, 1, passenger door totally locked out, as yours, wound window down & managed to pry off the top, inner rubber molding from the top of the door card, this allowed me to 'look' down to check the cables, rods etc. ALL was perfect, but nothing unlocked...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Is the coolant sensor under the inlet, behind the pump then? If so how would it work, shorting the sensor closed, thus telling the ecu its cold?? If so again, is it a good 'fix' ??

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    I don't think there's a corrosion problem as all the windows, locks, etc. work fine, what I'm asking is if there should be continuity from the speaker plugs directly to the radio plugs? Just pulled the binnacle & replaced all the bulbs, all the displays seem to work fine now. There is a...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Since all the dash/centre console is in a zillion bits, I thought id try & suss out the radio/speaker setup. ALL the previous hi-power amp/speakers/crossovers & tons of wiring are now completely removed & I am left with what I hope is the original wiring & plugs etc. Sourced original RR door...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    I can confirm that the black 'gooey' stuff on the dash centre plastics are indeed painted, using paint-thinner, I managed to completely remove it all & have already re-sprayed a few bits satin black, they will look a whole bunch better than when I got it!! As you can see, mine are grey...

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    There's a pair of mini mics up on the mirror, the 'thing' on the windscreen is actually part of the tax-disc holder so it may be an antenna of some sort.

    2.5 ton paperweight??

    Had 4 new tyres fitted yesterday, got real fed up inflating them every day!! The old ones were 2014 & cracked all over sidewalls & even everywhere between the tread, shame really as they all 7-8mm tread depth.:( Already beginning to look better, even though it doesn't 'go' yet!!! Started to...
