    P38A Nanocom near Lanarkshire?

    sorry just spotted this as have been otherwise engaged for a while and hiding from the huge list of jobs I need to do on my car, but I have a nanocom and I’m in Glasgow. It’s set up for Gems but it might be able to help with your key issues if you still have them

    P38A New P38 EAS

    Hi, sorry to jump on the thread -I’m having similar trials with my EAS so replacing a reported faulty rear sensor and re-built my valve block. Just wanted to check where these potentially corroded white connectors might be in the passenger area -are they under the carpet ? Thanks Bob

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    Rebuilt my EAS Valve block, some of those o-rings were hard and brittle and the diaphragm torn. Just need to change the height sensor and recalibrate (and do the other 25+ outstanding jobs !

    P38A Vibration through Steering wheel

    Thanks…. the RR height sensor resolutely reports a value of 29 whatever height the suspension is actually at -the others seem much closer to target. I’ll check and clean the connection, I think I may have a replacement I can swap out -auk though I suppose that calls for recallibration ? -I’ve a...

    P38A Vibration through Steering wheel

    Hi again, Sorry but I need to tap into your experience again as the jobs I have to do on the P38 mount up and up. after some ankle surgery, I’ve been using the RR as my daily driver and she’s just started to develop distinct vibration which I can feel through the steering wheel. It seems...

    P38A Soggy, Mouldy, Leaky P38

    Thanks… I’m still really not sure what I should be doing and Rave isn’t much clearer imho ! I think I have 3 areas of concern: boot seal -clearly not fitting Sunroof -not flush -high at front, low at rear, possible seals / adjustment / drains heater matrix -leaky o-rings drivers footwell...

    P38A Soggy, Mouldy, Leaky P38

    Ah, copy and paste worked (I used to just use the ‘upload a file’ button but that’s stopped working. you can see on the pics where the blooming desk won’t stay on, it’s far from Snug :(. I’m still super confused about what bit of the metalwork is supposed to be bent -is there a flange behind...

    I must be being dense... the seal is failing / falling off at the join of the upper and lower tailgate but the metal is already flat... what should I do ? I can't seem to insert the photos

    P38A Soggy, Mouldy, Leaky P38

    Do you bend it up to create an ‘L’ like profile or bend it out to flatten it ? Sorry if that sounds really dense, I’m assuming up to create a channel for the water to run round

    P38A Soggy, Mouldy, Leaky P38

    Thanks I’ll have a look once I’m back in my feet (just had ankle surgery so out of action for a bit) I’ve done the pollen filters and they’re good now, the heater matrix is leaking and I have the replacement o-rings to fit. will investigate the sunroof drains. I don’t suppose there’s a...

    P38A Soggy, Mouldy, Leaky P38

    Arghhh… So i know that the P38 can be notoriously Moist but mine is leaking annoyingly and I’ve mould sprouting in the cabin, headlining, steering wheel and so on. I can deal with a lot but mould gives me the willies. Reading around, common failures are the boot seal and the sunroof. My boot...

    P38A Swivel Hub Alignment tool LRT-54-006

    Ah, well I replaced both front ABs sensors in the last year one was ok the other was totally stuck and had to be drilled out -the relictor ring was also in a bad way and ended up replacing the half shaft. I’m ‘hoping’ that because everything has been off the car recently, (other than the pesky...

    P38A Swivel Hub Alignment tool LRT-54-006

    Well I’ve made some progress; I’ve found a 3D printer file for the oil seal locating tool (LRT-54-012) have slightly modified this so that it can take a pvc pipe in the end. The plan then would be to print a disc the same diameter as the hub to check the alignment -although my printer is...

    P38A Swivel Hub Alignment tool LRT-54-006

    Thanks, I’ll check. I did see the home-made scaff tube and bearing thing which seems interesting -and I saw the pic of Wammers one. I have a pretty heavy-duty C-shaped press but the ball joints look like the may be original to the car -eek

    P38A Front hub removal

    thanks, that’s what I thought. I’m guessing that removing the hub nut would allow me to remove the hub, driveshafts, CV’s and so on individually if that’s what I needed (to change a wheel bearing or something) but that for this purpose it’s fine just to pull it out as a whole unit ?
