    Gas-milage issue: Crank shaft sensor on 1996 P38?

    Hey, thank you bunches for super-fast reply! Really appreciated! Any insight on the "whole raft of tests" besides spraying a whole can of flammables around the intake (sounds fun, though).

    Gas-milage issue: Crank shaft sensor on 1996 P38?

    I need help on how to replace or clean crankshaft sensor on a P38 from 1996. Anyone? Weak power and gas milage going through the roof. Idles terrible, not like a V8. Pulling a trailer (less than one ton) on the freeway at around 100km/h burns around 30l on 100km. That translates to less than...

    funky blinker outage electric issue P38

    I'm not an expert on the P38, I wouldn't ask for help here. Thanks for your information, but I'm disagreeing to your point. The hitch is an aftermarket product, including the entire wiring. There's got to be a reason that this control unit was installed. E.g. wow can the BECM recognize a broken...

    funky blinker outage electric issue P38

    OK, problem isolated: The electric for the hitch has an own aftermarket control unit (black box) to control the lights of the trailer. That unit is blown because of water entering into the (other) left side's rear light compartment. I googled for AC UN-09 Flash-Control 12V 10R-02 1573.01 but no...

    Damn, my battery apparently went bad AGAIN. Bought it not even a year ago, 110Ah Varta branded battery. After a full charge leaving the car lights on for about 4-5 minutes I could see slowly brightness dimming down and car barely started. Time for a new battery I guess. Another funky...

    funky blinker outage electric issue P38

    Symptoms of a broken bulb, which isn't broken: Relay is switching at double speed and display in cockpit reads something like "broken rear blinker right side" (or whatever that translates to, since messages are localized). Front and side blinkers at door are switching at normal speed. I've...

    Electronic problem stalling P38, troubleshoot question

    Yes, I figured this out in parallel last night and tried charging overnight and yes you were 100% right!!! :) Since the battery is only one year old and a Varta quality battery the question is: Why does it drain so much power when it's parked? It got flat in less than a week.

    Electronic problem stalling P38, troubleshoot question

    Hi, my 96 RangeRover 4.6 P38 gave up on me. Doesn't start anymore and plenty of error messages are in the display: Gearbox broken, airbag broken, ... Very unlikely that all those components are dead after parking the car for 5 days. I disconnected and reconnected the battery for a few...

    Wiring: P38 Seat heater AC control unit bypass

    Button is mechanically broken. Light above button doesn't come on. Thanks for the URL, I found Heated Seat Repair on Range Rover 4.0/4.6 However, it doesn't explain which wires to be shortwired to bypass the button. You know which cables? Thanks!!!

    Wiring: P38 Seat heater AC control unit bypass

    The driver seat heater button of my 96 RangeRover doesn't work anymore. Is there an easy way to install a switch next to the driver seat to bypass? A new A/C control unit is to expensive to replace. Thanks for any help! Dirk
