New ABS sensors fitted to the old beast to cure an ABS fault.

What a farce..

Was fun though!

Hmm seems the old Range rovers valley gasket has shit the bed, a small puddle in work carpark was the telltale..

Coolant seems to be running off the Trans cooler lines and bell housing..

looks like a simple enough job, bloody Gas kit which profess autogas did a very neat "not" job of installing and their haphazard wiring is going to be fun...

Looks like valley to me.

Any ideas?

Cheers

MOT done and passed

1.90 for diesel.

MOT booked for friday hopefully it passes.

On LPG it has become quite economical when considering the petrol price hike..

53ppl vs 1.67ppl no brainer!

Chassis removal is actually very easy for the P38, infact because the nuts are captive in the body you don't need 3 arms unlike with the D2.

That's a very interesting possibility. Not a DIY job though. I wonder how much it would cost to have someone do it for you?

I'd expect over £3000 for the job..

Hiya gents, I have an issue with the roof trim pieces, the two black strips that run parallel down the roof..

I've removed mine and unfortunately ruined a few of the clips!!

These.

Any idea if they're still available?

Thanks Gents.

Changed the Oil..

Runs good on the stuff, easily the quietest it has ever been..

I've fitted it to another car to rule that out, still nothing..

And it drops to 9v when cranking

Nowt has been done to them.

It has never been discharged, and has always been above 12.5v

Fine until a few days ago, when it refused to start the car, still reading over 12v weirdly.

I need one!

I've gone through two Mf31-1000s in two cars, so not happy with them..

Anyone else got a recommendation on one that will fit?

Thanks

H

as I said it dropped off, specifically it went down quickly to 12.4v..

Might be below now..

Dead battery tonight, very convenient!!!!

Well it was near dead after 4 days of sitting, the engine barely turned over.

So hooked my jump pack on it and off she went..

Did around 55mi round trip and came home, upon hooking the multimeter to her it seems she is running at 14.11 which is good even with the headlights on

However after turning her off it dropped from 14.11 straight to 12.6 volts, and it started to drop quick quite quickly..

I would assume there would of been some kind of surface charge on the battery after a run, which it didn't seem to show...

Hankook MF31-1000 only a year old!!!

Grr

After leaving her for a 2 minutes she went to sleep so nothing is keeping her awake...

Mine does that funny EAS jiggle when parked..

The valveblock on mine i know doesn't leak, it must be height sensor related I think.

Gave the underside a good coating of underseal..

I dunno what the fook they spread on the roads over here but my stainless exhaust while not rusty is tarnished with fuck knows what..

Shame..

No clicking it is completely dead, however shutting the key off and retrying and she's up and running!

Some people I've read say it could be the fuse box, however what difference would turning the key on/off do to a faulty fuse box?

Or something more sinister?

Recently the old girl has taken to not spinning the starter motor on the first turn of the key, however shutting the key off and trying again gets her to start..

It isn't happening every time but it's an annoyance!

Cheers gents,

Probably for the best I pay £340 a year for my P38 and only do around 4000mi per year in it..

Thanks both!

I'm assuming there are a few electrical connectors to remove.

The steering shaft and gearbox linkages?
