Hi folks. What would stop both keys from not wanting to sync after a battery disconnect? Both previously working fine and previously synced via door method.

Cheers

Thanks all. I will have a practice with the broken one!

Thanks. I’ll try more gently then!

I’ve got the paper workshop manual so searching is a bit more difficult...

I can’t find it in rave, so can anyone explain to me how to remove the mirror glass from the wing mirrors and replace please? I just broke one giving it a tug (worked on previous vehicles lol)

Thanks

All academic now as my spare rad is for a Gems model!!!

£50 plus postage or collection if anyone wants it. Brand new in box, Bearmach.

Hmmm interesting. I do have a spare new rad, will it be ruined if this engine is toast though?

And, 4.6 V8.... none of that derv muck...

(ducks for cover)

Thanks as always (you must be on here all day!!!)

It runs nicely for the few mins I’ve had it going. No misfire and sounds lovely and quiet. No tapping or anything.

The seller mentioned he recalled a mechanic saying radiator core being blocked. Is that likely?!

Thanks again both.

Just got a set sitting around so thinking could put a set of A/Ts on ready for the winter...

Thanks all!

With the power of google (!) I’ve seen plenty of lye P38s with Mondials so don’t feel bad putting some on mine now.

Evening all...

On the 99 I bought as a non runner I’m trying to see if it’s worth putting a few bits right to see if I can get it running. However, it’s got yellow Mayo in the oil cap and spout and the radiator overflow union is broken off, so I’m thinking it might have been abandoned due to a head gasket failure. What’s the quickest route to find out? I don’t really want to put a new rad on if it’s going to burst it or something.

It does start and run but I’ve not had it going long as it starts overflowing after 5 mins.

So in other words, they would have been an optional extra on a 2000MY?

Hi all, does anyone know what model years Mondial rims were offered with?

I’ve not checked the bulbs are all there yet!!!

Rear wings are part of the shell but the others can be swapped.

Maybe quicker to swap the shell!

Or just leave it be and scavenge the odd part now and then.

Normal issues:

HVAC
Blend motors (2)
Pixels
Suspension air leaks
Accumulator
Heater matrix o rings
Boot button
Locks
Remote control
Water in spare wheel well

So far...

Anyone else got a second p38 for parts, just in case???

Got me a 4.6HSE in the same colour today spares or repairs. It’s almost good enough to put back on the road, but has all the normal issues!!!

The intention was to use it for parts for The Duchess!

Do all the body panels bolt on? It’s very straight whereas The Duchess is covered in scratches, holes from missing light guards/mud flaps etc etc......

The OBD power pin is directly from a 5A fuse in the fusebox, don't remember which, but there aren't many 5A there ...
Before I fixed the intermittent, and very bothering, electrical failure in that connector by the A-pillar, I ran a direct cable from the battery.

Simon, if you look at his sig, it's a '99 fitted with a Prins system. Hence my mention of the emulator unit.

Sorry, yes I missed that.

Agreed the Prins injector emulator unit is likely causing the running on petrol problem.

Also the Prins system won't be wired to the OBD port.

I think I have a 2000MY actually. It’s one of those ones that has a bit of 99 and a bit of 00!!

Where would I look for this Prins injector emulator and is there a way to eliminate it from enquiries?

Thanks. I’ll have a closer look tomorrow. Not sure how my lpg is wired in to be honest. Seems pretty well hidden!
