not to much money to spend out then you got plenty of time for them to come

glad you got it sorted out and he knew what he was doing and he stayed to see if the heating elements work

thanks for the heads up I did think about the memory of the radio

thanks for your help

thanks for that so if I do the same put red to yellow it should only come on and off with the key

replacement on mine was fitted well obviously new sealant was used and they did give a key over so it adhered better as was still original window that was replaced afert it was smashed

I wish mine would develop a crack as it would be nice to have the heating elements work again!

have you checked the relays in the fuse box

thanks for that I will have a look later I rember doing a wire swap on old car before I think I swapped the red and yellow wires around so yellow to red and vice vicer

hi I've fitted a after market Bluetooth stereo to my 2000 2.5td p38 when you turn the key on to start the radio turns on but don't power down when turned off you have to power down manually
when I fitted the radio I used a wire block connector so didn't have to cut and join no wires on the range rover I was just wondering if anyone knows how to set it so when turn key off the radio turns off as it was on the other day and has made battery drain flat

I'm going to leave it until Monday before booking it so if the crack spreads it isn't really that important, it's not like it's going to fall out. I may well have a 200 mile journey to do on Sunday morning anyway so it won't surprise me if I've got a two piece screen by then. There's a £100 excess on the insurance so it's going to cost me that for a £500+ screen. Wiper blades were new Bosch ones not that long ago but since fitting them I spent a week near the Baltic Sea and they suffered a bit from airborne sand so could do with replacing again anyway.

I'm more concerned about getting it fitted properly than anything else.

100 quid is about right I paid 75 excess on mine for new screen with autoglass
did look at getting screen my self but like you said it was 500+

Don't know who will do the job, I have to phone the insurance company and it is arranged through them. I'm going to insist on a like for like replacement so as it has a Pilkington heated screen in it at the moment, that's what I expect it to be replaced with. I've seen some of the bad experiences others have had when screens have been replaced so will keep an eye on how it is done. I had two screens fitted at home on my works van. The guy that did the first one was really chatty, knew what he was doing and was quite happy with me being there while he did it. The second guy didn't want me there and did a really crap job.....

auto glass did mine it a two man job they should supply new trims and clips for the bottom scuttle as they can break and get some new screws for the scuttle as the old ones can be rusty
and last but not least the two earth wires fixing can snap off

do you mind if I ask who would replace the windscreen be careful if it auto glass as had few issues with them when done mine

quite a few people have said Britpart are getting better

got EGR delete on my 2000 p38 when I brought it and it passes mot and emissions no problems
I asked the mot tester about it he said as long as it passes emissions test then no problems

the bloke who doing it use to work for a fuel pump recon company so hopefully he will know what he doing 😉I'll let him deal with it thats why I'm getting some one cause if it do Go wrong I'll have some warranty with it

sports mode changes the time the gears change

When accelerating in ’Sport’ mode, gear changing is delayed to make optimum use of the engine’s power. Select when increased acceleration is required, or when negotiating long inclines or twisting roads. However, you should be aware that driving in ’Sport’ mode will increase fuel consumption.

To select ’Sport’ mode, press the ’Mode’switch once whilst the gearbox is in High range (the message centre will display ’S’ along with the selected gear, eg.’S3’).

just a quick update I've got the old booked in on Saturday to have some one look at the pump for me
