they basically telling you to fit a hot box to the p38 it fools the timing ot the ecu that the engine is cold even though engine is hot thus keeping the glow plug cycle running on every time the engine is turned over
hope this helps
next time before you start open the bonnet and have look at the clear pipe from filter to the pump get someone to turn the key while you cheack I had a leaking injection pump on mine and was a pig to start took a good 20-30 seconds of turning over to start

If it’s a Range Rover Sport it’ll be an L320, if it’s a full size Range Rover it’ll be an L322.
Both very different cars as the Sport is basically a Discovery whereas the L322 is unique to itself.
Does your car have a split tailgate like the P38?
it's the L320 sports model with the split tailgate

Richard tou hit the nail on the head I believe when you take a trailer test it should teach weight distribution and the test should be done with a loaded trailer
when I did my class 2 hgv test it was in a empty 12t box lorry luckily I had driven loads before so knew abit more about pulling away and breaking distance would be greatly affected
I agree with all of you about the new law for towing trailers it's mad
I passed my test in 98 so missed out on licence B+E
I've got my class 2 HGV licence (drive up to 32tonne)
done my tractor test to so at work I could drive and pull trailer I did forestry work so at age of 18 I was driving a fast track JCB pulling a trailer full of timber round but couldn't pull a trailer on my car licence so I think I've got a bit of experience pulling trailers.
now the law has changed I can pull a trailer.
but I scares me to think my work colleague who passed his test in 2010 can now by law pull or work trailer with a 3tonne mini digger on with out any training
welcome to the forum mate
thanks guys if it dies like that again I will take the battery off nextime it only done it this once it not made that noise on any car I'll start it in a bit hopefully nothing has been fried
sounded like it was more from door latch
the stereo is disconnected I took it out totally
it stopped buzzing after a couple of minutes it first time I've heard it do that noise as the battery is totally dead
would anyone know why my diesel p38 is making this noise when on charge
when I lock it up all the door locks buzz and only passenger one when unlocked is it a sign the door lock acculator is on its way out

this is the state of one of the seats that need cleaning
the seats came out of a off roader so bit grubby as you all can guess
thank you all once again for your help and advice will give them a go when the rain eases up
OK folks I've got some cream leather seats to drop in to my old girl they need bloody good clean I was thinking of using G101 a alkaline cleaner and a good leather cleaner after that to soften them up a bit
