The rsw software is brilliant once you master it, are sure your choosing the correct comms port, on all your pics you have no idle, which means there no talking to each other, as said, get the programme up and running before you connect to the OBD socket, if you pick the wrong comms port from experience I found that I had to reboot the programme as well !,, once you grasp it your love it,, easy to use even for people like me who know sweet fanny Adams about computer programmes etc

Is the eas switch lighting up ?

Talking about tyres I'm glad that now tyres 10year old (manufacturing date) are illegal 🤗 why anyone would use/trust tyres that old amazes me

But people still complain when 20 year old air springs start to leak and they are made of exactly the same stuff.......

That comment did make me laugh,, ive bought some cars where the bags are thread bare, and they expect them to work,, funnily enough when I bought the dse a while back, left rear was more material than rubber, but to get it off the lorry I rebooted the eas and it lifted

Thanks Chris but I've already got a complete wheel with all the buttons that was given to me, and the wiring is all there, but I want to keep my original, well worn, plain, non-leather wheel. That, like the big spraystopper mudflaps, are part of the cars character and history. My works Kangoo had a small rocker for volume up and down on the right side behind the wheel and I want to recreate that, index finger for up and 2nd finger for down.

Can’t you just put the buttons on your wheel ? I nearly fell over last night, eBay, set of buttons and ribbon £185 there having a laugh

If you got a wheel with buttons, is the wiring not there ? Standard black wheels the last time I bought one were £20,,
Jeez, just had a look , cheapest £37 delivered, won’t swear to it, but might have one, I’ll have a look later today,, if I’ve got your welcome to it

You'll get a lot more in there that that. I've got the main bit full of LPG tank but in the space next to it where the polystyrene thing would have gone originally I've got some lengths of assorted sizes of heater hose, a set of spark plugs, a bag of assorted sized nuts and bolts, a set of ignition coils with leads, a bag containing the EAS emergency kit (Schrader valves, pipe joiners and lengths of pipe), a bag of assorted size jubilee clips, a spare serpentine belt, a starter motor, an alternator, a brake accumulator, my warning triangle, two tow ropes and a pair of heavy duty gloves.

And they say these cars aren’t reliable! Tosh!!

Richard does lots of long journeys with a trailer in tow,,

I’m just thinking back to when mine was working, I was averaging 14-17mpg on gas, and I’ve got a heavy right foot

I’ve still got a full tank after 18 months of my lpg giving up, lol,, done lots of miles using liquid gold

Wow ..... a heat gun? Sounds risky.

Not as risky as the guy on Facebook using a blow torch to undo fuel lines 🤣

And then we're back to Chris' advice ... leave it well alone! I'll know 'next time'..

Something my dad always said, if it works, leave it alone, lol, would be interesting to have one of the frames apart though, luckily I’ve no problems with mine, so it won’t be coming out 😂🤣

Self levelling suspension, have you swapped relays to a 4 pin,,, although it’s going to sleep, are you sure nothing is waking the becm up ?

I waved my wife off in the Range Rover today - she actually chose it over her Golf for the School run. Incredible!

You know why, the heater in a p38 takes seconds to warm up, I’m hating using her indoors car while I sort rangie out,, 🤣

Welcome back hoppy, sounds like you’ve been through the mill with that bloody virus, glad your up and about, just don’t go over doing things ( bet I sound like the missus ) ,, I hear those words every day, lmao,, you take care mate.

To be honest, not something I would of tackled, if it was sealed I would of left well alone, I understand tackling rust etc, but I’ve never had any problems with sunroofs on any of the landrovers I’ve owned,, bring back the webasto type, lol

Hi tried loads of different ways. Unfortunately I only have acces to an iPad and an iPhone just now. I’ll try again when I’m at a desktop cheers Alan

I’m the same, I did it once but don’t have a clue how

I'd think (but it is a bit of a guess) that you want to press and hold on the link to get a menu to appear, and should be able to select copy from there. Chris might be the better person to say as I'd suspect its similar to doing it on an iPad.

Not me, I managed it once and don’t know how I did it, 😂🤣

Radius arm bushes, heater o rings, change all fluids

Passed yesterday!

👍👍👍

Don’t just swap one wire, otherwise when you power down you will lose any memory, swap both over,, use a meter to test it’s the correct ones, one will be permanently live, the other when ignition is on

I try not to use britpart, but some things you can’t get any other way, from what I’ve noticed over the years is keep away from anything electrical, I think my bump stops might be BP, I changed them about 4 yrs ago, cash was a bit tight and went for cheap option on island, no problems with them, but let’s be honest, none of us want to be on the bumps no matter the make 🤣
