Thanks indeed for that offer and I might well take you up on it . In actual fact I had another good samaritan contact me saying he had a code reader (although not sure he means a land rover one ) and if I care to go over to him he would have a look. As he is only about 30 mins away I shall be going to see him this afternoon but I am not holding my breath as yet. I am near North Walsham but I would not expect you to come here and I would be more than willing to travel to you if need be. I shall let you know how I get on.....thanks again

 

I looked online and I'm a little more than an hour away from you. If the other guy can't help you, let me know and then we can work out possibly meeting at a half way point.

 

Please don't forget to post the codes here and ask the person to reset them. Once we have the codes it will be a lot easier to help you diagnose and potentially repair yourself.

 

Juke179r, Thanks for that and I will keep you informed either way

 

Friday Night Disco, I will indeed

 

 

Just returned from meeting this very helpful guy and he found the following 134 Shuttle Valve Switch (Electrical Fault ) He cleared it for me and refused any recompense ...amazing. But now I suppose I have to rectify.

 

 

Hi Bert

IMHO you need to download a copy of the D2 RAVE Workshop Manual from this forum site. It tells you all you'll ever need to know about the D2 engine and ancillaries and is easy reading. If you can buy a new or used OBD2 diagnostic tool (Hawkeye, Nanocom or Britpart Lynx) all the better. The 3 Amigos is a common diag: fault amongst many others. It doesn't create too many problems apart from no ABS, Hill descent or Traction control otherwise it doesn't affect you using the D2 apart from the MOT which under the new regs (I believe) will require the ABS to be fixed.
