Intermittent loss of power P38 Diesel 1995 Hi all, Any ideas or help would be very much appreciated, on my much 1995 P38 Diesel. I have a intermittent loss of power, as like running out of fuel, suddenly your driving nicely a long and lose all power at the throttle peddle? Cars still ticks over, and if I wait a while some times it just comes back and all it well until the next time it goes, I have just change the throttle actuator on the throttle peddle at the cost of £250? As I thought it might be that, by after fitting it I had only driven about 15 miles and back came the fault, so I guess there goes £250 replacing a part that was ok? I wonder could it be the ECU. And if it is, could I just replace it for a second hand one? Or could it be the faulty pump? Not sure what make it is on mine but the throttle actuator was Bosch just wonder if any has the same thing happen to them or knows any else that has Many thanks Mike

Many thanks for your in-put I sepent loads on restoring my P38 and up grades, couldn't sell her so I guess I will just have to see if one of my local garages can have a look at her? there are a few around that do 4x4 landies, and to replace the car would most likey cost more then fixing her many thanks Mike \

Range Rover P38 Diesel Lost power at the peddle? Hi all I'm a new member and would like some help, Has anyone come across this problem? I have on a few occasions lost all power at the peddle? Engine ticks over OK but when you put your foot down to accelerate there is no power, and sometimes it just comes back, I can go a couple of weeks all being well and then it goes again? Also I have another fault that seems to be also intermittent now? The heater glow light on the dash wont come on, and when this happen the glow plug don't work making start the car nearly impossible just wonder if anyone else has come across this problem. I have been told with regards the accelerator it might be the actuator? Any ideas of advice would be appreciated many thanks
