G,day, Is there a manual available that would cover a 98 model 4.6 HSE ?
Haynes dont have one.
We have the Rave cd but would like to have a book !!

Yes, LR make one. Print the pages from RAVE as needed, it would be cheaper.

Ron, if I end up with this vehicle, which I think I would like to own, I
would buy that expensive manual.
All the information you have on hand would have to be a good thing I
believe.
I will wait and see.

I dont want to take over the maintenance while it still belongs to Bro
but I would like to be able to help with correct advice etc.

I'm thinking this Rangy would be good to do our next trip to the Cape in,
towing a camper.
Thats why I am interested in what Paul38 has done to his 99 model with
regard to lifts and bar work, which I didn't think was available for our models.

Are you allowed to smoke inside the Spruce Goose ?:D

Enjoy the trip.

Robert,
I have a RR manual, but live in Romsey Victoria.

As Ron said Exxy. Mine was purchased from British Car Parts in Melbourne... $295 inc gst

Cheers

Jeff
PS I recon the RAVE disc is just as good. (I have one of those as well).

I purchased Workshop Manuals 1 and 2, part number LRL0326ENG printed in 1999, at AutoWorld Bookshop in Sydney in 2006/07 for about $250, but use the RAVE CD almost exclusively these days.

If you do procure your Bro's P38A, I may be willing to part with these for a small fee (hint: I like red wine) ;)

AndyThe electronic version is already available on GTR.
I would be surprised if there wasn't a copy floating around on the interwebby thing.

NFI what GTR is, but the copy of RAVE I have has Owners Manuals for 98MY through 02MY P38A Rangies, although they are the NAS ones.

Hi Andy, the owner's manual is reproduced in the RAVE manual.

My RAVE has the Australian Owner's Handbook.

Is that the same RAVE we can buy from this site? If so, I'll get one.
