Check the following: FIRST, see if you're getting normal fuel pressure at the test point on the fuel rail when the ignition key is on. If you are getting fuel pressure when the vehicle is not starting, you have an ignition problem, probably the ECU.
If you are not getting normal fuel pressure at the test point, check the following.

  1. Inertia switch (not sure where it is on your vehicle but it's often in the driver-side kick panel in British vehicles. It may be in the cargo compartment behind the wheel well);
  2. Fuel pump relay (most likely culprit). It may be overheating and failing;
  3. Is the fuel pump making more noise than it used to? Change the fuel pickup strainer ("fuel sock") in the gas tank. It may be making the fuel pump overheat and shut down.
  4. Fuel pump. Again, this may be an overheating failure, especially if your fuel pickup strainer is clogged.
  5. IMPORTANT: As a matter of maintenance, since the vehicle is 14 years old, go ahead and replace the fuel filter and the fuel pressure regulator(s). This will solve many problems in the future.

SOURCE: range rover 2003 transfer in neutral help please

hi, this is a long shot so dont give me negative if no joy.
on the p38 they suffer from a bad electronic selector.
now, i do not have a clue what gear box or transfer you have.
any way if you look at your transfer, beside where the prop comes out, is ther like a window wiper motor with 6 wires.
if so they get stuck, rust or dirt etc.
have you checked your fuses, alos i would add. again not sure on your model.
in the fuse box there is a blank fuse, when inserted it shifts it to neutral.
the dealers wont tell you where it is.
have you put any fuses in etc, i did this 5 year ago, a p38 was jump started, leads wrong way.
i got a call as the aa did not want to help anymore. aa had a hand full of fuses out, i stuck in were contacts were. after new ecu had no drive.
you are sure its not a gearbox fault, get back to me if not sure, i can tell you how to test this.

SOURCE: My P38 Range Rover wont start

Hi Adam,

Bring your vehicle to an auto parts or battery store. Ask if they could perform a 'Load Check' on your battery. This not only checks the voltage, but also the amps, as if it were under the load of turning your engine.

It takes a few seconds and the results are pass or fail. Fail means it's time for a new battery. Pass means we need to look elsewhere.

Comment back the results.

Hope you find this to be very helpful
Mike

A lot can be told by the length of time you have been experiencing this problem. I'll assume it's been a couple weeks and guess that the first place to start troubleshooting is the fuel tank. More specifically the in tank fuel pump. Could be a classic "I'm about to drop dead so give me some attention" warning signs that all Rover owners come to know and love.
A pricey repair bill if hired out, dirt cheap if you do it yourself. Let me know if you would like help with the dirt cheap route.
Good luck!

2000 land rover hse fuel door wont open with switch on dash

If the door isnt damaged or otherwise stuck check your manual and refer to the "under-seat fuse panel" diagram. It is an electric switch hence it does have a fuse. Good luck!

2003 Range Rover HSE shut off while going down the road. The battery light came on about 30 miles before.

Your alternator has went out. The engine shut off because it drained the battery and had no power left to run it.

Range Rover 4.6 HSE. 97' 1. What does HSE

The HSE designation refers to a Sport Edition 'Rover, not a higher-priced premium edition.
Changing fuel grades can harm an engine that doesn't have computer controlled valve timing.
Symptoms include a pronounced, fast "knock" (usually when you go from 93 to 87 octane) and using a fuel with a higher octane rating than the vehicle requires (example: 93 versus 87) sends unburned fuel into the emissions system and catalytic converter. This puts stress on the emissions system. For some vehicles, a rotten egg smell or a pop when the fuel burns off in the catalytic converter coming from the tailpipe signals use of higher than needed octane gas.
