Cheers - hopefully your panel gaps were better than mine 😂

Ok! Managed it. I unscrew the pulley beneath the 24 mm nut. Easy! An Allen key - one screw only. Then i could fix a 15 mm spanner on the nut behind the pulley with 24 mm nut. (I used a regular 15 degree angle spanner). I turned this until the...

Cool, interesting towbar angle 🤣 🤣

Hay you the grass isnt always browner. 🤣 🤣

Ive got a belfast/butler sink to fit, since all the new stuff will be copper I looked for a copper sink errr that will be a no no 400 sovs up a grand, so pulled the plug on that. 🤣 🤣

Now that I have “completed” my Defender 90 rebuild last year, and taken it trialing with the Scottish Land Rover Owners Club, as I intended. I have decided to continue the madness with a new project. Seduced by the sound of a rover V8 and fear...

It looks ok, not much to come off. Just don’t like the sound of the vac tool for the coolant. Never done it that way, I’m old school but sorting airlocks in cooling systems is not fun! So.. maybe it’s a positive way of doing it. We will see!

Day off? I guess well I was still a work... Started on the valved exhaust! Not the easiest thing to make ALOT of rolling under and checking, even though I was using the original midbox as a template. I know 90° bends arnt exactly ideal...

I hope Francis gets back and lets us know how he got on. Mistakes do happen. Sometime ago, my TD5 went in for a Service at a local and well respected garage. I told them it takes an age to show correct level on dipstick when toping up, so to put...

I did look for that on Ashcroft did not find it? Also checked the fiche there is a seal & mud shield there. Thnx

I seem to recall the lower glovebox comes out to reveal the screws holding the upper one, if one should fail, it would definitely be this one wouldn't it? :)

Thanks, I do have an inlet/exhaust manifold gasket, so will try replacing that, and see if that is the issue.

Hi do you still have these?

Not sure about this one 🤔

I would always start with the inlet/exhaust manifold gasket. Turbo leaks are certainly possible. The evidence would be black soot marks.

Mine has the manual, and the jack.

J’en ai marre de French teachers. Putains.

But who was Lorraine and where has she gone ?!?!

On the Discovery 2 it stores in its side

I've put no rad or hoses on. Everything on engine just nothing past fan

Today I got a fault code P2562 (generic) with Carly and I believe that it points to the vanes?

Gah! It’s all in French. I’ll have to dig back to my GCSEs to read that.

As promised for you ladies of landyzone. A signed photo of myself for Landyzone May issue.

Hi guys Apologies for the delay in responding I had to wait for the harness which I finally got installed not to difficult of a job! Unfortunately still the same issue, decided to wait 2 weeks to book myself into my local landrover specialist, I...

Hi I'm new and need some info. I brought a range rover 2.7 with crank gone,I sourced a engine and rebuilt over winter and now refitted with body on. I still haven't fitted rad etc just in case it needs to come back out. Its been primed for fuel...

I've been slowly working my way through maintenance jobs on my D1 300tdi, most recently, the exhaust/manifold was blowing, so I took the opportunity to fit a decat downpipe, all fitted fine, with no leaks. However, when checking, I notice I'm...

Hi all, I have a 2011 Freelander 2 which is showing similar issues as described by aarjarbh15. My Satnav, radio and Bluetooth phone all come on after starting but then randomly shut down and re start. This has been continuing for sometime (c. 3...

Hope not he got it wrong big time ☔⚡
