    new cylinder heads , what does THIS mean???

    I bought a turners performance head last month, you won't regret spending the money. It has transformed the old girl, I have also just had a Griffin stainless exhaust system on as well, is so much more fun to drive now!😁😁😁

    300 tdi running temp? Is it hot?

    I had similar symptoms and it turned out to be the pump, for the sake of a few quid and an afternoon tinkering it may be worth replacing it

    Nottingham, Mansfield. Landry engine specialist.

    I rate Turner Engineering, I've not had one of their engines yet but I did fit one of their performance heads and can't fault it. My engine has done 217000 so I may need on in the not too distant future. I'm no expert but have you considered a problem with the head gasket or head?

    Dead Keyfob blues

    I had a similar problem. My alarm/immobiliser hasn't worked correctly for a few months then it decided to start arming itself like it should but when I inserted the key it wouldn't auto disarm as it should do. I only found this out at 05:30 in the morning trying to get to work! (sorry to all my...

    Fuel consumption Poll

    Mine has got 162000 on the clock, doing 55-60 on my 60 mile drive to work. Last week I got 37mpg! The reason I am shocked is because it's a 300Tdi 110 with full length roofrack and AT tyres!

    Hankering after a Defender

    I have just recorded 37MPG!!!! I was running diesel/LPG/2stroke! I saw a post on here about pitting 2stroke in your tank and gave it a try. I was gob smacked! I worked out the total cost off all the fuel/oil and divided it by the cost of diesel to work out the equivalent MPG. I have had my...

    Hankering after a Defender

    Think it was about £600ish but not really worth it unless your doing lots of miles (I'm on 120/day!). If your engine is in good condition and it's set up correctly it can make driving less of a hassle as you need less gear changes.

    surely not??

    Hi Karl, my blower went on the blink 3 months ago and it turned out to be the connector all **** up with sand and mud. I cleaned it up and applied a dab of silicon grease and it's worked fine since. PS. Got my pre heater plumbed in now, no more cold morning drives down to Cheshire!

    Hankering after a Defender

    I bought myself an ex MOD 110CSW 300Tdi last December and hit lucky my average mpg is 30 over the last 11 months (28000 miles) I have recently installed a gas conversion that has given me an extra 3-8 mpg at present, but I'm still tinkering with the setup. My next purchase will be a Roverdrive...

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    I fitted my rebuilt Warn winch, installed my homemade LPG manifold to my intercooller and then drove the 60 miles home with that extra boost that LPG gives you.

    leaky 300tdi

    In my limited experience it sounds like your low on water. The heater take off is at the top of the engine and is therefore the first to be starved. You need to do as I am doing and look for the route cause for the lack of water. Mine seems to run ok for a week then suddenly overheat. Water...

    whats the best defender engine ? poll

    300tdi gets my vote. I do 130 miles a day in mine and at present I an getting 33.5mpg! It has taken a couple of months of fettling to get it that good, but now it's running well. May look at a Roverdrive when cash-flow allows.

    Too much black smoke!!!

    I am having a similar problem so I decided to search the old posts. I found loads of help and am now in the process of fixing it!

    Is your Defender your main vehicle?

    I use my 300Tdi CSW every day. I'm thinking of opening my own refinery as I'm doing approximately 130 miles a day, I hope that my LPG kit will save me a bit of cash though!
