Had no idea you had 2, kept that up your sleeve! 🤭

Don’t worry, if you had a RR instead you’d still feel like burning it. Difference is we’d be able to give a lot more advice. I’m afraid the only thing in common with a RR is the badge so we here aren’t over familiar with the specific...

I add some new information, I try to make several test on this issue, now I can say that in 99% of case, when car is turned on after a long park, starting with the first gear is a nightmare, engine stai at 1000-1200 rmp and increase RPM at very...

Hiya, Thanks for trying. I'm in Manchester, UK. Did send Paddocks a message. Thought it might be something they would know - dealing internationally etc, but they just gave me a "don't know" response. An independent specialist nearby called...

Well, you happen to be in luck Ken, I have a fully working VCSI brick, that I may be persuaded to part with. How about that for a result from a fifteen year old thread !! Brian

Thanks guys, may be I need to recommission it before sale, but it has to wait as I got few things to sort first.

Doing the what? 😵

Think it the bloody chain feel like doing the latter

DVLA are a nightmare to deal with.

Did you see this on the bay in projects?

There is junk on the bay thats asking stupid (high) money by the time you have sorted missing panels you would never get money back. As for you link that’s had the desert dust eating away at the doors.

And it's a boshe fancy non ebay Chinese real one going to give all plugs a clean now with vontact cleaner

I'm coming down to sensor as on way back it started so I did science. Once it started I would stop take keys out leave it 5 seconds and start again. Done this a few times. I've even seemed to figure out how to replicate it every time. So I'm...

Haha fair shout 😅 I was deep in a Google rabbit hole and suddenly found a bunch of people asking the exact same thing I was struggling with, got excited, started typing… didn’t even notice I’d time-travelled back to 2011 Still, glad to see some...

And this week's resurrection award goes to...

I was in a similar position not too long ago, torn between the TD5 and the Puma. I ended up test driving both over a couple of days, including some long stretches on the motorway and a bit of rural backroad stuff. Honestly, both were great in...

I’ve got a Series 3 as well and ran into the same questions when looking for upgrades. A lot of Defender stuff can fit with a bit of tweaking, as folks already mentioned. I found this site that’s been pretty useful when figuring out...

What make of maf sensor have you put in

This is important and very sage advice. One of the big advantages of the defender is that you do not buy the perfect one you build the perfect one, whether you are doing that yourself or paying someone else. All you buy in the first instance is...

Another vote here for leaving it out. If you want to protect the floor of the back and double up as good sound proofing a sheet of stable matting does the trick and just leave the wheel boxes bare I am the same as marjon, bare front to back with...

Some holiday reading for you 😀 https://www.landyzone.co.uk/search/6596168/?q=Jerking&t=post&c%5Bchild_nodes%5D=1&c%5Bnodes%5D%5B0%5D=6&o=relevance

I think it's well over priced. Like most owners (me included) they have spent more than they will ever get back but think they can when they sell (not that i'm going to). A mate sold a clean/tidy TD5 110 recently for £10K. I think your estimate...

I’ll take a look when back off my holiday, she’s due a service so I’ll grease everything up and clean thoroughly at service

Are the individual sections of linkages moving smoothly without stickiness, you would need to disconnect them to test though

Quite possibly. My first test would be disconnect each sensor in turn to see if the fault is with an over sensitive sensor maybe.

I am beginning to look at another 110 as have a second child on the way, in the sprit of fairness after getting one for my son on the day he was born with a plan to rebuild in about 10 years time with him, I will need to do the same with this...
