Heyup!!!!

I had a nakered uj that gave off very similar symptoms to yours, I was in cornwall driving up those lovely steep hills!! It sounded horrendous more under load, at the time i thought it was more gearbox problems, when i was there i checked the oil in both boxes but it was fine cudn't see anything...

Looks like someone'll be walking to work next time then!;)

Hi mate, welcome and hope you enjoy it on ere

Well i wudn't trust the couriers they use there blumin useless, I ordered some bits took a fortnight to get to me, after promises of receiving it the next day every day for the second week, I got them to deliver it to my work instead of home address and it turned up when they said it would. The...

Welcome, Well you'll certainly have fun ere!!!

Welcome, hope you have fun, Yeah that's the problem with Landrovers;)

I've read somewhere recently, can't remember if it was on here or somewhere else, that you get 2500L of veg oil or bio, tax and road duty free per year! The law changed to that last year aparently.

It sounds like you've just got play in your steering, on top of the steering box there's a grub screw with a lock nut. Jack the front end up get someone to turn the steering wheel lock to lock, slacken locknut and wind the grub screw in, but only bout 1/8 turn, then tighten locknut and test and...

Cheers Red have seen him around, was after the bearing number to source it elsewhere. Cheers mate, exactly what i was after

No, it's put a penny piece under the tensioner assembly apparently. What kind of people do you think we are?!!!!!!:D

I don't supose anyone knows the bearing size, for the serpentine belt tensioner on 300tdi? Thanks

Yeah i might be interested, Can you pm me with details, where exactly you are etc...

Definitely a disco, but your bound to get a more biased opinion in this section. depends on what you want to do with the vehicle, if your thinking bout green lanin then i'd look more at the disco.

Yeah definately a scam, a bloke i work with has had bout three of those, all for different items!! One of em, he was selling a phone on ebay, they racked the bidding up to summat stupid like £500, then when they won it, it was very similar to yours!! So of course had to readvertise it, there a...

Cheers mate, that puts abit more confidence in it. Been and picked one up today, so hopefully i'll fit it later. But seeing as it's a Landy summat's bound to go wrong!!!;)

Ye trouble is i think it's completely nakered cuz it's making this tapping noise, so I reckon i'll be looking at a complete replacement if that is the case. but thanks anyway

Hi, Well i mini serviced my landy yesterday, started it up and it seemed to be ok then it started to make a tapping sort of noise, i thought it was the lift pump, came on here and saw a couple of posts from Trewy saying that the vacuum pump makes that sort of noise. Went back out and used a...

I've just worked mine out, i did bout 100 miles on motorway, bout 150 on country lanes and bout 200 on mainly dual carriageway's (30 miles round trip for work each day for bout week 1/2) mines 300tdi manual.

Cheers mate, it's starting to feel like i'm getting my head round it now! wahoooo!
