It will make [ ] this much difference. Only when your driving with some speed do you really work the intercooler. At such time the air flowing into the grille naturally will do the job. The viscous fan would probably have little impact on the air flow over the intercooler anyway. Its common...

The question comes from trawling the internet for the Defender gearbox torque rating. Only one I can find reckons on 375n/m. Thats 5 less than the R380. With the 2.4 putting out 360n/m compared to the TD5's 300n/m. TD5 margin 80n/m TDCI margin 15n/m That coupled with the fact the Ford unit...

Kind of Land Rover related.... What Van? - New Vans and Used Vans Specialist - Ford Transit — November 2007 It's an article on the 3.2ltr I5 TDCI Transit. Im curious to know what box its mated to. Unless I'm mistaken the engine has another 110n/m of torque compared to the 4 banger. Im pretty...

Purely in the rough stuff. I know the 90 is better, just not by how much.

Fair enough. Obviously ramp over and departure angle are slightly compromised too. Has anyoned owned both? Is it often a 110 gets stuck whilst a 90 blasts through, or is it only in the competition level stuff it matters?

FFS read the title. :rolleyes: I meant what are the differences between their abilities. Chur

Whats the difference? How big is it? Ta

:puke: Sorry mate those wheels are wrank! Is the car used for drugs? Or used in the transport of chavs? :D

The above is true. You have however, missed out on the fact that Defenders come (have for a number of years) with TC. They would of just gone up the hill too. IMHO there is nothing really wrong with Freelanders. They dont have the off road attributes of the other models, but thats not what...

I suppose it's what you want to ultimately achieve. To breathe life into a **** box (My 109V8) and continue to contend with ongoing gremlins, or start again and have a new car. ................... Edit: I suppose I just want somone to agree and tell me I'm not a complete mental for...

The reg rules here are quite a bit different to the SVA in the UK. My logic is a 2010 Defender is going to have a better residual than a 1986 rebuild. (Despite there being feck all difference in price and parts when all said and done.) Ill have to look into it, but IIRC you can register a...

Has anyone built a Defender from new parts? How does it stack up financially? Been plotting a rebuild, and figure in this case I would end up with a new landy with a few old bits. May as well just build what I want using the best bits from over the years. Chur

A wastegate should maintain the set pressure. A dump valve is a device that allows the excess boost that builds up between the compressor and throttle butterfly on a closed throttle to be dumped to atmosphere. The logic being that this reduces the pressure difference between either side of the...

I always thought it was something to do with the electronic throttle? It feels like a smoothing feature. When changing the angle of the throttle there is a delay in response. You can check to see if the engine is still making power by lifting off the throttle and a split second later depressing...

Ahh. Yer that is a very big claim. I thought from reading earlier posts it was a hyclone type thing. I get the impresiion the vortex exhaust would perform like any other sports exhaust. 100 extra miles sounds like crap though. Regards Chur

An update Just spoken to the Dealer, and they say they have had the issue in the past. They said that their cure was to reroute the breather to a higher place. Makes sense as there is little height change from the top of the tank, to its mount. Disappointing however that LR are sending cars...

Has anyone else had this issue after filling up? When I look under the car, the breather from the top of the tank terminates just above the chassis rail, near the suspension link. It has no check valve to stop fuel flowing out. Should it have one? I filled up and the fuel spoffed out the end...

Iv'e just been on their site, and I cant find anything that looks untoward? I'm confused. Perhaps the claims are a bit overblown, but it just looks like a free flowing system. Have they removed a product from their line up? Ta
