Use ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid)

You say its a 1982, now Im sure someone will correct me if Im wrong but did'nt the 110 start in 1983 and the 90 was introduced in 1984 ? so if its registered as 1982 90 then alarm bells should be ringing !

Kept a check over 1000 miles on a previous 2.5n/a that I had and it worked out at 29.26 mpg . It was running on 205 x 16 AT tyres and that was an equal mix of motorway, town and country roads. The ex army one that Im running now does 25mpg but is on very agressive rubber which accounts for the...

All of a sudden Im having problems selecting 3rd gear, its been a very good gearbox for a Landy, very smooth and easy to select all gears but yesterday I started having difficulty going from 2nd to 3rd, coming down from 4th to 3rd is still as smooth as its always been. Do any off you guys have...

Did you use the difflock when you where off road ? if so did you disengage it afterwards ? cos if you did'nt it would cause your wheels to skip.

It sounds like its a 2.5TD not the 200TDi / 300TDi if it is then it is normal for it to run out of power on hills quickly and 70 mph for a 110 2.5TD sounds about right.

Perhaps they've realised there's a niche market now that the Suzuki Rhino's no more !

There's a very tidy looking 90 at a garage in Dunfermiline that I pass, its a basic van type T reg (1998-99 ) there asking £4995 its been there for a while so it should go for £4500 or there abouts.

Im afraid all Land Rovers leak even new ones, thats why all the farmers wear wellies !!!

All you need is some Blue Tac ! sit in the Landy when its raining heavy and stick a bit of Blue Tac on where ever you see a drip, it worked for me.

It would be better if you could test drive it before buy as they are a much more agricultural vehicle than your Landcruiser, might come as a bit of a culture shock !!

I had a similar thing many years ago in an old Sherpa camper that I had, it turned out to be a worn rotor arm, so 1 new rotor arm and cover later and I never had that problem again.

After owning several series and a 90" Land Rover my dream had always been to own a Discovery, and at last it happened ! I got a Discovery 2 TD5 GLS and what a disapointment ! while I could not fault it ( fantastic motorway cruiser ) and it was very comfortable, it just did not put a smile on my...

Glad to hear Landy is ok and that you are mobile.

What A pain in the ARSE some of these Insurance people are,they have probably decided " Ah Hah!! he'll be putting a big Spoiler on top of the hardtop next" would'nt mind but I'm pushing 60. BAR STEWARDS !!!!! Anyway thats my rant over so thanks for all your replies and I will get on the...

Rang up my insurance to let them know that I had changed my 90 from a rag top to a hard top with side windows and they said " sorry Sir we can no longer insure that vehicle " and that they would terminate my insurance 7 days from now !!! So got on to Insurance Supermarket on the internet and...

Forgot to ask, whats the penny trick ? I've never heard of that.

Strange that only one side of the belt was damaged and that you did not see any clouds of steam, could it be the bearing in the water pump has collapsed throwing the pulley out of alignment and damaging the seal allowing the coolant to leak slowly past it ? If your journey was not to long you...

Looks good for a grand, luckeeeee Bar Steward !!!!!!!!

Its worse than that someones nicked his Landy as well !!!
