In picture detail #4 is the spigot bush of the flywheel I ment to say before.

LOL Hi. I just came back from a Land Rover service. They could'nt listen to noise but could test my clutch. It seems all fine and according to their opinion the noise is coming from the bush in the middle of flyweel where the gearbox shaft is rotating. With rain, dirty and heavy use the bush...

Hi Mr Noisy, thanks again for your answer. I will wait and see what happens. I know that removing whole R-380 and transfer box is a long and expensive work. I will buy the complete Valeo clutch kit so that I am ready when the moment to replace the whole clutch will come. ;) I think I am...

Thanks for your suggestions, Mr Noisy. That's exactly what a friend who is working in a Land Rover service unfortunatly far away from me, told me after reading my post at Italian forum and listening to the recording of the noise I did with my pda Noise recording : WAV and MP3 Africaland...

Thank you for your answer Mr Noisy. You are right, the noise could be that one, but I am always very careful with the gearshift. I could run a deeper test with my car across the weekend: when I do a reverse moving backwords my car, the noise is coming, I can press the clutch and the noise is...

Hi all, I have a problem with my R380 gearbox, I think (the car has 83.000 Km). It is the fourth time in the last week that, when I am using reverse gear, I suddenly hear a noise like "ggrrooooooooooooooooooooooooo" coming from gearbox. It comes suddenly while parking for example and I release...

In Italy the Bearmach "Safari style" model (BA2123) is sold at £ 92.00 + £ 8.00 postage

I think a cheap imitation of Safari snorkel is made by Bearmach ... please have a look at their catalogue (page 12).

It is very nice snorkel, ed.poore, thanks. I was intentioned to purchase a Mantec Flexlite Plastic Jobby like yours but at the end I found a really cheap offer for the Mantec plastic traditional model.

Here I am ... the snorkel has an offset with the back of the roof of about +2 inches ...

Actually I chose the Mantec model since it has a flexible rubber section ... should I impact against a tree branch, I think the flexilble rubber section would prevent the snorkel to damage the wing (it is in aluminum and it is like paper) by absorbing the shock.

Please just call an official Land Rover dealer with your VIN and he will be able to give you exact colour of your car. The colour code should be also written in a silver lable under the bonnet. VIN is a serial number like this Identificazione veicoli Land Rover

Yes, that's true, Safari are probably best snorkels available in the market, even if they are very expensive. I will maybe plan to buy one in the future ...

Hi ed.poor, the Mantec model which is not higher than the roof you are referring too is the new Raised Air Intake for Defender 2.4, 300tdi and TD5 (1-DPFL) The model I bought is Raised Air Intake for Defender – Plastic (1-DPSV) instead ... I think it might be really higher than the...

I know m8 Hehe I think the model in the picture you have attached is for better use at Haway Islands anyway ... ca-catch the wave ! LOL
