    Tdi 90 windscreen wiper problem

    That’s what the mechanic suggested too, but it would still involve removing the dash which is the time consuming bit.

    Tdi 90 windscreen wiper problem

    Took the car into Highland Motors in Borve who advised the problem was a worn ‘worm’ - which drives the wipers. Motor was fine. Replacement is straightforward but involves removal of the dash and will take 4 - 5 hours. No garage on Skye is able to do a job of this size by Saturday when we leave...

    Tdi 90 windscreen wiper problem

    Ok thanks. Either sounds likely - I’m hoping it’s a relay.

Not tried using my phone on Bluetooth through it yet but I imagine I’d get the same problem. Sounds like the device itself could be faulty.

    Tracker radio interference

    Hi, I had a tracker fitted to my Defender 90 (63 plate) yesterday and now I'm getting a lot of radio interference whenever the radio/CD unit is switched on - to the extent it's not worth listening to now. I had a tracker fitted some years ago to another 90 (09 plate) and this very occasionally...

    Tracker radio interference

    Hi, I'm from the Peak District and have a Defender 90. People occasionally come around wearing balaclavas in the middle of the night trying to steal it. The last time this happened a couple of weeks ago I wasn't in so they paid a visit a couple of doors down and drove off in their new car. So I...
