    Replace swivels or use swivel repair kit

    If I wasnt short on cash atm I wouldnt even entertain the thought of a repair kit and would buy new swivels, but seeing as mine are not corroded and its the swivel bearings that have died i'm thinking if buying a repair kit. Unless of course anyone would recomend otherwise. Ive also noticed the...

    Heater Fan, doesn't work until it's spun

    I'm not sure what fan you have, but if it's the defender snail type they are not expensive or hard to change.

    Defender rear sliding windows

Having never done this before I wouldnt mind some pointers I need to cut the sides on my van, I know Massai do a template, does anyone else do it? Or is it simple enough to mark out and save the £15. I've...

    Struggling on hills

    The hp side of my fuel pump died and it was exactly like you describe. In the end I couldnt get over 50 mph on the motorway or get up any hills without being in a low gear. I went down the wrong path looking for boost leaks etc as mine was only boosting to 7psi. New fuel pump and it flew again.

    Door & bonnet thefts?

    If they steal my doors I could follow the trail of rust to find them again. Mines painted a non std colour, I've often wondered if that would be enough to stop them going missing?
