    Restoration car show

    Great show, went last year but can't make this one. Lots of trade stands so ideal if you need tools etc. Worth going to the show just for the trade stands in my opinion!

    19 Y/O wanting to buy first defender. help please

    5k will get you a decent 300tdi, up to around 1998 I believe. Anything newer will most likely have issues for that amount of money! Are you wanted a station wagon (rear windows and seats) or hard top (like a van). Hard tops seem to be cheaper. As with what to look for, rust rust and rust...

    Filter changed this morning and I have taken it for a 10 mile fast drive, and I cannot replicate original fault! So far so good. Thanks Rob!!

    Ticking noise and down on power 300tdi

    I will be SO happy if this is the case. I did run the tank pretty low, it took 45 litres to fill it so couldn't be nice in there! I will replace that tomorrow - thanks.

    Ticking noise and down on power 300tdi

    Cheers Mick, I've actually got a mechanics stethoscope, the noise is definitely coming from the FI pump, but I can't work out why!

    Ticking noise and down on power 300tdi

    Cheers guys. I've just been out for a little play now to try and track the fault down. Removing the fuel filter end of the pipe from lift pump to fuel filter and turning the engine over results in loads of diesel coming out the pipe, so all good to fuel filter... Pretty sure lift pump is...
