    Steering wheel misalignment! help!

    I know this is a daft question but what part of the wheel do you hit with the hammer and how hard do you hit it? Worried about breaking it.

    Steering wheel misalignment! help!

    I have the same issue with mine. It's not a huge problem but causes my ordered mind to twitch a bit. I would prefer to try James's second option but I am damned if I can get my steering wheel to budge. Tried with my hands, knees, soaked with WD40 but it's locked on solid. Any bright ideas ?

    Thanks for your responses. Finally got it sorted today by removing the wheel arch spat and used a bendy socket extension to tighten the hose clip. Got there in the end, need to be more patient

    Thanks for taking the time to search out the part number. That's a hell of a price for a wee bit of rubber.

    Wanted Defender 200tdi - Annoying But Important Part Needed

    Thanks for the response. It's actually the one on the inner part of the wing vent not the filter canister. Do you know if they're the same part?

    Wanted Defender 200tdi - Annoying But Important Part Needed

    Hi all After a 12 month search I finally found the inner wing part that links to the tube for the air box to the external side vent. I found it at the Autojumble at the Scottish Land Rover Show yesterday. Finally I can fit my snorkel. After the euphoria of finding the part, when I got home I...

    Passenger Door Lock Problem

    Love the humour we get on LZ :) We've been married 30 years and its 29 1/2 years since I bought her flowers. If I did she would accuse me of having an affair.

    Passenger Door Lock Problem

    Thanks John Yes had a closer look at this after you replied and it was a simple fix. The lock on the inside is attached to the handle mechanism by two small bolts, they had loosened and just needed to move it back into position and retightened

    Latest problem to hit me last night and could do with some words of wisdom please. I'm talking 86 pre defender passenger door with lift up door handles and the sprung thumb turn inside lock.

    LED Halo type Headlights - a word to the wise.

    On OP photo the original indicator lenses aren't the same, ones orange the other clear. Isn't that an MOT failure as well?

    Water Temp Help!!

    Mines a pre defender with a 200tdi conversion too. I had exactly the same issue ie reading in the red but engine not overheating. I replaced the sender but made no difference and turned out to be the guage. Once replaced everything hunky dory again.
