Hi Flossie, I’m being so dumb as I didn’t realise that yes there is a spring on that ignition switch and finally I have leaned it now how to use it. It does allow me to twist the key to spring and glow plug light come on. Thanks for your help...

Thanks for your help

Hi folks Could someone please explain in plain English that what does that +90 means? Does that bolt needs to turn further 90 degrees manually? Or that 27mm bolt needs to be tightened to 80 Nm first then once again tighten to 90 Nm? Thanks

Hi Folks I am new to this, could someone please explain is similar language what does +90 means. I did torque it to 80nm with a torque wrench but not sure about this +90 means. Does that mean after 80nm torque, that 27mm bolt needs to be...

Hi mate my 300tdi is making the whining noise on heavy load or high rev too. Recently I have renewed the Manifold gasket and pulled the turbo slight off without taking off the exhaust, maybe it might have disturbed its seal. Do you have any...

Hi I think it was the 2.5td diesel engine

Hi folks Thanks for your precious time. I have replaced this cap without removing manifold. I knocked the old one out carefully with a 36inch long crow bar without damaging the Engine block edges. This new cap’s steel is slightly thicker may...

I will try to replace it, bit scared hope that won’t drop into the Engine. I think someone already applied some sort of putty on it instead of replacing the cap. May be I could smear it with some TRV

I have just watched a video on YouTube for replacement. I have just renewed the manifold gasket and P Gasket and Red coolant. It’s seems like I have to remove everything again OMG. Can I reuse the Coolant if I manage to drain it slowly and use a...

Hi thanks for your reply, it has some space but not enough. Could you please provide any instructions how to replace these core plugs or refer to any manual?

Hi yes it’s pre Tdi model. It only has one position to switch on the ignition then on the further turn it starts the engine. Please advise what would the best way forward

Hi frinds P gasket was leaking on my 300Tdi conversion. Which replaced around couple of weeks ago. I noticed some coolant leak again and thought P Gasket is still leaking then I replaced the P Gasket again with TRV this time. Today I have noticed...

Hi I did switched on the ignition and Battery’s red light illuminate on the dashboard. Sorry I don’t know what does mean by spring resistance. But Glow plugs ligh doesn’t come on. Does that mean it didn’t had any glow plugs replay at first place?

Hi Folks I need your help please on my Defender 90 with 300tdi conversion done by previous owner. Engine starts up without any issue but exhaust emit lots of smoke on start up only. I thought to check up the glow plugs power. When I switch on...

Cannot beat plain old standard 80/90. nowt fancy is needed.

I get your point, thanks for advise. 😂

Is it something works like this? Please check

Hi all, I’m just wondering if anyone has used Swepco 201 diff/multipurpose oil from Winchesters?

Thanks for your help. Some reason when I move it to the Diff lock position then it takes around half a minute to illustrate the Diff light and to engage. Is it supposed to be like this?

Sorry I think I have figured it out. If I move the small stick to the left if engage the Diff lock and it drives without the rear prop shaft and light illuminate on the dash board. So does that mean small stick positions to the Right and back...

Hi thanks for your reply, sorry I can’t understand being daft. Small gearstick is in Right then rear position, then I can see rear TB shaft is spinning but it doesn’t drive and front prop shaft is not spinning. Is there’s anyway I could just make...

Hi I don’t know how diff lock lever work. I have removed rear Prop shaft to see if it makes any clunk/judder or not. Please explain in detail how to engage/disengage diff lock and how high low diff works?
