    TD5 IMOBILIZED

    Hi mate I feel your pain. All that immobiliser unit does is stop the legitimate owner from driving the Landy! I eventually ran out of patience and removed the immobiliser from the ECU and snipped a wire on the AS10 and now Im free from niggling intermittent starting issues (relating to the...

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Replaced the warped front discs and fitted new pads. Also put the correct fitting kit on the pads so theyre not rattling now. Took a lot longer than I thought it would, 5 hours, but thats Landys I guess.

    ‘54 plate td5 coolant loss

    The one I had was the centre core plug just along from the Fuel Pressure Regulator had corrode. Surprisingly easy to to move all the gubbins and get to them. Personally I wouldnt remove the oil dipstick - it does say you need to in the manual but I think that would cause u more pain in the...

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Replaced the power steering pipe that had a massive kink in it when I got a refurbished Power Steering box. Not too bad of a job. Had to cut off the pipe with junior hacksaw to get a 14 mm socket over the bolts going into the pump. Wasnt too fiddly in the end. Whilst I was there I checked the...

    1987 90 COUNTY

    Looks the same as my one I did last year on Landy (theres some photos on here if u look). I cant speak higher of the LRM products. I actually went to their factory/business them to pick them up and spent 30 minutes just chatting away - really great people and superb products. I agree with...

    Td5 dash removal

    Hi Albert Nothing too difficult to remove the dash. First tip I would say is take the bloody steering wheel off. I wish I had it would have made it easier. All the screws are pretty obvious and should be easy enough to locate. Its not a tight fit and should come off pretty easily. I must have...

    Oil coming from drivers seat box.

    I put a bearmach one on for about £25. Its such an easy job its not worth paying for a genuine one. I usually only do that for things that are a pain in the @rse to fit.

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Replaced the rear door hinges on Landy as she was rattling everytime we went over a bit og gravel :-) Now even though I have pretty much replaced everything on Landy over the last 3 years I fell in to the trap of watching youtube videos of how easy it is - BIG MISTAKE. Every bolt door side...

    PAS steering box lower seal

    If its leaking I wud pour in some brake fluid. Will swell the seal and stop the leak. Thats if the box is working ok. I have just replaced the box on my Landy and should have tried that first. My mate swears by it. Dont shoot the messenger !!

    Fuel filter sensor - HELP!

    The self bleeding thing on the TD5 is a right pain in the arse. Either I pour diesel into the new filter and then screw it into the housing or if the bleeding thing doesnt work I just give it a tow and let the clutch out, it will fire up after about 3 or 4 seconds. Probably not the text book...

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Nice plume of diesel on the road and saw that my fuel filter was leaking. When I was renovating Landy I didnt have a budget and so some things got Britpart and somethings didn't. Yes it was a Britpart fuel filter and yes it was corroded. I had a Mahle one I was going to change over anyway so I...

    Buying a Defender

    This seems a lot of money. I recently did a "nut and bolt" rebuild of my TD5. I literally took everything apart and cleaned and replaced where necessary, and either copper greasing or loctiting all the bolts depending on their function. 18 months later I work on her every Saturday morning doing...

    Immobiliser Issue...possibly?

    Hi mate - I had exactly the same issue. I chased everything down. I replaced the solenoid on my starter, then I changed the starter, the battery and even the cable from the starter to the battery. It was the small connector to the starter, it had become corroded. I just replaced the spade and...

    Hi everyone Im gradually getting through all of the none essential items on my rebuild. I had to get a new fuel cap yesterday and the guy at the parts shop was like "there cant be anything you havent replaced". Anyhoo the plastic cover on the dash warning lights is cracked and Im trying to...
