    TD5 03 couple of oil leaks + water

    Thanks for all the replies people, very helpful to me. The slight coolant leak, I can feel dampness under that top hose, thats why i thought it might be coming from there abouts somewhere, you can see a slight discolouration in the picture where I think it might drip from. That top hose is warm...

    TD5 03 couple of oil leaks + water

    I think this is where the oil is coming from. Seems to run down the pipe where my finger is, then be all over the underneath of the engine. What do you guys think?

    TD5 03 couple of oil leaks + water

    Water leak. At closer inspection I think the coolant may be coming from around this part here that is attached to the engine with maybe the thermostat on?

    TD5 03 couple of oil leaks + water

    No pictures of the other leaks, I will get some tomorrow at lunch. I thought that was the handbrake.

    Newbie here...fuel issue?

    Cleaned my MAF and MAP today, they were a bit grubby. See if it helps. Have also ordered an EGR blanking kit as it seems that's what everyone is doing.

    Newbie here...fuel issue?

    Thanks for the replies. Have booked it in to be plugged in at my local 4x4 specialist on tuesday, he said they would check fuel pressure and also do a visual check aswell. They said it could be oil in loom but doesnt exactly sound right, I also asked about fuel pump but he said they have found...

    Hi, New to the world of Defenders, and have a question or two for you experienced folk about my 2003 TD5 1) Vehicle pulls well enough, but top end speed seems low. Feels like its struggling at 65-70. On the way home tonight the fuel light came on. It seemed to transform it and it was much...

    Hello there

    Hi all. Finally plucked up the courage to buy my first Defender, after everyone warned me off. Thought it was something I needed to get out of my system! Last week picked up an 03 plate pickup and it seems mostly fine, but a few issues I will ask for help with later. But loving the driving...
