    ‘Leaver’ replacement time

    https://www.lrworkshop.com/ gives prices from various retailers. People seem to have their favourite suppliers, I have had no issues with paddocks, britcar or lrseries

    Disco 2 D2 TD5 Gearbox Noise

    Just listened to your video again and now I'm not so sure, it could be either of them. For the cost of the parts I'd replace both as the gearbox would be off already

    Disco 2 D2 TD5 Gearbox Noise

    Yeah, with the pedal down the gearbox isn't turning so it isnt that. Spigot bush makes more of a squealy whine and your vid sounds like grindey noise

    Disco 2 D2 TD5 Gearbox Noise

    Sounds like release bearing is done for. Noisy spigot bush is common on TD5 your noise sounds worse than they do

    DS new transmission

    I'd say their diag isnt worth 70p. Seems to me its either incompetence or maybe they are trying to make a few quid on warranty work

    DS new transmission

    I'm certainly no Einstein but the error code is something to do with hydraulic pressure. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say THERES NO PRESSURE COS THE ENGINE ISNT RUNNING but maybe their code reader doesnt tell them that ;)

    DS new transmission

    I think the failing here is the dealer looking at it. I'd be willing to bet a competent garage would have a different diagnosis. My advice would be get it moved to your garage, a 200 quid tow bill would likely save you a load of grief and cash

    DS new transmission

    Seems they are claiming as no drive rather than no start?

    Loss of power on Defender

    Sounds like pushrod problem either wrong one in slave or MC one needs adjusting

    Waste vegetable oil

    A second click reveals another figure of 106 for the manual and 101 for the auto. Either way, OP either has a very optimistic speedo or he's looking at kms. TBH you'd probably need a wheelbarrow for your gonads if you felt comfortable going over 115 in a P38

    Waste vegetable oil

    Whilst I have no doubt we are feeding a troll here, as a previous owner of M51 engined vehicles I thought 115 sounded optimistic in a P38 so I hit google and it appears the claimed top speed for the diesel is 103

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    It's one of ECP pricing tricks, price individually but sell them in pairs :rolleyes:

    Hi, from very sad Landy owner

    Maybe Shielder have improved of late, I know the rep wasn't very good for their chassis. If I was doing the job I'd have a good look at Maer, although not made in this country the prices seem very good and I haven't heard bad things

    Lightweight S3 with Ford Banana Diesel - which Engine would you swop too?

    My RRC had the same engine fitted when I bought it, a bit noisy and a bit underpowered but was extremely good on fuel. From memory was 70hp or so but used to pull a loaded cattle box fine. Mine was dated at around 94 by the starter motor when it needed replacing

    300tdi rebuild question / costs?

    As above, water pump and timing belt kit then leave it alone really. Generally 200&300s are just as good at 200k as when they were new

    Disco 1 Gearbox plunger

    Not being familiar with the slickshift kit, I googled it. https://www.onlinegearboxparts.com/product/defender-lt77-r380-slickshift-inc-td5-bundle/ It even has videos ;)

    Disco 1 Gearbox plunger

    There is no plunger or push down effect on the LT77. There is however a spring at the base of the gear lever which you push harder against to get reverse. Not sure how good access is on a defender so you may need to remove the transmission tunnel to get to it

    Good point, I had assumed it was a diesel
