yeh finally talked him into it, so we should be there on friday night, i believe your coming from the europe side!!!!

You can prchase the plugs for the rear of the radio from any good car audio shop, maybe even halfords, if these dont have addaptors on the other end just cut off the old plugs and start again. You will need a permanant live, an ignition live and a earth to power the radio these are easily found...

Try Buckley Bros in Blackburn www.landroverspares.co.uk or 01254208042 Graham

I would say it is easier and probably as cheap to replace the full hinge the only trouble is getting them painted, in some cases as with mine they are so worn that you have to replace the full unit Try www.landroverspares.co.uk they do mail order and most of the parts are Bripart, they are...

yeh i agree snap o should have the tool you req or if not like our dealer he will get hold of one for you!! Not being funny but is it not easier and cheaper to get a recon unit???

Would i be right in thinking he meant the prop shaft? If tere is excessive play in the Universal joints on this it could cause the knocking noises you describe also check all the springs and axle alignment whilst under there

Cheers i will have a look. The ones i have seen are around £500 for 4 with 4 new steel wheels, the same for either brand but i will have a look on the net. thanks again

Im Defenatly going, and should have new wheels and tyres by then!!!

Going to be purchasing some new mud tyres shortly:) , thinking about BF goodrich mud terrains as they are a good wearing tyre and brilliant in the mud! But i have also just seen the Goodyear wrangler mud terrain which look a more aggresive tread anyone had these tyres or have any info about them...

This is a very comon problem with this engine, which is helped by regular servicing by competent mechanics. Keep a check on coolent and oil levels and also that temp gauge for anything unusual. Im not sure if the problem has been cured on newer models but i is still being fitted so you never...

Under normal motorway driving (70+) in a defender 200Tdi 90 how high should the gauge go, mine reaches about 3 quarters is this normal ?????

Give it a good run, sounds silly but the exhaust might be full of smoke, if no better and as you say not loosing or burning water check the injection pump timing, fuel filters,lines and pick ups as this can be a sign of fuel blockage

yeh as wingy said we are the "next best thing", we off road together as much as possible. The problem is we are pretty much restricted to brierfield in burnley as there are not many rights of way in lancs!!!! But this problem could of been solved with a fello member (fitz) knowing lanes around...

I have had the same problem with mine, usually after a session off roading. What i had to do was strip the handbrake unit down (this is the large drum on the rear of the gearbox) remove the actuator unit strip it clean and grease all the parts (sounds harder than it is). Also check the condition...

If its engine oil then it will be your rear main oil seal which is behind the flywheel. This will mean removing the gearbox to repair it. Not a difficult job to do but a ramp helps Graham

I ve just turned 24 so mine is still expensive with some providers but the cheapest one by far is farmers union (NFU) they give landrover owners extra discount, for my defender 90 im paying £400 fully comp, might be worth a ring 01200429622 this is my local office but they should be able to give...

Hi irlin I have heard of similar faults being caused but the IRD (intermediate Reduction Drive), from what i have read in LRO magazine this is a difficult diy job. I would suggest having it checked out by a landrover specialist first as these units arn't to cheap but if this is the fault and...

If it was running fine when you left it then i would say its nothing terminal, could just be damp, try spraying everything electrical with wd40 (or anything like), clean and set the plug gaps and maybe try some new points as they are only cheap, i used to have a old polo and it ran like a bag of...

Try new oil (ATF) but looking at what has been said before i would say your box is f**ked. There is no way of checking the clutch fork without taking out the box. Myself and accywingy changed a R380 box the other week on Roys 90 because of a loud knocking from the gearbox when ticking over and...
