    Puma fine for 30miles/until warm, then loses turbo/power

    I have a 2007 Puma 2.4 TDwhatever that picks up great when starting out, power kicks in below 2000rpm, can hear turbo in background etc. But get the engine warm, say after 20miles on the motorway, and we lose all power. A case of taking foot off gas, and not getting anything back when you...

    Roo lites - 55/100W?

    Hallo - getting confused and not got a clear answer yet... Need to fit some driving lights to the 90, and having looked around have picked up on Roo Lites in terms of cost/quality/spot to wide focus etc. But. The 170s seem to only come with 100W bulbs, when I thought 55W was max for road...

    Temperature sender

    Hi - seems like my "overheating" 300TDi was a dodgy temperature sender, apparently... He took the landy out, saw the gauge right in the red, but when he opened the bonnet, he was pretty certain it wasn't actually overheating. IR thermometer read about 91degC, hoses could be touched without...

    Snow Chains

    For a Defender 90, with 205/80 R16s. Any recommendations, hints, suggestions regarding getting and using a set snow chains? Including do I need 2 pairs, or do you just fit one pair to the front wheels and lock the diff? Thanks all. Matt

    Transmission gone

    I posted on Saturday about a loose front prop shaft and a "clutch clunk" that had got markedly worse... This evening had a big crunch as I was pulling away, and there's no transmission to the wheels - _unless_ I lock the diff. 1) ideas as to what has given up? 2) solution? and how much would...
