Sorry to hear about the doors mate. Arseholes springs to mind.

Hughesy, yep hear what you are saying, the heater that i might be getting has a timer on. i would set it to hopefully kick in before i drive in the morning so that its warmed up, and hopefully has de-iced the windows. Once the engine is up to running temp, let the landy heater take over...

As we all know the heater in the landy is pants, looking at doing a trip to the french alps this december for 2 weeks. am looking at fitting a eberspacher airtonic diesel heater. Has anyone out there ever fitted one, i'm looking at fitting an independent internal fuel tank, hopefully that way...

Yankee Vet, In my humble opinion i would go for a 300tdi, its an basic engine that will go on and on, its like a tractor engine, bloody great. Nice and simply to work on by the owner for the basic maintenance tasks and also by the normal mechanic in the garage for the more complex jobs. If...

Winter is here and the heater packs up, any suggestions.. and before you say it, i'm wearing a hat and 10 layers to drive to work. Ok, details. Its a 1998 defender 300tdi, station wagon. The fuse is ok, hot air goes through when driving, but the fan does not come on. I have tried messing...
