    300tdi engine noise .. rattling or is it?

    So my trusty 300tdi doesn't sound right,well atleast I don't think it does. Sounded a lot more rattly than it usualy did on the way back from Harrogate to Birmingham. A turbo pipe popped off too, these were just bodged together bits when I did the conversion so I've now replaced them with Steve...

    Hit and run .. how to go about rear body repair

    So my old 110 got smashed into by some idiot getting away from another car he just crashed into. I've attached pics of the damage. Not really sure how it all goes together back there. It's a tithonus with a fiberglass top. Do I need to just drill out the rivets holding the tub edge cap on and...

    Headlights and sidelights not working

    Bit of an odd one, this morning they didn't work, high beam symbol in the dash slightly ilumanated which made the headlights and side lights stop working, flicked it on and off and it went back to normal. Now the high beam symbol is permanently slightly ilumanated and I can't get the...

    Smaller steering wheel

    Im currently installing an Alfa Romeo seat in my 110, it's quite abit bigger than the standard Exmoor seat I have, Got it bolted down but the steering wheel is much too big, I really didn't want a small steering wheel but looks like I'll have too if I want this. I don't have a ton of money for...

    Loud turbo whistle

    300tdi, My turbo has started whistling quite loud all of a sudden under load, Can't replicate it without a load so I can't tell exactly where it's coming from and all the pipe joints are tight. Minimal play in the turbo but a little bit of oil, about the same as all the other 300tdis ive had...

    Last time you had to 'repair' your land rover

    Thinking the other day, the last time I actually had to fix something on my 110 was in April 2018, when the clutch master cylinder went and that was my fault as I fitted a cheap one when doing the 300tdi conversion,genuine one now. Gets driven around 30 miles everyday, not bad for a 33 year old...

    300tdi belt squeel

    I've always bought dayco belts and they've always squeeled quite bad, especially on full lock and they seem to fit quite loose. Tried a gates belt today, completly different material and went on really tight, no belt squeel and the full lock noise has gone. With the tensioner pulled back, you...

    Hybrid 300tdi

    So clearly I need another project to add to the list. :rolleyes: How feasible of an idea would it be to have an electric motor hooked up to the PTO output on the transfer box that would work in conjunction with the engine rather than running the car on its own? I was thinking a bit more...

    Windscreen washer question

    I orderd a few bits to convert the windscreen washers on to the wiper arms, then realised I don't have just have a single nozzle but two separate ones on each side of the screen and they work fine. Is it standard to have 2 seperate ones on the earlier 110s?

    New Steering box leaking from top plate

    You'd think dropping £500 on a new steering box would mean you wouldnt need to worry about it, but no 1 year later and just over 2000 miles it's leaking out the top plate. Orderd a seal kit, as I do not have the time to send it back and have the land rover out of action over the winter while I...
