Hi everyone finally brought myself a stage 1 V8 station wagon!! sounds so good haha!!!!! The only thing is that the rear door pillars are gone does anybody no where I can get some from?? any help would be great!!! cheers!!!

cause I have recently removed the end of my thumb no feeling in the end gets cold very fast, Planing a trip to norway so it could be very cold!!! And the heater broke in my Td5 the other day, and if the smiths heater fitted it could be a cheaper a hotter option if ya know what I mean!!

Hi all!! Does anyone know if I can put a smiths heater into 110 td5??

Yee done the whole motor took 20 mins!! although firstly I noticed that some of the wires were loose, turned over first time! but then after that, just went back to the clicking!!

Hello all!! Thanks for everyones replies!! For future reference, it was the starter motor, the smoke coming from the back of the engine was a leaking rocker cover gasket! And the turning over problem there was a leak in the pipes near the regulator! just letting a bit of air in!! All done in an...

I cant see that its the head gasket, if the water levels and oil levels are staying the same!! no oil on top of the water, and definetly no chuffing noises come from the block!! Which is what I had on an old 200tdi of mine when I get the next day off I will rip the old girl apart n see what I...

Ahh right on, mine always fires up but can take a while, up to 10 turns sometimes!! It has been doing it for 7 months so be about 20,000 miles!! Right I have had a look and there is leaking coming down on to the starter, but it does not smell like diesel?? more oil!! Also when I did the engine I...

Ideal thanks everyone!!! I suppose the hissing noise could be normal cause you never normaly have the bonnet open before starting! but yes when it EVENTUALLY starts the hissing does stop!! but then it goes all smokey!! definitely the same side as the old dipstick there! will go n have a look...

Well that would be the obvious but like i said water and oil levels get checked daily and no levels seem to be dropping!! the heater still remains hot when engine is idling!! i will take that plastic cover n have a look later!! what you reckon the hissing noise is when you turn the ignition on??

Yes and yes!! The thing I find wired though is, my 1999 engine blew up cause I did not know bout the stupid oil pump bolt on the bottom there!! Anyway when I was running the 1999 engine it had the starting problem! So I thought by putting the 2002 engine might have solved it (it has not!!) So...

i forgot to add I done them!!! Its starting to annoy me haha!!!

Hi all I am new to the forum cause my land rover finally made me join with many problems, but this one has stumped me! As you all no the td5 fires up fairly fast, but mine is sometimes is turning over 10 times before it starts! all starter motor wiring etc, looks ok! I have cleaned the ECU and...
