Hi everyone. I need to change my P gasket and waterpump (and gasket) on my 300tdi. I’m a little confused on which gasket sealant I should use on both these gaskets I need to fit. I’ve seen reference to using Hylomar, Hylosil and grease on my youtube searches. I’ve used Locktight whilst fitting...

Not long bought a Series 2a and I'd like to understand where the headlights should be located. Presently I have 4 headlights, two inner and two outer which are situated on the wings. I'd prefer them to be on the inside only (as per the old style) and do away with the two outside lights on the...

Following my last MOT (last May) I had an advisory saying "rear brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened". Can anyone point me in the direction of a step by step guide (photos) or video on how I should do this - I have not been able to find anything online so far. Is there a...

Tearing my hair out with this fault and getting quite close to getting professional help! My rear fog light and fog dash light has suddenly come on and I can't switch them off! Even disconnecting the switch altogether and removing the fog light fuse (no. 6 from the left) results in the fog and...

Went to my Landy (300tdi) which has been standing for a couple of weeks and noticed that the rear fog light was on which seemed strange (have not used it recently). Noticed the switch was in the off position anyway when I checked and the fog light dash light was on as well, however when I...

I've just bought a new heavy duty matting system from Wight Off Road and am ready to fit it to my Defender 90. I wonder if anyone has any tips about what product I should put on the metal of the footwell underneath the new matting system. I was planning on stripping everything out, painting it...

Am struggling to identify the location of this slight coolent leak (blue) on my 300tdi Defender (see picture). Any ideas where this is likely to be coming from? The P gasket at the top looks dry. Is it just time to change the water pump and p gasket and be done with it or should I be looking for...

I'm in the process of fitting a new canvas to my 90. Have painted the rear, fitted the sticks and bought a new rear mat (see photo). Following some rain, water is pooling at one end and I was wondering if I should be drilling some drain holes. If so, is there any special advice on doing this...

Just noticed a small wet patch under my Defender. The structure (pump??) under my alternator appears to be leaking a blue liquid. My screen wash is blue and also my radiator fluid (antifreeze), so don't know what it is or where it is coming from. Please excuse my ignorance but if someone can...

I would like some advice regarding buying some new black steel wolf style wheels for my 1998 Defender. Does anyone have any experience of steel wheels purchased from Challenger Steels I wonder? Are they generally ok and fit for purpose, or are there any similar alternatives I should be...

The aluminium body section where my near side tubular outrigger is attached has turned into powder in a small section (see picture). Can someone please provide some technical advice on how I should fix this. Is it a case of angle grinding it out and covering with a replacement section? If so...

I will be applying Dinitrol ML 3125 to the internal parts of my 1998 Defender chassis and bulkhead to protect it. However, I'd like some guidance on which product to use on the exterior of the chassis. I had assumed it would be Dinitrol 4941, but the guidance on the Rejel website (Dinitrol...

I'm currently scrapping the "bubbly" bits on 1998 300tdi Defender with a view of touching them up with some paint. Just found this small bit of corrosion on the bulk head and wondered what you guys think I should do. The hole does not go all the way through and a thin piece of existing metal is...

I will be replacing the three worn leak off pipes on my 300 tdi 90. I notice the small copper pipe nearest the bulkhead has nothing connected to it at present but the one nearest the radiator has a plastic pipe on it. I also notice three plastic pipes near the bulkhead "doing nothing"' which may...

I have a small oil leak on my 1998 300tdi 90 so I need to change the O seals on the Waxstat and oil cooler pipe. Can someone please confirm the size of spanner I need to undo/tighten the oil cooler pipe connection (see diagram). One thread said 24mm but this appears to big. I think it is more...

I have a small oil leak through my 300tdi 90 rocker cover gasket. I will be replacing with a genuine LR gasket as others have recommended. My question is if I should be using some form of sealant or grease either side of the new gasket or not. If so, what should this be? Also, is there anything...

Getting my 300tdi 90 ready for waxoyling. After a thorough jetwash and tapping all over the chassis with a hammer I found this corrosion behind the offside rear wheel spring housing. It appears that the wheel spring housing has corroded slightly which has revealed the main chassis behind. There...

Spent all day removing leaking fuel tank on my Defender - nightmare job! Got it out by destroying both rear and front brackets and giving it a kick! Have fitted new rear and front brackets but can't re-position new tank and appears not to "go"' although size is correct. Can anyone please give me...
