i ordered 80 sq foot of damplifier and the plan was to stick it everywhere, make the inside of the cab look like sputnick. will let you know what the end product is lie when completed.

nope never had a new car, never been in the position to afford a new one till now. i do enjoy a good fiddel with something but at this time in my life i am too bussy macking money to have the time to be fixing things. if you all want a laugh here is a list of my previous cars since 17. rover...

decided to go for one of the very last TD5 defenders ever made. 07 plate delivery miles. i had a good long think about a "new" new one and decided it would probably be best to avoid the first model as possible problems wont have appeared yet? only problem i can think of is that i wont want to...

my old J reg disco had this problem, had a new floor pan fitted, painted ect. cost £260 a good few years ago. maybe an easy option? maybe not, but atleast i could stand up in the back again after that repair.

i have fitted one of these before, came with a blanking plate for the exhaust manifold and a straight through pipe from inlet manifold to intercooler. also came with a small blanking cap for the blue vacume hose to the valve on the EGR. found it very easy to fit, and as charlesy has said you...

Damplifier came today, looks a bit like lead lashing for roof repairs. comes in 12in x 24in sheets. installed it on the flore pan of a 90 and wow what a difference allready. i would need to finish installing it to other areas before i could rate it properly and take it out for a bit of mway...

well said charlesY, finally something said that makes sense. I totally agree trying to make a TD5 do things it wasnt designed for wasnt the best idea i have ever had, but we all live and learn. i have just purchased a new vehicle with warranty ect and i intend to "look after this one" NOT A...

you lot are sad, what more would i expect from people who stick with these ****ty vehicles. going to pick up a nice new toyota twin cab pick up. bye bye ****ty old british crap cars, hello pleasurable days of trouble free motoring.

oh i see we are all funny Fu****s on this site. lets set the scene you go to look at a possible landy for £xxxx you have a good look round all looks good untill you see the spatter marks and burn marks from dodgy daves welding effort on the chassis! you see another vehicle with a nice...

"if you look after them they'll look after you" 1999 td5 90 defender 80k fsh, in the last 3 weeks i have had to: replace all door hinges +seals All UJ joints on f+r prop shafts, New fly wheel + clutch assembly New Pads all round with clips and springs!! woow New exhaust manifold +...

good news my trusty land rover is now useless, the gearbox has blown up! sounded really good twisting meatl, cracking joints, smashing bearings, plates of metal hitting the flore ect ect my vehicle is now abandoned on the side of a road with no name, in a pool of its own fluids! how...

clutch, just have a new one fitted i had the same problem a few weeks ago, turned out that the flywheel was out of line so it was replaced. much better now.

new chassis. if a jobs worth doing its worth doning well. dodgy welding a landrover chassis is certainly going to devalue the vehicle. its about the only solid part on a land rover and if its rusty and falling appart then you dont really have much choice.

general grabbers arnt the best boots for anyting. could be sticky pistons in your brake calipers. or your disks could have a nice rusty outer edge that digs into the brake pad under hard braking. take a hammer and bang that rust off. you could try new disks and pads, land rover parts shop.com...

"just mechanically sound and fairly reliable" dont look for a landy you need a toyota! i am a keeper here in scotland and as such i have to use landys as my only means of transport and for lamping ect. to be honest they are not the best 4x4xfar anymore. 4K could get you a nice quiet motor...

hi i have been having a few noise related problems with my TD5 and i still carnt find the culprit. when the engine is accelerating gently it is fine but if you are accelerating then flore it a sort of weezing/ hissing sound starts. i have checked all the usuall things but as there is no wire...

My Td5 is NOT QUIET, it is slowly turning me deff and mad i have just placed an order for Second Skin Damplifier Bulk Kit from car audio direct. i will let you know what i think of this product when i have installed it.

had the Twisted uprated intercooler and pipes fitted, it fits perfectly in place and bolts to the radiator just the the original should. very good piece of kit, alittle bit smaller than the allisport one but because the radiator is exposed as standard (the alli blocked it off completely) the...

just had the new twisted performance intercooler fitted with the hose kit, fits like a glove. seems to be a bit slower through the rev range now but the clouds of smoke have gone, and it does seem to "pul" in a more controlled fashion. i am happy with it, just have to wait a few days for the...

yes , i had a look on auto traader, thanks for the tip, lots of nice landys to choose from. i still seems to me that you will struggle to get a TD5 with average milage for under £5000. they seem to hover arround the £6000 - £6500 mark. i still think £3500 for my vehicle is...
