    Concerned about buying defender for it to be robbed

    Used to lock mine, got fed up of finding broken windows, mashed up door locks, mullered ignition barrels etc. Now I don't lock it I've never had a problem since. It's as if they think it's too easy a steal, police bait motor etc. End of the day if they really want it it'll they'll get it...

    Sean J's Defender 90 300 Tdi Project and Work Vehicle

    Managed to grab an hour today to finish some jobs off so did the last piece of trim work for in the back of the landy. The entire rear has now been sound proofed and ply lined with a black acoustic carpet covering. Looks really smart and really helps keep the noise down inside. Decide...

    Sean J's Defender 90 300 Tdi Project and Work Vehicle

    Been struggling with braking when at speed, the landy would pull violently to the right and it the wet was down right dangerous, checked the front brakes and found the N/S/F caliper was leaking under pressure. New caliper painted to match all the suspension arms and fitted up. Had a horible...

    Sean J's Defender 90 300 Tdi Project and Work Vehicle

    Had an issue when laning, after a few hours the oil light would start to flicker on tick over. Engine wasnt noisy and light would go out once the revs had increased. After lots of investigation I opted to change the thermostat that allows the oil to flow through the cooler. Its been two months...

    300 tdi viscous pulley bypass

    So finally got rounded looking at my Aux belt issue. 7pk 1380 is a perfect fit, done 400 miles plus with no issues.

    Implications of a full straight through exhaust

    Used to have a straight through on mine, 300 tdi though. It flew through mot's with it on and unless you buried the throttle it really wasn't that noisy.

    300 tdi viscous pulley bypass

    I've seen it done before but with a 1400 and the alternater used as the main tensioner with some slotted brackets added to its top mounts. So I was kind of hoping a slightly shorter belt would erase the need for that too. I guess they'll only be one way to find out.

    300 tdi viscous pulley bypass

    The viscous fan pulley bearing is nearing collapse on my 300 tdi and I'm looking to bypass with a different aux belt till I've enough time freed to fix it properly. I've worked out that a 7pk 1350 belt would first and hopefully tension up nicely. Does anyone know if this belt would be the right...

    Hi-lo selector linakge

    Im after some help identifying a part on this linkage. Its held in place by two nuts on a threaded shaft that allow it to be adjusted and the other end connects to the selector shaft of the gear box. Mine has snapped clean in half and I'm having trouble sourcing a new part. I would post a...

    My Review of a Timber Trail Boost Pin. Defender 200tdi. (or 300tdi)

    I went to change the boost pin on my 300 tdi as it was flat and sluggish and it made faf all difference, turns out the guvnour pin was seized on basically minimum setting. After un-seizing it was a different machine, bags of torque from low down and through the rev range. It would certainly be...

    Where are your speakers?

    I've got 6x9's in custom boxes mounted on/in the rear tub behind the front seats and an amp for them behind the middle seat. System thumps it out and is perfectly audible at all speeds, even on the motorway with the Insa Turbo Special Tracks howling away!!
