That is some truck - and then some more! What have you got pushing it along? As I remember, those trepadors take a bit of torque to get their attention?

That looks very tidy considering its age. Good catch, well done!

That's pretty much my opinion, today's idea is to get it collected and taken to a proper diesel engineer! I'll let you know...

New turbo fitted, now only firing on three pots.

Well, time for an update, I think. I left my TD4 with a local garage last Tuesday as requested for them to perform the required surgery. Since then, I've been fed a diet of excuses, misinformation and downright bulldroppings on the occasions that they can be bothered to answer the phone. When...

OK, guys, time for an update. Did the diagnostic thing with with various plug in devices and a smoke generator, when the smoke came on I was waiting for the strobes and a crashing noise that introduced King Crimson, and, after a degree of head scratching and a bit of lever jiggling, the final...

Morning, I've got the Pierburg and fitted it along with the ronbox. The MAP is next in line for a look see, but in an hour I'm plugging in the snap on equivalent of the mothership. Hopefully, it'll come up with an error code that I can actually deal with. I'll report back with the results!

this is a familiar tale, the one where the hero, my TD4, has all his superpowers removed in much the same manner as kryptonite effects the 'man of steel'. Yes, it's at 70mph, and yes, it's at approx 3000rpm. (Wake up at the back there,) So, you all know the story so all I'm going to do is list...

That could be Mr Mitchell from Sheffield as a guess!

I've been advised to come and have a word with all you knowledgable landrover gurus here as I've heard this forum referred to in hushed, almost awestruck, tones, as "the real 4x4's equivalent of the oracle at Delphi." Right, that's blown enough smoke in the direction of assorted orifices, or...
