    Oil pressure

    My 06 discovery 3 oil light came on this morning after driving over a speed hump. The engine was up to temperature, I had about 20 minutes motorway drive done and was 2 minutes from work. It went off straight away but came back on as I parked up at work. I checked it at break time and all...

    EBP my fault but needed.

    I was leaving work on Wednesday and heard a clicking noise in time with the wheels. When I looked for the noise I found it coming from the drivers side rear wheel , I think the disc was warped it's time to change them anyway so I got a set of discs shoes and pads. When I took the disc off I...

    Egr blanking

    I hope to blank the egr valves on my 2006 2.7 discovery 3 tomorrow, I have the kit but no guide came with it. The job looks easy enough on line however but is it essential to remove the butterfly valve in the intake housing at the top of the engine? Looks like work that won't effect the...

    Discovery 3 Rear Toe Spindal Rods

    I have posted some pictures of two nuts that I cant budge, on the inside of the toe spindal rods. They take 23mm sockets and not with a breaker bar, nor an impact gun, would they move. I have the new spindal rods but they came without the nuts, it's a 17mm diameter thread and I cant find nuts to...

    Disco 3 cruise control

    I have added cruise control and radio steering wheel switches to my base model 2006 commerical discovery 3 . The radio and CD switches work as I had hoped but the cruise control switch doesn't as I had expected. I was not surprised that it needed to be enabled or recognised by the ECU. I...

    TD5 Defender wont start

    I have this defender since 2004 and have fixed a lot things on it over the years but I'm sure what the problem is this time ? I replaced the fuel pump about two years ago and the injector seals around the same time, so I'm hoping that they are not the problem this time . It was getting hard to...

    New fuel pump problem

    On the first week of January I replaced the fuel pump on a 99 Td5 defender. I've been stuck on the side of the road three times since, the three occasions I had a half tank of fuel left or maybe a little less than half. There is no warning at all like spluttering or normal stuff you would...

    Fuel Pump?

    While changing the fuel filter last week on a defender 110 TD5, the fuel filter housing was so corroded it split into two halves. I've fitted the new filter housing and filter this morning, but I have been trying all day to bleed the system with no luck. I've changed the filter several times...

    Whats the new noise ?

    Impossible to answer probably without looking and listening to my 110 td5 yourselves . Its a 1999 with only 12000 miles up, 3/4 by me and its been serviced on time every time from new. It started a whirring noise last week from the engine somewhere (a baring somewhere I think). It keeps with the...

    Difflock, is mine working?

    I was reversing a couple of tonne of timber on my trailer this morning over 4 inches of snow and poor enough ground. The landy started slipping so I put it in difflock but I still got nowhere, by opening the drivers door I could see the back wheel was spinning but I was alone so no way to see if...

    Clutch master cylinder

    I've spent the last 4 hours replacing the clutch master cylinder on my 110 td5. Before I started there was fluid running down the pedal but apart from having to top up once a week the clutch was ok but now I barely have any clutch. When I press the pedal tight to the floor I can just about get...

    Steering all over the place.

    I thought that it was in my mind for a few weeks, it seemed every time I come off the throtle the landrover pulled to the right but it breaked in a straight line. Last Saturday night I towed 3 tonne for about 60 miles of B roads and It sure was'nt just in my mind (scary stuff) . I'm going to...

    A tiny little leak.

    I changed the clutch slave cylinder a couple of weeks ago (thanks to all who advised me on here) and its been good as new sience. I did'nt change the flexi pipe at the same time as they had'nt any in stock. When I looked under the bonnet this morning I noticed that where the flexi pipe joins to...
