Smashing thank you. In that case, I suspect that last time I went down the rabbit hole, I was sticking the ATF III into my Defender.

I appreciate this is a Defender thread, but it's sorta related. I have some old ATF III (which I think I used in an old Defender 300TDI, but now can't be sure and am questioning myself) lying around. However my manual for my Disco 300TDi says that I need ATF IID. I can't seem to find a clear...

Only ten miles away from me as well.

I need to do something like this. But I'm lazy and bought the Red Bison kit from Paddocks, which I'm yet to fit. Glad to see there hear that DIY method worked well though, gives me hope I can get round to using the kit.

195,000 miles give or take, but had a replacemnent engine (straight from doner vehicle, not fully reconditioned) last year. As for pictures, the one above and below are the only ones on my tablet thing. None of the inside; it's basic, but fairly clean. As you go to the same car boots as me...

I can't even work out how to price mine. Auto Trader is sod all use as a guide.

Yes it will. Currently use it as my daily drive, but with upcoming family commitments, I need more seats and something that requires a little less fettling at the weekends.

Myself or SpaceDawg?

Thinking of selling mine. 1994 300tdi. Probably not quite as tidy as the one in this post, but still a wonderful thing. Still coming to terms with the potential loss, but if you are interested, send me a pm.

Mine too. Stupid things. I've just added it to the list of 'charming quirks'.

'cruising forums' Sounds a bit unsavoury.

You need to charge your battery.

I should add that it took me several weekends of swearing, ruining a bush and a seal, in addition to debating setting the vehicle on fire before I classed it as being done. At one point in December I forbade any family member to buy me anything Land Rover related for Christmas as I was so...

I've had an aftermarket immobiliser fitted to mine, but also fancy something a little noisy so that I can at least hear the bastards if they have a go outside the house.

Took me a lot of swearing, consternation and two new bushes (as I dented the first) but now all finished off today and seemingly working. Not been out for a full test drive yet, but so far, no more leaks. Next is the headlight wiring upgrade kit...

Well, I've ordered the kit. My theory is, if I fail, I'll pay someone to do it properly. If I do it right, then I've saved some money. Plus I've got no idea where I can take it locally, other than some random garage who may not do it much better than me.

Like a good boy, I was greasing my nipples the other day, when I spotted a drip from the engine area. After a bit of checking, I discovered diesel leaking out of the throttle spindle on top of the fuel injector. Did a quick search, and spotted this guide -...

My 300tdi barely gets warm on cold days. I've just taken to wearing two layers of socks and a scarf. One day I'll endeavour to sort properly, but I only ever remember about it when it's cold and I don't want to be outside.

I like Cromer and have spent many a jolly weekend there.

That site doesn't seem too pricey for stuff. Have you tried them?
