I have a new issue with the truck. It has an LT77 gearbox and last weekend it was fine. This weekend I drove the car and initially no problem to get into first, accelerate and get 2nd, but then I couldn't get 3rd (grinding noise). I stopped and then couldn't get 1st gear again (or any other)...

Can anyone recommend a garage to get my 200tdi 90 MOT'd but also probably some fettling of them brakes. Ideally Fareham area.

The lower shock mount on the rear axle sheared this morning (90 with rear discs). My local garage can't do it as they don't weld enough to be confident on suspension fittings. Does anyone know a garage that can help local to Chandlers Ford near Eastleigh?

It appears that I have a leak from my FIP. It looks to me like is is coming from the bolt/screw on the right in the image fairly tight against the timing chest. Does anyone know if there would be diesel behind this (I'm guessing so), and also I think the pump would need to come out to get a new...

Long shot but does anyone locally have a TDI (200 ideally) that runs a straight through exhaust I could have a listen to? I'm tempted to do mine but as it's a daily drive I don't want it to be too loud.

Has anyone fitted high level lights to their truck along the lines of this one? I’m keen to fit some but wondering if anyone here had done the same and could recommend the lights that they used?

Yeah, I know it's still November but It's Friday afternoon and I'm stuck in the office at work..... There seem to be a few of us in the Hampshire/South coast area and just wondered what people thought of a Christmas get together? Any interest?

Just about to swap my front dampers so thought I'd replace the turrets for heavy duty open ones and turret rings. Before I order from Paddock Spares at £53 does anyone no any reason not to or any better value turrets...

Has anyone used one of the front middle seats for a dog? My springer currently travels in the back of my 90 in a cage but looking at the possibility of putting in a 3rd seat and having him on there (suitably restrained of course). Anyone done or doing this?

Drove from the South coat to North Wales for a week away (what nice area that is!). No issues with the landy :), but on checking the levels on my return I noticed the exhaust is rusting where it comes out of the silencer. So the question is do I put a stainless straight through mid section on...

Having had a look at the weekend it seems my front propshaft needs work. I know you can replace the UJ’s but I’m thinking about just replacing the shaft as a whole. I don’t know what condition the splines are in but there’s plenty of movement in the rear joint. For the sake of about £65 and 8...

On my Defender 200TDI engine I have an oil leak from the top oil cooler connection on the radiator. I’m hoping I can stop this by ‘nipping up’ the connection but the smaller hose on top is getting in the way of doing this. If I take this hose off does anyone know how much oil is going to come...

Well, after many years of loving Land Rovers I've gone ahead and got myself one. A 1989 90 200TDI (defender engine) on a galvanised chassis. I don't pick it up until this weekend (new clutch being fitted) so no problems at the moment :). Pretty sure I will come across a few though so no doubt...
