My 300tdi starting making a knocking noise after driving it for about 1 minute. As it warmed up, the noise got louder and more distinct. It's a compression sound, definitely not metallic even though it's hard to tell in the video. Any ideas?

I have a 1995 Defender 110 (RHD) with 300tdi and I swapped the original 65A alternator for a 100A disco alternator about two months ago. There were no issues until one morning while warming the truck up for work, I noticed the B+ wire had come loose on the alternator while it was running. I was...

I was completing a routine alternator swap on my '95 Defender 110 when the lower mounting bolt sheared off. I've tried multiple methods from vice grips to welding a nut on the stump and none have worked. Before I remove the entire mounting bracket to try and drill it out, I thought I'd check...

I've had my 1995 Defender 110 (300tdi) for about 9 months and realized I should probably check the gearbox oil. However, the T55 plug was extremely tight and I have stripped it (in quite an impressive manner). I have tried bolt extractors as well as a punch to pound it counter-clockwise with...

Looking for a driver side back door OEM hinge (lower one) for my 1995 Defender 110. Does anyone happen to have one they would sell? The non-OEM hinges are cheap enough but quality doesn't cut it. If no one has a used OEM, I'll buy a new one but wanted to check first. Thanks! OZ

The center console base tunnel on my 1987 Ninety is dried out and cracking to pieces. Does anyone happen to have one available? Doesn't have to be brand new, just in decent condition. Thanks, OZ

The oil sump on my 1995 Defender 110 300tdi was leaking so I just removed it, cleaned, and reinstalled with a gasket sealant but realized that one of the 22 bolts is slightly longer than the others. Where does this one go?

I've been looking for some Defender doors and came across the following link on gumtree. https://www.gumtree.com/p/car-replacement-parts/land-rover-defender-90-110-series-style-2-piece-front-door-pair-top-bottom-kit-/1353744134 After discussions with the seller, he said he could provide a full...

The rear crossmember on my 1987 LR 90 has some rot and needs to be patched. I'm taking it to the garage on Tuesday for a price estimate and would appreciate your opinions on a realistic price range before I go. Thanks for your input!

After a search in the 19J section, I was unable to find an answer, so here goes. My 1987 LR 90 developed a coolant leak last week and I topped up the expansion tank. After driving it to work and back (4 miles), the expansion tank is bone dry. I traced the dripping coolant and the leak seems...

I just picked up my 1987 Land Rover 90 from the garage last week after they replaced the cylinder head and head gasket. The rocker cover and head were dry on the outside for the first couple days but I noticed today that it was damp like there has been some oil seepage from the HG. I’m not...

My 1987 Land Rover 90 with 19J engine just lost power after spewing black smoke from the exhaust for about a mile in stop and go traffic. Now I'm stranded in a parking lot and the engine is knocking hard with white exhaust. Anyone have any idea what the issue might be? I'm working on...

I just removed the starter motor after getting the infamous "click" on my 1987 LR 90. Lots of gunk built up inside. I'm curious if there is something else that I should be worried about due to this build up before installing the new starter today. Thoughts?

I have a 1987 Land Rover 90 and this part was hanging out of the front right wheel well this morning. It attaches to a cable that leads into the cab of the truck. Can anyone tell me what it is? Thanks

Hi everyone. I just moved to the UK a week ago from Oahu and just bought my dream truck (and my wife's), a Land Rover 90. I grew up working on older cars (and motorcycles) and certainly prefer the simplicity compared to today's cars that are smarter than I am! I already discovered a leaking...
