I recently bought a 110 2005, did these come with immobilisers from factory? Mine has an alarm and immobiliser with the Lucus 2 fob, I’ve seen them on MGs and Rovers the same. What I want to do is get a second set of keys sorted. My 2001 90 doesn’t have any of this. I need to really know so I...

I recently bought a 110 2005, did these come with immobilisers from factory? Mine has an alarm and immobiliser with the Lucus 2 button fob, I’ve seen them on MGs and Rovers the same. What I want to do is get a second set of keys sorted. My 2001 90 doesn’t have any of this. I need to really know...

Nothing today, but I’ve just recently got my second defender, I already had a 2001 90 now I’ve just bought a 2005 110. Now problem with the new one I need a middle seat.

Hi all that's brilliant off comes the remains and I can get the brakes sorted. Thank you all for your help

Do they and just leave nothing there? I wasn't sure if not guard was an mot failure.

Hi I have an early 2.0 DI s reg freelander, it's been sitting so I've just started to sort out the front brakes, but the front disc guards have rotten away. I'm probably selling it soon so I don't want to spend that much money on it. Has anyone got a decent pair or know where I can get some...

Thanks that's reassuring, I'll get the oil done than I'll see, I run older vehicles and they all have there little issues, so it's easy to forget about one problem when another arises. Currently my Ford Focus has an engine on a pallet wait to be put in it, as the old one had a blocked oil...

Hi yes I've got filters a oil today, I'll get it done as soon as I have a minute, I noticed today it get much quiter when the tempature gets up to a third on the gauge that's where it tends to sit, but being quite cold it's taking longer to get there. But oil service will be my first job then I...

Hi yes, it clatters worse for the first 30 or so seconds of driving, but even when warmed up at slower speeds when you accelerate slower it still has that distinctive diesel noise which I think is a bit loader than it should be. I might be a bit paranoid what I'd like to do is hear another td5...

I think it's 5w40 oil as someone mentioned above, hopefully it improves it but I'm tempted to do the injector adjustments as well. But I need to find time and a decent spell of whether, thanks

Thanks for the info, I'll keep the number to enquire about injectors, if other things don't improve the noise. I plan to do a lot to the Land Rover but just want to sort the basics out first, thanks for your help.

Hi the oil does acually look a bit black and thin, I'll pop to my local garage and get some, I think that's the best place to start, thanks for your help.

Hi I had read they, but it gets quiter when warm, so I thought if that was the problem it would be the same all of the time, but I know they are prone to that do I will check, thanks for your help.

Hi yes I read something about the td5 clattering when cold due to having only 4 glow plugs, but I agree an oil change is the best thing to start with as I had no service history with it so I have now idea when it was last done. But if it did happen to be injectors,do you know if secondhand one...

Hi all after owning my landrover defender TD5 a month or so I'm really liking it, but as I suppected owning a Land Rover would require me to invest some money on it. I got it quite cheap probably £2+ k cheaper than some are making but it has high mileage nearly 200k, but I am willing in the near...

Hi all sorry for the late replies, I've been so busy with work I haven't had time to delve any further yet. But looking on the photos above that's the sort of area but on a quick look mine doesn't look so bad,it seems to be on a double skinned area where panels meet, but I will have a much...

Hi it's quite hidden, I'm going to try and take the trim of this weekend and have a look, I'll add pics when I get time to look. I've just bought a rust product called vactan (meant to be good) I think it could be a handy product to have owning a Land Rover lol.

Hi all just having a look round my defender 90 today and noticed rust is forming just under the dash where there is some plastic trim near the door stop catch. It's happening both sides driver seems the worst, I haven't investigated to much but am hoping I can clean it up and get away with...

Hi the speak isn't very load, but is annoying so I will have a look, thanks for the advice about the direction to get the fan off. I think I'm going to be quite busy over the Christmas holiday I also have an engine to fit in my Ford Focus, blocked oil strainer ruined the engine. Thanks again

Hi again all, I'm now having problems find the correct rear UJs, mines a td5 defender 90 and I think they are different from earlier ones, I've been looking on eBay but it's not to clear which ones are correct. Can anyone please help? Thanks in advance.
