Hello all I’ve had an intermittent fault with our d4 for about a year now. Comes randomly maybe once a week and puts the car into restricted performance mode. I’m getting the code 1247 turbocharger boost pressure Low I have read online and the most common thing is the manifolds cracking so I...

The fluid does look very black, you reckon it’s worth draining it out and replacing fluid inc the res with the filter inside?

Hello Wondering if anyone has any suggestions before I remove the power steering pump. Tyres have good pressure, 40 psi in 20” wheels, belt still there and fluid full. Power steering is weak, better than when engine is off but still noticeably heavy steering constantly Any advice? Thanks

Where would the 2nd battery be located? Im wondering if over 24 hours or more, the voltage is dropping and it’s just bought to cause this.

Going back on what I said about my battery now which did test 12.5v standing, 14.4v charging and dropped as low as 10.5v when starting. Also, has a green light on to say good condition. it’s been stood for 2 days on the drive unlocked but I got in this morning and it said on the dash “low...

yes, forgot to mention battery fully tested and is fine

Hello I have a 2010 discovery and over the last few days the car alarm randomly goes off. I have read it could be a alarm cct board battery? Or possibly a faulty bonnet switch? I’m not getting anything on the dash saying bonnet open. Are there any common causes of this or can I tell the reason...

Hello I have what I can only describe as a clicking/knocking noise from the front right of the car. This is intermittent and seems to happen randomly on not quiet full lock at slow speeds. some times it’s just a slight noise but sometimes it sounds as if something is going to fall apart...

Yes, I can flash if my head lights are on already but if not, they won’t flash but the blue light on dash illuminates and the relay clicks. My thinking is, would the electronics of the car not allow it to flash if it thinks the headlight bulbs are blown?

Hello all hopefully just an easy one I press the button on the stalk and get nothing for washer jet spray? I have checked the fuse 38 for this behind glove box which is fine. The pump doesn’t even make a noise as I can’t hear anything? Is this a common issue or can I get to the pump without...

Still have this issue. Can anyone tell me, if the car thinks the headlights are blown or not connected on the diagnostics, would it allow me to flash my main beam?

Hello I have a strange fault on my 2010 d4. When I go to flash someone or turn my main beam on, it doesn’t work. The blue dash light does come on and I can hear a relay under bonnet clicking but no light. But, the main beam will work if I have my head lights on which. Says to me it’s not a fuse...

Hello I have an annoying squeak from the rear drivers side wheel. When moving slowly and braking to a halt, it squeaks. When I stand on the wheel and rock the car side to side is squeaks really loudly. Sounds as if it’s coming from the air suspension unit or in that area. I have sprayed all...

Right, just had this on the ramps and using the automated hydraulic thing that moves the wheels to look for play in bushes etc, could not see anything wrong. No play anywhere and all looks good :/ The power steering has just decided to stop working though but looked closely at all the linkage...

The steering is very tight almost as if the power steering doesn’t work :/ will try and get on a ramp to check Thanks

Hello I have a strange knock sound from the drivers side front wheel. It only happens when I brake hard and come to a stop, then when I go to move forward, I have a sort of single knock sound and then it’s fine. It’s almost as if something moves forwards on hard braking and then as u drive...

Just need to get this hose but not at the car. It’s the smaller hose from the filler to the tank approx 12-20mm ID. Just after the internal diameter so I can pick some up today. Thanks

The Gazebo idea would be ideal but looking at dimensions, I would not be able to open my door into it as it’s 2m off ground and I think the height of the gazebo enternace is 1.8m! Shame really as would be ideal

I’m thinking of a 2x2 gazebo now with sides, looks like I can reverse it right up and under it in one side. It won’t be sealed between the car and tent but should be a matter of seconds to erect and fold up nice. Can’t sleep in it but will seal from rain and wind. Any opinions?

hello Plan on using the defender for camping this year. Have converted the rear into a bed and storage with leasure battery and heating. I want an awning that I can quickly erect and also leave when driving away that comes of the rear of the defender. Ideally something not too expensive max...
