Hi All Driving home last night when the clutch pedal just went dead (no resistance/ no pressure and it was sudden... no sign of any issues beforehand). Anyway, pulled the slave cylinder out this morning and the rubber boot had come off and was still attached to the push rod!! Given the push rod...

Looking for a set (ideally x5 but would consider x4) 16" steel rims for my defender... must be able to take 265/75R16 tyres (I think that means they need to be a minimum 6.5" width). Not worried if they come with tyres or not as will be replacing with my own set. Thanks

Hi I have a set (x5) of freestyle Alloys (could do with a new coat of paint) fitted with Kumho Road Venture MTs 265/75R16 with approx. 8-10mm tread left on them. Ideally would like to swap for a set of wheels with ATs on them but open to offer them for a straight sale for a sensible price.

OK... have now got a lovely tapping sound coming from what seems to be the gearbox to add to my abnormally loud fuel pump (working on sorting that out)!! A little distressing as its disturbing my enjoyment of hearing the thud of insects hitting the windscreen on these beautiful summer days or...

Hi My 90 came with a 2" lift terrafirma kit already on it... Nothing wrong with it (in fact looks pretty new) but looking to take back to stock as I really don't need for the type of use it will be getting and want to improve the ride/handling on long road journeys to Scotland/ alps, etc.. Any...

OK... so when I brought my 90 TD5 a few months back, one of the things listed as recently being done was a replacement fuel pump (which would seem true given he hadn't connected the fuel lines back properly, which I discovered 3 weeks into owning it when I ****ed a tank full of fuel out down the...

Hi Have a TD5 90 that I picked up for me and my 12year daughter to work on. We already done loads of work on it, but still looking for the odd bits here and there... from adding something it needs to replacing something because its knackered or just not to our taste. So my question is: Is the...

Hi... So just looking for others views/ advice on what to do with my TD5 90's wheel/ tyre set-up. Brought it with a set of 16" freestyles (very poorly painted) and a set of Kumho MTs 265/75R16 already on. Nothing wrong with the wheels (other than the s**t paint job) or the tyres, just not my...

Looking for some updated advice on seats (seen a few post on here about them but mainly from a while back). I’m looking to replace my current seats (exmoor trim half/half heated) with some reclining bucket/ sports seat and not break the bank in the process. Also would like to avoid having to do...

After many months of using the site for the odd trips, etc as I dived into working on my 90... I’ve taken the plunge and registered. Just wanted to say hi and thanks to all of you who have already unknowingly helped me to date.
