    Mouldy Head Lining?

    Climbed in my Defender (110 SW) yesterday and noticed what looked liked brownish blemishes on the front headlining. At first I though they were dried water marks from muddy water after a greenlaning (with my window open) but the more I looked at them I realised they were a form of mould. They...

    Buying a FL2

    I have a friend who is thinking about buying a Freelander2 and has asked me for advice but I know absolutely nothing about them. I've read the few threads about buying a Freelander but most of the advice relates to buying older ones. The vehicle my mate has his eyes on still has a year's LR...

    Irritating little s@*t

    No, I'm not referring to Pikey. I have a problem with one of my rear lights on my Defender. When I put the side lights on, it works OK. When I brake, the brake lights come on. But when the side lights are on and I brake, both lights go out. I understand that typically this...

    Slipping Clutch

    TD5 110 SW. I noticed today whilst accelerating up a hill that my clutch was slipping. It stopped slipping when I eased off the throttle, but the signs are ominous. Before I book it in to a garage for what will inevitably be an expensive bit of work is there any other likely cause of a...

    Balancing wheels

    On my latest laning trip I managed to knock a few weights from my front wheels, leading to the inevitable 60 mph wobble. Simple enough I thought, just nip down to the local tyre depot. Yes, they said, we can balance your wheels, £7.04 a wheel. Then the fun started. Firstly, the "junior"...

    Pictures from Northern Laning trip.

    I haven't uploaded mine yet so sorry if this thread disappoints initially, but I thought it would be a good idea if all the piccies were loaded onto a single thread so they are much easier to view.

    Editing title in certain sections

    Would it be possible for the title be amended, by the OP only, for threads where items are offered For Sale or Wanted. This would allow "Now sold" or "Now Obtained" to be added to the thread title and save others reading through the thread before realising it wasn't necessary. In a similar...

    servicing my TD5 110

    Well my TD5 had done 6000 miles (plus a little bit) since I bought it, and its last service. So armed with my Haynes Manual, and having ordered a service kit from Craddocks, I set about tackling what should have been a simple job. Although, according to Haynes, it only needed an oil change...

    Lifting up a Land Rover

    For those of you who use a trolley jack to lift your landy, where do you position the jack? Under the diffs? Does the fact that the diffs are offset make the lift unstable? Or do you have to use one of these?

    Hideous or what?

    Personally I think the Series III is the iconic Land Rover even though I drive a TD5. However, despite how much I like the Series III, I cannot find anyway to like this

    Extra Heating in a Defender

    Travelling back from West Bay the other evening I got quite a bit of grief from the passenger side about the cabin heating, or lack of. Now I've seen the threads about Eberspachers & Webastos, but £800 seems a lot for auxiliary heating, even if if can warm up the engine as well. So has...

    Light connectors

    I want to add additional rear fog and reversing lights to my Td5 Land Rover. I have the lights (the round ones) but cannot find anyone who sells the plug/connectors to fit the lights. I have tried all the usual sources but none seem to do them. Has anyone any suggestions for a possible...

    Engine Oil Replacement

    I went to replace the engine oil on my 110 TD5 this morning. It's the first change due since I bought it. Anyway, having crawled under the front, instead of a sump and drain plug I found a plastic sump shield (too flimsy to call it a guard) running from the front bumper to just in front of...

    Swivel pin housings

    I was under the front of my vehicle (2004 TD5 110sw) this afternoon when I noticed that one of the swivel housings was clean shiny & smooth, but the bottom half of the other was covered in a black grease. I presume the greasy one is because a seal has gone as it's not been like that before...

    windscreen for a Defender

    Is there no one in the far North (Britain, not England) who might help out this fellow member with suggested suppliers?. http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f20/question-germany-187657.html His time seems to be running out

    NAS Lights

    I've done a search but couldn't find an answer to this question. I'm thinking of replacing my rear lights (inidcator & tail light) with NAS lights to my TD5 110 and am not sure if I need to buy the plinths as well. Can anyone tell me whether they an essential part of the conversion or a "nice...

    Shutting doors

    Does any other Defender owner have problems with their doors not shutting properly in cold weather? Throughout the year my doors have closed OK, with only one rear passenger door needing a bit of adjustment as it wouldn't close properly without a very firm push. However, I've noticed this...
