    TD5 vaccum solenoid question

    Spotted this loose vacuum hose in the engine bay and can't see where it should plug in. The hose in question is on the bottom of the solenoid. Vehicle is a 2001 Defender td5 Is suspect it is something to do with the EGR, but the vaccum hose on the end runs to that, while the other taps into...

    CV joint problem

    okay... "finished" rebuilding my front axle... it's an earlier style one with the bronze bush stub axle. Anyhow... come to fit the drive flanges and no amount of straining/pulling/levering will get the cv shaft far enough out to where I can get the shim and circlip on. I did not change the...

    What's it worth

    No idea about newer defenders, this is on behalf of a mate but he is asking what a 2002 Defender 90 is worth roughly with about 50,000 miles on the clock. I'm gonna assume a bit more than 50 quid ;) Cheers
