My 2001 TD5 Defender's air conditioning fan turns on as soon as I switch on the ignition and keeps running even if I have the air condition off. And it only turns off about 5 seconds after the ignition has been turned off. I have this vehicle from new, originally the fan only worked with either...

So, My Defender 110 TD5 with 120,000 kms on the clock now, took longer than usual to start after being parked over night and it bothered me alot. So for no apparent reason I replaced the injector seals and washers successfully with genuine LR ones, This was around 2 years ago but the problem...

I found a wire resting on the bell housing of my car but couldn't find where it goes. I did remove the airbox and all to look properly but to no luck. Seems like it came out of a grip since it has the seal on it. Would anyone know where it goes? The color is pale white with a maroon stripe on...

I recently replaced the O rings and the injector seals on my td5 and I suspect that one or two are leaking since it takes longer to start and fuel pump gargles a little. The tight fit of the washers onto the injectors came as a surprise to me and I did scratch them a little while fitting...

My head lights are very weak, my top mounted 100w Hellas are pathetic and my wipers are slow.... Everything used to be fine some time ago and its getting worst with time. I have been told to clean out the earths on my vehicle. Where are these earths on the vehicle and how should I clean...

I have had the oil in the ecu for quite some time now but never got the time to fix it; I only drive it once in two months... today finally I opened it all up and I have a few questions... Please help. 1. Is my ecu the flashable NNN type? (pic enclosed) 2. How do I clean the red socket...

My 2001 Defender Tomb Raider has very poor headlights for quite some time now. It also came with 4 roof mounted Hella lights which are very weak now and are getting weaker with time. The top lights had a voltage sensitive switch in their circuit which kept them from working when the engine is...

Okay so after reading around I found that TD5s have two types of ecus ... The MSD and the NNN ones, out of curiosity I went out to check mine and what do I see... oil in the red socket. I bought the Defender new in 2002 and it now has 118k kms on the clock, I have always known that sooner or...

After a very long and high jump I did back in 2004 my Defender front wheels became severely negative cambered and then it broke the front crown and pinion in 2006 for no apparent reason and then another front crown and pinion in 2010, so now I like to think that its gonna keep doing that ever...

I have a Tomb Raider defender and it came with a 3 point black relay under the right seat beside the ecu...this relay became faulty and I removed it to get a new one and now I can't seem to find it. This relay is a 3 pin black relay that powers the main 4 pin yellow which powers the lights on...

My defender starts on the third or fourth crank in the mornings. Temperature is around 10 deg. celsius but I was in -12 around a week ago and it started the same way. I have already checked the glow plugs which are fine, I'm running 5w-30 fully synthetic oil and all the filters are new...

Hey guys! Theres a Garrett GT18V VTG turbo available to me. Its from a Mercedes 220 CDI OM611 DE22LA motor. I was considering of swapping the original GT2052 with this vtg turbo so that I can get rid of the lag! VTGs have a very wide ar ratio and are much more efficient than normal turbos...

I have 2001 TD5 110 with a disconnected egr and 105k kms on thge clock. Its has been blowing a lot of black smoke lately. Power seems to be reduced. The vehicles has always been well looked after and regularly serviced. Can this an injector problem? I first thought that it might be a MAF issue...

My 2001 TD5 defender feels weak and literally dies in third gear if there is even a tint bit of slope. It emits alot of black smoke and the fuel consumption is alot more than normal and all dis started only a few days back. Whats can be wrong? It has about 105000kms on the clock very well...

Hey guys! I have a 2002 110 defender TD5 which I bought new, the vehicles has always been looked after and regularly serviced. Its used to have a very smooth and soft engine note before but lately it has started to sound like a 300 tdi.. well not really but there is some other background...

Would some one know if the new 2.4 TDCI Puma defender 90 shares the chassis with 300/200 Defender 90? Or perhaps a series defender? Can the body and engine of a puma defender be bolted to a chassis from an older defender? Thanks guys!

Hey guys.. I need a front diff for my defender which is a 2001 Defender 110 TD5 crew cab. chassis # SALLDHF881A620758. Will a front diff from a DISCO 300TDI fit my defender TD5? The chassis of the disco is SALLJGM73VA739246. Im not sure what uear it is I found it at a dismantler and...

okay the half shafts on the rear diff had twisted splines on the diff ends but I was still using the vehicles since the shafts were not available here. I did some offroading the other day and my vehicle started producing these noises afterwards from the read diff. And when I pushed the car...

Hey guys! I've got this weird fault in my TD5 2001 Defender 110. The head lights along with parking lights dont work sometimes. If I park my car for sometime and when I come back and switch the lights on nothing happens. Not even the parking lights work. And if I leave the switch on they...
