I've got the pump and turbo turned up on my 200tdi and it did make an improvement but want more now :D Whats the next step? Is there an up rated turbo/injector route that people go down? Or are these engines not that strong? I'm blaming the yanks! Have you seen what they do to them Cummins...

Fitted a range rover diff to my landy earlier, yes just the rear one for now, disconectted the front prop too as its got a habit of popping in to 4wd and I didn't have the time to do the front diff. What a difference! The gears don't run out after 40mph now :p It can sit on the motorway...

I've got a Series 3 with a 200tdi engine. The gear box is starting to be troublesome. Stiff in 1st, 2nd and reverse. Jumps out of 3rd on over run, noisey in 4th. Time to find a replacement! Anybody got a Series gear box I can atleast rebuild so I can just simply swap it out with my old...

A mate and myself want to do an expedition in my Series 3 land rover this year. We're not to sure on where at the moment. Been reading up on Morroco but wouldn't mind something out Russia way or even further north! Did consider staying in this country and just touring up through Scotland...

My speedo doesnt work so I've never been able to workout what my landys like on fuel. All I know is when it was a petrol 2.25 it would need topping up EVERY time I went out in it! Now its a 200tdi the fuel lasts forever! I now need to have a rough-ish figure to work out when I can do my...

When under my S3 today changing the front diff I noticed I've got a broken U bolt. It's the inner one on the drivers side. Had a look on Paddocks and it seems that theres 2 different types. Curved and Flat ones. Apparantly 3 of the U bolts for the front axle are curved and one is flat...

I've got some money to spend on the Land Rover. 70% of the stuff I drive on is mud like this... YouTube - land Rover Series 3 200tdi off road Would you go for Parabolic springs with the uprated shocks and have to modify the props (as I'm running 1 tonne shackles too) or would you go...

Does anybody here know if the 101 Landys use Series running gear, diffs, gear boxs etc etc or are they all unique parts to the 101s? I'm interested in one but am wanting to find out what would happen when I bust it. Will getting parts be difficult and expensive? Thanks, Adam

How many rubber gear box mounts does a sereis 3 have?

I've found a Series 3 in a scrap yard with over drive, I want the OD for my 200tdi series 3 :) What tools do I need and how do I go about getting it off in its entireity so it will just slot straight on to mine. Also anyone know what it alters the ratio to? Thanks, Adam

Made up my own side exit exhaust for my 200tdi powered series 3 this weekend. I'm happy with it :) YouTube - Land Rover Series 3 200tdi side exit exhaust YouTube - Land Rover Series 3 200tdi side exit exhaust :)

The standard heaters are pure **** :) I took out the motor and matrix to give me some more room when fitting the 200tdi engine, the air box is where the matrix/ blower motor used to be. Problem is winters hitting pretty fast now and I'm getting cold :p I've read a bit about them in car...

So we go from this.... To this... Looks a hell of alot better don't it :)

I've had enough of the piddly little half windows on my Series 3 and want to fit Defender doors with the full wind down windows. Is it just a case of bolting them on or do I need to swap bits over? Ad

I've got a 200tdi in my Series 3 and its a bit smokey. Its not oil smoke but black smoke. It does it with the air filter off so I don't think its a lack of air getting though to the engine. It also smokes a bit on idle. What could it be?

After being off the road for about 6 months I've got my Series 3 up and running with a full MOT :) Just before I blew the head gasket on the old 2.3 pug diesel engine that was in it, I was getting fed up with the lack of guts from the engine and lack of traction the tyres offered. I was...

I'm looking at fitting a slightly smaller steering wheel to my Series 3 so I can change direction quicker and get my arms like pop eyes. Does anybody know of a steering wheel thats cheap and easy to get that fits straight on?

I went to do an oil and filter on my 200tdi Series this evening but didn't have the right size socket. It looks to be about 24mm but wondered if anybody on here could tell me the exact size so I can pick up the right size socket. Cheers, Ad

Can somebody show me with a photo where the spill off pipe goes to on the injection pump please. I think I have a broken part Tar, Ad

Hey has anybody got any photos of how the alternator is usually/best mounted on a 200tdi when fitted in a Series 3? Hopefully will be able to fire the beast up tomorrow :) Tar, Ad
