Anyone has any suggestions where I should start looking at first. When driving on the motorway between 55 to 70 mph when I take my foot off the accelerator a clunking/grinding mechanical noise appears. It immediately goes when putting the power back on. All seems normal otherwise. Only seems...

After nine years of a Defender ownership I have put my faithful 110 up for sale due to lack of use. It has served me well over the years, Each year during the winter it has got me up snowy lanes where even the snow plow couldn't get up to visit the mother in-law who was snowed in. Had a great...

What I can't understand is last time I had some advisories which I never addressed. This time I have some different ones. I have come to the conclusion that it must repair itself. Only three more years to go before its classified as a vintage vehicle here in France, then Its a MOT every five years.

Apparently from May next year new Controls come into force for the French M.O.T. Oil leaks will be a failure for the Control Technic. Guess there will be a few less Defenders on the road over here. Any one know if these stop oil leak fluids are any good?

Great start to the day. At 05:00 this morning I was awaken by one of my donkeys honking. The other donkey had got out of the field somehow. I was out there in my pajamas in the pouring rain trying to catch the bastard. Once I caught him he wouldn't move. Try pulling a stubborn male donkey on wet...

Just a thought. I have recently fitted a new heater matrix but the heating system still doesn't seem to heat the inside of the 110. Does it make any difference which way the the Matrix is plumbed in. There are two water pipes which come out of the heater into the engine block. Does it make any...

I have a 1990, 200 tdi Defender. Original. thought I would give it a treat and change the glow plugs. It starts on the button as always. Even when left standing for a couple of weeks in below zero temperatures, but I have notice if I don't let it tick over for a few seconds when I give it some...

No one seems to be planning any trips to places like Morocco or even Portugal. What's happen, or am I looking in the wrong place.
