.....Just to add to all this, I have had a similar problem with my TD5 110. Finally got it started after following the instructions on here. (Many thanks people) But my fuel pump is still making a rather queer noise? Is this likely to be the bleed air return blocked, seems the most probable...

Nope. It's a fairly stock truck really, nothing much has changes since it came off the line. It's just done 80k and as far as I can tell, it's not had any major problems....

@Marmaduke Just the bushes really, tricky to do a visual but had a good old swing on them to check for any play. Trailing arms, radius arms, shocks and A-frame all seem fairly good. I know it's difficult to simulate road travel on a ramp but nothing obvious popped up. @Kwakerman I'm suspecting...

Hey folks, I've been trying to find a running order to track the transmission knocks you get in the Defender drivetrain. I have one that I am trying to diagnose, I've checked the obvious stuff and nothing presented itself. I can't reproduce the knock if I'm not driving it so it is making the...

Turned out to be pivot pins. Meaning a cv was bone dry! Ooops. :rolleyes:

Hi there, if I get a knocking/clunking on full lock does that mean I have a CV joint getting itself ready to fail or could it be that the steering is in need of adjustment? So many spanners, so little time......

.....airbox to Turbo hose collapsing at the air box end. Unfortunately, I didn't diagnose this myself as the old girl conked out on the motorway on the way to work this morning. :rolleyes: Oh well, hopefully all mended tomorrow. Thanks for your speedy replies, muchly appreciated!

Hi folks, can anyone direct me to some info on fault finding on the intake/Turbo hoses on the 19j engine? The issue I have is I am producing boost but as the pressure hits 0.25bar it's getting lost. Can I assume it is the waste gate that is jammed open? Or is it more likely to be a split in one...

As promised, in all it's, erm, unglory. Not too bad I don't think. Certainly not as bad as I first thought....

The garage used to be pretty good to be honest. I'm gonna go get it now and report back with a more exhaustive list! Cheers bud.

Karlos, I'll take some photos tonight and post them. I got the MOT done at Charlesworth Garage. I haven't used them for a while but just wanted to get it in and see what was what? Where does your mate do his welding, does he have a garage or does he do it from home? I don't think the job...

Hey folks, MOT time has come and gone and left me with a list as long as my sleeve (almost as long as my arm, but not quite). A major part thereof seems to be welding of various points on the chassis. Within 30cm of the rear body mounting and another bit on the rear cross-member. What I need is...

Thanks 19MART82 Jaguar | Land Rover spare parts at British Parts UK £36-ish. Now I know what I'm doing this weekend!

Hurrah! It would seem that I have a busted halfshaft. With each wheel lifted, one at a time, and the filler plug out of the Diff casing, I can see the diff rotating when I do the Drivers side but not the passenger side. Also, when I turn the prop by hand I can see the Diff moving. Result! Much...

19mart82 and discomania, go to the top of the class! I just had a thought before reading this, Honest ;-) and low and behold...... Front prop spinning away but no drive!! So, best case, broken halfshaft, worst case, knackered diff? Is there any way of pinning it down before I start taking it...

Thanks so much for your time guys, I had a go at it this afternoon..... And, after an hour spent spannering around, removing bits to get at the transfer box, I can see the linkages are all working as they should. Both difflocked ratios engage and drive is sent to the wheels. Both...

Hey guys, Noob here! I am having a few issues with a 1987 90td station waggon and hoped that one of you might be able to point me in the right direction? My transfer box is acting up. Basically I can engage 4WD low ratio, but all others are "unobtainable". Now, this might be something I'm doing...
