Thanks guys. Yes, we are 11 1/2 hours into 2016. May the year be kind to you all. PS. I can't wait for a rematch with the cricket.:rolleyes:

Thanks Marmaduke. I'll try that. I'm in a large city at present, so there's not many places I can legally get up to 80kmh or more. I've got a 1200km drive coming up next week, so I should be able check out your idea then......Scotty.

My 2003 Defender Tdi has developed a high pitched whine between 80-100kmh which seems to be coming from the engine compartment area. I live in a fairly remote region of Victoria in Australia, so unfortunately there are no Landrover specialists under 130kms away. All other mechanics see...

I too, have been advised to install the solid flywheel on my TD5 Defender when my clutch & thrust bearing is replaced in the very near future. After reading this post & replies, i'm now a bit confused. Is the DMF kit much more expensive?...Scotty.

Hi, I had the same problem with my '02 Defender. A dodgy mechanic I was using told me the ABS/TC Modulator needed replacing, which he did at a cost to me of $3500 AUD. I've since found that the probable cause was most likely just a bit of grit in one of the sensors. It's happened a couple of...

Hi Nick. Re your ABS & TC warning light. Make sure you have advice from a mechanic that knows what he's talking about before you outlay money for repairs. A mechanic told me i'd have to replace the ABS & TC modulator on my 2002 Defender at a cost of $3200 Aust dollars. I paid the money only to...

Hi all. I've recently replaced both my oil soaked injector & engine wiring looms in my 2002 Defender. At what miles/kilometres is it recommended to replace the injector loom to avoid oil reaching the engine loom again?...Regards Scotty.

Thanks. A lot of well reputed servos over here sell Alpine Diesel during winter. I assume it would have an additive that stops waxing....Rgds Scotty.

Hi Shifty. Just curios. What's the reason for running 10% petrol in your diesel during winter?

Thanks John. I'll check it out. Weather doesn't seem to be a factor. So I don't think it's a moisture problem...Rgds Scotty.

I recently replaced the airflow meter in my '02 Defender Td5. After suffering the usual symptoms of intermittent power loss. This seemed to fixed the problem considerably. However, I now get the occasional split second power loss at 90kph, (60mph). It only happens when holding at that speed. Not...

Thank you. I had a feeling that would be the case. I won't need to buy an airflow meter for awhile....Rgds Scotty

I've been told that the Airflow meter on my 2002 Td5 Defender cannot be cleaned, & HAS to be replaced with a new one. All I can see inside mine is 2 fine wire posts that I assume to be the sensors. I've put in a new one, but as I spend a lot of time travelling in dusty conditions, I thought I...

Had the same problem with my '02 model. Oil detected in the wiring loom. Replaced injector loom. Replaced engine loom. Replaced 2 suspect injectors. Fuel pump tested ok. Cost Au$3000 all up. No change. (Except to my mechanics bank account). I then changed the air flow meter. Except for an...
