Hi guys, I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I've moved to an area, which gets a lot of snow (40cm dump regularly, 1m occasionaly), and last 15km of the roads is bad tarmac or gravel, deep in the sticks. I also tend to travel long drives for work (Slovenia to Sweden) several times per year. My relic...

Hi fellas, changing the DMF, clutch and roll pins on my 1995 DT manual on Monday. Anything else that should be done when I'm in there? Oil seals? Cheers, Crt

Well, after searching for a good second hand DMF i've found this one. It supposedly consists of TD5 clutch plate (some south african defenders had the same) and custom made flywheel. I'm tempted but a bit put off by the price, which is f**king steep for a piece of machined steel. So, has...

Hi, my rangie is in need of some new rubber. I've made my decision and ordered a set of GG AT2 in 235/70/16 (as i have the 7 inch wide rims), but the AT2 is not available any more in that size. I'm now facing next choices: GG AT2 225/75/16 XL, which is close to original diameter, just 1...

Yesterday i did a thing that i don't usually do to my range... i floored it in 3rd and 4th gear (manual of course) and my clutch slipped when the turbo kicked in at 2,200 RPM. It never did that, not fully loaded in 1st and 2nd, but i admit that i drive it like a granny :mil80: question...

Any of you fine gents (and laydees) have a spare right sunroof rail/guide/slider and are prepared to part for silly money and ship it to Slovenia? :D Mine just went, the slider part snapped in two between the riser and the part where cable connects to it. The sunroof opened and closed...

I know, it's a stupid question, but does your Range have a possibility to just flash high beam (driving lights) with a short pull on the stalk? On mine you can feel the two step stalk operation, but the first part of the movement does nothing, and the second step switches between high an low...

Hi, I'm thinking of fitting cruise control to a 1995 P38a DT. I reckon i would need a console switch, new steering wheel and unlock of the function in the BeCM. I already have a high line BeCM, but i really don't know if the steering wheel control cables would already be in place. Have i...

Hi, well, to make a long story short, clutch worked problem free until now. Two hours ago i was poking around the car and found out the rubber boot on the clutch slave cylinder was totally perished. Since it was the first time i ever saw the thing i played a bit, pushed the rod cca 1cm into...

When i turn the steering wheel when reversing slowly out of the drive, the steering wheel only goes to a certain point. Then, after reversing a little more, the steering wheel allows for few degrees more of turning. The steering arm to wheel ball-joints have been replaced. Tires are getting...

Hi, i'm having a bit of a ongoing problem with my rangie. First, both keys and fobs operated normally, they had fresh batteries 9 months ago and everything (well, not everything, it's a Range Rover afterall) was ok. At one point, 4 months ago, Key 1 gradually lost it's ability to...

Replaced wheels when doing discs and torqued all wheel nuts to specified 110 Nm. After about 100 km the car started to shake slightly, i expected another drivetrain issue discovered but found out left front wheel nuts were on the point of falling off the thread end. Retightened the nuts on all...

Hi there, In June I've changed right front wheel bearing due to pretty much f**ked condition. Tyres were balanced, runout of the tyres set. After 500 miles car started to judder when braking, and I've thought - warped disc (had the same on my late Mondeo, exactly same feeling). As it wasn't...

Hello guys (and ladies, if there are some), as this is my first post i reckon i should introduce myself. I'm a newish (2 months) owner of a '95 P38 DT Manual with 300k km on the clock. The beast was pretty well mantained mechanically (the owner actually kept changing oil at the stealers even at...
