Anyone have a nanocom near me for a TD5 disco? Alarm keeps going off and I have tried many things and its not stopping it. Ideally the problem can be found or the alarm deactivated. Thanks. Any day this week would be nice, sooner the better :D

Hi all, this is becoming quite a nuisance in the early hours - the alarm keeps going off. I have unplugged the one in the passenger wing, later to find out there is a backup in the rear behind all the interior panels with its own battery supply. I have just removed the fuse for the horn but...

Hi all, Slightly unusual question here - I am currently doing a project at university and I need to find out a few things about exhaust systems. I have had a good browse to try and get some data but I cant seem to find anything solid. Does anyone know what the kinds of pressures are within an...

Hi all, The 90 has its MOT this Friday - Buuuuut the fog light doesn't work....again.... I found an issue with the red cable coming up through the floor at the rear and decided to bypass the old wiring. So, running a new wire to the pos on the switch on the dash. but nothing - If I leave the...

So, I have been slaving away all day until now rebuilding my hub and swivel. Got all to fitting the stub shaft on etc when I decided to just see how the swivel joint was (swivel bearings all replaced with Timken ones etc) - to find it was virtually unmovable! I slackened the bolts off the...

Hi all, need to replace my CV / bearings etc as a seal failed and water got in. I have 10 spline front axle but not sure what Landy it is off. Fairly sure not Defender. It Looks like this Want to make sure I get the correct CV joint. Also, are the swivel housing bearings etc the same...

Filled up the cooling system today following the engine rebuild. Once water got to the pump it came pouring out the back. There looks to be 2 outlets on the rear of the pump. One is already blocked the other just let the coolant flow out. What should be here? If so can I get a part number...

As the title says, only way to stop the engine is to remove the wire to the pump solenoid. I have noticed that if you touch the spade to the terminal on the solenoid it has a slight spark even with the ignition off. Things I have tried: Removing wires from ignition barrel - still runs removed...

Hi all, REALLY need a dipstick for the 3.9 V8 engine, let me know! Cheers

Anyone have a part number or link for the plastic ends that go on the door lock barrels? Went to change the locks and the little end piece broke so cant put the lock back in. Cant find anything about them anywhere! Cheers

Hi all, almost got the rebuilt V8 ready to rumble. Just need a few things. Friend managed to lose the dipstick so will need a new one? Any idea of part number? Also need belts for this pre serp engine. Seem to have difficulty finding those too. So anyone know part numbers for belts for PAS...

So as some of you know I have been overheating problems with the 90. In case of an air lock I have drained the system and refilled / bled the system. After letting it run for a while, i turned it off and came back to it 20 mins later to take it for a drive. I turn the key, no glow plug lights...

Hi all - again I find my 200tdi overheating. I have flushed the radiator and now put in a genuine thermostat but still gets too hot. This time I coasted it home to prevent damaging the thermostat or anything else. I have bled the system to my knowledege. The bottom pipes get warm but the...

Hi all, I need to add an oil cooler to my Discovery project build - i see the lines come out of the back of the box, but my Questions are: 1. what size are the fittings (thread size) so I can get some 2. I see the pressure in these lines too much to use 'clamp on' hoses or do they need to...

Hi all just want to share some pics of my Ultra4 build. Being built for the Ultra4 Europe series, in the Unlimited class. I have based the vehicle on a discovery for some reason! But it's starting to take shape now and will be ready in a matter of months to race this year! here's the disco...

So, I need to buy some belts for the engine. It's a pre serp efi engine so can anyone tell me the number I need for the alternator belt? I keep finding only air con models but mine will not be running AC. Cheers :-)

So my friend is rebuilding my 3.9 efi engine and has found the engine to have no valve stem seals! The rebuild kit contains them but they do not suit the heads. I bought the rebuild kit which matched my engines block number so the compression ration was correct. I was told the engine was...

So as title suggests, it gets a bit warm on the motorway. Have towed in summer heavy and didn't have any issues started Sunday night. Got about 3/4 of the way on the dial. Water pump was changed within the last year and the head gasket was done a couple years ago. Doesn't seem to be using...

As we all know, the cease of production of the Defender is soon. Seemingly either this December but I have also heard it may be extended till February. In celebration to one of the greatest machines of all time, I suggest some sort of tribute on that day. For example a trip to Red Wharf...
