Apologies up front, I know this one has been asked umpteen times before but............... I'm having a respray on the 110, doors being replaced so I thought might as well have the whole thing done. Not really wanting to keep the original red with white roof, I wanted to go for something a...

I may or may not be looking for a new deepender in the near future, when i say new i don't mean a brand spanker but newer than the one I've got now. The 110 is now about 16 years old and starting to look it unfortunately, I can foresee alot of patching required to the chassis soon, it's...

I had the s.l.s whipped off a couple of years ago on the 110, anyway the chap who whipped it off just cut the bolts. I'd really like to put it back on but for the life of me I cannot remember or for that matter find any information regarding the size of the required bolts. Is there by any...

Took the bumper off to give it a fresh coat of paint and some tlc yesterday, and whilst checking the dumb iron for any bad signs noticed that the nearside one has an elongated rotten patch on the side of it, I managed to push a decent sized hole into it with the handle end of the wire brush and...

Anybody got any links or info on where I can get some spring compressors from? Much obliged in advance.

Got one coming from the engine , I think I've narrowed it down to the turbo area but I'm not absolutely positive. It's only obvious at certain rev ranges, when I'm changing up or down, or peculiarly at around 30 mph in 4th, if the engine is having to work rather than coast. Any ideas or...

Recently had the engine out and put it back in again, however since it's been back in it's not been the same.Dead flat, foot down to the floor, nothing there, type o thing. So I had a quick inspect as you do, and the throttle lever thing didn't move all the way to the stop thing when the...

Typical schoolboy error, i was in such a rush when I disconnected it and now i've forgotten which wire goes where. i've got the lighter with a brass pin in the middle and a steel one on the outer side of it. I've got three wires one black, one green, one red and white. I know one is for the...

God knows I've tried but for some reason when I put clunking or knocking noise when slowing down with clutch dipped, or any variant of, I keep getting no matches.:mad: :confused: :mad: :confused:

Anybody got any ideas on what sort of boost starter thing is the best for my landy, i'm not that technical minded and it seems that there are shed loads of different sorts available and i don't know where to start.

Sounds daft I know but: you know the vent on the left hand wing top on a 200 tdi Defender, is it supposed to expel air when I've got the heater on full blast? the air still blows inside the cab and almost demists the windscreen as per usual, but I just thought what a waste of air when it could...

Just a quicky, if the brake lights on a td5 don't come on after depressing the pedal, and the fuse is still intact, surely that's not a short or bad earth ..is it? Any ideas what it's likely to be, and before you all ask I have done a fruitless search, strangely most of the threads I searched...

I have recently noticed the fan wobbling slightly and thought it might be an idea to replace the water pump before any serious damage sets in, there doesn't seem to be any leaking as yet. Anyway to cut a long story short, I've bought the new pump and was wondering how much time to put aside to...

Lately I have noticed when starting up early doors (we're talking 05.30) it almost seems to struggle slightly to actually start( 3- 4 rotations of the starter) I assumed that it was the cold start blues, glow plugs drawing power from the battery etc. So I have taken to using as few creature...

Between the new and old freelanders?

When I had the s.l.s unit removed from the 110 it would seem that the chap who took it off has retained two 8 inch ( I'm assuming they are 8 inch ) bolts that fasten it to the chassis. Has anyone got any idea where I can get hold of a new set, Do they have to be a special high tensile sort or...

Shockers are now fitted to the 110's rear and what a difference. Problem is I've been driving with shot shockers for so long I can't remember what it was like before they were knackered. Removed both and both were shot. Had a quick spin and it's unbelievable. In the words of Ashford and...

This can't be right it seems very cheap, I drive a '94 200 tdi 110 and need a pair of new rear shocks looked on paddocks gave them a bell and got this. RTC4639A 110in Rear shock absorber to WA159806 - Armstrong is that just the basic job, it just seems too cheap.

It's just that my mate is besotted with Discos, and he's seen a lovely TD5, I'm not that familiar myself with Discos but was wondering if he should stick with the TDI version or not. Purely from a maintenance , running cost, build quality etc point of view.

Think I may well have finally sorted the clunk on my 110. Recently removed the self leveling in an attempt to cure it but with no success. So the next step was to upgrade the springs and renew the top axle balljoint, or so I thought. Anyway , got it over the pit t'other day and I was...
