Evening folks. Hoping you can point me in the right direction. I have an early 90s Defender 90 2.5. Two issues. When its early or late in the day, and it's a bit damp, I get a heck of a squeeling when I lift the clutch through the lower gears. Eventually goes away, and not during the day when...

Morning folks. My ex-RAF 90 is getting a tad rusty in the old belly area. Where we live these days I can't undertake doing the job myself, so I'm looking for a garage/dealer based in the north east of England (ideally close to South Shields) that anyone has used and would recommend for blasting...

Morning folks. I have a lovely H Reg ex-RAF 90. Basically, the whole underside is showing rather excessive signs of that lovely rust stuff. I waxoiled it myself a few years ago, and it looked lovely for 10 minutes, but it's all showing through again. Nothing serious, just not nice. Where I live...

Folks, I have an ex-RAF 90 and of course the two bulkhead sections at the wing mirrors are starting to rust badly. I am looking for some guidance as to the best pre-fabricated repair panels to go for. I have got a local body shop guy who is going to cut out the old and weld in the new, then I...

Afternoon folks. My beloved ex-RAF 90 has developed a wee Gremlin. All indicators and the hazard warning lights have stopped working. Had her for a good few years and no issues, just now when you move the stalk, no clicking, no dashboard display light, and no indicators working. Same for hazard...

Afternoon folks. I've got an ex-RAF 1987 90 2.5 diesel and the windscreen wiper blades have a bit of a mind of their own! 80% of the time they are fine, they sit kinda where they should and clear most of the screen. But then they have a wee mad moment and "clack" off the bottom of the...

OK, before we start, I know all the ones about they are all supposed to do that and it's just them marking their territory! I have an ex-RAF 2.5 litre diesel N/A 90 rag top and it loves to drip. The black oil I know is engine and is possibly from the sump gasket or the drain plug. I did put...

Hi guys, I have my ex-RAF 2.5 90 and there is a nice oily mess coming out of the centre of the rear nearside wheel hub. I'm going to order one of the the new black rubber caps, but a mate at work is telling me that 1. I don't need to actually take the wheel off, and that 2. there is just...

Hi guys I've got an ex-RAF 1987 2.5 diesel 90 and this morning on the way into work the exhaust decided to drop off. It's snapped just after (towards the rear) the large oval mid box. Don't know if a gum gum bandage is gonna quite do it. Got it held up with a nice wee bit of wire for the...

Hi guys, I've got an ex-RAF H reg 90 2.5 diesel. It runs lovely, but just recently I've noticed the clutch pedal seems a bit soft for the initial travel and then a bit spongy for the rest. Is this an indicator for something needing tightened or is something about to go? Cheers

I'm feeling really blonde this morning. Had my ex-mod Landy 90 in for it's MOT yesterday. Jumped in this morning and the rear fog lights are on, along with the orange warning light on the dash. Obviously from the guy testing it. And can I figure out how to turn the buggers off? Nah. Any guidance...

Another quick wee question guys, I'm after th sticker which goes on the right hand side of the dash of my ex-RAF 1991 C Reg 90 rag top. The one with the red and blue triangles for the heater controls. Been searching the sites and the ones I'm finding are daft price like £16. Any help would be...

Hi guys. I've got an ex-RAF 90, 1991 C Reg 2.5 litre diesel, manual gearbox. It's got a persistent very slight leak of red oil from the gearbox housing. It doesn't warrant stripping it down for major work etc, but my brother who lives out in Canada and used to be a mech in the REME said to stick...

Hi guys, looking for some advice. I've got a 91 ex-RAF defender 90, 2.5 diesel. She runs fantastic but I've got 2 very slight oil leaks underneath that are driving the wife mad with the marks on the blocking. I know I know, all Landies leak. The first one is a clear red oil, and the second is...

For Sale,

Hi guys. I've got an ex-RAF 90 rag top and I'm in the process of giving it a fresh lick of paint and generally doing it up. The tilt is in good condition but the rope laces running along the sides and down at the rear are getting a bit frayed. Been searching online to no avail for anywhere that...

Hi guys, recently got myself an ex-RAF 90 soft top and wondering what's a good jack to buy for it. Cheers

Hi there. Recently got an ex RAF 90 rag top. Love it. Just noticed the temp gauge shoots right up to the top when driving about town but then whilst driving it'll drop down to normal position but then fluctuate back up. Sometimes it just sits steady where it should be I know we have had this...

Hi there, just bought my first Landy! An ex-RAF 90 soft top. It's on a 91 plate. Have sent off e-mails to the RAF/Royal Logisitic Corp to try and find out it's history. It seems to be a cracker. Having said that it developed a leak out the diesel tank so just spent the last 2 days forcing the...
