Hi All My 300TDi Defender starts okay, a small puff of dark smoke usually comes out (nothing major). I live on a hill and if I drive down the hill, from cold, and lift off the accelerator towards the bottom for engine breaking a HUGE amount of white smoke bellows out the exhaust :frown: After...

I've been looking to sort out my seats. The drivers side cushion has collapsed on the back left bolster (pretty uncomfortable) and the passenger track has snapped at some point so its not very stable. The seats trims are tired and recover kits with new cushions + trims seem to be £70+ and the...

Hi All Quick question - I've been laning (with a second defender) a few times mid week and we have never come across someone heading the other way. We've done The Wayfarer and nearby lanes and I didn't see many places to pass an oncoming vehicle. Whats the "rules" around this? Do you...

Anyone watched this: Grand Theft Auto V: Official Gameplay Video - YouTube Looks like the red pick up might be loosely based on a 110 hi cap pick up! There's a quick shot of it early on, and a front shot starting about 2:29 Lights/bonnet/grill look like a cross between a series and a...

Does anyone know where to get a decent priced Widetrack Sankey? There's one on ebay now with a BIN of £450 which seems steep from what I've read online, but then I've contacted a MOD Sales site which reckon £650-£750 depending on condition and age. The sites where people have converted...

I recently changed by brake pads and discs on the front of my 95 300tdi. The calipers where the Lockheed type. After doing it I can hear a rubbing noise from the front which is louder when I corner. I thought at first it was just the new pads and discs rubbing, but due to the extra noise...

....Preparing for the onslaught.... Okay so I've tried searching and had little luck. One of the dampers on my 90 needs replacing and they all seem pretty gone - The ride quality in my 90 vs my dads 90 is quiet different. (He has HD springs with OME dampers). I'd like to try and improve...

I've been looking for an electric window kit for a while now and was watching a few on eBay whilst saving up...well, spending the money on more important things like my wedding(apparently!) Anywho. I saw a kit on eBay suddenly increase from £185 to £400...and a short while later another from...

Okay, so I've seen this done on minis and beetles, but has anyone ever created one for their defender - a chopped back end chassis with rear tub on and tow hitch front? Using the wonders of photoshop I've created the image below and would love to have a go at building it.....not sure what I'd...

Hi All. Just changed my clock out for a battery gauge on a 95 300TDi. Wanted to keep my eye on the battery and have a clock on the radio, so seemed like a good move! It was only done last night, in the dark! I used the green permanent live from the clock and earthed it across to the...

Whilst under my defender replacing the uj's I noticed both diff were leaking. I've been searching round and found how to replace the seal, but I'm struggling to confirm which seal is right Does anyone know if the is right: Range Rover Discovery Defender Freelander Diff Pinion Seal...

Hi all. I've got a rattle in my transmission. It occurs when I'm moving and lift off the accelerator and will go if I press the clutch. It sounds like a rattle/fast knocking. It's not there 100% of the time but seems to be getting more common. I've searched round and have found...

Hi I've recently (5 months ago) bought my first defender a '95 300tdi after my dad bought a '94 300tdi and I had a go...when I say I go, I basically left my 5 series on his driveway and robbed his defender for a month or so! So the BMW went and I headed down to Penzance (from the north...
